From one generation to the next, a reclusive order of hermits have guarded apocryphal writings said to come from the Prophet himself. Vindicator, still early in his lonely quest, is the last of these lonely sentinels, but he has left his exile behind in order to join the battle against the Hellbourne. Using the potent verses inscribed in the Great Book, he wields unique and powerful magic.
The Vindicator unleashes forgotten lore from within The Book, causing enemy heroes to be impeded by the lore.
