 //Forget whatever else you've heard. The only real difference between a cleric and a warlock is that one has an employer and the other has a sugar daddy.//
-A Theurge gains additional abilities in a flexible manner from a powerful, possibly supernatural source (such as a god, spirit, genius loci, devil, ancestral ghost, or whatever) in exchange for behaving in specific ways. A Theurge's patron of choice will have a tremendous effect on the way the class feels and plays. Creating a new patron is relatively easy, allowing the class to be customized to any setting- just run your ideas past the referee first.

-^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**In Thy Name:** You are devoted to a powerful supernatural being called a "patron" who grants you power in exchange for your worship and the furthering of its agenda. You have to pick a single patron when you take your first level in Theurge and can't change it later (at least not without a significant crisis of faith). Ask your referee what patrons are available; maybe they'll let you come up with your own if you want. Every patron has a portfolio, three observances, and a taboo.

A patron's boon allows you to temporarily gain the use of one class from their portfolio until the end of the current session. If you already have a level in a class granted by your patron, you can choose an advanced ability from that class instead if you want. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**One Boon Limit:** You can only have one boon active at a time, no matter how many times you fulfill your patron's observances. You can change which class/ability is granted by your boon every time you fulfill an observance. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Apostasy:** If you ever break your patron's taboo, you immediately lose any boon they granted you and cannot regain their favor again for the rest of the current session. If you broke taboo in a very deliberate or outrageous way (referee's call) you might lose the ability to ever call upon that patron again permanently. If this happens, it's time to go on a quest to either find atonement or to find a new patron. |

Purposefully and knowingly breaking taboo still earns their wrath as normal. |
