Timeless Subclasses
Unearthed Apocrypha #2: Outlaws and Ossuaries, p. 2.
The character options included in this issue are rooted in historical “outlaws:” people who were marked for exile or execution by the powers that be. Although some of these archetypes are rooted in stories that are thousands of years old, the theme of surviving persecution from those in power is a timeless one. From slavery in ancient Egypt to the oppressive rule of the Antichrist at the end of time, there have always been (and always will be) people forced to operate from the shadows. Regardless of the time period in which they find themselves, the following character options should give players the tools they need to adapt and overcome.
