Weapons Spellblade (Physical)
About this class
The Spellblade is someone who has fused their martial prowess with magical energy. They channel their mysticism through the weapons they wield, and can Awaken them to take their martial capabilities to new heights. They depend on their weapons just as much as they depend on their magic, but they combine the two to get the most out of both. While they are known for accomplishing great things, some people might find them weirdly attached to their weapon. However, when you get to know a Spellblade, you understand that their connection with their weapon is maintained to keep the world safe, and if it’s not maintained, things can get out of control. Still, the Spellblade is someone who learns from both magic, and weaponry, and is capable of learning from others as well.
