Two guilds to explore
Two guilds that suit this race’s attributes. Their skills and abilities develop as you train.
Brownie Airpriest
Priests of Air
Heal injuries and keep companions fighting. Priests of Air combine restorative spells with the offensive power of their element.
Brownies are small, peaceful and friendly humanoids. They resemble small elves, but their hair is usually shorter and of brown colour, and their bright blue eyes resemble those of humans.
Brownies prefer to live in pastoral regions where they farm and harvest grain. Although peaceful and friendly, they are often somewhat suspicious of people from other, bigger races, themself only standing somewhat over half a meter high. Once you gain their trust, however, it is hard to find more helpful and loyal friends.
