UncommonArchetypeDedicationSource Legends pg. 101Archetype Bright LionPrerequisites member of the Bright Lions; not a worshipper of
Walkena; trained in
StealthAccess Bright Lion background
You become trained in your choice of
Deception or
Diplomacy and in
Mzali Lore; if you were already trained, you become an expert instead. You incorporate enough worship of Walkena in your daily life to avoid suspicion. You typically don't need to
Lie or
Impersonate to pass yourself off as a worshipper of
Walkena. Against careful inspection, you gain a +4 circumstance bonus to Deception checks specifically to pass yourself off as a version of yourself faithful to Walkena.
Special You can't select another dedication feat until you have gained two other feats from the Bright Lion archetype.

You gain a tattoo that serves as a special ward to defend you against
Walkena's forces. The tattoo allows you to cast the
light cantrip as a divine innate spell at will. The cantrip is heightened to a spell level equal to half your level rounded up. If you die, the tattoo immediately casts
gentle repose on your corpse, heightened to the same spell level.

The
Old Sun Gods have granted you a gift in your fight against
Walkena. You gain the
sun's fury focus spell. If you don't already have one, you gain a focus pool of 1 Focus Point, which you can regain using the
Refocus activity to pray to the Old Sun Gods; if you already have a focus pool, increase the number of Focus Points in your focus pool by 1. Your Bright Lion focus spells are divine spells; when you gain this feat, if you aren't already, you become trained in divine spell attacks and spell DCs, using Charisma as your spellcasting ability score.

You are able to escape inquisitions involving divine magic, allowing you to blend in well in Mzali but also to avoid unwanted attention in other oppressive theocracies. You gain the
Slippery Secrets skill feat, and its benefits also apply against
divination effects that attempt to discern your deity. When using Slippery Secrets against a divine divination, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus, and on a critical success, the divination reveals false information appropriate to your false persona, rather than nothing.
