Embodies conviction made manifest
The Hero is the living embodiment of conviction made manifest. They do not merely believe in something greater than themselves—they bind their entire being to it, letting that ideal shape every strike, every word, every sacrifice. Whether the cause is just or tragically misguided, the Hero’s power flows from an unshakeable commitment to what they hold as the highest good. This single-minded dedication can inspire entire nations… or lead them into ruin.
You gain an Ascendant Tag that names your chief value or ideal. You also gain access to the Blade of Ages Exalt as a Legendary Deed Option.
Let out a cry that echoes with your ideal. Erase all 1st and 2nd Severity Harm from allies within the current Scene.
Through sound and gesture, the Hero can grant one or more of their Criticals to an ally in the scene. When the Hero spends one Critical to use this benefit, they may bestow one or more of their remaining Criticals upon a single ally. That ally may use the granted Criticals at their next normal opportunity to spend a Critical.
