[@Jabber] - The idea is for Rael to be the equivalent of a Rogue with the central abilities of a tank; get in close and fast, get their attention, don't get hit. I'll make the suggested edits (or come up with different modifications that are fair), but I'd like to make note that Advance is supposed to be essentially a 'Charge' ability; I'm just trying to make sense of it where it works for you as much as it does for me. But as these are early level abilities I'll figure it out in a way that is fair. Here's an update: Essentially I took out Advance's threat gain and just made it a speed buff for charge instead of having it be a simple threat gain. I also, fixed Evasion to be a passive. Let me know if my wording is awkward or if I have to opt to change it differently.

As other players of the game likely scoffed, panicked, or went into a dumbfounded fit of confusion by the in-character portrayal of “The Dark Lord”, it was evident that she had wholly different feelings about it. The prospect of being confined to a virtual world was not entirely unappealing to the purple-haired young adult. In fact, if she had to describe how she immediately felt without filter or pre-thought she would’ve likely said the concept was exciting and freeing rather than being afraid or anxious about it. For her entire life she had been tasked with maintaining expectations from not only her family but the community as well; forced to deal with the drudgery of social popularity and comprehending the demands of being a model student. In fact, she was pretty much sure she was the only one who saw the virtual captivity as a blessing in disguise to the level she did— all of the trappings of society’s expectations, judgment, and incessant demands were now irrelevant and the true escapism she desired was finally obtainable. A laugh escaped her lips as she continued to process it all; especially the irony of her confinement cumulating in her absolute freedom. But even through her “liberty” she was not so naïve to think of the consequences and risk of her new reality. As exciting as all of the news was for her, there was a lot to take in and consider and the questions began to enter her mind almost as soon as her initial bewilderment faded from thought. Did they require to eat to maintain themselves? Did the mechanics change due to the full immersion that was likely to take place? What happened if someone was to die? Was this one of those situations where her and everyone else’s lives in AO were now absolute, where they had to be wary of even the slightest mistake? Would they die outright if their health reached zero? or would this be a case of countless revivals at resurrection sites? If she “died” would she have to wait for a cleric to arrive to rescue her? The entity had not explained how perilous death was in the game, a fact that was likely the cause of much anxiety by the server’s populace. Why did this being that called himself a dark lord only tell them that they couldn’t log out? An important question that many would have to either die to find out or await another appearance of the mysterious entity. [i][color=C9ABC7]The smartest decision is to find a group right now. Deal with less significant issues later; if I know VMMORPG players as well as I think I do, things are about to get... violent.[/color][/i] Rael’s amber eyes narrowed as she looked at the nearest crowd— looking for anyone who might be eager to have a comrade in arms. Once she saw someone of interest she walked forward before speaking confidently. [color=C9ABC7][b]“Strange day, right?”[/b][/color] [/hider]
