Eleanor (Nona) Rastaban was born in 4644 in the city of Storasta on the winter solstice. She had a series of birthmarks across her chest that resembled the constellation the Stair of Stars, which formed a line that pointed toward the North Star, Cynosure, thought to be the home of the Goddess Desna. At the time, the auroras seemed to be concentrated along the Stair, giving it a rainbow hue. The winter solstice being one of the two holiest days for the Sarkorans, this was viewed as an omen. Various oracles pronounced different opinions about the significance of the birth, some seeing it as a sign the child would lead the remnants of lost Sarkoris to victory over the demon armies while others said it foretold the beginning of the end of the nation. Eleanor's father, Salmus Achyon, was one of the most respected religious leaders at the time. He protected his daughter from all expectations, telling the community to let her choose her path without the weight of speculation about her birth.

Those oracles who said Eleanor's birth portended disaster were vindicated six years later, when the demon armies descended on the city and sacked it, driving Salmus and his daughter from the city to become refugees, eventually ending up in Mendev. Prejudice and fear made the Sarkorans feel unwelcome in Mendev, so Salmus' clan traveled the region as a band of mercenaries, looking for a place to settle and hoping for news that the crusades had turned back the demons so they could return to Sarkoris.

As Eleanor was growing up, she proved to be quite capable as a shaman, having a particular affinity for the spirits of her ancestors. When she came of age, she married, had children, and served her community as a healer and diviner. Once she became a grandmother, she spent more time as an advisor to the mercenary band, eventually accompanying them on missions, aiding them in battle and healing them afterwards. She began to be seen as a leader.

Then things took a turn and she found herself in the thick of fights. She began to mature as a spellcaster and seer, as well as a savvy supporter of others in battle. Her spells became more powerful and effective. She and her coyote familiar were common sights in the midst of battle. Eventually, when other battle veterans fell, she became the leader of shrinking band of mercenaries.

Her group received a request to help the government of Taldan by crossing the border into Galt to defend an orphanage. It turned out the orphanage was hiding a sect of demon worshippers and the center of an attempt to open a second Worldwound. Nona had researched such things and suspected that the first Worldwound could have been stopped with a ritual that turned the energy that created the rift back on itself. She and her mercenaries entered the orphanage, fought past the demons and faced a powerful demon, a Vavakia. Against all odds, aided by some supernatural entity, the demon was killed, allowing entry into the rift that was just forming. A lilitu demon was presiding over a ritual that centered on a purple crystal. Nona and her band intimidated her into teleporting away and the remaining host of demons were too scared to attack without a more powerful ally. Nona advanced to the platform with the crystal and chanted the words of the ritual she had identified years before as a way to stop the rift as it was forming. The last act was to destroy the crystal. This was almost prevented the the arrival of a demon lord and some attendant mariliths. Despite this, the crystal was destroyed with the help of a Galtese named Cydric. Nona and two of her mercenaries, a cleric and a paladin, escaped before the rift closed. One of the mariliths lost its head when the rift closed around its neck.

Since then, Nona and her band have continued to battle demons and visiting Sarkorian ruins trying to locate artifacts and information that can allow the Worldwound to be closed. She arrived in Drezen once she learned it had been liberated and sought an audience with Irabeth to offer her aid.

It was about this time that she found an enchanted object at a ruined city at the border, just inside what had once been Sarkoris, now just the Worldwound. It was a beautiful silver headband with a butterfly motif over the forehead. She tested it with her knowledge of spells and magic and with the aid of magic and determined it was meant as an enhancement to the wearer's intellect. She communed with her ancestors and who said the item was created by an ancient sage of Sarkoris. When she put it on, after a day wearing it, her head filled with information about the geography of the land. Thereafter, she always seemed to know the lay of the land even if she had never traveled an area before.

In her youth, Nona was not a physically imposing figure, short statured, physically fit, but not especially strong or nimble. She was quite beautiful, with lustrous black hair, a pretty face, a comely figure, and light brown eyes. After raising a family and serving her people in various capacities, she developed white hair and a face still lovely but lined with age and wisdom. Her health declined after the normal aging process, but her mind remained sharp, wise, and charismatic. Through events associated with her mythic ascension as well as her shaman spirit, have resulted in her being physically as she was in her prime, but with an aged face. She is always accompanied by Zia, her coyote spirit familiar. She wears a magical breastplate, some magical jewelry and a belt that enhance her strength and intelligence. She carries a battle aspergillum filled with holy water, a morningstar, and a MWK heavy crossbow, but her primary melee weapon is a Sansetsukon, a three-section staff sometimes used by monks. This appears in her hands from nowhere and disappears again when no longer needed.

She has a cloak made out of a snow leopard pelt (cloak of resistance +2) and a loose dress made of deerskin, with fur lined boots. Small charms dangle from many places on her garments, along with a spell component pouch.

Class Skills
The Shaman's class skills are Craft (Int), Diplomacy (Cha), Fly (Dex), Handle Animal (Cha), Heal (Wis), Knowledge (nature) (Int), Knowledge (planes) (Int), Knowledge (religion) (Int), Profession (Wis), Ride (Dex), Spellcraft (Int), and Survival (Wis).
Skill Points at each Level: 4 + Int modifier.

Weapon and Armor Proficiencies: A shaman is proficient with all simple weapons, and with light and medium armor.

Spells: A shaman casts divine spells drawn from the shaman spell list. A shaman must choose and prepare her spells in advance.

To prepare or cast a spell, a shaman must have a Wisdom score equal to at least 10 + the spell’s level. The saving throw DC against a shaman’s spell is 10 + the spell’s level + the shaman’s Wisdom modifier.

Like other spellcasters, a shaman can cast only a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. Her base daily spell allotment is given on Table 1–9. In addition, she receives bonus spells per day if she has a high Wisdom score (see Table 1–3 in the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook).

Shamans commune with their spirit animals to prepare their spells. Each shaman must choose a time when she must spend 1 hour each day in quiet contemplation with her spirit animal to regain her daily allotment of spells. A shaman can prepare and cast any spell on the shaman spell list, provided that she can cast spells of that level, but she must choose which spells to prepare during her daily communion.

Orisons: Shamans can prepare a number of orisons, or 0-level spells, each day as noted on Table 1–9. These spells are cast like any other spell, but they are not expended when cast and may be used again.

Spirit (Su): A shaman forms a mystical bond with the spirits of the world. She forms a lasting bond with a single spirit (see Spirits on page 37), which grants a number of abilities and defines many of her other class features.

At 1st level, a shaman gains the spirit ability granted by her chosen spirit. She adds the spells granted by that spirit to the list of spells that she can cast using spirit magic. She also adds the hexes possessed by that spirit to the list of hexes that she can use with the hex and wandering hex class features.

At 8th level, the shaman gains the abilities listed in the greater version of her selected spirit. At 16th level, the shaman gains the abilities listed for the true version of her selected spirit.

If the shaman takes levels in another class that grants a mystery (such as the oracle), the spirit and mystery must match, even if that means one of them must change. Subject to GM discretion, the shaman can change her former mystery or spirit to make them conform.

Spirit Animal (Ex): At 1st level, a shaman forms a close bond with a spirit animal tied to her chosen spirit. This animal is her conduit to the spirit world, guiding her along the path to enlightenment. The animal also aids a shaman by granting her a special ability. See the Spirit Animal section on page 47.

A shaman must commune with her spirit animal each day to prepare her spells. While the spirit animal does not store the spells like a witch’s familiar does, the spirit animal serves as her conduit to divine power. If a shaman’s spirit animal is slain, she cannot prepare new spells or use her spirit magic class feature until the spirit animal is replaced.

Spirit Magic: A shaman can spontaneously cast a limited number of spells per day beyond those she prepared ahead of time. She has one spell slot per day of each shaman spell level she can cast, not including orisons. She can choose these spells from the list of spells granted by her spirits (see the spirit class feature and the wandering spirit class feature) at the time she casts them. She can enhance these spells using any metamagic feat that she knows, using up a higher-level spell slot as required by the feat and increasing the time to cast the spell (see Spontaneous Casting and Metamagic Feats on page 113 of the Core Rulebook).

Hex: A shaman learns a number of magical tricks, called hexes, which grant her powers or weaken foes. At 2nd level, a shaman learns one hex. At 4th, 8th, 10th, 12th, 16th, 18th, and 20th level, the shaman learns new hexes. A shaman can select from any of the following hexes or from any of the hexes listed in the description of her chosen spirit. A shaman cannot select a hex more than once unless noted otherwise.

Using a hex is a standard action that doesn’t provoke an attack of opportunity unless otherwise noted. The saving throw DC to resist a hex is equal to 10 + 1/2 the shaman’s level + the shaman’s Wisdom modifier.

Wandering Spirit (Su): At 4th level, a shaman can form a temporary bond with a spirit other than the one selected using her spirit class feature. She must make this selection each day when preparing her spells. While this feature is active, she gains the spirit ability granted by the spirit. She also adds the spells granted by that spirit to her list of spells that she can cast using spirit magic. She does not add the hexes from her wandering spirit to her list of hexes that she can choose from with the hex class feature. At 12th level, she gains the abilities listed in the greater version of her wandering spirit. At 20th level, she gains the ability listed in the true version of her wandering spirit.

Wandering Hex: At 6th level, a shaman can temporarily gain the use of one of the hexes possessed by either one of her spirits. She must make this selection each day when she prepares her spells. For the purposes of this ability, she can select any hex possessed by her spirit or wandering spirit. If she selects it from her wandering spirit, she loses the hex immediately if she bonds with another spirit, although she can then select a different hex to gain using this ability, from either her spirit or her new wandering spirit. At 14th level, a shaman can select two wandering hexes each day instead of one. This ability otherwise functions as the hex class feature.

A shaman that selects the ancestors spirit has wise eyes and thick white or silver hair. Fine wrinkles line the shaman’s face, becoming more obvious when she smiles or glowers. When she calls upon one of this spirit’s abilities, her hair glows as though lit from within, rustling of its own accord.

Spirit Magic Spells: unseen servant (1st), spiritual weapon (2nd), heroism (3rd), spiritual ally (4th), telekinesis (5th), greater heroism (6th), ethereal jaunt (7th), vision (8th), astral projection (9th)

Spirit Ability: A shaman who chooses the Ancestors spirit as her spirit or wandering spirit gains the following ability.
Ancestor's Council (Su): As a standard action the shaman can call upon her ancestors to provide advice and assistance to one ally within 30 feet. The ally gains a +2 bonus on any attack roll, saving throw, ability check, or skill check made before the beginning of the shaman’s next turn. The shaman can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + her Charisma bonus.

Greater Spirit Ability: A shaman who chooses the Ancestors spirit as her spirit or wandering spirit gains the following ability upon having access to the greater version of that spirit.

Ancestral Weapon (Su): As a standard action, the shaman can summon an appropriately-sized simple or martial weapon with a +1 enhancement bonus from her family’s history. She is always considered proficient with this weapon. At 15th level and 19th level, the weapon’s enhancement bonus increases by 1. At 11th level, the weapon gains the ghost touch weapon property. The shaman can use this ability for a number of minutes per day equal to her shaman level. This duration does not need to be consecutive, but it must be used in 1-minute increments. The weapon disappears 1 round after leaving the shaman’s grasp. Nona's ancestral weapon is a Sansetsukon, also called a three-section staff. This weapon is divided into three 2-footlong segments chained together, allowing the wielder greater flexibility than a normal staff and allowing the weapon to be swung rapidly to create a defensive block, wrap and catch weapons, or harness momentum via a whipping motion for powerful strikes.

2nd Level
Wisdom of the Ages (Su): The shaman can call upon her ancestors for lore and guidance. She can use her Wisdom modifier instead of her Intelligence modifier on all Intelligence-based skill checks. [This is a ancestors spirit hex.]

4th Level
Fortune (Su) (Advanced Class Guide pg. 36): The shaman grants a creature within 30 feet a bit of good luck for 1 round. The target can call upon this good luck once per round, allowing it to reroll any ability check, attack roll, saving throw, or skill check, taking the better result. The target creature must decide to use this ability before the first roll is made. At 8th and 16th levels, the duration of this hex increases by 1 round. Once a creature has benefited from the fortune hex, it cannot benefit from it again for 24 hours. [This is from the general Shaman hex list]

8th Level
Intimidating Display (Ex) (Heroes from the Fringe pg. 8): The shaman can call upon some of the majesty and power of dragons to cow her enemies. The shaman gains Dazzling Display as a bonus feat, even if she does not meet the prerequisites, and she can use it even when not wielding a weapon. [This is from the general shaman hex list]

10th Level
Ghost Blade (Su): The shaman can touch a creature to grant all of her weapons the ghost touch weapon property for a number of rounds equal to her Charisma bonus [4]. Once a creature has been the target of this ability, it cannot be the target of this ability again for 24 hours.

Path Marshal with Dual Path Hierophant
Basic Mythic Abilities
Ability Score: Upon reaching the 2nd mythic tier, an ability score of your choice permanently increases by 2 [Con]. At 4th, 6th, 8th, and 10th tiers, another ability score of your choice permanently increases by 2; this can be an ability score you’ve already increased or a different ability score.
Mythic Feat: Select one mythic feat or non-mythic feat as a bonus feat. You must qualify for this feat normally. You gain another mythic feat at 3rd tier, and again e every 2 tiers thereafter.
1st Tier: Duel Path (Hierophant), 3rd Tier: Mythic Spell Focus (Evocation)
Hard to Kill (Ex): Whenever you’re below 0 hit points, you automatically stabilize without needing to attempt a Constitution check. If you have an ability that allows you to act while below 0 hit points, you still lose hit points for taking actions, as specified by that ability. Bleed damage still causes you to lose hit points when below 0 hit points. In addition, you don’t die until your total number of negative hit points is equal to or greater than double your Constitution score. [Note: see Human Racial Ability Heart of the Wilderness for other changes to rules around going negative and stabilization rolls.]
Mythic Power (Su): (9 points) Mythic characters can draw upon a wellspring of power to accomplish amazing deeds and cheat fate. This power is used by a number of different abilities. Each day, you can expend an amount of mythic power equal to 3 plus double your mythic tier (5/day at 1st tier, 7/day at 2nd, etc.). This amount is your maximum amount of mythic power. If an ability allows you to regain uses of your mythic power, you can never have more than this amount.
Surge (Su): (1d6) You can call upon your mythic power to overcome difficult challenges. You can expend one use of mythic power to increase any d20 roll you just made by rolling 1d6 and adding it to the result. Using this ability is an immediate action taken after the result of the original roll is revealed. This can change the outcome of the roll. The bonus die gained by using this ability increases to 1d8 at 4th tier, 1d10 at 7th tier, and 1d12 at 10th tier.
Amazing Initiative (Ex): At 2nd tier, you gain a bonus on initiative checks equal to your mythic tier. In addition, as a free action on your turn, you can expend one use of mythic power to take an additional standard action during that turn. This additional standard action can’t be used to cast a spell. You can’t gain an extra action in this way more than once per round.
Recuperation (Ex): At 3rd tier, you are restored to full hit points after 8 hours of rest so long as you aren’t dead. In addition, by expending one use of mythic power and resting for 1 hour, you regain a number of hit points equal to half your full hit points (up to a maximum of your full hit points) and regain the use of any class features that are limited to a certain number of uses per day (such as barbarian rage, bardic performance, spells per day, and so on). This rest is treated as 8 hours of sleep for such abilities. This rest doesn’t refresh uses of mythic power or any mythic abilities that are limited to a number of times per day.

Marshal/Hierophant (Dual Path: Marshal was the initial path chosen, with Hierophant options added.)
Bonus Hit Points: Whenever you gain a marshal tier, you gain 4 bonus hit points. These hit points stack with themselves, and don’t affect your overall Hit Dice or other statistics.
Marshal Features
As you gain tiers, you gain the following abilities.
Marshal’s Order: Select one of the following abilities. Once chosen, it can’t be changed.
Rally (Su): As a swift action, you can expend one use of mythic power to rally your allies. This gives you and each of your allies within 30 feet the option to reroll any one d20 roll after the roll is made. The granted reroll must be used before the beginning of your next turn, and the creature must take the result of the reroll, even if it is lower.
Hierophant Divine Surge: Select one of the following abilities. Once chosen, it can’t be changed.
Inspired Spell (Su): You can expend one use of mythic power to cast any one divine spell, treating your caster level as 2 levels higher. This spell must be on your divine spell list (or your domain or mystery spell list) and must be of a spell level that you can cast using that divine spellcasting class. If you are a spontaneous spellcaster, you don’t need to have the spell prepared, nor does it need to be on your list of spells known. Using this ability does not expend a prepared spell or available spell slot. You can apply any metamagic feats you know to this spell, but its total spell slot level must be a slot level you can normally cast.

Path Abilities (May be chosen from either Marshal or Hierophant Path ability lists)
1) Longevity (Su): (Universal) Upon taking this ability, you can no longer die from old age. If you have penalties to your physical ability scores due to aging, you no longer take those penalties. You still continue to age, and you gain all the benefits to your mental ability scores.
2) Menacing Presence (Su): (Marshal) Something about you puts others on edge. You can attempt an Intimidate check to inf luence a creature’s attitude as full-round action instead of it taking 1 minute. In combat, you can attempt an Intimidate check to demoralize an opponent as a move action. If you expend one use of mythic power, you can attempt to use Intimidate to demoralize all enemies within 30 feet as a standard action, or as a move action if using the Dazzling Display feat (Core Rulebook 120).
3) Confidence (Su): (Marshal) You can draw upon a deep reserve of confidence in times of need. You can call on confidence three times per day to use the surge mythic ability without expending one use of mythic power. You can select this ability up to three times. Each additional time you select it, you gain three additional uses of confidence per day.

Special Abilities
Alertness (Ex): While a familiar is within arm's reach, the master gains the Alertness feat.

Improved Evasion (Ex): When subjected to an attack that normally allows a Reflex saving throw for half damage, a familiar takes no damage if it makes a successful saving throw and half damage even if the saving throw fails.

Share Spells: The wizard may cast a spell with a target of “You” on his familiar (as a touch spell) instead of on himself. A wizard may cast spells on his familiar even if the spells do not normally affect creatures of the familiar's type (magical beast).

Empathic Link (Su): The master has an empathic link with his familiar to a 1 mile distance. The master can communicate empathically with the familiar, but cannot see through its eyes. Because of the link's limited nature, only general emotions can be shared. The master has the same connection to an item or place that his familiar does.

Deliver Touch Spells (Su): If the master is 3rd level or higher, a familiar can deliver touch spells for him. If the master and the familiar are in contact at the time the master casts a touch spell, he can designate his familiar as the “toucher.” The familiar can then deliver the touch spell just as the master would. As usual, if the master casts another spell before the touch is delivered, the touch spell dissipates.

Speak with Master (Ex): If the master is 5th level or higher, a familiar and the master can communicate verbally as if they were using a common language. Other creatures do not understand the communication without magical help.

Speak with Animals of Its Kind (Ex): If the master is 7th level or higher, a familiar can communicate with animals of approximately the same kind as itself (including dire varieties): bats with bats, cats with felines, hawks and owls and ravens with birds, lizards and snakes with reptiles, monkeys with other simians, rats with rodents, toads with amphibians, and weasels with ermines and minks. Such communication is limited by the Intelligence of the conversing creatures.
