The Librarian.
"Sir, terribly sorry, sir, but there seems to have been some kind of horrific beaurocratic error. Sir, I appear to have been assigned to a mission, sir, and, sir, sir, I'm really not built for it sir. I mean, sir, there's going to be all sorts of danger, sir, and heavy lifting..."
Having spent some time studying abroad the Librarian finally returns to the Hamlet. While she'd much rather settle down by the hearth with a good book she is often reluctantly dragged out adventuring by her friends and companions. At home among treatises, tales and legends, this humble student of knowledge seeks merely to cram as much valuable information into her skull as possible and keep it there. That being said her companions value her sage advice for all can benefit from the wisdom contained within old stories and folklore.
The book she bears is an evil tome full of forbidden lore. She keeps it close to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands. When asked what kind of hands are "wrong" she will respond "the irresponsible ones".
Combat skills:
At home among treatises, tales and legends, this humble student of knowledge seeks merely to cram as much valuable information into her skull as possible and keep it there.
Beat Back: Sometimes she gets stuck in front. In this sort of emergency she'll hit someone with a heavy book! With the correct trinket she can even scurry back to safety.
* Know Thy enemy: Having practically memories anatomy charts of both animals and humans, the Librarian has a good idea where an enemy's weak points are. The Guidance she offers to the party allows them to take down foes more effectively.
Forbidden Chant: With great effort (And no small cost to her sanity) the Librarian unleashes a wave of evil force from the book. This passes over all foes reducing their offensive capacity and, with the right trinket, it can even inflict blight as well.
* Peace of Mind: A single target stress removal skill with a nice little added bonus as well (*).
* Improvise Tactics: Drawing upon her knowledge of military tactics the Librarian hastily advises her companions how best to handle the current situation. This skill has anumber of different variable effects based on the actual conditions at the time of use.
* Tonics and Tinctures: Herbal remedies and minor hedge magic make up for a powerful curative although they work slowly. Harmful conditions will also be cured.
Clingy and Needy: Sometimes she just needs someone big and strong to hide behind. And that someone had better know how to look after themself (and if they don't know how to do that then she'll tell them). This experience can get pretty stressful 'though.
* A number of the Librarian's skills (marked with an Asterisk (*) above) add a stacking 5% Resolve XP bonus to the entire party. Every time one of these skills is used the bonus XP granted by the Librarian will increase by 5%. This is removed by camping so, when taking along a Librarian, the player has to decide whether they want to benefit from her camping skills or go without sleep for the extra XP.
Camping Skills:
Even those accustomed to soft feather beds must learn to survive in the wilds. In fact this gentle librarian appreciates the opportunity to settle down and focus, once more, on her studies. Although if truth be told she'll be grumbling about the rough cobbles or sleeping with a root in the small of her back come the morning.
Encourage, Pep Talk & Wound Care (everyone gets those).
A Good Story: A nice story helps the party to sleep safe and sound. It also keeps them in good spirits the morning afterwards.
Knowledge is Power: Forbidden knowledge grants her companions enhanced combat abilities but they pay the price for this unnerving lore in stress taken.
Soothing Chatter: Sitting down with one companion the Librarian plays "the Truth Room game". This is actually remarkably beneficial for the recipient and the little bookworm gets to benefit slightly as well.
A Riddle to Solve: Everyone loves riddels around the campfire. Those who solve them too quickly get some light relief. Those who take longer to come up with a solution benefit the most and those who fail grow frustrated and anxious.
