By the authority vest in my by the Queen of the Realm, I now proclaim birth of a new class. Gather roun' and listen, as I relate the form and function of the said class.... Ok... I'm finished with the psuedo-harker.... Here is the class I said I would send... It could probably use some more work, so if you have any suggestions, let me know, and I will stare at them for awhile, before throwing them out.... nah... I might just consider some of them, if they real suggestions, not just flames.... Ok.. enough of an intro... here it is..... c Copywrited 1990 Stan Paszt =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= HEALER PURPOSE OF THE HEALER ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- A HEALER'S SOLE PURPOSE IN LIFE IS TO HEAL OTHERS AND PROLONG LIFE. A HEALER HAS SWORN ON OATH TO SERVE ANY BEINGS NEEDING HIS OR HER HELP, REGARDLESS OF RACE, CLASS, OR ALIGNMENT, FOR FAIR WAGES. ALL LIFE IS SACRED TO A HEALER. _____________________________________________________________________________ MANDATORY STATISTICS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- STRENGTH: NO GREATER THAN 16 ALIGNMENT: INTELLIGENCE: NO LESS THAN 16 LAWFUL GOOD WISDOM: NO LESS THAN 15 OR LAWFUL EVIL DEXTERITY: NO LESS THAN 17 (UPON REACHING 6th LEVEL) CONSTITUTION: NO LESS THAN 15 CHARISMA: NO LESS THAN 14 ARMOR: LEATHER ONLY COMELINESS: NO LESS THAN 12 WEAPONS: OPEN HANDS ONLY _____________________________________________________________________________ REQUIREMENTS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHARACTER MUST BE ELVEN (NO HALF-ELVEN) CHARACTER MUST BE AMBIDEXTROUS CHARACTER MUST HAVE REACHED 6th LEVEL AS A RANGER AND THEN A CLERIC AT THIS TIME CHARACTER MAY CHOOSE TO BECOME A 0 LEVEL HEALER. CHARACTER MUST SPEND 1 YEAR ALONE IN THE WILDERNESS STUDYING FOR EACH LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE GAINED. MAY NOT USE RODS, STAFFS,OR WANDS AT ANY TIME AFTER BECOMING A HEALER. _____________________________________________________________________________ TYPE OF ATTACKS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE HEALER STUDIES THE BODIES OF ALL LIVING THINGS, FINDING THE WAYS OF HEALING WITHIN THEM. THE NERVOUS SYSTEMS, THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEMS, THE GLANDS, AND ORGANS AND TISSUES OF THE BODIES. A HEALER THEN APPLIES THIS KNOWLEDGE TO SET BONES, CURE AILMENTS, DISEASES, WOUNDS, POISONS, AND OTHER MALADIES. _____________________________________________________________________________ SPECIAL ABILITIES ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEVITATION AT WILL-----UNLIMITED DURATION AND TIMES PER DAY 96 MOVEMENT INVISIBILITY AT WILL--UNLIMITED DURATION AND TIMES PER DAY _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ **HEALERS MAY NEVER STRIKE THE FIRST BLOW IN A CONFRONTATION. (i.e. THEY PERSONALLY MUST BE HIT BEFORE THEY CAN ATTACK.)** _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ THE HEALER CLASS GAINS EXPERIENCE ONLY THROUGH HEALING OTHERS,EXCEPT FOR THE ANTI-, OR EVIL, VARIETY OF THIS CLASS. THE AMOUNT OF EXPERIENCE GAINED IS DETERMINED BY A RANDOM ROLL ON THE TABLE OF DICE FOR THIS CLASS ONLY, THOUGH IF THE DUNGEON MASTER FEELS THAT THE INDIVIDUAL ACT CARRIED OUT TO PERFORM THE HEALING IN QUESTION IS OF GREAT DIFFICULTY, IMPORTANCE TO THE PARTY OR TO A PERSON OF GREAT IMPORTANCE TO THE DUNGEON HE MAY GRANT MORE POINTS. THE EVIL HALF OF THIS CLASS MAY ONLY GAIN EXPERIENCE THROUGH DOING DAMAGE TO OTHERS. ALL HEALERS MUST BE OF LAWFUL GOOD ALIGNMENT UNTIL THEY REACH SIXTH LEVEL AS A HEALER, THEN AT THIS POINT THEY MAY HAVE THEIR ALIGNMENT CHANGED TO LAWFUL EVIL ONLY,IF THEY CHOOSE, AND BECOME AN ANTI-HEALER. THIS CLASS IS CONSIDERED TO BE ONE OF THE MOST HONORABLE CLASSES IN EXISTENCE, THEREFORE IF THE DUNGEON MASTER FEELS THAT THE PLAYER IS PLAYING THE CLASS OUT OF ALIGNMENT AT ANY TIME DURING THE PLAY OF THE GAME, HE MAY STRIP A CHARACTER OF THIS CLASS AND RETURN HIM TO THE SPLIT CLASS RANGER/CLERIC AT THE LEVEL OF HIS PRESENT EXPERIENCE UPON ENTERING THE HEALER CLASS, AND NONE OF THE ACCUMULATED EXPERIENCE SINCE BECOMING A HEALER. A HEALER MAY NEVER RENTER THE CLASS AFTER BEING EJECTED FROM IT. A HEALER MAY NEVER STRIKE UNTIL PERSONALLY STRUCK. A HEALER WILL AT ALL TIMES ATTEMPT TO AVOID BEING HIT, WHILE TRYING AT HIS GREATEST ABILITY TO PREVENT ANY CONFRONTATION UNLESS IT IS A MATTER OF HONOR OR LAW THAT IS THE CAUSE. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- HEALERS EXPERIENCE/LEVEL DICE FOR LEVEL OF HEALER ACCUM.
