Chosen

Archetype: Tank

Spacial Mechanic: Curses

Chosen are the Chaos faction's Tank class. Fighters specializing in group offense, the Chosen surround themselves with harmful auras. These curses damage or negatively impact any opponent that closes with the Chosen, who can have up to three curses active at any time.

Specialty
The Chosen engage in melee combat with large daemonic weapons and use warping auras which buff allies and debuff enemies. Chosen are male-only and are paired with the Empire Knight of the Blazing Sun.

Path of Dread
The Path of Dread is highly offensive, focusing on direct offensive power while sacrificing some defensive protections. A master of Dread will be likely to favor a Great Weapon over a shield. He will be easily capable of picking up a shield when the situation calls for it... but he won't be happy about it.

Path of Corruption
The Path of Corruption is a cunning mastery for those who prefer to wait for their enemies to fruitlessly unleash their most powerful attacks before responding with deliberate and vicious counter attacks. A specialist in Corruption can outlast most enemies letting his foes exhaust their attacks against his shield and he will be the person who defines where the lines of battle will be drawn, since he -is- the front line.

Path of Discord
The Path of Discord is one that delves more deeply into Tzeentch's arcane gifts, and masters of Discord have a limited understanding of how to manipulate the Chaos forces that swirl within them. They can unleash blasts of magical power, or twist the aethyr to unnaturally enhance their melee attacks. Their understanding of the nature of magic is still relatively shallow, however they can not hope to approach the skill or power of a true Magus, but even their brief flashes of otherworldly energy are enough to empower them as potent melee combatants.

Changes
