-Although the gods work through many agents, perhaps none is more mysterious than the oracle. These divine vessels are granted power without their choice, selected by providence to wield powers that even they do not fully understand. Unlike a cleric, who draws her magic through devotion to a deity, oracles garner strength and power from many sources, namely those patron deities who support their ideals. Instead of worshiping a single source, oracles tend to venerate all of the gods that share their beliefs. While some see the powers of the oracle as a gift, others view them as a curse, changing the life of the chosen in unforeseen ways.+Oracles wield nontheistic powers derived from an enigmatic source. These phenomena, aptly referred to as "Mysteries," often reveal themselves when triggered by a transformative event, an emotionally intense situation, or some other extraordinary experience. Each Mystery bestows an array of unique and potent abilities upon the oracle, however, the pursuit of these powers entails a profound trade-off - irrepressible compulsions that firmly bind the oracle's actions to the very essence of their Mystery. The oracle's journey is intricately interwoven with vivid dreams and haunting visions, acting as guides that dictate their choices and often uncanny behaviors. As an oracle's power grows, their connection to the source of their magic strengthens until it ultimately consumes them, unless they learn to harness it for their own benefit.
  
 Oracles do not usually associate with any one church or temple, instead preferring to strike out on their own, or with a small group of like-minded individuals. Oracles typically use their spells and revelations to further their understanding of their mystery, be it through fighting mighty battles or tending to the poor and sick. Oracles do not usually associate with any one church or temple, instead preferring to strike out on their own, or with a small group of like-minded individuals.

-Each oracle draws upon a [[mysteries|divine mystery]] to grant her spells and powers. This mystery can represent a devotion to one ideal, prayers to deities that support the concept, or a natural calling to champion a cause. Regardless of its source, the mystery manifests in a number of ways as the oracle gains levels. An oracle must pick one mystery upon taking her first level of oracle.+Each oracle draws upon a [[mysteries|divine mystery]] to grant her spells and powers.

 Oracles are spontaneous casters that use the ''master'' command to learn new spells. They ''cast'' any of spells they learned by expending a spell slot that was prepared using the ''prepare'' command. They can see how many slots per level they have prepared with ''recall oracle spells''. They can list all their available spells for the class with the ''spells oracle'' command. Oracles are spontaneous casters that use the ''master'' command to learn new spells.
