Savant
Savants are the scholars and sages of Talislanta. They spend their lives in study and research. Most have single areas of expertise while some few study a broad range of subjects. Most are content to pass their days over dusty old tomes in places like the Lyceum Arcanum or the Library of Jalaad while a few exceptional Savants find more value in studying their passions up close.
