School of Scouts

If the Warrior is about grit, power and sheer strength, then Scouts concern themselves more with speed, camouflage, agility and awareness. They dress in light armor, making them vulnerable??? when they can be hit. Scouts are complex creatures requiring a delicate touch and measured approach, and once their inherent strengths and weaknesses are understood, they are formidable opponents.

Once a scout has reached the required level of ability, they will be able to choose one of two classes to specialize in: the Ranger, or Assassin. They are an easier kill if caught unaware but, chances are if you see them they've decided to let you or, you're already half dead.

Ranger

Rangers are experienced Scouts who have shunned the idea of working within a regular military unit, choosing instead to work alone or in specialist teams. They are solitary figures with finely honed survival skills and the ability to endure even in the harshest environments. While versatile and highly functional, Rangers are strikingly anti-social figures and never seem at peace among the masses of Atreia.

In terms of weaponry, Rangers are expert archers. While some prefer to charge into the fray, a Ranger prefers to calculate and strike, bringing even the fiercest combatants to their knees without unnecessary exposure. Complimenting this mentality, Rangers are skilled in the use of preset traps. They are also well trained in the use of daggers. While not as able with a blade as an assassin, a Ranger can inflict crippling damage to a foe even in close proximity.

A Ranger is always aware of their surroundings and prefers to tactically use it to their advantage. By mixing skill, speed, and cunning, they achieve victory and a clean kill.

Assassin

Assassins are a mysterious class, with the ability to become totally invisible to their opponents. This technique makes these gifted killers valuable allies. A skilled assassin strikes silently with devastating consequences to their vulnerable prey. This approach can effectively neutralize the functionality of a unit with the elimination of a single target. It is whispered that they follow no god, preferring to follow the star of death for instruction.

Assassins themselves are fairly weak, and when prematurely discovered, rarely survive the inevitable consequences.The Assassin will use Daggers in expert ways to destroy their enemies in the blink of an eye. When ranged combat is necessary, though lacking the skill of a ranger, an assassin can still turn to a bow to continue their assault.
