Ancient Master - Faerun Prestige Class
This is a Forgotten Realms Exclusive Class
Most Yuan-ti grow forgetful and sleepy as they age, but a few of the most powerful and strongest-willed abominations grow mightier of mind while their bodies are failing. They acquire additional psionic powers and gradually become recognized as the "ancient masters" of the race. Some become religious zealots, founding new temples or taking over existing ones and fanatically furthering whatever aims Sseth shows them in dream-visions. Others withdraw from Yuan-ti tribal politics and then society as a whole to live in isolated seclusion, much the way many study-obsessed human wizards do. Like human mages, such Yuan-ti typically build or take over fortresses in which to carry out their business.
