Lure of Secrets
Inquisitiveness and curiosity are desirable virtues in an individual, but knowledge can be put to malicious use and learned individuals can look down on others as ignorant fools. Secrets are dangerous, as the very desire of uncovering them may corrupt the heart.

CLASS FEATURES
-----------------------------
Hands of a Healer
You know how to treat wounds and illness and poison. You have a pool of healing tricks and techniques that replenishes when you take a shor t rest. You have one Healing Die (1d8) per level in the Scholar class. If you can touch a creature, you may expend one Healing Die per action, instantly granting them hit points equal to 1d8 plus your wisdom modifier, up to their maximum. If instead you tend the creature for at least 10 minutes, binding their wounds, treating them with herbs and poultices, and offering soothing words, then you may multiply the 1d8 by your proficiency modifier. Then add your Wisdom modifier.

Alternatively, you can spend a Healing Die to cure one disease, neutralize one poison, or remove one condition affecting a single target. Conditions are removed instantly, but poisons and diseases require the creature to take a long rest before they are removed.

The types of conditions you can cure are limited when you first gain this feature. You can remove the Frightened, Paralysed, Stunned, or Unconscious conditions. At higher levels you can cure other conditions, described below.

News from Afar
You know many things that are hidden from most and tidings of distant events tend to reach you with astonishing speed. The source of your knowledge is obscure and you do not explain how you know the things you do to others – it is enough that what you know is true. At the start of each adventur ing phase or after spending time in a Sanctuary, the Loremaster should inform you of one or two events of importance occurr ing somewhere in Wilderland.

Scholars always know a little bit about everything and the Loremaster should regularly give you rumours or information based on your appropriate Passive ability checks. For more clarity you can always make an active ability check to learn more about a person, place, or event. Once per Adventuring Phase you can add +5 to one of these active ability checks.

Tongues of Many Peoples
You know a little of many languages. You can hold a simple conversation in any of the tongues of Men or Elves, and know a few common phrases in the tongues of the other peoples – enough to offer a greeting, shout a warning, or insult someone.

The Path of Wisdom
At 2nd level choose either Medicine and one skill proficiency, or Medicine and proficiency with a herbalism kit. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability checks that use either of your choices. (Medicine, Perception)

Whenever you gain a new skill proficiency, you may move your doubled proficiency bonus to the new skill, to reflect your change of focus.

-----------------------------
VIRTUES
-----------------------------

Friendly and inquisitive

Since you started your adventures, you have realised that your folk’s custom of trading with foreigners on a regular basis may help you in your endeavours. You have per fected your ability to inquire about the doings of strangers without letting curiosity get the better of you, providing you with many safe opportunities to learn from those you meet along the way. And the road goes ever on...
You are proficient in Traditions and whenever you make an Intelligence (Traditions) ability check, you add double your proficiency bonus to the check, instead of the normal proficiency bonus. Additionally, the starting attitude of folks from other cultures towards you is adjusted to Friendly when you first interact with them during a social encounter.

--------------------------------
BACKGROUND - Seeker of the Lost
--------------------------------

Skill Proficiencies: Lore, Investigation

Feature: Dark Foreboding
While you have not found that which you seek, you have come across much lost lore concerning other issues. You know titbits of lore, hints of where lost kingdoms lie, ruins lay buried and relics have been discarded. When you hear about a new region or ruin for the first time, you probably know at least a bit of lore about it and where you can likely find even more information (such as a song known to minstrels of a particular region, an old book in a library in Rivendell, Goblin cave paintings in the Misty Mountains and so on).

Distinctive Quality: Curious
You have a natural curiosity, especially for things that are missing.

Specialty: Old Lore
In order to uncover something lost in the present you’ve had to do lots of research into the half-forgotten past.

Hope: "Any knowledge I gain to further my quest is worthwhile."

Despair: "I’m certain that when I find what I am looking for that it will be something that was better left alone."
