Marked by an indelible soulbrand, these individuals are neither fully alive nor wholly dead, their essence bound to the unseen forces of the Veil.  \nUnlike wizards who study tomes or warlocks who bargain with entities, the Lichbourne weaves magic through the very fibers of their soul, channeling raw necrotic energy into formidable spells and abilities. Their power does not rely on arcane formulas but on a reservoir of Veil Dice, a shifting wellspring of life and death that fuels their unnatural powers. Whether feared as harbingers of doom or revered as death’s shepherds, the Lichbourne does not merely wield necromantic power, they embody it.  \nBound to each Lichbourne is a Soulbound Eidolon, a spectral companion that manifests as a haunting extension of their will. This eerie entity is more than a summoned minion; it is a tether to the afterlife, an everpresent reminder that the Lichbourne exists beyond the reach of mortality. As they grow in power, these grim conjurers inscribe Eidolic Brands upon their spectral ally, empowering it with unique abilities. Some Lichbourne embrace their Eidolon as an eternal guardian, while others choose to forgo it entirely, engraving their necrotic sigils upon their own flesh, transforming themselves into an unyielding avatar of the grave.  \nBut the Lichbourne’s path is not without choices. Through Vestiges, they carve their own legacy among, shaping their magic to suit their dark ambitions. Some become Bonewrights, architects of monstrous abominations, crafting their Eidolons into grotesque engines of destruction. Others choose the Ebon Crusade, forsaking their companion to instead transform themselves into a solitary juggernaut, wreathed in necrotic might. The Crypt Keeper, in contrast, commands not one spirit but a restless horde, raising a spectral legion to overwhelm their foes. Regardless of their path, all Lichbourne share a single truth: they have defied the final threshold of existence, and in doing so, they have become something far greater.  \nCreating a Lichbourne   \nWhen crafting your Lichbourne, consider the nature of the soulbrand that marks your existence. How did you first brush against the boundary between life and death? Were you a scholar of the occult who pushed too far in their studies, only to awaken a power that refused to release you? Did you perish in battle, only to be wrenched back into the world with an unnatural tether? Perhaps your soul was never wholly yours to begin with—claimed by an unknown force before your birth, waiting for the moment to manifest. Was this transformation a choice, a desperate gamble to grasp power beyond mortality? Or was it a cruel fate, something forced upon you by an unseen hand?  \nYour Soulbound Eidolon is more than a mere companion—it is a fragment of your own existence, a reflection of the deathly forces that bind you. What shape does it take? Is it a specter of a forgotten ancestor, a stitched-together horror of bone and sinew, or a whispering shadow that barely clings to form? Do you see it as a protector, a reminder of your power, or a chain that ties you to something best left undisturbed? If you have chosen to walk without an Eidolon, how does the power manifest within you? Are the sigils of death carved into your skin, your breath always just shy of freezing the air? Work with your DM to determine how your unnatural state influences your adventures—are you feared, worshipped, or hunted? Do you seek control over your growing power, or do you surrender to the whispers of the Veil, allowing it to shape your fate?  \nQuick Build  \nYou can make a Lichbourne quickly by following these suggestions. First, Intlligence should be your highest ability score, followed by Constitution. Second, choose the wayfarer backgr","cbCainad16U2dWUu","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainad16U2dWUu","pdf",2232757,"English","# Creating a Lichbourne\n## Quick Build\n## The Lichbourne Table\n## Hit Points and Proficiencies\n## Equipment","[{\"question\":\"What legacy paths can a Lichbourne choose through Vestiges?\",\"answer\":\"Vestiges shape different ambitions, including Bonewrights, the Ebon Crusade, and the Crypt Keeper.
