Bearing the silver and white banners of Presson’s Enclave, Pressonian Abjurers are what most Omerians picture when they hear the term “knight.” These storied warriors of The Summer Land were the first true legends of Omeria. The Pressonian Abjurers traversed the Basilisk’s Spine to face the Anorians at the Siege of Imfe Mythse Anore. They tackled the danaavrakti hordes during the Hand of the Third. And they persevered through the War of the Burning Plains, eventually turning the Great Chromatics away from the long continent.
And while Presson’s Enclave has lost some of its sheen it once boasted following their triumphs in the Fairknot Region over one thousand years ago, the Pressonians are still a respected and beloved part of Omerian history and lore.
Pressonian Abjurers are eldritch knights whose spellcasting ability is as sharp as the greatswords they carry. As per the laws of The Summer Land, Pressonian Abjurers limit their spellcasting talents to the paths of abjuration and evocation with a touch of divination, illusion, and necromancy. Pressonian Abjurers are strictly forbidden from using magic from the schools of conjuration, enchantment, and transmutation.
