{"name":"Gate Warden","overview":"You spent a significant amount of time somewhere influenced by intense planar forces or a portal to another plane of existence, such as one of the gate-towns in the Outlands. You're accustomed to experiences that would leave others reeling in terror or enraptured by otherworldly beauty, and you're as comfortable dealing with Celestials and Fiends as you are with vendors in town (who might be one and the same).\r\n[br]\r\n[h3]Building a Gate Warden Character[\/h3]\r\nThose who dwell for an extended time near a permanent portal to another plane absorb the essence radiating from the realm beyond.
