Lore Smith (3.5e Class)

Lore Smith

A warrior who creates their own divine weapon to smite foes in combat.

Making a Lore Smith

A Lore Smith is a warrior who uses what their class names says: Lore. By spending as much time as they can reading books of ancient texts, mainly of religious and traditional stories. By fusing their own weapons with the actual lore, they can create their own weapons, making them literal walking gods. However, the tolls of the mind on the Lore Smith usually causes them to be more anti-social.

Abilities: Lore Smith are very versatile. Due to this, their needed Abilities vary. Warrior Lore Smiths need Strength and Constitution for combat, and Intelligence and Wisdom for the later levels. Rangers and Rogue based Lore Smiths require Dexterity, as well as Intelligence and Wisdom for the same reason Warriors do. Magic based Lore Smiths require Intelligence and Wisdom, and need Constitution for Concentration checks, and dexterity for their Armor Class

Races: Any race can become a Lore Smith, but mainly races with a vast amount of lore and gods tend to become Lore Smiths, mainly due to the wider variety of weapons to pick from.

Alignment: Lore Smiths tend to be any Alignment, but tent to be the Alignment of the god of the weapon they have taken, but all Lore Smiths must have a Deity of some kind.

Starting Gold: 4d6×10 gp .

Starting Age: Moderate.

Class Features

All of the following are class features of the Lore Smith.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: The Lore Smith is proficient with light and medium armor, and all small and medium shields. However, they are not proficient with any weapons until they pick their Weapon Specialization.

Oath of the Gods: In order to be a Lore Smith, a person must make a pact to use the power that the God has bestowed upon them wisely, and to never tarnish the God's name via their actions. However, due to the loose nature of the contract, it is only needed to promise the terms in the contract, not uphold them, as the Gods know how fickle and weak-minded mortals are.

Weapon Specialization: In order to cut back on the stress and time needed to train, a Lore Smith only chooses one weapon, and one weapon only to learn and train with. Once picked, they may not change their weapon. The Weapons for specialization are from the weapons listed below.

God's Weapon: The weapon that a Lore Smith picks is based off of their personal tastes. However, the weapon must be molded from a previous one. For example, to make a lance from lore, the Lore Smith must either purchase or create a fine lance of their own to draw and channel the powers. The available weapons are as followed, as well as what their true titles are.

All points must be used, and one weapon is a valid choice.

Devil Forged: The Lore Smith's weapon has been at their side for so long, they can do with it as they pleased. At 29th level, the Lore Smith can forsake their God and turn their weapon Evil. If this is done, they break their ties with their God and lose their God's Armor skill.

They tend to pray and offer sacrifice, be in incense, gold, fresh foods such as meats and fruits, or even warfare, a Lore Smith can be found at many of the religious centers of any town, or usually holding their own religious practices in private.

Other Classes: Lore Smiths tend to deal well with other classes of their same Alignment, meaning Lawful Good Lore Smiths have a better bond with any other class in the Lawful Alignment than the Chaotic alignment, but will continue to travel with them. They will, at first, be spiteful, if not mocking to any warrior they do not find worthy. Until they prove themselves in combat, a Lore Smith will not accept them as warriors. A Lore Smith will never talk foul about a fellow Cleric or Paladin who follows a fellow God, or a God of the same Alignment.

Combat: In Combat, Lore Smiths tend to stay in the fray for as long as they can, only escaping to gathering their breath or call upon Divine Intervention from their respective Gods. if this fails, they will be willing to lay their lives on the line for the god they worship.

Advancement: Lore Smiths tend to stay inside the Lore Smith class, and not Multiclass.

“	Powers such as mine are rare, expensive, and powerful. If you can give me a reason why you think you should see them, tell me now.	”
—Garnet Kurayami, Third Generation LanceSmith.

Daily Life: They tend to pray and offer sacrifice, be in incense, gold, fresh foods such as meats and fruits, or even warfare, a Lore Smith can be found at many of the religious centers of any town, or usually holding their own religious practices in private. Not all Lore Smiths are highly religious. Some Lore Smiths simply 'steal' the powers of the Gods.

Notables: Alais Kurayami: Mother of the Lore Smith society and master BastardSmith, a Lore Smith who uses Bastard and Greatswords to shatter and sunder foes. Lani Kurayami: Daughter of Alais Kurayami, and the one who gave Lore Smiths a name in the world. Creator of the Guild known as Heart of Kurayami (Heart of Darkness).
