Ergas Omund's page

Ergas was always proud of the work he did, deep in the underground corridors. While others dreamed of life beyond the dome, Ergas concerned himself with life below it. And that meant obsidian, and expansion. Two things only the miners could deliver. And to be a miner, Ergas was proud.

He apprenticed with the mining teams as soon as he came of age. As one of the youngest and most eager miners, he brought life to the depths of the tunnels. Emanating a pride in his work and a genuine joy in the digging. Years behind the pick and shovel hardened his muscles and sharpened his sense of discipline. Long hikes down isolated corridors keened his awareness of the earth. His mind began to fixate on a singular purpose. Dig Deeper.

Things changed one day when his crew was attacked by a pack of strange burrowing creatures who unearthed themselves directly upon the miners at work. Quick to respond and without hesitation, Ergas grabbed a pick in each hand and lunged into the fight along side the guardsmen. When it was all over, some were injured (Ergas included), but all made it out alive. Not doubt in part due to Ergas’s contribution. It was that day he realized to dig alone was not enough, that the strong had a responsibility. His work made him strong, and now he was ready to fight.

Ancestral Crystal (Sp): 1/day—memory crystal. The caster level for these effects is equal to the dwarf’s character level. This racial trait replaces defensive training and hatred.
Guardian Crystal (Sp):At 1st level, an ancestral steward gains a guardian crystal. An ancestral steward may use his Ancestral Crystal racial ability to attach this crystal to a weapon. This beautiful gem changes color to compliment any weapon it is attached to and moves about the item until it finds an esthetically pleasing position and then fuses with the item. Once attached, the guardian crystal may serve as a memory crystal. At 2nd level, an ancestral steward may perform a special ritual, (requiring 8 hours) during which the guardian crystal can absorb half the gold piece value (not to exceed the base price of a +1 magical bonus) of any magical weapon it is attached to as a part part of the ritual. For every four levels beyond 2nd, the magical bonus the maximum gold piece value absorbed is based on increases by 1 (see table).
If the guardian crystal has enough total value to enchant the item (per the magic item creation cost rules), it can add the magical properties of any weapon it has absorbed to the attached weapon. Once the crystal is attached the only way to unattach it is to destroy (ruin) the weapon it is currently affixed too.
This ability replaces Bravery.
