Savant

Savants win through knowledge, craft, and leverage. They are shaped in gnomish schools, workshops, courts, and markets, and they change the outcome of a scene before the first blow is struck. Ironwright Dwarves and gnomes of the Recovered Word often follow this Class.

A Savant can take six subclasses: three of their own and three shared with other Classes.

Class Feature

Know the Angle

Once per scene, after you succeed on a skill roll that is not an attack, choose one creature the roll involved: you or one ally gains +2 to the next roll against that creature before the end of the scene.

Subclasses

Academician

Savant

Path of the Scholar Path of the Mentor

Academicians are the keepers of knowledge and masters of learning. In ELDRA, they reshape the odds before the first die is rolled — the right fact at the right moment changes everything.

Craftsman

Savant

Path of the Forger Path of the Engineer

Craftsmen are builders, inventors, and creators who shape the world through skill and precision. In ELDRA, the Craftsman is the class that makes everything around them better — including other people’s equipment.

Face

Savant

Path of Charm Path of Fear

Faces are masters of presence, persuasion, and psychological dominance. In ELDRA, the Face is exceptional because their primary battlefield is not the dungeon floor but the minds of everyone around them.

Alchemist

SharedArcanistSavant

Path of the Brewer Path of the Bombardier

Alchemists are masters of potions, poisons, and transformative elixirs. In ELDRA, the Alchemist’s power comes not from a single dramatic moment but from preparation — the right concoction at the right time changes everything.

Commander

SharedGuardianSavant

Path of Tactics Path of Valor

Commanders are masters of battlefield control, directing allies with precision and authority. In ELDRA, the Commander is arguably the most powerful class in a full party — every ability multiplies the effectiveness of the people beside them.

Rogue

SharedSavantHunter

Path of Shadows Path of the Scoundrel

Masters of shadows, deception, and precision, Rogues slip through danger with ease, striking where it hurts most and vanishing before the enemy knows what hit them. In ELDRA, the Rogue’s power is leverage — they rewrite the conditions of every encounter in their favor.
