the Tragedian class?
Quick Fact: A Tragedian is an actor who specializes in performing tragedies. They originated in Greece.
Although I know this is never going to happen, I just thought I'd share an idea I think would be fun. The Tragedian would be a combination of a ninja/kunoichi and a bard/dancer (Yes, I know this isn't Final Fantasy) that specializes in debuffing enemies and then cleaning up the mess with some attack skills, both ranged and close-ranged.
So let me know what you think? I know it's an obscure idea, but would you ever consider playing such a character? Feedback would be cool. Any additions you feel would make sense or add to the character?
Lore: This resident of Sanctuary belongs to an organization that was originally a guild of entertainers who traveled across all of the world during it's more peaceful times, performing for the people and staging dramatic plays. However, as Sanctuary began to plummet into chaos and paranoia as word spread of demon invasions in far off lands, they began to see that their particular skills were no longer needed or appreciated. They refashioned themselves into a group of unique warriors, constantly training in a new fighting style that used their stage skills and acrobatic prowess as its basis and they became known as Tragedians. These are the testing times where they will put their skills to the use and find if they are truly an asset to the world of Sanctuary.
Skill Trees:
Stage Fighting - The Tragedian is skilled in a fighting style that, while beautiful, is actually quite effective in combat, utilizing their speed and agility to perform devastating moves.
Introduction: A backwards flipping kick that knocks back an enemy.
Climax: A close range kneeing to the stomach that temporarily stuns enemies.
Finale: A spinning kick that damages enemies in a 360 radius. Higher levels increase damage and range.
Grace: A passive buff that decreases the chance the Tragedian will be hit by melee attacks and increases the chance to dodge ranged attacks.
Perform - The Tragedians have always used their skills in order to evoke emotions in people. They have perfected their movements and have reached the point where they have learned to perform certain gestures and use their voices to create musical notes that have a hypnotizing effect, causing enemies to go into trances or causing them to perform certain acts. They can also buff allies in this way.
Tragic Sorrow: An array of sorrowful steps that lowers an enemy's guard, lowering their defense and making them more susceptible to damage from physical attacks.
Lethargy Tune: Perform a song that causes an enemy to lose their balance, slowing down their movement and attack speed.
Banshee's Shriek: The Tragedian performs a frightening scream that roots enemies in place for a few seconds.
Seppuku Dance: Performs a series of gestures and moves that drives enemies into a rage, causing them to attack their allies, or if no other enemy is present, attack themselves.
Berserker Melody: Perform a dance that increases an allies drive for battle and improves attack speed slightly as well as physical damage.
Mana Song: Increases mana regeneration for allies.
Master Bard: Passive that increases the duration of your song's and dance's effects.
Amazing Feats: Basically death defying feats performed at circuses and things like that. These include knife-throwing and near superhuman strength.
Knife Throw: Throws a razor knife at an enemy with a chance to pierce, causing physical damage.
Pin: Throws several sharp needles in front of the Tragedian, causing any enemies to experience physical damage, as well as extra bleed damage as a dot.
Precision: Increases the critical strike chances of ranged skills such as Knife Throw and Pin.
Strong Arm: Throws an enemy to the ground, damaging them and creating a shock wave that also damages surrounding enemies, but for less damage.
Escape Artist: Dispels any slow, stun, and immobilizing effects and then causes the Tragedian to become immune to them for a short while. Would have a cooldown (20 secs?)
Fire Breathing: Cause nearby enemies to engulf in flames, and spreads the fire to other enemies.
