Anointed Warrior

Anointed Warriors enhance their martial prowess using the divine powers of celestial prayers and sacred alchemical mixtures. Some alchemists and spiritual mystics can have the recipes of such mixtures and texts of prayer, and they may teach anointed warriors their methods of anointing. Whether you found them in the ruins of a lost temple, learned them from a mystic, or met a celestial in person, you studied the art of anointing yourself, your equipment, and your allies as an anointed warrior.
