Hekai

HEKAI (Sorcerer) For the most part, Hekai are walking, talking vessels of the power of the Divine. A god sometime in the past has granted their bloodline,  the ability to channel magic directly. For them, magic is as second nature as song, as they are among its greatest performers. Hekai manifest their ability To weave and invoke “words of power” at an early age, and even before they do, there is always something about them that betrays them as special — blessed by the gods. Hekai are almost universally striking in appearance, glorious to behold and possessed of a manner or mien that captivates (and often shames) the ordinary. The generally accepted view is that these souls are direct descendants of the gods themselves, accounting for their ability to work wonders. Some, however, are not so sure, and in quiet back rooms and ill-lit alleys, whispers tell of far more sinister origins for these “gifts.” To speak such things publicly is blasphemy, of course, and is liable to rouse the Hekai’s ire.
