Willkommen to Nietzsche's favorite playtest, The Auspician's Handbook! I am Drop Dead Studio's newest writer and the proud papa of the newest sphere handbook.
Inside you will find content devoted to the Fate sphere, including:
- Archetypes for Inquisitor, Mageknight, Paladin, and Swashbuckler to manipulate luck and fate.
- A new type of talent, Motifs, that channel universal archetypes to tug at the warp and weft of destiny's tapestry.
- New Words and Consecrations to diversify your auspician's repertoire.
- New Feats, including the new Chance feat category.
- Two new monsters, the cù-sìth and the mau.
- Advice to DMs who want alignment to take a more prominent or less intrusive role in their Spheres of Power campaigns.
Please feel free to comment on the document or here. The more specific the comments the better because that way I can address them. "This is awesome!" is appreciated, but "This could be made better by X, Y, and Z" helps me make it better. I'll be reading every comment even if I'm not able to respond to them.
Oooh this is gonna be sweet.

You know it's time to get your eyes checked with you glance at "Auspician" and see "Australian". So Aussies are a PC class now?
For the Knight of Wands class feature does the range of twenty feet mean you can put it somewhere else or that it is centered on you and extends out twenty feet?
The Parzivalian Knight keeps Channel Energy but can't use it since they don't get Lay on Hands.
Inevitable's no longer have judgement so the pronouncement of doom deed will not work.
Preternatural Awareness is a lovely buff to the poor Swashbuckler. Very nice.

Minor update to Inevitable: I added a new 1st-level deed and changed the deed that referenced judgement.
Working on a replacement for Parzivalian knight's channel energy.

Update:
In response to a (just) savaging, I've completely revamped the Serendip. It is now a URogue archetype and rogues can select (chance) feats instead of rogue talents. Parzivalian knight also finally have something they can actually use instead of channel energy.
Good to have some free SOP Auspician playtestin' stuff out there. ;)

Moderate update time:
- Half the motifs have been written. Most give more interesting effects than numerical bonuses, and those that do give bonuses scale better.
- The inevitable now has a player-controlled means of regaining kismet and a couple deeds were fixed.
- Several issues in wording were fixed.
Next I will be adding magic item rules for motifs.
