Congratulations on reaching Tier 3!

Your characteristics, skills, and Enhancements gained in Tier 2 become the base to build your character in Tier 3. Tiers 1 to 3 are considered the base for your character. Choose your advances wisely.

-You have received a bonus to your stats for selecting the class Contract Worker: Lonely Barmaid. A bonus of +1 Has been added to each Stat, plus an additional +5 to RAD

-At the end of Tier 1, you gained bonuses for attaining Benchmarks with the following stats: DEX, INT, AGI, CHA, and RAD. You will gain upgrades to those abilities that have attained the Benchmark of 20 in the pair of stats associated with them.

(This is calculated after increases for class have been added.)

-Skills may advance to Rank 15 in Tier 3. Your current rank in skills and their experience total is kept, and you will build upon that.

-Characteristic skill ranks are reset to 0, similar to the start of tier 2. All permanent stat gains are now part of your tier 2 base. (Excludes magical items not permanently bound to you.)

-You may earn five ranks in each stat, similar to Tier 2. (10 if you raise the cap for each skill.) The experience cost to gain those points is, of course, increased. The caps on your skill ranks may be raised to 10 through the expenditure of Enhancement Points earned in Tier 3, similar to how you increase skill caps in Tier 2.

-When fighting creatures of Tier 2, you increase your avoidance by +20%. (30% for Tier 1)

-When fighting creatures of Tier 2, you increase your chance to hit with an attack by +20%. (30% for Tier 1)

-Attacking creatures over Tier 3 will likewise be more difficult.

-You will only receive experience for Tier 1 creatures in special cases such as massive hordes or specific events. They can still injure and kill you. (And won't that be embarrassing.) Tier 2 creatures will give far less experience than they used to, from 0% to 50%.

-Points of INT, CHA, or WIS will add 50 mana.

-Points of STR will add 50 stamina and 30 health.

-Points of CON will add 50 health and 30 stamina.

-The cost of some T1 and T2 Enhancements you did not earn will be increased to reflect the increased amount of Enhancement Points you will receive in Tier 3. Some of these skills may be removed from your list. Others will be added.

You will continue the role: The Lonely Barmaid

-As the Lonely Barmaid, you have the following normal quests to give out:

Rats in the Cellar 1: Clear the rats in the basement of the Lonely Lass tavern.

Rats in the Cellar 2: Investigate the BIG rats in the cellar and where they come from.

Dungeons Dark and Dangerous: Venture into a Dungeon and bring back proof of having killed one of the terrifying bosses that live there.

Wispy Cotton: Bits of Wispy Cotton float on the wind and land in the barony from who knows where? Collect six pieces of Wispy Cotton and take it to the seamstress.

Magical Mushrooms: Find the mushroom ring and bring back samples.

Saboteurs! Criminals and rogues are trying to damage the work at Rowan Keep. Find a group and kill them for a reward!

A visit to the Big City: Visit beautiful Gadobhra and have a picnic in the Beastwoods.

Rewards for these quests are set, and the money will not come from your personal account.

-Because you have assumed a Role, anyone trying to use an identification skill on your character will only receive general information about your role in the village. Creatures or Players of Tier 4 or higher with the Identification skill may be able to gain more information about you.

Your acceptance of your Fae Heritage and your new class have combined to make many changes. Some of your skills, spells, and abilities have been absorbed by similar skills or used to create more powerful abilities.

Dark sight, Magical Eyes, and Identification have combined into the Enhancement: Fae Sight

The Fae are inherently magical and can read the magical auras of people and things the way a mortal reads a book. As they mature, darkness becomes light shadows, and magic shines brighter.

Crippling Blow and Perfect Cuts have granted you access a new Enhancement: Crippling Strike. This skill increases the chance of doing extra damage with any attack. You retain the Butcher skill: Perfect Cuts.

Silent Step and Unnoticed have given you levels in the Shadow Assassin Enhancement: Shadow Skulker 2. Move silently and unseen as you suppress the perception of enemies.

You have lost the skills of Silent Step and Unnoticed.

Tools of the Trade is replaced by the Weapon skills: Dart/Shuriken (DEX), Knife Fighting (DEX), and Garrote (STR). Get practicing.

You have gained the skill: Stealth (AGI)

You have gained the skill: Climbing (AGI)

Assassin's Avoidance becomes Shadow Assassin's Avoidance, a similar skill which gives a bonus to evasion in low light.

You have gained access to select Enhancements from the Tavern Keeper, Priestess of Hermes, and Shadow Assassin lists. These will be available once you have met an Ancient Tavern Keeper, the God Hermes, and the Shadow Keeper.

You have gained +5 RAD, and the Aspect of Nature

The Cantrip: Bugs! is now a Fae Magic Spell. The insects created are larger and stranger.

The Cantrip: Suspend is now a Fae Magic Spell called Levitation.

The Cantrip: Façade is now a Fae Magic Spell called Minor Illusion.

The Spell: Frostblaze is now a Nature Spell.

The Cantrip: Consecration of Stone is now a Nature Spell.

The Cantrip: Ignite, is now a Fae Magic spell. The color of the flames started are up to you.

The Cantrip: Runic Burst is now a Fae Magic spell called Circle of Runes with expanded use

The Spell: Triage is now a Nature Spell

You have gained the spells from The Road of Shadows:

Shadow Step: Teleport to a nearby shadow, with a chance to be hidden based on your stealth and shadow skulking skills.

Shaded: Shadows wrap around you, enhancing certain spells and granting +20% to avoidance skills if the area is not in bright light.

Death of the Sun: Absorb the light from a large area, creating shadows. This is a very noticeable effect.

You have moved beyond the need for clumsy human magic from the wilds and the hedges. New knowledge sweeps away the old.

You have forgotten the Skills: Wild Magic, Hedge Magic, and the Cantrips: Severance of Vulnerabilities, Purification of Sealing, and Mage Blitz.

Bonuses for reaching Benchmarks.

At the end of Tier 1, you received bonuses for pairs of stats you had raised to 10 or higher. Each of those skills can now be improved if you have raised those same stats to 20 or more. Your Heritage may have an effect on these bonuses.

Magic and Light are your heritage. High CHA and RAD reward you with the Perk: Bright as the Sun, +500 Mana.

The Fae walk among mortals unseen, showing the face that suits them for a time. High CHA and INT have given you the ability of Glamour. Are you a dark-haired Lonely Barmaid? Or a sun-haired daughter of the Fae? Or something else?

Fairy magics do not need the clumsy gestures and shouted words of mortals. High DEX and CHA reward you with Subtle Casting. It takes a keen eye to see that you are casting a spell.

The natural grace of your heritage is augmented by your high AGI and CHR, bestowing upon you the Grace of the Elder Race. +20% to any avoidance skill, or a skill involving balance. Your posture and poise show in every move you make.

Quick minds and sharp eyes discern the truth. High RAD and INT give you the perk: Insight. You spot the lies others tell, and the more they talk, the more they reveal about themselves.

Those around you are blessed by the Healing Aura that you can project. Small wounds are healed and larger wounds are made smaller. Whenever an ally within 100' of you is injured, you may use Triage to heal 100 health and stop active bleeding. Cost: 50 mana.

Like all the Fae of Alfheimr, you can dance across the morning dew and race upon the snowflakes leaving no tracks. RAD and AGI give you the perk: Light Step. Rough ground, ice, slippery stone shingles, or a hallway covered in caltrops will not impede your step or slow you down. You are sure footed in the most extreme conditions.

Your nimble fingers and quick mind allow you to cast two spells in the time a mortal mage can cast one. When you cast a spell, you may double its effects, or targets by paying triple of the mana cost of a single spell. High DEX and INT reward you with Fast Casting.

It is nearly impossible to take a child of the Light Fae by surprise. When conflict begins, your high AGI and INT make you Alert, and allow you to react quicker than your foes. Your weapons will appear in your hands, and spells be ready to cast. You may attack before your opponent if you were not surprised or asleep.

High AGI and DEX grant you the perk: Skilled Acrobat. Your heritage gives you a supple body and perfect balance. You are skilled at tumbling, walking a tightrope, or swinging from a trapeze. If you have an evasive defense skill, it gains a 20% bonus.

TRIFECTA 2: As before, you have raised three stats to their benchmark and scored a Trifecta bonus!

The benefit of Trifecta is increased to +200 Mana, +200 Stamina, and +200 Health.

For raising Four stats to their benchmark, you are granted Fae Resistance.

Before, your thin blood made you resistant to charms and beguiling. Stronger now, you resist all harmful magics.

There is a 30% chance that a harmful spell does not affect you. If the spell causes you damage, you take 30% less. The exception to this is the spells crafted by those who hunt your kind. Be wary of the Inquisition.

Again, you have succeeded in raising five of your stats, ensuring you are noticed by powerful entities.

-The 5th Hidden Lord continues to be interested in you. They still hope you will attend one of the better Colleges of Magic when the mood takes you, but for now, they note your interest in Fae Magic and offer the secrets that will show you how to transform your collection of odd cantrips into proper spells.

-The Emperor on his yacht thinks of you often and wonders about your story.

-Evergreen, Goddess of Nature, knows when you call upon her power and is pleased

-The creature that became your adversary will strike against you soon.

-The God of War knows of your plan to supplant him in the Fortresses of the Legion. He grumbles about getting no respect. One of his captains overhears and plots against you to gain his favor.
