[Ryu-Kazuki]

A few weeks before the class came out, I had a feeling it would; Lispool, the storyline with Ashe, all that jazz gave it away if you think about it. Well I decided to script up ideas for the class, not officially knowing if it was coming out. Never finished it, but I threw out some skills ideas during the build up; and I figured maybe some of them could still be viable to add to the class. This is in no way meant to change the design of the class, rather than it is to extend onto it.

The skills being pitched for later addition;

Support Skills:

Mediaha:

Rank D Invocation

Cost: 40 FP, 4M

Target: Single Ally

The pinnacle of all healing spells, infused with both the power of Mercala and the user, their combined willpower can bring strength to those who are near death. Can only be used when target is at 25% HP or below, if at 0 HP they will be revived as well. Cannot be used when Silenced. Cannot use healing spells on that same target for 2 rounds after using Mediaha. If used on self, effects are halved after calculation.

Rank 1: Heals target by 25% of their max HP.

Rank 2: 35 FP. Heals target by 25% of their max HP + a bonus based on user's WIL/3.

Pariah of Illness:

Cost: 40 FP

Target: Single Ally

Reaching beyond and using the embrace of Mercala's purity itself, the Priest is able cure someone of all of their illnesses. But to do so is a sacrifice its own. All negative status effects (including incurable ones) are transferred from the target to the user, but their duration is also reset.
