I have a Khurish character who is interested in going this route but I didn't know if they were going to to be mystics, sorcerers, or a prestige class.

I think he means Key of Destiny, Specter of Sorrows, and Price of Courage. They don't technically have an overreaching series title, but they are referred to as "Age of Mortals Campaign", or something to that effect.

I have a tendency to refer to anything coming in threes as a trilogy even though it could lead to confusion with the novels. I was just really suprised at looking back at Heroes of Hope and realizing that they really weren't saying what they were. I could infer that they were mystics since that boxed set is about mysticism, but the reference to them was more of a sideline rather than a example role.

However, I might just go ahead and write something up on the Seers as I did really like them when I was writing KoD and I get a kick out of going into depth on sideline things like that. *ponders* Lemme think it over a little bit & get back to you...

Christopher I am not necessarily looking to have a prestige class or anything made out of it. I was mostly wondering if they were divine or arcane spell casters. Like Kipper, I assumed that they were divine such as a cleric of Zivilyn.

How they would know a mystic fom a sorcerer I don't know but since they were around before the advent of sorcery and I doubt very much they were wizards I would make them clerics. During the Age of mortals it is possible that some would be mystics, but they might attribute their abilities as a blessing from the gods.
#10 cam_banks Mar 18, 2004 10:18:15	The Khur have a very different way of looking at the gods than some of the other regions on Krynn. It didn't really phase them too much when the gods left after the "Drowning", as they remained a fairly spiritual people (just without divine spellcasters). Again in the years following the Chaos War, the Khur people were not particularly bothered by the departure of the gods, considering it yet another trial to weather and suchlike. There's some hint that the seers inherited their gifts, that it's something one is born to. Whether this just means that their version of Zivilyn blesses them and that this same propensity made them good candidates for becoming mystics in the Age of Mortals is unclear. Mysticism doesn't cover divination, however - peeking into the River of Time was something sorcery handled in the Age of Mortals. Of course, with the subtle shifts in how mystics and sorcerers work under 3rd edition rules this distinction no longer necessarily holds any water. Cheers, Cam
