Avieron, namely aviero energy, is a form of life energy. It pervades the prospering nature, and it usually exists in the form of air(thus its name, “vie” & “aero”). Avieron is natural but magic-neutral. Avieronists can feel the ubiquitous presence of avieron and harness the power of it. They guide the flows of aviero energy through their bodies and thereby cultivate their intrinsic life energy. While their ultimate goal is to achieve a state of physical and mental wellbeing within, they do can use the power of Avieron to make a difference in the outside world. They can wield aviero energy both to heal and to kill.
Subclass: Aviero Blade
An Aviero Blade uses both his sword and his aviero power in battles. While sword dancing with a longsword in his main hand, an Aviero Blades left their offhands free so he can have better control over avieron.
Ideas:
Inspired by stinkstink’s Stoic class.
I plan to make an addon for this(in an aeon).
Aviero Blade is the combination of a sword artist and an avieronist. It is supposed to be a warrior wearing robe or light armor and wielding a one-hand sword, but capable of various aviero skills.
Aviero Blades use stamina and avieron(and possibly Equi) as their resources. They can use avieron to do a lot of things, but the resource tend to be cost fast. So they need to depend on the regeneration from Aviero Metabolism. In this case, fatigue penalty might seem a little more serious, so Aviero Blades are encouraged to wear light equipments.
The practice of avieronism is best to be performed on a solid basis. So avieronist need to lay the foundation since an early time. It requires some generic points to be spent early, and will produce little immediate result, but will turn out to be long-term rewarding and enable a brighter future. Spending too many points there can be overly taxing. So players need to find a balance between the profit of the present and of the future and make a choice.
It’s still a very rough idea. Some of the talents are included because I think they are interesting, but some other talents are for now merely poorly designed to fill in the blank. Also, I did terrible at naming and describing things.
