Author's Note: Still have a ton of work to do -Still trying to figure out how to work casting into classes. -Slowly adding items, monsters, and NPCs -All 307 base game weapons and 171 base game spells added. added, they will still require balancing but waiting for the combat overhaul before I dig too deeply into that. See the following document for homebrew rules specific to this world. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1t7MkfUj7CvzkERJoJGxCYYEd5H6lBEml9pYQl9rHUUY/edit?usp=drivesdk

Description

Cuckoo Soldiers are fearsome warriors once in service to the Academy of Raya Lucaria, known for their insatiable desire for conflict and plunder. Clad in striking red-and-blue surcoats emblazoned with the image of two cuckoos gazing upon a bountiful mass of glintstone, they present a contrast to their grim reputation. Each soldier dons a unique helm, topped with a single vibrant cuckoo feather, serving as both a sign of their allegiance and a mark of honor in battle. Additionally, these soldiers are proficient in wielding Cuckoo Glintstone, capable of casting powerful spells that reflect their mastery of arcane arts. Their infamous assault on Caria Manor exemplified their ferocity, yet their hubris ultimately led to their undoing when they fell victim to an enchanted snare.
