While her enemies pour into the room to surround her, the elf calmly prepares her next move with energy crackling between her hands. When the moment is right, she vanishes in a burst of lightning. Her befuddled foes don’t realize that she’s now standing in the entrance behind them until she unleashed waves of electricity back into the chamber.
An orc drops from the roof, rolling with the fall to come back up running. Heading towards his companions, he can see they are blissfully unaware of the sorcerer preparing something devastating behind them. He throws his shield at the sorcerer and connects, buying him more time to arrive behind his party to generate a large shield of light and part the sea of fire that spews forth from the caster.
Cultivators are those who would learn powerful techniques to further their strength. They see every fight as an opportunity to grow, and every enemy is a treasure trove of experience waiting to be plundered. A cultivator often seeks physical perfection in themselves and their techniques.
