Shamans Falling somewhere between mages and alchemists, shamans are mysterious individuals who specialize in spirit magic and the use of herbs to create various concoctions and medicines. Shamans take the role of spiritual leaders amongst secluded, or tribal communities and are most common amongst the Catur tribes of the southern deserts, although elven and human shamans are known to exist. Living secluded lives, shamans are quiet individuals who seek communion with nature and the spirits of animals. Each shaman has a totem creature who acts as a guardian spirit and can enable a shaman to see through the creature's eyes, from a distance. Although peaceful by nature, shamans are not to be underestimated, as they can cast powerful curses and attracting the ire of one, is a very bad and dangerous idea. There is no formal instruction for shamans, who transmit their knowledge orally, from master to apprentice, from one generation to the next. Heavily persecuted by the religious authorities of both human and elven civilizations, they tend to avoid cities and prefer to live in isolated locations.
