This page or section is incomplete, and will eventually be expanded with more information.


Hearts

Heart Containers: 1d8 per scion level
Heart Points at 1st Level: 8 + Constitution modifier
Heart Points at Higher Levels: 1d8 (or 5) + Constitution modifier per scion level after 1st. If your 1d8 roll lands on a 1, you can re-roll the die and use the higher result.

Proficiency

If scion is your first class, you have proficiency with the following. These proficiencies are in addition to any from your progenitor and proficiency points.

Armor: Light armor
Weapons: Simple weapons, rods; you can use Charisma as your casting ability with rods instead of Intelligence
Saving Throws: Constitution, Charisma

Proficiency Points

Option: Background
Legends of Hyrule doesn't have backgrounds under default rules. Proficiency points are meant to replace benefits provided by a traditional Background.
     If your campaign uses traditional Backgrounds, you gain no proficiency points, but instead are proficient in two skills of your choice from Arcana, Deception, History, Insight, Intimidation, Nature, Persuasion, and Religion. These proficiencies are in addition to any from your Background.

If your first class level is gained as a scion, you have a number of proficiency points equal to 5 + your Intelligence modifier. If your Intelligence modifier permanently increases, so too do your number of proficiency points. During character creation or during downtime, you can expend proficiency points to become proficient.

Retraining

Heroes don't always retain their skills forever.  Sometimes old methods are forgotten in favor of new means.  Each time you gain a level, you can forget up to 3 proficiency points' worth of benefits you gained with this feature.  Doing so lets you regain the points you invested.  You can then immediately invest these points into any other benefits in accordance with this feature, or save them to be assigned at later levels.

If you have multiple classes, you can only re-invest points in accordance with your first class.
