Hearts
Each level you gain in this class grants you a Heart Container (or a "Hit Die"), which is a d8. Heart Containers are used primarily during short rests to recover heart points.
If your first class level is gained as a scion, your maximum heart points increases by 8 + your Constitution modifier.
Anytime you otherwise gain a level in this class, you roll d8 (or take the median of 5), then add your Constitution modifier to that number. Your maximum heart points increases by an amount equal to the result.
If your Constitution modifier later increases, your maximum heart points will retroactively increase.
Proficiency Points
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 gain proficiencies.
- You can expend 1 proficiency point to become proficient with any artisan's tool, any musical instrument, water vehicles, land vehicles, or any language.
- You can expend 2 proficiency points to become proficient with any professional tool or in any skill from Arcana, Deception, History, Insight, Intimidation, Nature, Persuasion, and Religion.
- You can expend 3 proficiency points to become proficient in any other skill.
This feature assumes you do not have a background. If you do have a background, your number of proficiency points is reduced by 6, to a minimum of 0.
