Abilities

Historical Specialistinteraction

In matters regarding history or court records, the court historian is a 5th-level challenge.

Records Don't Lieinteraction

The court historian has a Perception DC of 25 against Deception checks asserting false current or historical events.

Distracting Diatribe

The court historian monotonously recites facts to distract a creature within 30 feet that can hear them. The target is Off-Guard for 1 round.

Amid the political machinations of the court stand the court historians, observing and recording events for future generations. Their loyalty is to the preservation of history, and they will defy even royalty in the name of truth.


The denizens of a noble court are the most powerful people in a civilization, primed with wealth, station, and authority above the common people.
