Saint

God’s Chosen

When one thinks of a Saint they usually imagine a God’s Chosen Saint. They are the most common of the Saints and are called directly by one or more Good Aligned deities that have been affiliated with Saints for millennia. If the calling is accepted, the symbol(s) of the god(s) appear on the Saint. These Saints take quests, defend the faithful, and tend to the domain(s) they are entrusted with. Unlike Clerics, once a God’s Chosen is called they become a power independent yet complimentary to the forces that called them. They retain their power as long as they do not become Fallen regardless of their relationship with higher powers. Their duty is to do good and take care of the domain(s) that they can influence.

God(s):

Only the will of a single god is required to extend the Holy Calling though multiple may join together to aid a Saint with a particularly challenging fate or obstacle. Roll 1D4 or discuss with your DM to determine how many gods joined to call upon you. For example a Saint with one god backing them may be destined to lead a fairly normal life of an adventurer and do a moderate amount of good. A Saint with two gods backing them may be involved with weighty power struggles or wars. A Saint with three gods backing them may be facing threats such as newly born dark gods or other dire threats. And the unlucky Saint backed by four gods may stand between the war between good and evil, destruction and salvation of an entire world.

The Chosen Gods:

Not all gods can extend a Holy Calling. The first requirement is that they must be Good Aligned and the second and most important is that their divine portfolio is in line with the nature of Saints. Here are the gods most suited to being able to choose a Saint and elevate them. While the examples provided are all goddesses, it would be appropriate to discuss with your DM to choose a god instead.

Lv 17

Stigmata of the Almighty

The Mark of the Almighty has appeared on you in the form of a scar on your face in the shape of the symbol of the god that called you. If multiple gods chose you their symbols appear in order of their claim on you from strongest to weakest claim; face, right shoulder, left shoulder, neck. When the Stigmata appears on you, you begin to doubt your Holy Calling as a trial all of God’s Chosen must someday bear. If you were chosen by 1 god you have a 1D8 penalty to WIS saving throws. If you were chosen by 2 gods you have a 1D8 penalty to WIS and CHA saving throws. If you were chosen by 3 gods you have a 1D8 penalty to WIS, CHA, and INT saving throws. If you were chosen by 4 gods you have a 1D8 penalty to all saving throws. You have a bonus to all damage from spells and attacks equal to twice the number of gods that called you.

You can use an action and choose a creature within 60 ft of you and each of your Stigmata(s) appear on them and they incur the same penalties to the specified saving throws you had. The Stigmata remains on the target until they die or after 1 hour passes in which it returns to you. You do not suffer the negative effects of the Stigmata while it is on another target. While your Stigmatat is on another target you have a bonus equal to your penalty to the specified saving throws.

Relic of the Almighty

Every Saint grows in power until a Relic of great power manifests itself to the Saint it is destined for. The powers of the Relic are unique to the Saint and cannot be used by any other unless the Saint has passed on and wills a successor to be able to wield it. The Relic of God’s Chosen takes the form of a Diadem with the symbol for each of the gods who called you embellished on it. While wearing the Diadem the wearer’s WIS score increases by 2 and their WIS score maximum becomes 24. In addition, the wearer has advantage on WIS saving throws.

The Relic has 3 Minor Properties that are divided between all Saints and God’s Chosen Saints. You can choose a combination of at least 1 Saint and 1 Saint property. Roll 1D8 God’s Chosen each time.
