The Hearts of War

Haruspices and surgeons of the dead can attest that years of battle and training can twist the body in subtle ways, most notably in the heart. Certain kinds of adventurers will even develop strange, signifying changes to that fleshy core of their being.

Infantry

Textured similar to chain mail, with a form that is resilient and almost protective in a way.

Cavalier

Swift and powerful, pumping the lifeblood perhaps a big too eagerly. It stops beating very soon after death.

Duelist

Beating in precise strokes, with a mildly dazzling sheen.

Berserker

Burgeoning with small blades of iron, gushing blood and beating excitedly for the next battle.

Blademaster

Growing in strange ways, taking an unfamiliar shape with thorns and sometimes even grasping tendrils.

Thief

Sometimes filled with little gold-like pellets, as though the heart of a thief is trying to turn itself into a kind of coin purse.

Assassin

Dark and sharp, shaped almost like a living blade. It seems to disappear somewhere every time you look away.

Hunter

Covered in patterns like leaves, and colored with a hint of dark forest green.

Guardian

Shaped slightly like a shield, there are stories of them turning aside the surgeon's blade.

Inquisitor

Slightly twisted and drained of color, healers who use magical means report difficulty with this kind of stubborn organ.

The Minds of Magic

It is no secret or mystery that magic warps the mind and body. But rarely does one shatter the skull of a dead mage and root around at the flesh within. Those who do will find strange things inside...

Dragoner

Beginning to grow scales, and burning like embers from between the folds.

Shrine maiden

Open and porcelain, it can hold a candle and allow it to burn indefinitely.

Necromancer

Pale and wet, it softly steams with smokey blue flame, especially if pierced or pressed.

Witch

A squirming, crawling thing with teeth and fur between the folds of its flesh, it will crawl away and escape if left alone.

Summoner

Full of holes, none of which lead where they should. It amplifies sound.

Illusionist

Mirrored and shining, it is heavy but cannot be touched as long as you can see it.

Druid

A fibrous mass of slowly growing plant matter. May be hard to remove, if the roots have spread into the skull.

Sorcerer

Shaped like a spiral, with traces of energy and fluids swirling around its folds.

Magician

A dazzling but fragile thing, its blood is flashing lights and its substance is mush.

Holy medium

Dry, brittle and pale, but with a soft glow. If water is poured through it, the water will be pure and clear.

Magic user brains can be used as Ingredients for Alchemy.
