Fiendbreaking PilgrimBackgroundRare Source Spore War Player's Guide pg. 13Soon after the elves returned to stop
Treerazer's corruption of Kyonin, word spread across the globe, reaching the distant elven nation of Jinin in the heart of Tian Xia. No strangers to the fight against evil, a group of Jinin priests and oracles made a desperate pilgrimage across the world to join the fight against Tanglebriar. With them they brought one of their greatest treasures, the legendary staff
Fiendbreaker. Created by Jininsiel, founder of Jinin, to serve as a gift to aid the nation's neighbors in Tianjing against their own fiendish invasion,
Fiendbreaker's role in helping to defeat Tanglebriar's forces in that ancient war is well known.
Today, with Tanglebriar relatively contained, the need for powerful weapons like
Fiendbreaker may be lessened, but this treasured gift's legendary journey across the world is honored still by pilgrimages, during which a group of priests and worshippers from a wide range of faiths gather and carry
Fiendbreaker out from Kyonin and back again to honor that legacy. The goal of these journeys isn't to deliver the staff where it's needed. Instead, it's a journey of self- discovery, where the petitioners meditates on
Fiendbreaker, the legacy of its creator Jininsiel, and a promise among all pilgrims to stand against the demonic evil.
You have been on at least one of these pilgrimages, and the journey has touched you deeply. You focused your studies on Treerazer, his cult, and his methods, and your long hours studying
Fiendbreaker have resulted in a knack for understanding the inner workings of other magic items.
