 The Savant is a master of intellect and strategy, wielding their vast knowledge and keen insight to guide their allies to victory. They excel at providing tactical guidance, strategic planning, and invaluable buffs to enhance the capabilities of their party members.

Whether it's bolstering their allies' combat prowess, uncovering hidden weaknesses in enemy defenses, or offering sage advice in times of uncertainty, the Savant's presence is indispensable to any adventuring party. The Savant is a master of intellect and strategy, wielding their vast knowledge and keen insight to guide their allies to victory.

-But their brilliance comes at a cost.  Years spent poring over dusty tomes and honing their intellect have left them physically frail. Their combat prowess is limited, and they are ill-suited for the brutal clashes faced by warriors. They lack the raw strength and agility to dish out significant damage or take heavy blows. Additionally, their reliance on analysis and deduction can lead to moments of hesitation in the face of fast-paced combat. While they excel at strategizing, they might struggle to adapt to rapidly changing situations on the battlefield. This makes the Savant highly dependent on the protection of their allies, who ensure they have the space and time to unleash their strategic genius.+But their brilliance comes at a cost.  Years spent poring over dusty tomes and honing their intellect have done them no favours where their physical development is concerned.
