Firemanes, also called Lights of the Lion's Mane, were specialty priests devoted to Nobanion, the King of Lions.[1]
Activities[]
The priests of Nobanion served as guardians against evil, particularly against Malar and his followers. They often served as judges or constables in smaller communities.[1]
Abilities[]
These priests were quite adept at tracking and surviving on their own in the wild. They were able to call upon a wide variety of feline companions through their summoning magic.[1]
Firemanes assuming a feline form, either as their natural form or via magic, were skilled in fighting with their natural weapons–i.e. their claws and teeth. They could execute brief periods of ferocious wild striking to overwhelm their opponents at the cost of a high expenditure of energy.[1]
Depending on their expertise, firemanes could cast the following spells once per day: lionheart, roar of the king, pride of Nobanion, and feline form. All firemanes eventally became immune to all forms of magical fear.[1]
Possessions[]
Firemanes typically carried a spear or any type of bludgeoning weapon. They preferred hide armor but were allowed to wear heavy forms of armor. They wore the symbol of Nobanion, an unblinking lion's eye, painted on their foreheads.[1]
