Rose Warden
Tyrants may try to destroy the seeds of dissent before they can bloom, but the goddess Milani and her followers strive to cultivate the hope that helps nourish those seeds, allowing them to one day sprout into revolution. As a rose warden, you advocate for such change, perhaps emerging from the ranks of the downtrodden yourself to defend your fellow citizens and push to unseat all tyrants everywhere. You tend not to seek personal fame or glory and perhaps even work as a swift blade from the shadows that strikes at the heart of oppression.
But you are no mere criminal or anarchist. You would rather that innocent people not be harmed as part of your quest for societal revolution. So that rightful demonstrations do not turn into destructive riots, you intercept those who would spark that explosive powder, perhaps even taking on the ire of the authorities solely on yourself. You also look to gain allies in these fights, but you still try to protect those friends from being captured or shackled. The sound of freedom rings out in your every word and deed.
More and more individuals calling themselves rose wardens have begun to appear in Nirmathas recently, possibly bolstered by Courage Heart's arrival. She is a herald of Milani who has aided Nirmathas's army in its battles against Molthuni invaders.
Additional Feats: 4th Quick Draw; 6th Reactive Pursuit; 8th Light Step; 14th Spring From The Shadows
Rose Warden Dedication Feat 2
Prerequisites trained in Stealth, you worship Milani
As a follower of the Everbloom, you stand up against tyranny and oppression, understanding that revolution against an unjust ruler must sometimes be enacted in secret. You become trained in Deception. If you're already trained in Deception, you become an expert in your choice of Deception or Stealth. When you get a critical success to Lie to a figure of authority, you gain a +1 circumstance bonus to your Fortitude DC and saving throws against being Confused, Controlled, Grabbed, Immobilized, or Restrained by that figure of authority for 24 hours.
You add the edicts and anathema of Milani to your own. Failing to uphold edicts or committing acts that violate the anathema result in you losing access to any abilities granted by this archetype, as determined by your GM. You can regain these lost abilities through the atone ritual as normal.

Wall Of Roses Feat 8
Roses are the symbol of Milani, and you can call forth a wall of them to stymie those who don't follow her teachings. You can cast Wall Of Thorns once per day as a 4th-rank divine innate spell. The wall is immune to fire and the piercing damage its thorns deal counts as silver for the purposes of resistances. Followers of Milani don't treat the wall's spaces as difficult terrain and don't take damage when they enter one of the wall's spaces.

Holy Flower Feat 10

Rise Up! Feat 12
Sometimes, you must even slip the chains of gravity to rebel. You shout a brief call to Milani, and you and two allies within 60 feet who can hear and understand you can Stand as a free action without triggering reactions. All targets then gain a fly Speed equal to their Speed or 20 feet, whichever is greater, for 1 minute.
