Court Historian

CREATURE -1

Amid the political machinations of the court stand the court historians, observing and recording events for future generations. Their loyalty is to the preservation of history, and they will defy even royalty in the name of truth.


The denizens of a noble court are the most powerful people in a civilization, primed with wealth, station, and authority above the common people.
