Dawnbringer
Dawnbringers believe that the glory of the dawn must be shared, but only those who are worthy can see it. The dawn is an enigmatic and obscure pseudo-religious belief in some future unifying event that will blend all of the worlds and realms into one. How this happens, and what it means is often open to all manner of interpretation. Texts on the dawn are obscure, and often covered in riddles; ancient writers on the topic seem too often be wracked with insanity. Nevertheless, dawnbringers seek to share their power with any they deem worthy - they empower their allies in all manner of ways. They are wandering spirits - adventurers by necessity; they are often not found in normal occupations throughout the kingdoms (or at least, not occupied in such a way that uses their talents).
