===Path of the Scholar===
 
−
Philosophy:The Path of the Scholar revolves around the idea that knowledge,  especially in the fields of necromancy, thaumaturgy, or other arcane disciplines,  is the ultimate source of power and must be protected at all costs. Scholars of  this path are ravenous seekers of knowledge but also zealous in guarding it  from the unworthy. They view their studies as sacred, believing that through  the mastery of these arts, they can unlock the deepest mysteries of life, death,  and existence. <br>
