Skald

Skald

Bragi, the god of poetry and song bestows his blessings on the class called Skalds. With Bragi's blessings, the Skald is infused with the ability to deliver his party swiftly into battle. During the battle the Skald may call upon Bragi to enhance the party's battle prowess by chanting Bragi's poetry. The chants will either inspire the party to do better within the battle, or they may allow the party to be more aware of certain magic, allowing them to avoid such damage.

The Skald fights alongside his Viking brethren, and has the ability to augment his fighting skills by shouting the words of Bragi at his enemies. The words can be used to hurt an opponent outright, slow their progress, or to stop them in their tracks.

When the battle is over, the Skald may use a soothing verse to speed the healing process and ready his party for battle once again.
