Default Paths

Every archetype has a default path: the Aethyrflame features a character takes at each level, from level 1 to 20, within the Aethyr points collected by then. Each path is modeled on the classic class and subclass it most resembles. It also fills the free picks the technique and source grant, so a new player can follow it without making any choices.

The creation form offers to follow the path when you make a character, and the character sheetlists the next features on it, ready to acquire. You can leave the path at any time and choose freely.
