How to use this hero
Home faction: Academy
Recruitment governor · Apprentice +2
I would choose this hero primarily to improve recruitment of the line below. The bonus applies while governing the relevant town and its area. Check dwellings, purchase costs and reinforcement travel before assigning the role.
Secondary role: A combat commander according to developed skills; the recruitment specialty itself does not improve the army’s attacks.
What the profile establishes
Specialty · Apprentice trainer
Town governor: Apprentices / Disciples gain +2 growth in the governed town’s area of control. The hero must be assigned as governor; this is not unconditional growth in every town. Recruitment cost remains separate.
Listed starting skills
- Metamagic
- Air Magic
Suggested army and further development
The following is our recommendation. Creatures, spells and items must actually be acquired; this does not establish current inventory.
For the primary role, first use the appropriate town and fund recruitment. For combat, build on the sourced skills below and choose new branches from this class’s actual options.
Skills I would build around: Metamagic · Air Magic. Match further choices to available ranks and the current army.
Creatures I would consider
Spells for this plan
- Lightning BurstSpell / warcry in the reference profile
Target an enemy in a tight cluster and check its next action timing. The opponent may move neighbors before the burst triggers. Without the protective perk, avoid casually moving a friendly stack next to the marked enemy.
Equipment I would compare
Compare effect, slot and acquisition conditions on the item card. A suggestion does not establish that the hero starts with it.
Army in the reference table
- Stack 1 · 5 × Golem
- Stack 2 · 11 × Gargoyle

Spells and suitable equipment

Editorial suggestions based on sourced magic or an army plan. These are not starting inventory or guaranteed finds. Check acquisition, slot and rules on the item card.

Disciple- Growth while governing a town · +2 growth
A specialty target, conversion and tactical example are different relationships. Check conversion costs and compare individual upgrade forms on creature cards. A tactical example is not a confirmed starting army.
The bonus requires the governor role and applies in the governed town’s area. Base and upgraded forms belong to one recruitment line; do not add their displayed values as two separate rewards. Check dwellings and budget: extra recruitment availability is neither a free army nor a direct combat bonus.
