Virtuous in Spirit

Despite the dangers or real-life nightmares that everyone faces during the Lunar Age, some manage to maintain a stoic lucidity. This resilience can only come from one's ideals, one's own bonds or one's faith. Whether they are idealistic individuals, spiritual ascendants or simply self-confident, they place morality above everything. These Virtuous in Spirit are often acknowledged as authoritative and trustworthy figures and it is not uncommon for them to act as guides for fellow travelers or their families.

Features

FEATURE: EMISSARY OF SERENITY

Strangers immediately recognize your true virtuous nature. Your words are always listened with great attention, your opinion is always considered important, and everyone shows you respect and trusts that you know what the right thing to do is; however, when your opinion, words and advice are proved to be wrong and harmful to the community, the appeal of your personality diminishes, and that community will no longer have any respect for you.

Suggested Characteristics

A Virtuous in Spirit is always ready to act as a guide, advisor, or consultant. They tend to speak only when they know what they say to be true and take care to use the most appropriate words, situation, and interlocutor wise. They are usually driven to wander by their ideals and the will to work to oppose darkness. When they are in groups with other adventurers, they rarely tend to clash verbally with their companions, but when they feel that something is a matter of principle, they do not distance themselves from their ideals. Sometimes they may appear conceited, but the truth is that they are often right when they speak.
