Features

Whisperers, slowly become attuned to their Wraith over the course of their journey, deepening the bond of their Pact.

Contract within the Song

At 1st level, Whisperers access the arcane, not through their own innate power or technical skill with the arcane, but rather through their Pact with their Wraith, a magical spirit tied to the Song.

Pacts can have differing dynamics across Contract pairs but hold three core concepts.

Virtues are boons granted by the Wraith, often cashed in for special bonuses, after gaining their favour. ^a48e03

Confessions are condensations of arcana, used as collateral when failing the Pact's terms. ^4796c5

Whenever the Pact's terms are failed without Confessions, the Pact becomes Severed, disabling the Whisperer's Tenet and cursing them with Status Tokens#Resonance -3, until the Pact is Mended. ^6c0df3

Mending Pacts requires a Camping#Long Rest and costs 7 RP.
