Warden
This resilient tank will decimate all those who stand in its way, even if it must spill its own blood to do so.
Using their very own blood, the Warden absorbs punishment and unleashes it upon its foes with a frenzied Greatsword. The Warden's pure might making the earth move underneath their feet lets them be at the forefront of any enemy as the awakened power of their Soul Flare ability course through their bodies.
Although the simple ways of the Greatsword and the slow movement of their fighting style can be dull, there's no denying the blinding brilliance of the Warden letting this martial artist rush in where angels fear to tread.
Available Races: Jin, Gon, Lyn
