Template: Major Arcana (Corrupt Classes)

Note: Despite feminist or masculine titles, any gender can be any arcana.

Techs: Every class can start off with 2 original techs or abilities if they so desire. Every 100 posts, along with the attacks the class gives them, they can learn one more ability or tech. The exception to this would be the Fool. See that section for specific rules.

Attack – 3
Defense – 3
Magick – 3

Abilities:
Starting: Shapeshift – An ability where the user can transform their body or parts of their body to whatever they wish. However, it will be corrupted from what one is used to.

100 Posts: Mimic – Can copy an attack. This version is weaker then the original attack.

100 Posts: Learn – An ability where the Fool can learn enemy attacks if struck at the moment Learn is available to them. They must survive the hit.

Analysis: The Fool is the most balanced of all the classes. It excels as nothing, nor is it weak at nothing. However, the Fool, much like the Blue Mage, is capable of learning any attacks. As such, the Fool can essentially evolve into anything it wishes, provided they invest the time for it.

Notes: Every time the Fool gets 100 posts, instead of it l tech or ability it can learn, it can learn 2.

Abilities:
300 posts: Geomancy – A passive ability that doubles elemental attacks.

Analysis: Despite having poor physical abilities and speed, the Magician is strong for magic based attacks and spell casting, capable of long-range massive damage. If experienced enough, Geomancy can prove to be their strongest passive ability, doubling the power of all their spells. This class is very similar to Black Mages.

The Priestess (II)
Stats:
Attack – 1
Defense – 2
Magick – 4
Magick Defense –5
Speed – 3

Attacks:

Starting: Telekinesis- This ability allows the Priestess to move objects with their mind.

Analysis: The Priestess is known for having support abilities. Not only does it function as a scout, but the psychic abilities can also prove to be very strong. However, they are very fragile to physical abilities, which is why their status as support units is important. This class resembles that of Psychics.


The Empress (III)

Stats:
Attack – 1
Defense – 2
Magick –5
Magick Defense – 4
Speed – 3

Attacks:

Starting: Summon Corrupt Alpha – Gives them the ability to summon Level 1 Corrupt from 0-XII Arcana.

100 Posts: Summon Corrupt Beta – Gives the ability to summon Level 1 Corrupt from XIII-XX Arcana.

Analysis: The Empress, much like the Summoner class, must summon corrupt to her aid. While she lacks any real skills of her own, she can develop her own special summons with time. Definitely needs support, but that’s why she summons others to help her in combat.


The Emperor (IV)

Stats:
Attack – 4
Defense – 3
Magick – 2
Magick Defense – 3
Speed – 3

Abilities:

300 Posts: Accessory Crush – An energy sword pillar aimed at an accessory. By passes any abilities this accessory might give and temporarily disables it.

Analysis: A slow yet powerful class that specializes in using brute strength to distort and shatter weaponry, armor, helmets, and accessories. When these items are “shattered,” they are no longer available to the user. However, after 2 posts, these items will reform to the user who lost them. The Emperor specializes in crushing any weapons, allowing its allies to hopefully finish the opponent off quickly before the items can reform. It is closely similar to a Job class called Divine Knight.


The Hierophant (V)

Defense – 2
Magick – 4
Magick Defense – 4
Speed – 2

Attacks:
Starting: Sleep – Inflicts Sleep on a target.

250 Posts: Protectga – Upgrade of Protect. Casts Protect on all allies.

Abilities:
300 Posts: Spellbound – A passive ability that causes buffs and debuffs to 2 extra turns longer.

Analysis: The Heirophant functions much like a Green Mage. It specializes in casting debuffs and buffs, allowing it to indirectly attack opponents. However, as an offensive unit, you won’t find much here unless you develop techniques to give it such. It is great as a support unit.


The Lovers (VI)

Stats:
Attack – 3
Defense – 2
Magick – 2
Magick Defense – 4
Speed – 4

Attacks:
Starting: Cupid- A damaging attack that has a 50% chance of inflictingCharm.

200 Posts: Lightning Strike – An incredibly fast projectile attack that ignores defenses.

200 Posts: Double Shot – Fires two incredibly strong projectile attacks in a row.

Abilities:
300 Posts: Concentrate – Passive Ability that increases accuracy.

Analysis: The Lovers is the best long-range user of the Corrupt. With high accuracy and speed, they can snipe at opponents, either inflicting status ailments or disabling movement and action. The only downside to them is that their defense is low, and as such, they cannot do well at close range. They are mostly akin to the Archer and Sniper, but excels at the use of any projectile based weapon.


The Chariot (VII)

Stats:
Attack: 4
Defense: 3
Magick: 2
Magick Defense: 2
Speed: 4

Abilities:

Starting: Roar – A roar that weakens the defenses of the opponents.

Starting: Smite of Rage –A strike attack that has a 25% chance of inflicting random status effects. To determine this, roll 2 die. If the result is 4, 8, or 12, then roll another die. The following will be determined: 1 = Silence, 2 = Charm, 3 = Confusion, 4 = Sleep, 5 = Poison, 6 = Blind.

Starting: Beast Talk – Gives the user the ability to communicate with beasts.

100 Posts: Berserk – Casts Berserk on a target.

100 Posts: Ground Shaker – Shoots a physical shockwave that renders the Earth in a straight line.

200 Posts: Aura Blast – A range physical attack that does massive damage.

300 Posts: Backdraft – An intense fire attack that inflicts damage on the opponent.

Analysis: Beast-like, strong, and fast, The Chariot class is a physical class that specializes in hitting foes hard and fast. Using Magick like Berserk, The Chariot Corrupt can truly be vicious, strong, and unpredictable. Unfortunately, their magick resistance and defense are low. The Chariot is akin to Fighters/Berserkers.


The Strength (VIII)

Stats:
Attack: 4
Defense: 3
Magick: 3
Magick Defense: 2
Speed: 3

Attacks:

Starting: Power Crush – A suppressing attack that does damage while lowering the target’s attack power.

300 Posts: Over Power – A powerful physical attack that breaks through any defenses. Close range.

Abilities:
Starting: Inner Strength – The more damage The Strength takes, the stronger the attacks will be.

300 Posts: Chariot Control – The Strength is special in the fact that they can summon a special Chariot based Corrupt to their aid.

Analysis: Another physical class, much like the Chariot. However, they function a bit differently. Rather than using all out attacks, Strength Corrupt prefer to debuff the opponent’s stats while attacking at the same time, much like the job class Raptor. This allows them to last longer in battle, being a risk/reward type of fighter.

The Hermit (IX)

Stats:
Attack: 3
Defense: 2
Magick: 4
Magick Defense: 4
Speed: 2

Attacks:

Starting: Warp – Can change weak enemies or allies into items.

300 Posts: Item Reverse – Reverses item effects. For example, a Potion would do damage rather than heal.

Abilities:

Start: Item Lore – Doubles the effectiveness of items.

200: Maintenance – Can instantly fix broken items.

Analysis: The Hermit is essentially the alchemist of the Corrupt. They have the ability to double the potency of items, as well as transmute and cause status effects to opponents. They have low speed, but it’s to compensate for the fact that their Item Reverse, once learned, can bring down even the strongest opponents with little effort.


The Wheel of Fortune (X)

Stats:
Attack: 2
Defense: 2
Magick: 4
Magick Defense: 3
Speed: 4

Starting: Status Wheel – A roulette wheel that spins around, choosing status effects randomly. The following could occur: Sleep, Poison, Confusion, Berserk, Healing, and Petrify.

100 Posts: Die Attack – Rolls a large die. The higher the number, the more damage the opponent takes as it explodes.

200 Posts: Support Wheel – A roulette wheel that spins around, choosing one of six buff spells: Haste, Reflect, Protect, Shell, Faith, or Brave.

Abilities:

300 Posts: Auto-Regen – Gives the user a regeneration status.

Analysis: The Gambler of the Corrupt, the Wheel of Fortune relies on luck to deal damage to opponents. While it is very fast, and very unpredictable, it has low defenses.

Note: When gambling for attacks, use a six-sided die. 1-6 = the results listed in the order.

Stats:
Attack: 3
Defense: 3
Magick: 2
Magick Defense: 4

300 Posts: Cross Counter – An attack that can break through any defense. Close Range, and is much weaker if there is no defense to break.

Analysis: Much like the Monk class, the Justice Arcana have the ability to channel energy through their body. They have both access to light and dark attacks to maintain a balance, and are known to use their hands. However, even though they have access to great techniques, they have only average offense stat.

While they have average attack and magic attack, as well as below average defenses, their speed is amazingly high. They may not be able to take hits, but they can truly be dangerous if underestimated.

Analysis: Much like the Sage class, this Arcana has access to very powerful non-elemental magic. Upon having great speed and great magick growths, the Star can definitely be a force to be reckoned with. However, compared to other classes, they don’t have too many options in attack choices, and they also have below average offense and defense.


The Moon (XVIII)

Stats:
Attack: 2
Defense: 4
Magick: 4
Magick Defense: 3
Speed: 2

300 Posts: Reflectga – Upgrade of Reflect. Casts Reflect on several targets.

Abilities:

Starting: Levitate – Always floating.

Analysis: Much like the Time Mage and the Hanged Man, the Moon uses time magick. However, where as the Hanged Man manipulates time itself, the Moon manipulates space with its gravity spells. It may be slow, but it has the ability to take off chunks of the opponent’s health relatively easy. The only problem it might have is following up as gravity spells can’t kill.

With its mix of support and offensive spells and physical attacks, the Judgment can last quite awhile in battle. Even though its offenses are below average, both defenses are outstanding.
