Tennin
Creature 9 — angel, celestial, holy
WeaverLANDcelestialholy
Celestial artisans and elegant dancers called tennins serve as Nirvana's attendants, where they weave the gods' marvelous, seamless garments from clouds and frost and entertain the courts with skyward dances, their footsteps lighter than dew. During catastrophic wars and disasters, tennins descend from Nirvana to mend what is broken and soothe those who suffer. The realm of Nirvana often promotes the virtuous souls of dutiful craftspeople and dedicated musicians to the ranks of the brocade angel

WORKS WELL WITH
AnvilLANDA durable frontline ally benefits most from the equipment-hardening aura, since armor and shields see the most damage.
CrasherLANDA mobile brute's gear gains extra durability from the aura, letting it push deeper before breaking equipment.
PUNISHES
✖ low Will saves✖ clumping
Avoid stacking multiple Weavers; the equipment-buff aura doesn't compound meaningfully with a second support caster.
