Role.
Healer
With song and tale, a Minstrel brings hope to places thick
with gloom. She can inspire those with fearful minds and
heavy hearts to great deeds. In battle, she can turn the tide
with uplifting songs that strengthen and restore her allies,
and dirges that strike fear into the hearts of her enemies.
The Minstrel is the class of choice for players who want to
aid their friends, inspiring them to keep going through the
darkest of times. With a vast repertoire of tales both fair and
foul, a Minstrel restores the Morale
of her fellows, as well as causing her
enemies to despair. Though able
to wield weapons, Minstrels prefer
to let their words, rather than their
swords, speak for them. Their style
of combat is based on maintaining
hope no matter what the odds.
