Profile

Once a warband warrior feared across the stars,

Kaul of the Bel-Lamori was a name spoken in dread...

a Kesak Sky Pirate with a trail of legendary pillages behind her. When the Rift Crisis struck,

her fate was shrouded in rumor. Some claimed she slaughtered her own allies and vanished. Others said she died in the chaos of a world swallowed by rupture.

But the truth was stranger still. Kaul survived. And against all odds, she made it to Earth.

Her arrival, of course, wasn't without incident. She clashed violently with the Bureau of Rift Management, but somehow, through fire, force, and sheer stubborn will, she was brought into the fold.

Now serving as one of the Human God's Vanguards, Kaul holds onto a simple, almost innocent dream:

to save what's left of her world... and one day, return to the glory days of raiding, this time, maybe with the Human God at her side.

Kaul carries the title "Ravager". Kaul is a female Human (Kesak). Her birthday is September 25th, and she stands 178cm tall.

As the stat screen works them out, with the innate traits and before weapons, Stigmas and bonds. The second column is the top class tier after every Ascension. Ranged ATK takes the Strength and Melee ATK trait bonuses, as the game's stat screen does.

Classes and skills

6

Kaul starts in the Legion Shieldbearer class and promotes through 2 more tiers. Each promotion keeps the skills already learned and adds the new class's.

First tier

Legion Shieldbearer

Defense

Some consider the Legion's shieldbearers an outdated force. Nations that abandoned conscription early and adopted volunteer armies, as well as massive kingdoms that put their faith in cavalry, often undervalue the shieldbearers who, by setting up their defensive formations and raising their shields, lower their mobility. However, these shieldbearers, dismissed as obsolete, proved their worth in battles against abominations.

  • Standby

    Active · 15 AP

    Waits at the designated location.

  • Gap Stab

    Active · Pierce damage · 30 AP · Levels 1 to 10

    Stabs with a sword to attack. Deals Pierce DMG equal to 60/66/72/78/84/90/96/102/108/114% of Melee ATK.

    Numbers in level order, 1 to 10.

Second tier

Kesak Raider

Defense

Promotion: Gap Stab Lv. 3, then 3,000 credits

Brutal in nature and savage by choice, Kesak raiders are infamous for turning their shields into weapons more often than they use them for defense. These frontliners are most often seen wielding a sword in one hand, and a bludgeoning weapon in the other, masters of sheer violence. Their charge is relentless, chaotic, like a wildfire tearing through the battlefield, and are said to be nearly impossible to stop once it begins.

  • Reckless Leap

    Active · Slash damage · 75 AP · Cooldown 2 rounds · Levels 1 to 10

    Leaps high into the air and strikes down at the designated location, dealing 125/138/150/163/175/188/200/213/225/238% of Melee ATK as Slash DMG to enemies within a 3m radius. Reduces the user's Weak Point Angle by 120º until the start of their next turn. Enemies hit have a 40/44/48/52/56/60/64/68/72/76% chance to be inflicted with [Taunt] for 1 round.

    Numbers in level order, 1 to 10.

  • Time to Feast

    Passive · Levels 1 to 10

    After using a skill other than Standby, increases All DEF by 55/60/65/70/75/80/85/90/95/100% of current SPD. This effect lasts until the start of the user's next turn.

    Numbers in level order, 1 to 10.

Third tier

Kesak Warlord

Defense

Promotion: Reckless Leap Lv. 3, then 7,000 credits

A rampage with no retreat. A bloodline of fury, charging forward through countless warzones. Among the Kesak, one who never looks back, who leads every charge with unyielding violence, is honored with the title of Warlord. Or perhaps "honor" is the wrong word. Perhaps it is simply fear, draped in the guise of respect. For where a Kesak Warlord rides, only death follows.

  • Masochistic Frenzy

    Active · 45 AP · Cooldown 2 rounds · Levels 1 to 10

    Lowers the shield and shifts into an aggressive stance. Restores HP equal to 100% of max HP and gains the [Seeker of Pleasure] effect, becoming driven solely by lust and destruction.

  • Thrill of Agony

    Passive

    When 'Masochistic Frenzy' is used, and the [Seeker of Pleasure] effect is active, the skills 'Gap Stab' and 'Masochistic Frenzy' are replaced with 'Slaughter the Weak' and 'Irresistible Urge', respectively. Slaughter the Weak Can only be used when HP is above 1%. Swings the blade in a wide, sweeping arc to strike nearby enemies. Upon use, takes Fixed DMG equal to the user's Shield value + 20% of Max HP, but HP cannot drop below 1 during this turn. Deals Slash DMG equal to 100% of the user's Melee ATK to enemies within a 3m, 75° cone in front. Irresistible Urge Counts as a Basic Skill and can only be used when HP is 60% or below. Temporarily increases Critical Rate by 100% and boosts Crit DMG by 1.75% for every 1% HP lost. Deals Slash DMG equal to 150% of the user's Melee ATK to the target and Splash Slash DMG equal to 80% of the user's Melee ATK to nearby enemies. This attack ignores counterattacks. After use, removes the [Seeker of Pleasure] effect and restores HP equal to 100% of Max HP.

Exclusive weapon

Massively Vibrating Pole

Massively Vibrating Pole

Rank EX

Melee ATK x1.21 (+0.11 a level), Melee ATK +7.7% (+0.7% a level)

Unique: Resonance of Blood

During battle, increases Melee ATK by 20/24/28/32/36% and all DEF by 100/120/140/160/180. When using a skill other than Standby, increases SPD by 24/26/28/30/32% for 2 rounds. Can stack up to 3 times.

Kaul Signature: Surging Desire

Increases Basic ATK DMG by 20% during battle. Reduces the AP cost of [Masochistic Frenzy] by 45. When activating [Slaughter the Weak] with HP at 99% or below, gains one instance of [Extra Action]. This effect cannot trigger during an Extra Action. When using [Reckless Leap], reduces DMG taken by 50% until the start of the user's next turn.

No one truly knows which great Kesak warrior first wielded this monstrosity, but even now, its terrifying presence is undeniable. Once a "toy" of the ancients, this oversized, vibrating relic has become a coveted weapon among modern Kesak descendants, not for its elegance, but for its sheer, unrelenting impact. Equipped with intense vibration functions and a shaft that refuses to bend, the weapon bears a single sharpened edge, painstakingly carved after years of grinding and friction. Naturally, it fits the brutal taste of any true Kesak: big, heavy, loud, and built to smash. Enemies struck by the trembling might of the MVP often don't have time to feel disgust, only pain. And through that pain, they come to understand the fearsome legacy of ancient Kesak science...firsthand.

Starting weapon: Damaged Lamora Legion Arms.
