Divine Artifacts / Trickets:
Tier: 2 Artifact
NAME: Champion's Decree
DESCRIPTION: A pendant of machanite with accompanying chain. On the center, an engraved blue shield with two dark red greatswords sprawl out, cutting off at the edges.
PASSIVE: Weapons wielded by the attuned can be used competently, despite prior training, reasonable size, or material. This does not confer focus for all weapons.
ABILITY: Once per day, the Attuned may issue a challenge to a foe of worthy merit, pulling the pendant free to throw to the ground. The attuned and challenged are locked in divine combat with lightning striking the ground and scorching the earth to mark a 5x5 arena. The challenged opponent may make an opposing soul+determination roll to resist the challenge, the arena failing to form on a success. While within the arena, no outside force can harm either combatant without a soul+determination check against the attuned's AOE DC being passed. This may also be done to attempt entering the arena, one time. All within the arena cannot leave until one of the two original combatants are incapacitated, yields in good faith, or 5 turns have elapsed at which point the arena disperses into a cloud of smoke.

AESTHETICS
Harmless arcs of red or blue lightning form between their fingers and/or around the hands in times of increased adrenaline or intense emotion.
Arms and/or armor upon their person appear as a dark steel, glinting red or blue hues. When they're struck or their weapons clash against another, some harmless arcs of lightning may flicker between the metals.
QUIRKS
Superficial wounds that would not require stitches seal over with a metallic sheen within five minutes, leaving scars or fading entirely, at the choice of the player.
In times of adrenaline (such as conflict or battle) they are able to lift up to 150lbs with ease for a limited period of time, such as hauling someone’s body from a place of danger or pulling something up that pins an ally down. This cannot be used in combat scenarios against another player.

Curses:
Matt feels phantom pains that mirror any injuries he inflicts upon a mortal foe. They hurt badly, enough to be clearly noticed, but do not pose any tangible impediment. If the injuries he inflicts are against an unarmed foe that is not fighting back, Matt suffers them physically and fully himself.

Current Offerings/Acts towards the Faith
TIER THREE
In order to first become tier three, the following requirements should be met;
Show extended worship, with two months OOC since achieving T2.
Achieved on 7/2/23
Describe the three most prominent relevant deeds they've done since their last rank up.
Entered the hellscape again, killing a General to retrieve a map leading to another location. During this encounter, he would go on to lose a friend dear to him, mourning the loss in a constructive way; killing the remaining hellspawn. [X]
Aided a small rift-raft group of adventures to clear out bandits in the sands. This aided the city and we were able to successfully avenge the lives of those lost. [X]
Chose to give up power and leadership of a Kingdom in pursuit of a greater purpose of ridding the world of demonic presence. (Attacking and starting his war against Dranoden) [X]
The character must have earnest and genuine faith to their Divine.
Adopting religion has changed his outlook on life. Striving to do better in day to day life, he realized that much of what he put up with were things that could no longer be. His clothing, his weapons, and his person is publicly made to be viewed as a Valiant blessed. He has introduced Valiant into all walks of his life, even going as far to put it to his credit of the war against demons.
Evidence of a more unique understanding and outlook towards their own faith.
While entrapped with Branko, he was forced to learn the value of strength. Because of this, his faith brings him the new beginning, the ability to have strength over all circumstances. He uses his faith not only as a tool to succeed, but as a method to succeed in his everyday life.
His relationship with Valiant is one that could be put to example of an Officer to his Enlisted men. As any good enlisted man, he will follow orders to the best he can manage and seek to do service proud.
Must show evidence in their log of teaching another something thematic to their Divine. (Hunting, Fighting, Dancing, etc)
Continued teaching of Leofwine dueling and proper ways of a knight. Dueling, honor, Valiant's tenets.
Must have at least five instances in their divine log where they have personally done something significant in the name of their faith separate to the event(s) above.
Assisted his allies in Queensport by delivering supplies, running into a band of Vyres along the way. Slaying one led to the ruining of several foodstuffs though. (He burst like a grape) [X]
Ventured into Nid Ararch on a more casual expedition with friends. Here, he was able to convince Laicelem to side with him on future missions against Dranoden in exchange for helping with the Twinned Horn in the future. [X]
After learning of the Golden Orders siding with Xandar in the current heated debates for power, he would reach out via divine word to request a meeting. In agreement for a diplomatic and peaceful meeting, Matt would proceed to share the entire truth and reasoning behind his actions, eventually leading to Leonhardts and the Golden Order siding with him. 5/31/23
Choosing to enter in the arena sport of New Sool, Matthias would go to win two of his matches, sparing both of his opponents to show mercy. Going on, he would witness the death of Erwin to the hands of an Emperor Scorpion, making plans to see his body and belongings cared for in Ashstadt [X]
Chose to assist Erwin in his efforts against the Basilisk Archfiend by providing a map found on an earlier expedition. This is in good faith, hoping they can make grounds as his group seeks an alternate fiend. [X]
Set out in hopes of following the tracks of an Inquisitor, seeking out a Lich in the nearby lands. There he would go on to fight hellish amounts of undead.[X]
Entered the hellscape, hoping to find a location to set up a temporary outpost. Cut off from his group and only returning when all were dead, he would go to kill the demon general and avenge his comrades. [X]
A second journey out to defeat more waves of Skraag undead, defending a fortified location. Finding an artifact of Sallana, he would after go on to speak with Podric about his current choices in regards to demonic persons. They would come to a conclusion that while he is not in the wrong, he may eventually find himself there. An agreement was made to seek Podric out if that may ever become the case. [X]
[To Guide Another]
Ultimately they must guide another into the rank of T1 and showcase at least ten ways they assisted doing so. This can be through lessons, discussions, or other ways you feel are significant in the journey of the student. They must reach T1 before you can apply for T3.
Leofwine
1. Constant dueling efforts to better ready him for hostile encounters
2. Preparing armor for Leofwine
3. Teaching him the last of the Tenets that Erwin had not gone over, even having comparisons made to real world situations.
4. Led him into the hellscape to besiege a fort, eventually leading to his first slain enemy with the assistance of Amelie. This would be an important day, signifying his start on the path of conflict.
5. Continued equipment provided outside of armor to give him the best possible chance in encounters
6. Discussion held in regards to the future war, agreeing to bring Leofwine with.
7. Agreement between the two for Matthias to formally be his teacher, guiding him along the path as far as he can teach.
8. A later training period to test the limits of both men's skill, eventually leading to important teaching moments.
9. Several hour long conversations about plans if one were to be blessed and how we would both like to help change the world for the better.
