Liberator is a custom prestige class (PGCC ONLY) with Arelith specific mechanics.

Introduction

A Liberator is an enduring symbol of liberty and freedom from tyranny. These champions of freedom and equality are strong-willed, independent-minded, and virtuous. They particularly direct their efforts against lawful evil societies that are dictatorships or plutocracies. These liberators also target slaveholders, slave traders, and powerful, corrupt governments. However, they also recognize the possibility of tyranny even in a state of anarchy where strong individuals may impose their will on weaker people. Mechanical information is included in the #Class Mechanics on this page and explained in the #Arelith Changes section. The #Roleplay Tips section provides suggestions for character development.

Roleplay Tips

Some mechanics developed differently than written, but this original write-up has guidance on class lore. Note that Liberator was originally a sub-class of Vigilante but had to be split out for engine reasons therefore the Vigilante lore write-up includes the spirit of Liberator.
