Bloodbreaker (Nakrian experience)
Posted on November 9, 2022 in Character-Experience Steel-Realms
The characters of the savage tribes of Nakria have many options, including their own form of berserkers who worship the Celestial Damon-amon-ta, and the true tribes of the south that have strong Merovin blood in them. The Bloodbreakers worship the fury, chaos, and might of the Star-Child Damon-amon-ta.

[Barbarian] Blood-Berserkers of Damon-amon-ta
Observances: Glory in battle! Glory in war! Success in war! Always escalate violence! Victory at any cost! (Only a powerful authority may counteract this last principle.)
These followers MUST all take the Soldier background, but instead of Gaming Kit, they have a Sacred War Paint kit they have proficiency in. Nakrian are all humans, the Blood Berserkers cannot be Merovin as their first level Feat must be Fighting Initiate (Must be ‘Dueling‘ for +2 damage). These follow the standard Barbarian path of the Berserker, but have the following benefits:
- DC 10 = +1 to charisma checks
- DC 12 = +2 Intimidation
If he has an amount of time = Short Rest, he can automatically decorate a number of individuals = Proficiency Bonus to get +2 Intimidation for 2 days (before the paint begins to smudge). Each character takes 2 uses.
- Augmented: DC 13 Intelligence (Religion); [2 uses when unarmored – full body] Calls down the skill of Damon-amon-ta: No penalty to initiative for the Khopesh for next encounter
- Augmented: DC 16 Intelligence (Religion); [4 uses when unarmored – full body] Calls down the onus of Damon-amon-ta: skill effect & +1 attack with the Khopesh for next encounter

Bezerkoi Nhakti (Nakrian experience)
Posted on July 28, 2021 in Character-Experience Steel-Realms
Nakria is ruled as a Empire when forces from without put pressure on it. Like anywhere else, geographical locations have different societies and cultural specifics, but the tribes can be summed up as 2 distinct paths for Nakrian Characters: Those who have succumbed to giving up the path, and Those who practice the nearly forgotten old ways and are trying to achieve a “Higher Order”. ONLY characters belonging to the later have access to becoming the Bezerkoi Nhakti. Warp Spasm
Bezerkoi must inhale the breath of a wild animal to awaken the Merovin related sparks within.
