Savant

Savant

An elf cleaned her glasses with the corner of her cloak as the dust settled. The emperor had paid her a large sum to locate this forgotten place, and after months of pouring over ancient maps, she had pieced together the one-lost location of the primeval temple. Now, she had a decision to make. If she reported the location of the temple to her benefactor, it would be ruthlessly stripped of valuables. But, if she kept the location to herself, she could preserve the ancient knowledge contained within. For a savant, knowledge is more precious than any sum of gold.
An aging human warrior silently assessed the soldiers under his command. They were exhausted and almost out of supplies. It was the tenth night of a brutal siege, and the graying commander knew that no reinforcements were coming to their rescue. He was too old to be of much use in battle, but if his soldiers followed his orders without any hesitation, they might have a chance of survival. He stood up, and for what could very well be his final time, drew his weathered sword from its scabbard.
A young dwarf bent over his unconscious comrade in the midst of battle, his hands shook as he examined his brother's wounds. His clan had spent a small fortune sending him to study at the finest university in the land. All the hours spent in lectures and libraries, all for this moment. He thought back to his lessons and began to dress his brother's wounds.
Those described above are just some examples of the adventuring intellectuals known as savants. Armed with only their wit, they aid their allies and outwit their enemies.
There are many wonderfully intelligent people in the world, but few are true savants. Born with the innate desire to learn anything they can, and the potential for genius-level intellect, savants spend their lives learning anything that those around them are willing to teach. Often recognizable at an early age, a savant's unquenchable hunger for knowledge draws them to the great libraries, universities, and other places of higher learning. They are willing to go to any lengths to unlock the secrets of the world, often turning to lives of adventure. For a savant, no price is too steep for the promise of discovery. Savants are hyper-focused on their chosen area of study and often become obsessed with learning all they can about their specialty. In their quest for discovery, savants are willing to set aside any conviction, political, religious, or otherwise, to acquire the information they seek. To them, their desire for knowledge is more important than loyalty to any ideology.
Often at great personal cost, savants will not stop their research until they have made a revolutionary discovery in their area of study. It is not unusual to encounter one such scholar far from the safety of a university and its libraries.

Physicians use their considerable intellect to heal the sick and tend to the wounded. They spend their life studying anatomy and the inner workings of mortal creatures, and use this knowledge to keep their allies in top shape. Using their medical training, they offer aid to those who don't have access to the luxury of divine or arcane healing magic.
