"Be strong for the weak."

Champions epitomize the ancient concept of a hero -- those who accomplish. In the Kingdom, they were the defenders and the conquerors, the dragon slayers and the chain smashers. Their counterparts in the Reborn world value strength for altruistic reasons. They serve the weak. Moreover, they enjoy physical accomplishment for its own sake -- Champions frequently sprout from athletes, those with a penchant for construction or day labor, and even brawlers. Anyone who loves to push their body to the limit or appreciates the simple need for a sturdy pair of hands makes for a grand Champion.

Given their emphasis on physique, some tend to mistake Champions as simple-minded or naturally violent. Rather, they just look for direct solutions. To them, a problem is something that needs to be done. If they can't find a physical solution, something they can flat out do, then Champions will break the situation down until they can. They cut the Gordian knot, instead of puzzling over it. If there is a weakness that stems from this tendency, it's that Champions tend to be blind to someone's more sublime pain or motivations, but it also makes them refreshingly straight-forward and realistic.

Dreams

Champions dream of victories on a grand level -- armies defeated single-handedly, mountains knocked down, rivers wrestled from their paths, buildings held up for days at end. Their exploits are the stuff of Gilgamesh, Hercules, and Samson. But when they dream of the Cataclysm, they see weapons snatched from their hands, their own bodies turning sickly and weak, and dark throngs they overpower and humiliate them.

Magic

Champions have affinity to the Kiai, Aegis and Arete Charms.  Only Champions may learn Kiai.

Starting Champions get one transformed Attribute dot in either Strength or Resolve.

Duties

Champions regain magic whenever they perform a task for somebody who physically incapable or overwhelmed and don't have the time and/or resources they need. This can mean doing chores for an elderly neighbor, working for a charity or volunteer effort, protecting a classmate from a bully, or otherwise making a sacrifice of your time and effort for someone else's benefit.

Oaths

First Oath: I do solemnly swear (or affirm), that I will support, obey, and defend the relevant laws that the citizens have established, through their elected representatives. The scope of such laws may range from the precinct or district level, to the provincial level, and to the national level. Further, I swear (or affirm) that I will discharge the duties of my office with fidelity, and will uphold, obey, and enforce the law without consideration to a person's race, color, sex, religious creed, sexual orientation, age, national origin, ancestry, handicap, or disability. I will never sacrifice another for my own gain. I am first and foremost a protector, and to value anything over that betrays my Calling.

Second Oath: I must never abandon those who need my protection. Even if someone isn't staring down a horrible creature of Darkness right now, the chance remains that they could in the future. If someone needs to be watched over, they need to be watched over, and I can't ignore that need.

Third Oath: I should never back down from a challenge. I am a Champion -- I succeed where others may fail, I triumph against overwhelming odds. Unless some greater cause demands my attention, I should never back down from hardship or accept defeat; if I can't win at something, I should train until I can.
