**Class Feats**
Domain Initiate

Emblazon Armament
Carefully etching a sacred image into her shield, Njinga steels herself for battle. She can spend 10 minutes emblazoning a symbol of Mazludeh upon a weapon or shield. The symbol doesn't fade until 1 year has passed, but if she Emblazons an Armament, any symbol she previously emblazoned, and any symbol already emblazoned on that item instantly disappears. The emblazoned item is a religious symbol of Mazludeh in addition to its normal purpose, and it gains another benefit determined by the type of item. The benefit applies only to followers of Mazludeh, but others can use the item normally
