File:Bonedancer.jpg

The Bonedancer is a Midgard pet caster who follows the Valkyn ancient pre-Norse god Bogdar. Bogdar was accepted by the Norse gods when the Valkyn race became civilized and integrated with the Trolls, Kobolds, Dwarves, and human Norse. Bogdar is the Valkyn god of the dead - because Valkyn are staunch believers in reincarnation, Bogdar's job is to evaluate each dead soul and determine its next life. As the soul is reincarnated, its old body is discarded and eventually is returned to the Earth Mother through decomposition. Bogdar grants Bonedancers the power to re-animate the skeletal remains of discarded bodies as creatures that will obey commands. The heart of this class is that they are a pet caster who can summon more than one pet at a time, at higher levels. However, they control only one pet directly, the commander - all the other minions are controlled by the commander. If a commander is killed, all the minions are immediately released, hence it is imperative that the Bonedancer keep his commander alive. By extremely high levels, the Bonedancer can have up to three different minions under his commander's control (four pets total). At low levels, they can summon only an undead commander, and act much like a normal pet class until level 15 -21 depending on specialization choices. From then on, they can mix and match several combinations of minions, available at level 15 and 18 respectively in specialization lines. Examples are archers and melee tanks in Bone Army specialization, buffers and healers in Suppression specialization, and nukers and debuffers in Darkness specialization, in addition to their commander.
