This health, they say, is required for the Journey. Shamans, despite the augurious nature of their craft, are often powerful of build, as their craft requires them to be exceptionally healthy. When others talk and drink together, he observes the stars, the winds, and the movement of animals, the waves of the water, the sway of the grass, the weave of life itself. They may join a party that they feel allows them to commit to the Journey.Ĭharacteristics: Even when in a party, shamans tend to distance themselves from other members in order to contemplate their life-long quandary in silence and isolation. Before this time, however, Shamans travel the world high and low, and adventure on account of personal intuition. The most accomplished Shamans who stand the test of time and nature return to their tribes as an old man, to relegate their wisdom to the young. They do, however, live out a nomadic existence, as their spiritual journey often takes a lifetime. The ancient, primitive craft of shamanism rewards those who are true of character and commit themselves to the spiritual journey.Īdventure: Most Shamans are a reclusive breed, and therefore have little need to adventure. A gift of the gods, the trees, the water, the stone, the sun, the moon, beast and man are not to be treated lightly, and many have succumbed in their quest for this power. This knowledge of spells is not innate, nor does it come easy, and the investiture of spells is a process both rapturous and baleful. Their crafts are the direct result of deity worship and their personal devotion, placing their bodies in the hands of the Gods who in turn empower them with divine magic. Without regard for their own wellbeing do they follow their own path. Those few who would find it in them to become Shamans feel the pull of nature.
