Empath Guild
Empath

Image copyright of Simutronics Corporation

Primary Skillset: Lore
Secondary Skillsets: Magic, Survival
Tertiary Skillsets: Weapon, Armor
Special Abilities: Heal, Shift, Link,
Manipulate
Mana Type: Life
Barbarian - Bard - Cleric - Commoner - Empath - Moon Mage

Necromancer - Paladin - Ranger - Thief - Trader - Warrior Mage

Empaths are highly attuned to other living creatures, allowing them to heal the wounds of others. Such powers have their drawbacks, however; since Empaths are so close to the pain of living beings around them, if they so much as try to harm another living creature they will lose their ability to heal for a time. If they kill, such ability can be lost forever.

This does not mean that Empaths are barred from combat. Many choose the path of the Battle Empath, with defensive skills and abilities often outstripping those of the adventurers they seek to heal.

Official Information

Guild crest: An open hand reaching out to provide comfort, a wreath of healing herbs resting in the palm

Skillsets and Common Races

An Empath's primary skillset is Lore. Survival and Magic are secondary skillsets, with Weapon and Armor as tertiaries.

According to the DragonRealms website, Empaths tend to be:

Human 27%
Elothean 24%
Prydean 11%
Elven 10%
Dwarven 7%
Gor'Tog 5%

Crafting Affiliation

As they are a lore-prime guild, Empaths may choose two crafting careers and one hobby.

Guilded Empaths receive two free technique slots in the Remedies discipline and one free technique slot in the Cooking discipline of the Alchemy skill.

See: Crafting

Guild Abilities

  • Touch - By simply touching a person, an Empath can form an empathic link with them that allows the Empath to diagnose the person's injuries with some precision. Besides wound transfer, several other Empath abilities (Shift, Link) require an active diagnostic link to be in place in order to function.
  • Transfer/Take - Allows an Empath to take the wounds, scars, and assorted injuries of other adventurers by transferring them to the Empath's body.
    • Wound Redirection - A more advanced form of taking wounds which allows the empath to change the destination of transferred wounds for five minutes.
    • Wound Reduction - Allows an Empath to automatically reduce the severity of wounds they transfer to themselves by up to half.
  • Link - More experienced Empaths can use their empathic links to others to access some of their knowledge, thereby increasing the Empath's skills for the duration of the link. This ability is taught by other Empaths and cannot be maintained in combat.
  • Perceive Health - Allows the Empath to detect the presence of others in the surrounding area by sensing their life energies, including health status such as poison, disease, or low vitality. As the Empath's skill increases, life energies can be detected farther and farther away.
    • Empaths may also use their perception to check if a creature is living, undead or a construct. See the PERCEIVE for more information and syntax.
  • Shift - Though considered a hush-hush skill by those in Elanthia, some Empaths possess the ability to alter the appearance of others permanently. It is considered a forbidden practice in all provinces in Kermoria except for Ilithi, as of 406 AV.
  • Manipulate - Those with sufficient skill can Manipulate a creature approaching them into believing that an Empath is a friend rather than an enemy. This is a powerful tool for Empaths choosing to enter hunting and battle areas.

Life Magic

Empaths have access to Life Mana and the following spellbooks: Healing, Protection, Body Purification, Mental Preparation and Life Force Manipulation.

Spell Slots

Spell slot progressions

The Empath spell tree requires 55 spell slots to master. Empaths earn 76 spell slots at 150 which leaves experienced Empaths plenty of room for Magic Techniques or Analogous Patterns spells. All magic guilds get a free magical feat at circle 2, and Empaths get Injured Casting as theirs.
