Avowed is set in the same universe as Obsidian's Pillars of Eternity series. The setting has a few cities which could be developed in Avowed , such as Defiance Bay and New Heomar. One side effect of the Pillars of Eternity games being top-down rather than open-world RPGs is that the art in-game implies these cities are realistically sized, as unlike in a first-person game, the developer is under no pressure to make every part of the city open to exploration. The downside is that if these cities do not live up to renditions in the previous games, player immersion could be negatively affec


Magran is the goddess of war, fire, consumption, transformation, purification, and trials. Her priests use firearms, and her symbol is the flame and the flaming bomb. It was her priests that helped to develop the magical Godhammer bomb which killed Saint Waidwen, making her the most popular deity in Dyrwood, one nation in the world of Eora .

The treatment of the Wilders in Pillars of Eternity is fascinatingly nuanced and works to show that the delineation between the Kith and their godlike descendants and the Wilders is one largely of perspective rather than biology.

In Pillars of Eternity 2 , multi-classing allowed the player to customize characters as a mix of any two classes in the game. A multi-class character misses out on the very most powerful abilities available to both classes, but gains all the benefits of having two sets of powers and bonuses that synergize together. For example, a Fighter/Rogue multi-class becomes a Swashbuckler, a Barbarian/Cipher becomes a Witch, and a Wizard/Paladin becomes an Arcane Knight.
