Description
Adds the Movanic Deva Class: A deva is a kind of angel, or aasimon. There are three orders of devas: astral devas, monadic devas, and movanic devas.

Movanic devas are a kind of angel and members of one of the three orders of the devas, the others being astral devas and monadic devas. The most privileged and worldly of devas, movanic devas oversee the Prime Material Plane, the Negative Energy Plane, and the Positive Energy Plane.

Devas are averse to clothing; when they must adhere to mortal custom, they don simple loincloths or other coverings.

The movanic devas have the privilege of traveling to the Material Plane at will to aid prominent followers of the gods of good in times of great need. While they more often appear disguised as humanoids or animals, they can manifest in their winged angelic form if this suits their needs.

They usually work alone, but also operate in pairs, trios, or squads of up to six members.

Movanic devas love battle, though not to the extent of the monadic devas. Reacting swiftly and never taken by surprise, they tend to dive into melee, with firm grips on their flaming swords. They fight with skillful and rapid attacks.

By parrying with their flaming sword, a movanic deva can deflect missiles and hurled weapons and counter rays and other spells that target them alone, even ones that are unavoidable, like magic missile. However, they have to be aware of an incoming attack to deflect it, and they can not deflect two simultaneous strikes.

Mage: Prediction, Valiant Charge, Overwhelm, Advanced Heal, Bestow Might, and Master Spell Holy Wrath
Fighter: Cleave, Disguise, Reversal, Body Training, Phase Strike, Mind Over Matter

For lore, I recomend putting it on a pawn with the nudist trait, Deva's don't like clothes in DnD. Abilities were chosen based on the Movanic Deva and Angel pages linked above.

I was gonna give it enchant weapon, for that flaming sword, but the enchantment is random, so I went with Bestow Might instead.

Also starts with flight.

If you use the Night Vision mod, then they get night vision; dnd devas have dark vision.

Eventually. This one doesn't have any dlls though, so unless the update was bigger than I thought, then it should work fine.

Will you be updating this?

It's not needed, but if you want to make your own classes for A Rimworld of Magic, it's a good place to start.

Does this require that mod to function? Or is that merely listed in the description by way of credit to explain how it was created?

@Dank Palpatine, maybe?

I know you can force traits with AlienRace.BackstoryDef in the humanoid alien framework, if that's what you're using. If you force all of your angel backstories to have the trait TM_MovanicDeva then that would probably do it.

Would it be possible to add this to a specific race to always spawn with? I'm releasing an angel race soon and this fits really well.

Can your pawns start with your various classes randomly or are they only something they can become later?

Maybe. I hadn't considered it, but I might. Personally I like being able to pick and choose individually with my load order.
