===Campaign Information===

====Playing a Deva Champion====

'''Religion:''' Deva champions traditionally follow the teachings of the Many Handed God, but it is less worship of a deity as a cleric would and more the following of a philosophy as a monk.  Even then, following this deity is not required to achieve mastery of their teachings.

'''Other Classes:''' You fill the same thematic role as a monk, or even a priest, but your roll is that of a fighter.  Often, you are a multi-weapon fighter or a two-weapon fighter.

'''Combat:''' You are a strange maneuver user, as you have reasons not to always use maneuvers such as not wishing to lose any arms.  As a result deva champions may only have a few arms, using the rest of their stock to cycle through various maneuvers as needed.

'''Advancement:''' Classes friendly to maneuvers are good for this class.

====Deva Champions in the World====

'''Daily Life:''' While nothing prevents the class from doing what they wish, as a rule deva champions follow some manner of code or creed as a religious or spiritual practice.

'''Organizations:''' Few in number are the practitioners of the devatic arts, but sometimes one will gather a small number of students to carry on the traditions of their master.

'''NPC Reactions:''' A strange otherworldly mystic with multiple arms is bound to catch eyes, cause wonder, or sow fear.
