Prestige Class PFD

Fan Dancer

The art of fan dancing has disputed origins, as it is practised and revered in both Shurin and Ithiskar. While lower forms of fan-dancing performance are commonplace in both cultures, it is the martial dancer who becomes the subject of legend. It is predominantly regarded as a feminine occupation—especially in Ithiskar, where only the Saori (the feminine aspect) practise it—while in Shurin, the elite Fan Dancer order is made up only of women. Fan dancers are highly skilled, trained for decades, and often magically and physically gifted, capable of wielding deadly fan blades for performance as well as bloodshed. Must be Shurin or Ithiskar origin.
