The Deneith Mage Slayer

By Darkgolem

The mercenaries of House Deneith are a varied lot, however, one elite among it's ranks stands out, the Deneith Mage Slayer. Using the mark of sentinel to protect themselves in combat, with the specialty of defeating spell casters, these warriors are deadly enemies against any arcane or divine caster. Highly resistant to magic, and able to inflict massive damage in combat, the Denieth Mage Slayer is much feared in battle.

In combat, the Deneith Mage slayer should single out spell casters for death, moving quickly to them (using sprint boost) and then beating their opponent to pulp. When faced with an arcane caster, they should prepare with a protection from elements spell, and use major globe of invulnerability when their opponent is cornered (to keep them from casting). In those times when they are being peppered with magic, the globe of invulnerability is very useful.

Aside from fighting arcane casters, the mage slayer is very deadly in combat, but more useful as a damage dealer once aggression is upon other opponents. However, even in those circumstances where being on the sidelines is not a choice, the mage slayer is very apt in a front line, stand up, fight.
