Pantheri

Swordsman

Attack

In the Noctis Nebula, the development of metallurgy and armor led to a divergence in the path of the sword. One path chose heavy blades capable of breaking through even the thickest armor, while the other chose a light and sharp rapier capable of piercing the gaps in armor. Those commonly known as Fencers are those who have chosen the path of the rapier. Their social status varies widely, some practice the swordsmanship of noble houses, while others wield the style of ruffians. However, the outcome is always the same: swiftly thrusting and slashing at the opponent's openings. For a Fencer, that is the only justice.

Swashbuckler

Defense

Promotion: Determination Lv. 3, then 3,000 credits

Most Fencers picked up their rapiers for worldly pursuits, and many end up taking the path of a back-alley knife-for-hire. In truth, most of those who become little more than private thugs in the backstreets of the Empire's southern reaches are full of bravado but lack real skill. However, on rare occasions, a true swordsman who calls themself a "freebooter" takes up the dangerous blade not for wealth or petty pride, but to carry out their own sense of justice.

  Master of Skirmish

  Passive · Levels 1 to 10

  The SwashBuckler's dazzling attacks create a chaotic state where friend and foe are indistinguishable.

Outlaw King

Defense

Promotion: Outlaw's Mockery Lv. 3, then 7,000 credits

The swordsmen known as the Outlaw Kings have already made a name for themselves as freebooters. Unlike Swordmasters, they haven't learned to imbue their blades with arcane power, but their swordsmanship, combat trickery, and quick-thinking reflexes have been honed to perfection. They often call themselves heroes of justice, aiding the helpless and punishing the wicked.
