Politics & Power (Political Classes)

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Power and Politics 
This book weaves together three character classes into a tapestry of politics and power. The buck, a noble-born soldier, relies on his family name as much as his rifle to assure victory for himself and his squadmates. The courtier plays at being the power behind the throne and specializes in providing support for his lord (a chosen ally) both on and off the battlefield. Finally, the sycophant is a powerful spellcaster whose abilities are derived from his service to another being whom he worships like a god. When used together, they allow a GM to run a more politically-minded game. In such a game, backgrounds are brought to the forefront and combat is married to story. Remember, sometimes it is not about who is killed but who will care if he is killed.

Included: 
The Buck Base Class 
A landed noble with a proper military training. He wields his influence as well as any sword and has a command of both firearms and martial weapons.

The Courtier Base Class 
Courtiers are the power behind the throne. They serve their lord (another player or NPC) and augment their already impressive skills. Powerful in their own right, courtier come from many walks of life and follow many paths (mundane and magical). However, the glue that binds them is their loyalty, cunning, and connections.

The Sycophant Inquisitor Archetype 
Sycophants, obsessive devotees of a charismatic leader, gain enhanced arcane might through their fervor. Eternal yes-men, they see their leaders as being able to do no wrong and fawn on their every word as if it were holy scripture. Sycophants lose a bit of their identities, choosing instead (consciously or unconsciously) to define their existences by their relationships to their leaders.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
