Paragon Paths -- Warrior Poet
War is an art. I am simply expanding my horizons.

Prerequisite: Loreman

A warrior poet is one who understands that balance in all things is of the utmost importance. While they are skilled in taking lives and destruction, so are they too experts in uplifting others and creating works of art. This mindset and behavior makes them frequent subjects of admiration and imitation.

Warrior Poet Path Features

Serene Countenance (11th level): You face adversity and temptation with a calm demeanor and council your allies on doing the same. You and allies within 5 squares of you gain a +2 bonus to saving throws against fear and charm effects.
