Archon of Mystra[edit]

Wizard Subclass

Archons of Mystra also known as The Archons of Magic are mages who are direct follower of The Goddess of Magic, Mystra. They bear a Devine Stigma as per proof of their authority over magic. The stigma forms slowly over time as the wizard grows Stronger. The Archons are guided by The High One and The Patron of Wizards, Azuth and rarely through The Goddess Mystra herself. The guidance, often comes in the form of dreams or hallucinations. Archons are divine warriors who devote themselves for the preservation of magic and to punish the disrupters.

The number of Archons are limited and determined by Mystra herself. When an Archon Dies, his or her knowledge and fighting method transfer slowly to the next chosen one. Even small memories, resentment and emotions of the previous Archon may transfer to The new Archon. Such is the only process of becoming an Archon. Examples of ascension is given at the end of the page.

There are 4 types of Archons which you may choose or determine randomly using the list below.
