Avian Ascendant (4e Paragon Path)

Avian Ascendant

“	I have reached it. The skies... they are MINE!!	”
—Hurath, birdfolk ranger, Epics of the Elements

Prerequisite: birdfolk

The wish of the birdfolk is to one day become their role models. Raptoran, aarakocra, and the many elementals who reign the sky command their envy. Through their immense faith and admiration, Mielikki had granted them partial command over the powers belonging to beasts of the air. Those who go further, drawing on the powers residing in their own belief and entwining it with the awesome primal air energies, can achieve their long-sought ascension and become a being which soars in the skies, freed from the shackles of earthbound existence.
