Reverent

Racial Limitation: Human - Meletian Culture

You are a member of the Reverent Army, the elite fighting force of Meletis. You are no ordinary hoplite, as you have been trained to understand the incredible power that arcane magic can bring to the battlefield.

Your experience provides you with a unique perspective on the battlefield. While most soldiers either know the blade or rely on their ability to use magic, you have been trained extensively in both arts. This gives you an important advantage. Not only do you have multiple options at your disposal in battle, but you also are more likely to understand the threats you face in combat as well. Your training always serves you well.
