Additional Solitary Orders: The Orders of Healing, Fate and Madness

By their very nature, solitaries are more varied in focus and outlook than their divine brethren – clerics, paladins and templars. An order of solitaries may be small in number, or even cease to exist for a while. However, a few orders stand out, or repeatedly rise and fall with the times, such as the orders of healing, fate and madness.

The following are three additional orders for my solitary class, intended to more fully demonstrate the potential of the class.

New Proficiencies

Oracle

The character may cast commune once per day (instead of once per week). Additionally, the character may ask twice the normal number of questions.

Seer

When the character casts detection or divination spells, the spell effects are calculated as if he were two class levels higher than his actual level of experience. He may also conduct magical research into detection and divination as if he were two class levels higher than actual.
