Marauder Duelist

In the tempestuous world of Alavir, where the line between hero and villain is as thin as a cutlass edge, the Marauders emerge as a force to be reckoned with. These Duelists are not mere swordsmen; they are the embodiment of the untamed sea and the relentless storm, a fusion of Viking valor and Pirate cunning. With their Corsair's Edge, they strike with the swiftness of a tidal wave, their Charisma fueling their initiative, their agility unmatched on both land and sea.

Born from the traditions of seafaring warriors and treasure-seeking buccaneers, Marauders are masters of intimidation and sleight of hand. Their Sea Reaver skills make them formidable in social confrontations, their words as sharp as their blades. Yet, it is their combat prowess that sets them apart. With Cheap Shot, they blend the art of thievery with deadly strikes, their sleight of hand enabling extra attacks that catch enemies off guard.

As they ascend in power, their Tenacious spirit makes them almost invincible, healing from the very wounds they inflict upon their foes. Their fortitude becomes unbreakable, a testament to countless battles and storms weathered. But it is at the pinnacle of their mastery, they unlock Stormraider's Fury, a technique so devastating that it can only be described as a tempest incarnate. With each swing of their weapon, they unleash the fury of the storm, their blades crackling with thunderous might. A critical hit is not just a strike; it is a cataclysm, a bolt of lightning that shatters both armor and resolve.

Marauders are not just fighters; they are legends. Their names are whispered in taverns and feared on battlefields. They are the storm that guards the sea, the thunder that echoes through the mountains, the heroes that rise when darkness descends. In a world teetering on the brink of chaos, the Marauders stand unyielding, their blades singing the songs of storms and freedom.
