Hysh

Hysh is the Aethyr's embodiment of the abstract of consciousness and illumination in the literal and metaphorical meaning of the word. It is a magic of philosophical truth and wisdom, rather than the more academic and fact-based Gold wind of Chamon. Hierophants, as the magisters of Hysh are known, are therefore often seen in the role of philosophers and valued advisors.

On the battlefield, Hierophants are particularly effective against the forces of Chaos, their light even being able to banish demons, and their illuminating magic able to cure chaos-spawned insanity and fear of the hearts of the mighty champions of the Empire.
