Igazi

''Unique Subclass available: Path of the Igazi Barbarian. Consult DM for further details.''

A reclusive tradition performed by the Goliath Tribes that roam The Sovereign Territory of Chalisar, Hikath and Leorin. Most often found in the high peaks and dense hills, Igazi Tribes enjoy a wild and free lifestyle. Natural born Igazi are bound to another life under their first solstice or equinox upon the plane, the two them become night inseparable until one dies. Those who seek to become Igazi later in life cannot undergo the full ritual, but should they undergo a partial ritual with a life they are close to then they experience a fraction of the true soul-forged bond.

The majority of Igazi are bound to a clanmate, with families often planning births to be close together so as to ensure a bond-mate for their child. Children who are born without a suitable partner, or children whos bond-mate dies during infancy are bound to a clan animal as a backup. Many clans use different animals depending on their tradition. The Peakrunner tribe of the high crags above Toroban bond with Crag Cats, while the Freefeathers clan in Leorin bond with large Eagles.

Not all Igazi live their whole lives with their tribes. The bonding nature of the Igazi tradition means that those who wander are never alone, Igazi pairs are occasionally seen venturing forth into the more populated areas of Hyperion seeking adventure or new life. While originally a secret tradition of the goliath, other races who found themselves traveling with the tribes were incorporated into their traditions, and while certainly a rare sight non goliath Igazi who are natural born are not unheard of.
