WylderheartSource Shining Kingdoms pg. 146You’re a defender of nature, called to protect the world from the corrupting influence of demons. You might use a bow in the vein of your organization’s patron deity
Ketephys, wield a sword in the style of valiant knights, or harness the
primal magic of nature itself against your foes. No matter your chosen tool, your greatest assets in the battle against evil are the strength of your heart and your bond with your allies.
Additional Feats
Source Player Core pg. 215 2.0Some archetypes include a list of “Additional Feats” that appear in other sources. The list includes each feat’s level, which might be different than normal when gained from the archetype. You can take the feat as an archetype feat of that level, meaning it counts toward the number of feats required by the archetype’s dedication feat. When selected this way, a feat that normally has a class’s trait (such as the fighter trait) doesn’t have that class trait.
