3!!Vanguard
4Vanguards thrive in close combat with their great survivability and their ability to incapacitate enemies. Though mainly limited to melee abilities they can deal a great amount of damage if left unchecked.
5----
6* AttackReflector: His [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Reflect]] ability... reflects ranged attacks.
7%%* BadassNormal
8%%* BrawnHilda: Female Vanguard in a nutshell.
9* CombatMedic: A big function of his Battle Shout EX ability is to heal himself and allies.
10* {{Combos}}: The purpose of his Rage buff is to improve his basic War Strike ability.
11* CounterAttack: Hitting them while they are using Reflect is pretty much this. An old ability of theirs, Van's Guard, reduced damage they themselves or an ally took for the duration. It was the Vanguard's main source of damage since it was their major method for getting Rage at the time.
12* EverythingsBetterWithSamurai: The Vanguard's look harkens to the look of a samurai. Almost all of the Vanguard's outfits include two flags strapped to their back not unlike a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sashimono sashimono]] [[note]]The Armoured Vanguard only has one flag, the Female Vanguard lacks any flags[[/note]]. The basic outfit has his hair tied in a ponytail above his head to resemble [[http://manlycurls.com/blog_new/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/samurai-hairstyle-japanese-men1.jpg the style frequently used by]] Creator/ToshiroMifune, uses shoulder-pads that are [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Hon_kozane_dou_gusoku.jpg distinctly longer than wider]], has sandals whose straps are clearly taking the shape of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geta_(footwear) geta]], and wears a fairly large and hanging fauld fitting the style of a samurai's.
13* FoeTossingCharge: His Intercept EX ability drags an enemy with him, stuns them, and gives the Vanguard Rage for an extra damaging hit while you're stunned. His Heroic Charge ultimate deals damage based on how far the Vanguard traveled before impact and incapacitates enemies near the impact spot.
14* FanDisservice: The default male Vanguard has a paunch... and the female Vanguard is more or less the same size. The left side of her face has a number of moles on it as well.
15* HeroicResolve: His Battle shout used to be a short-term damage bonus, a movement speed bonus, and ''being unkillable''. It was changed to heal himself and nearby allies for a flat amount along with a percentage of the health they've currently personally lost, slows enemies for a short while, and gives the Vanguard a Rage stack; increased by how many enemies he's hit with it.
16* JumpPhysics: The Vanguard's Leap Attack ability has him leap to a location, damaging, slowing and knocking back enemies hit by it. It used to incapacitate enemies hit instead at one point, even. He, of course, is unharmed by it.
17* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Uses an oval shield that is as tall as he is and around as wide by default. Some alternate weapon sets have a shield that is even ''wider''.
18* {{Ronin}}: The Renegade outfit wears loose clothing that is fairly in the style of the stereotypical {{Ronin}}.
19* SamuraiPonytail: Well, not explicitly a samurai... but only just.
20* ScreamingWarrior: Four out of their nine abilities has them yell while using them.
21* ShieldBash: An ability that knocks back enemies in a cone and 'demoralize's them, reducing their damage and healing done by 50% for four seconds (though hitting them for the duration of that reduces it by 25% per hit). This is also the logical conclusion as to why hitting the Vanguard with a melee attack while using Reflect stuns you.
22* ShouldersOfDoom: Large wooden shoulder-pads cover the length of their entire upper arms.
23* StoutStrength
24* TopHeavyGuy: The Vanguard's legs are about one-third of his total height though his upper body doesn't cut quite triangle shape typical of the trope and is instead more rectangular.
25* {{Tykebomb}}: Vanguards are chosen and trained from childhood.
26
27!!Thorn
28The Thorn is a tank to be reckoned with, able to dig and burrow through the ground while rooting and snaring enemies.
29----
30* CombatMedic: The EX ability Fertilize heals some health for anyone inside when it is cast.
31* CounterAttack: A sort of example for the Thorn's Treacherous Roots ability - it causes damage caused to gives you the defensive Regrowth buff, cancels damage taken and heals you for 50% of the damage it would of taken for the duration of the ability.
32* FanDisservice: The female thorns are very disturbing.
33* GreenThumb: But Thorn's are terrible monsters that use their plant powers to tear you apart, so don't mock them about it.
34* InTheHood: Their Officer outfit. [[FridgeLogic Yes, a monster officer, it's kinda strange to think about.]]
35* ManEatingPlant: Possibly, as it's background says nothing is found of people who were likely victims of the Thorn aside from a piece of ripped clothing and broken trees, but not outright stated.
36* SpikesOfVillainy: A minor example, but arguably in the spirit of it, the Thorn has protruding branches on it to let you know what a monster it is... and considering it appears to be an animated tree, it's a JustifiedTrope.
37* WasOnceAMan: An in-universe theory stated on their background page about them.
38* WhenTreesAttack: Yep.
39
40!!Metal Warden
41The Metal Wardens are the most fearsome defenders of the Anrodori. Since they were tasked with the protection of the mountains their people have constructed great fortifications in the mountain valleys. The Metal Wardens stand watch day and night at the walls and show any intruder that going near the living mountain is a bad idea.
42
43The Metal Wardens use their control over metal and magnetic forces to unleash concentrated bolts of plasma at their enemies and bend the magnetic forces of the area to their will. In combat they use their unique skills to keep their enemies at a distance from both themselves and their allies.
44----
45* ArmCannon
46* BeTheBall: The Magnetic Orb ability.
47* ChargedAttack: The Charged Bolt ability can be fired immediately, or have the button held down up to 1.1 seconds to do more damage, fire farther, and have a longer-lasting Spell Block effect.
48* {{Expy}}: She turns into a ball and uses an ArmCannon. The Metal Warden is totally [[VideoGame/{{Metroid}} Samus Aran]] - even has a similar haircut.
49* ExtraOreDinary: If the name didn't tip you off...
50* FanDisservice: Afflicted by a curse, the Metal Wardens have symmetrical shards of metal jutting out of their body along their spine.
51* {{Fanservice}}: The default Metal Warden wears a tubetop. The male Metal Warden is a WalkingShirtlessScene. The Corrupted Metal Warden has a NavelDeepNeckline and is a redhead.
52* GlowingEyesOfDoom: Blue ones.
53* HealingShiv: Their Recuperating Beam EX ability heals allies or the Metal Warden hit by it.
54* JumpPhysics: The Iron Jump ability has the Metal Warden jump up into the air and fall downward onto a location, damaging enemies and slowing them down to immobility, with their movement speed returning back over 3 seconds.
55* RollingAttack: Magnetic Orb's large speed boost can be useful for a handy escape, but the damage and knockback it provides off hitting enemies while transformed into it also disrupts enemies or can be comboed to make Energy Leash work to its fullest.
56* ShouldersOfDoom: Has large ones resembling ledges of stone jutting out from their shoulders. Considering their curse though, [[BodyHorror it may not actually be shoulder-pads on their shoulders]].
57* {{Stripperiffic}}: Basically wears a tube top for their torso. The male outfit is a WalkingShirtlessScene.
58* TakenForGranite: The Iron Claw ability freezes a target ally in place, stopping them from moving for a duration or up to a damage limit. However, they take much less damage, do damage back to enemies which damage them and gain energy off being hit.
59* WalkingShirtlessScene: The male Metal Warden.
60* YouWillNotEvadeMe: The ultimate ability Overcharge does damage to enemies in an area and lasts a few seconds longer to do more damage over time, until it implodes. Any enemies inside get pulled toward the center. Said enemies better hope they have abilities to escape it, lest they eat the implosion and possibly a fully-Charged Bolt too.
61
62!!Inhibitor
63The Inhibitors are zealous protectors of the religion and law in Trolobe. Jury, judge and enforcer, the Inhibitors are feared for their ruthless determination when enforcing their views and beliefs upon others.
64
65Inhibitors thrive in the midst of combat where they can catch incoming projectiles and use them to displace themselves on the battlefield, turning enemy projectile spells on their owners.
66----
67* AntiMagic: The Runic Discharge ability, to an extent. It causes the "Spell Block" effect which will block the first ability used by a hit target and enemies nearby the area when the ability is applied, but the ability can easily be non-magical.
68* BeehiveBarrier: The Rune Shield does this.
69* ChurchMilitant
70* {{Combos}}: Using the Inhibitor's Ohm or Sol Bolt after hitting with the other three times is important to their damage or survivability. Their ultimate can apply them all to enemies hit by it, so use consume them both after you're done firing your ultimate!
71* CounterAttack: The Wuju ability damages and incapacitates enemies hit on your path while you teleport to the enemy who hit you while using it.
72* JudgeJuryAndExecutioner: In their background, this seems to be their role.
73* {{Teleportation}}: The Waji ability teleports to a location, damaging and incapcitating enemies hit in your path between, and the Wuju ability teleports you behind the target who hit you while using it.
74
75!!Guardian
76A holy warrior wielding the two-handed great axe with ease, the Guardian symbolizes the unstoppable zeal of the Monastery, swiping at foes with huge, forceful blows.
77----
78* ActionGirl: Default skin.
79* ChurchMilitant
80* CounterAttack: Hitting them while they are using Disperse will refresh the cooldown of their Thrust ability while silencing nearby enemies.
81* HerdHittingAttack: There's a reasonable amount of them in the game, but the Guardian pretty much has only two abilities that can only hit one target at a time.
82* PrecisionGuidedBoomerang: The Axe of Zechs attack throws a ''large two-handed axe'' that will return back. Does a chunk of damage and has a small incapacitation effect when it hits, though it does less damage per target hit.
83* OneHitPolykill: The Axe of Zechs attack and their ultimate, Cyclone Charge, pierces through enemies.
84* SpinAttack: The Ultimate ability Cyclone Charge. [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin The name is rather indicative]].
85* {{Synchronization}}: A past version of the Guardian took some of the damage an ally hit by it would take to the Guardian, the damage the Guardian taking from it would be reduced first.
86* TakingTheBullet: A past version of the Guardian's Intervene ability was called Thrust and redirected some of the damage an ally would take (the damage the Guardian takes would be reduced as well) for a short amount of time after hitting them with the ability. Now, it heals them both. [[AcceptableBreaksFromReality We can't say why, but it works.]]
87
88!!Glutton
89Possessing both physical strength and earth magic, the Gluttons wreak havoc upon their enemies. Though mainly melee damage dealers, they have some ranged abilities as well as the ability to heal themselves.
90----
91* BlessedWithSuck: Gluttons are immensely stronger than the small people they came from and have earth magic... at the cost of perpetual hunger.
92* CounterAttack: Hitting a Glutton while they are using Stone Shield reduces the damage it causes greatly while doing doing damage to enemies nearby them.
93* DishingOutDirt: Their powers. It is not specifically stated, but it may explain their physical strength also.
94* FanDisservice: The female version of the Glutton is no better clothed or less fat than the male version.
95* FashionableAsymmetry: Has half of ShouldersOfDoom, a large spiked one on their left shoulder.
96* HyperactiveMetabolism: The Eat ability heals the Glutton.
97* InvulnerableKnuckles: The Glutton bloodline may have something attached to their right hand, but their left hand is left bare while they still punch with it. That might be related to their earth magic.
98* PowerFist: Gluttons have wooden spikes attached to their right fist default, with other more fancy alternate weapons.
99* StoutStrength
100* {{Stripperiffic}}: Gluttons wear little more than a skull over their head, pants and a large metal plate over their stomach... [[FanDisservice But they're totally fat and unattractive.]]
101* TakenForGranite: An intentional example which is a good thing - the Stone Shield ability, which renders players immobile for its duration or a damage limit, but greatly reduces damage taken, deals a lot of damage back and reduces energy gained from hitting them, dissuading players from considering touching them.
102* WalkingShirtlessScene: [[FanDisservice Oh god, why!?]]
103
104!!Sentinel
105Wielding massive hammers charged with raw spirit power, the Sentinels smash their opponents into the ground. Using the terrain to their advantage, the Sentinels are quick to close in on their enemies, each crushing blow limiting the healing received onto their victims.
106----
107
108[[/folder]]
109
110[[folder: '''Ranged Damage''']]
111!!Stormcaller
112Stormcallers use their powers to flash across the battlefield in a barrage of lightning strikes while dealing damage to multiple targets at the same time. Keeping their distance they will unleash intense storms that freeze and tear the flesh from their enemies’ bones.
113----
114* BadassBookworm: Hell, they float around with a large tome levitating above their left hand.
115* ChainLightning: Storm Bolt bounces for extra damage onto enemies if the enemies have Static applied to them. Charged Lightning also evokes the trope as you are encouraged to hit the two projectiles of it onto two targets to do extra damage and silence both of them.
116* CounterAttack: SubvertedTrope by the Lightning Shield ability. The ability will do more damage around you and heal you for more the ''less'' damage the shield takes by the end of its duration.
117* DoNotTouchTheFunnelCloud: Just avoid the projectile of the Eye of the Storm ability and you'll be fine.
118* FlashStep: The Flash ability, quickly moving the Stormcaller to a target location and applying [[StaticElectricity Static]].
119* FormerTeenRebel: The students that become Stormcallers all consist of unruly noble children that will not bend to the norms of nobility, later becoming wizards of incredible discipline. They are otherwise free to act as they will, but will have been conditioned to be at the beck and call of Storm Council that trained them.
120* HerdHittingAttack: The Stormcaller's abilities in general can hit multiple enemies and are encouraged to.
121* LockedAwayInAMonastery: What the Storm Academy basically is used for, only it leads to... a less mundane existence than living in a monastery tends to be.
122* ShockAndAwe: Duh.
123* ShoutOut: The Stormcaller's ultimate has him shoot lightning out of his hands for the duration. It is named [[Franchise/StarWars Emperor's Wrath]]. Yelling out "POWERRRRR! UNLIMITED POWERRRRRR!" is not mandatory during use, but we understand if you want to.
124* SpikyHair: Probably as much of a JustifiedTrope as you're going to get with the use of it in this instance since Stormcallers spend their time using electricity and applying Static to their enemies.
125* StaticElectricity: The Static effect - when hit by the Stormcaller's basic attack ability with the effect on you, it can bounce to the Stormcaller's enemies nearby if they are also affected by Static.
126
127!!Seeker
128Illusionary tricks coupled with different elemental shots makes the Seeker a resourceful and cunning ranged marksman, able to hunt down any prey on the battlefield.
129----
130* ElementalPowers: Of fire, lightning, ice, and earth. A past version of the Seeker's Ultimate had an effect called "Elemental Fusion" attached to it.
131* {{Fanservice}}: All the Seekers wear hoods. Except for the female one. A rather obvious reason why.
132* InTheHood: For the default Seeker, the officer Seeker, and the Skirmisher Seeker. Not the female one, though.
133* {{TrickArrow}}s: They include...
134** {{Multishot}}: Used to have an ability [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin called that]], knocking back and slowing targets hit.
135** [[ArrowsOnFire One on fire]], doing a chunk of damage and setting the area where it hit an enemy alight to cause extra damage while they are inside it. [[OneHitPolyKill Pierces through enemies.]] The old Marksmanship ultimate changed the ability to an Explosive Arrow, dealing more up front damage and knocking back on impact in a small area, but doesn't burn the ground or pierce through enemies.
136*** The Storm Arrow ultimate is similar, though it instead applies a damage over time with a lot of damage at the end of the duration on enemies instead of burning the ground.
137** [[RainOfArrows A rain of them]] onto a circle causing an ice effect, freezing enemies hit until damaged again and slowing them or any which enter in the area. The old Marksmanship ultimate changed the ice arrow turns to a projectile that is fired in a direction, but the freezing effect lacks much longer.
138** One with lightning, greatly slowing a target hit.
139* SuperMode: What used to be the Seeker's ultimate - Marksmanship reset all the Seeker's cooldowns, increases movement speed by 25%, makes their basic ranged attack travel and have a longer range, turns fire arrow into an explosive arrow, and ice arrow fires as a projectile that freezes much longer.
140
141!!Nomad
142The Nomads are fast, flexible and deadly. Their boomerangs can easily overwhelm the enemy with the ability to hit several targets at once. This, coupled with great crowd control abilities, helps them control the flow of the battle. However, they have a hard time fleeing from an enemy once cornered.
143----
144* BadassNormal: Technically this, though their in-game abilities imply a wind magic to them.
145* {{Bifauxnen}}: The Officer Nomad has cleavage, but still looks ''very'' androgynous. The piercing under their lip could be mistaken to be a soul patch.
146* BlowYouAway: Not actually stated in their background, but their abilities imply this.
147* DoNotTouchTheFunnelCloud: The Nomad's abilities can make a few tornadoes. Tornado Call makes an enemy hit by it be stuck up in the air while functionally being invincible for it's 3.2 second duration while an EX slows and damages enemies inside it. If you are not the person hit by it for the former ability, it does not effect you. If you are outside it's immediate radius which is shown by the tornado graphic for the latter, it also does not affect you.
148* PrecisionGuidedBoomerang: Half of the Nomad's abilities (though they use an actual boomerang, unlike the Guardian). The Nomad can throw ''two'' at once in different arcs and have them come back on the paths the other one traveled.
149* SpamAttack: The Nomad's ultimate consists of throwing many boomerangs really fast for its duration.
150* SuperSpeed: The Haste ability seems to be an example of this. It removes all movement-impairing effects, increases speed by 60%, and even reduces damage taken while using it by 40%.
151
152!!Igniter
153Igniters are masters of ranged combat, using their fire magic to deal large amounts of damage both to single targets and crowds. Extremely weak in close combat, the Igniters keep their distance by teleporting across the battlefield.
154----
155* ButtMonkey: The Igniter serves an unfortunate for a few bloodline items, such as being tied to the a stick to be on the back of the Master Chef Glutton outfit (which he will eat using his Meat and Eat ability) or shackled to the shield of the Vanguard's Sacrificial Armament weapon (still moving).
156* ConvectionSchmonvection: If you are not within the radius of the Igniter's abilities, you won't be affected. Even if that ability ''is'' called Volcano and makes a small one, just dodge it and you'll be fine.
157* KamehameHadoken: The Fire Beam EX seems to does this. Less possible damage on one target than the Fire Storm ability would do and costs energy, but it pierces through enemies, hits almost instantly and is a reliable way of inflicting Ignite on your opponents.
158* ManOnFire: Hitting enemies with Fire Storm, Fire Beam or Conflagration inflicting the Ignite debuff on them. Flames appear on them while Ignite is on them.
159* MundaneUtility: A former use of the trope - the Igniter bloodline sets his enemies on fire in the game, but their real job is to teleport around their people's underground city, maintaining the torches. Their background was later rewritten and that explicit use of the Igniters was removed.
160* OneHitPolykill: The Fire Beam EX and Conflagration ultimate hits through enemies.
161* PintsizedPowerhouse: The Igniter is at least half the size of the other Bloodlines. They are no less powerful.
162* PlayingWithFire: The [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Igniter's]] everything.
163* PsychopathicManchild: The Igniter has some funny and arguably immature mannerisms to go along with their fire powers - the running animations looks like skipping, their strange standing animation has them tilting their head to the left with their right palm up, and their idle animation is hopping up and down left and right on the spot.
164* SeriesMascot: An mask much like the Igniter's is prominently on the logo while he also features on the loading screen as well as a few cosmetic items. In the Battlerite spiritual sequel, his character {{Expy}} Ashka continues this when had his mask display on the former logo and Ashka features frequently in promotional or loading screen artwork.
165* {{Telepathy}}: A power of all of the people of the Igniters, the Tioko.
166* WreathedInFlames: Living Flame does this to the Igniter while making them invulnerable and immaterial for the duration of it, doing some damage and knocking enemies back near them after the ability ends. Conflagration does this trope to the Igniter again, only much ''more'' and having them travel along a line. The Igniter heavily damages and inflicts Ignite on enemies he passes through with Conflagration.
167* UglyCute: Sure he's a midget entirely covered up in an intimidating tribal mask and furs, but the small stature and funny animations makes him rather endearing.
168
169!!Gunner
170The Gunners can deal an immense amount of damage to a single target at a long range while ensuring their own survival through stealth and cunning tricks.
171----
172* BadassNormal
173* ChargedAttack: The Execute ability in a nutshell. Takes longer to start being used than any other ability in the game, but does a large chunk of damage, stuns, has a far range, and travels very fast.
174* EyepatchOfPower: On the Gunner officer outfit.
175* GunsAkimbo: With two... flintlock-esque carbines.
176* HandCannon: The general size of their main weapons isn't large enough to resemble a rifle or musket, but the barrels are quite long.
177* MacrossMissileMassacre: The Gunner ultimate fires 5 missles in a few seconds.
178* RocketJump: A Gunner ability. It doesn't damage themselves [[FriendlyFireproof or allies]], only enemies.
179
180!!Engineer
181Engineers bring a vast array of tricks and gadgets to the field of battle, ranging from shrink rays to flamethrowers and jetpacks.
182----
183* AnachronismStew: In a nutshell.
184* BadassBookworm: Fights with gadgets!
185* BadassNormal
186* {{EMP}}: An ability. Slows enemies in the area of impact, damages a target directly hit by the projectile. [[AnachronismStew No, We don't think there are electronics in the game at all.]]
187* JetPack: The Engineer has an ability to use this for an instant. It leaves oil in it's wake, to the detriment of ''[[FriendlyFireproof only]]'' the Engineer's enemies.
188* MoreDakka: The Engineer's ultimate ability is firing a machine gun. While its 3 second duration makes it unlikely you'll end up hitting the entire thing, its maximum potential damage is a significant 1440 in a game where the health ranges to 1600-2100.
189* PlayingWithFire: The Engineer has a Flame Thrower ability. Use it only enemies hit by your JetPack's oil for extra damage over time.
190* ShortRangeShotgun: While the Engineer's Boomstick can do more damage in one hit than pretty much any other ability mapped to the left-mouse button, it requires being close to a target to make the most of it, compared to other ranged damage bloodlines.
191* ShrinkRay: A Shrink Device ability. The EX instead inverts it and enlarges a target ally.
192* ShoutOut: His [[Franchise/{{Terminator}} T-800 Prototype]] outfit.
193* SpentShellsShower: This is the icon for the Engineer's Machine Gun ultimate ability.
194* SwissArmyWeapon: The large object Engineers' heft around appear to be able to act as a shotgun, a flamethrower, [[ShrinkRay shrink device]], machine gun, [[AnachronismStew EMP]] deployer and is capable of firing large slugs.
195[[/folder]]
196
197[[folder: '''Melee Damage''']]
198!!Stalker
199The Stalker is an agile warrior of considerable prowess. Switching in and out of view and shifting position constantly while employing uncanny melee moves the Stalkers are incredibly nimble skirmishers.
200----
201* AllEncompassingMantle: Though certain parts of it are strapped to the Stalker's arms, presumedly to allow movement. The Stalker's Cloak ability implies it may be capable of acting as armour since it removes a debuff when ability and reduces damage for its duration.
202* BadassCape: Hell ya, that cloak looks cool.
203* BifurcatedWeapon: The [[DualWielding two blades]] attached to their arms has also act as crossbows.
204* [[BowAndSwordInAccord Crossbows And Sword In Accord]]
205* {{Combos}}: Their ability have a lot of damage increasers for themself after being used, so make sure those abilities aren't the only thing you hit with after those increasers are up.
206* DualWielding: The Stalker uses two large blades attached to their wrists... [[BifurcatedWeapon with crossbows attached to them.]] Their M2 ability fires them both once, one after another.
207* FlashStep: The ultimate, Shadow Cloak and Shadow Step ability of the Stalker. The first and third allows you to cause extra damage for a bit after use. The Puncturing Strike ability of the Stalker does this ''three times'' from a starting point and a location, damaging and incapacitating enemies in between.
208* InvisibilityCloak: The Shadow Cloak EX ability. It normally reduces damage in the slot that's not an EX.
209* TeleportCloak: It's not entirely clear if they use it for this, but they do have quite the cool cloak to go along with copious teleporting abilities.
210* TeleportSpam: Use the Puncturing Strike, Deviate and Shadow Step abilities for all your excessive-amounts-of-teleporting needs.
211* SuperMode: Their ultimate teleports them to a location, and applies an 8-second effect on them that increases the damage of their next basic attack, and causes hitting with their basic attack to reset the cooldown of their teleporting Deviate ability (which also increases their damage for a short time after using). Casting Deviate during the duration of the ultimate resets the aforementioned effect. In other words, TeleportSpam to the extreme.
212
213!!Spear Master
214The Spear Masters are experts at dealing melee damage and avoiding enemy damage through improving their own capabilities and incapacitating their opponents.
215----
216* BadassNormal
217* CounterAttack: Their Kunju ability will slow you, damage you and teleport them behind you should you hit them while they're using it.
218* FlashStep: Their EX, damaging and locking the cooldowns of enemies for a short duration hit in the path.
219* FuumaShuriken: The Spear Master's Shuriken Throw ability's shuriken is rather conspicuous to see even from the game's bird's eye view.
220* SpinAttack: The Whirling Blade ability incapacitates enemies hit while causing 120 damage, and the Spear Master's ultimate, Whirlwind, does it for an extended amount of time while the Spear Master cannot be stopped from moving save for death while using it.
221* SuperSpeed: The Fleetfoot ability causes the Spear Master to move faster but do less damage on attacks, and makes them ''invincible'', for the duration.
222
223!!Reaver
224The Reaver is a fearsome master of melee combat, employing an oversized sword together with intoxicated martial arts that enable him to stay within melee range and control the fight in his favor provided he plays his cards right.
225----
226* BoozeBasedBuff: Their ultimate is more or less this - they move faster for its duration, swing repeatedly in an arc in front of them which does more damage and knocks back targets hit than their normal sword strikes would do. An InvertedTrope by their Drunken Haze ability, which causes enemies hit by it to move and attack slower until they take damage or the effect runs out.
227* {{BFS}}: You read 'oversized sword', right?
228* CounterAttack: Their parry ability cancels direct attacks to them and [[FridgeLogic sends a projectile of dust back to the opponent which damages and incapacitates them]]. [[MST3KMantra Don't think about it]].
229* DrunkenMaster: The ultimate is basically described as four wide swings made while drunk.
230* {{Fanservice}}: Blatant with the female outfit, who has cleavage and thighs exposed by their clothing.
231* GrapplingHookPistol: The Reaver just throws a chain, actually. Nonetheless, it brings the hit target and them closer together and locks the cooldowns of the targets for a few seconds.
232* HiredGuns: Reavers primarily have themselves employed as mercenaries. They are not know for trustworthiness if things aren't going well for their side, however...
233* LifeDrain: Using the Vigilance ability causes them to heal for all damage they do in addition to taking less for the duration - however, the damage they ''can'' do is halved.
234* MasterSwordsman
235* ScarfOfAsskicking: Used for the default, renegade and officer outfits.
236* ShoutOut: Two of the Reaver's abilities have the exact same names as two from the Pandaren Brewmaster from ''VideoGame/WarcraftIII: The Frozen Throne'' (and possibly the Pandaren Brewmaster character Mangix from ''VideoGame/DefenseOfTheAncients'' since it has the same names for similar abilities) - Drunken Haze and Drunken Brawler.
237** An ability in which they jump into the air and strike when they land is called [[Franchise/FinalFantasy Dragoon Strike]].
238** One can't help but think of [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyX Auron]] when they see Reaver's Renegade outfit...
239* StockingFiller: The female outfit has this.
240* SupernaturalMartialArts: Their basic Roundhouse Kick ability skirts this trope for some by dashing awfully far twice despite holding an enormous sword, but their old Explosive Kick ability took this up a notch by knocking back enemies hit, doing the same dashing three times, ''and'' doing much more damage in an area of effect from, well, causing explosions with a kick. It was replaced by Spell Block Kick, which manages to be a very weird version of this trope as well.
241* WalkingShirtlessScene: On the default outfit.
242
243!!Ravener
244Raveners bash enemies with their dual maces, aggressively moving across the battlefield in a fury of blows.
245----
246* AttackReflector: Half of the point of the Spinning Strike ability.
247* BadassNormal: In the background, though their in-game abilities named to seem to use a sort of earth magic.
248* {{Combos}}: Hitting with consecutive Spike Strikes increase the damage by one for every hit up to two and stuns for 2.5 seconds on the third hit.
249* CounterAttack: Don't shoot at the Ravener while they are using Spinning Strike. Don't hit them while they are using Earth Shield next to lest you practically take more damage than you are causing.
250* DishingOutDirt: Some implications of it from their abilities, though their ability Thunder Strike (which is basically just throwing a mace) shows it might be just cool names.
251* DualWielding: With two large maces.
252* GroundShatteringLanding: Their Earth Crush ultimate. If the damage doesn't kill you, the massive debuffs to your capabilities from it might anyway.
253* HitboxDissonance: It's been found some ranged attacks will reflect back to you if you're being damaged by the Spinning Strike ability, even if it's hitting you from behind and you're trying to shoot in the opposite direction...
254* PunchedAcrossTheRoom: The Crude Strike ability knocks a target away from the direction the Ravener approached from. Hope your team can survive without you while you're gone.
255* SpinAttack: The Ravener's Spinning Strike... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin unsurprisingly]]. Though the real point of it is reflecting ranged attacks and moving faster for it's duration.
256
257!!Ranid Assasin
258The Ranid Assassins are agile warriors, using stealth and acrobatics to give them an edge on the battlefield. Their blades can deal high damage over a short period of time while their poisons keep foes from getting away. Foregoing armor for mobility, they rely on deception to stay alive.
259----
260* BadassNormal
261* BackStab: Attacking with your Blade Flurry ability while Camouflage is on you stuns the target hit and makes you land an extra strike.
262* {{Combos}}: Apply the Vicious Poison debuff from your Blowdarts ability, then hit them with the Toxin Bomb ability to slow them even longer and do more damage!
263* DualWielding: Holds two different blades in their hands. One of the them held is larger and longer, and SticksToTheBack while they have two others attached to their belt that are smaller. One of those smaller ones are held in the other hand. Against realistic depictions, they hold the larger one in their forward hand.
264* JumpPhysics: Jumps high in the air, twice, with the Frog Leap ability, dealing damage to a target when they hit the ground each time. To make more sense, the damage is entirely from them hitting an enemy with their blades rather than the impact of the fall.
265
266!!Harbinger
267Harbingers heal themselves through dealing melee damage, complementing their potent debilitating magic.
268----
269* {{Combos}}: Anything that applies the Hemorrhage debuff has the added effect of making your basic Shadow Slash ability also heal you for part of the damage done. Using the Shadow Bolt/Shadow Curse (EX) ability applies the Amplify debuff on a target hit, greatly increasing damage taken for its duration.
270* DarkIsNotEvil: The Harbingers' people are more or less described as this. They are ''very'' territorial, though, so stay out their land.
271* LifeDrain: Just one of their abilities does not do this or set up for them to do this.
272* SuperMode: Their ultimate reduces the damage they take by 25% and massively increases the damage they'll deal with most of their stuff while also improving how much they'll heal.
273
274!!Headhunter
275Headhunters attack with a whirlwind of vicious scythes and snarling maws, using the pressure of relentless onslaught to overwhelm their enemies on the battlefield. But at the same time they can also be elusive and hard to catch when facing strong opposition.
276----
277* {{Combos}}: The point of their Harvest Blood ability to get its cooldown reset by consuming the Open Wound debuff off enemies hit, and the point of most of their other abilities is to apply Open Wound.
278%%* CounterAttack
279* DualWielding: Uses two axes as weapons.
280* PrecisionGuidedBoomerage: The Headhunter can toss two axes in two arcs that will return on the other one's path like the Nomad. [[ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks Yes, their axes]].
281* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: Well, axes. Either way, the Headhunter tosses axes liberally, on three separate abilities.
282[[/folder]]
283
284[[folder: '''Healers''']]
285!!Grimrog
286The Grimrog is a melee/healer hybrid capable of protecting his allies with both blessings and healing wards while at the same time posing a huge threat to enemy champions with the use of crippling curses and frenzied melee attacks.
287----
288* BrainsAndBrawn: The Grim heals and curses from afar, while the Rog does the close-combat and literally carries the Grim atop his back.
289* CombatMedic: Standard for healers in ''Bloodline Champions''. The Grimrog's main attack ability doesn't do much damage, but casts and cooldowns down exceptionally fast to let them keep mobile against you and his main healing ability can also apply negative effects to enemies that will only work if they are affected by curses that you place on them from hitting other offensive abilities on them.
290* DualWielding: The Rog uses WolverineClaws for both hands.
291* HollywoodVoodoo: The Grim's flavor, though he has no [[{{VoodooDoll}}s Voodoo Dolls]].
292* InconvenientSummons: The Gringol's Gate ability can cause this, placing one of the portals onto you to put you closer to his team or away from him.
293* TapOnTheHead: The Rampage EX ability has the Grim do this 6 times on a target hit, incapacitating for a short time to stop the target from using anything that isn't an instant-cast ability .
294* {{Teleportation}}: Gringol's Gate, creating two portals between a line in front of you. If anyone goes into one of the portals, they get teleported into the other one.
295* SpinAttack: Claw Flurry is basically one, also charging along a line.
296* WolverineClaws: The Rog wears two blades of this type [[DualWielding on both hands]].
297
298!!Psychopomp
299The Psychopomps control the battlefield through healing and powerful debilitating effects. While weak on their own, their abilities make allied attacks more effective.
300----
301* CombatMedic: Standard for healers in ''Bloodline Champions''. [[GameBreaker The ultimate]] of the Psychopomp makes them especially dangerous to your health.
302* GranolaGirl: With her headband, sticks in her long hair, and clothing that resembles an Inuit's, the default outfit looks a lot like some sort of hippie. The male outfit more or keeps that look while being shirtless and having a lengthy hippie beard.
303* GuardianEntity: The Psychopomp ultimate is called Guardian Spirit. It used to reduce how long debuffs last on the Psychopomp while mimicking their Soul Bolt, Essence Renewal and Spiritual Link ability for 8 seconds, ''[[GameBreaker meaning they damage and heal twice as much while being harder to crowd control]]''. It has since been nerfed to be a overall 75% increaser (all damage and healing done while Guardian Spirt is reduced by 15% and then doubled from that by the Guardian Spirit) instead while the debuff reducer was nerfed as well.
304* MakeMeWannaShout: The Terrifying Scream ability slows enemies and spell blocks the next ability they use, the Death Scream EX make them run around in fear.
305* NewAgeRetroHippie: Their appearance takes some aspects from this trope's look - they have long braided hair (even has ''sticks'' stuck around in it) and wear a headband. The headband's use is also rather arbitrary since they wear a parka hood.
306* {{Psychopomp}}: Duh?
307* SpiritWorld: While not stated, this is a logical assumption as to where a target affected by The Other Side ability goes for the duration of it. It makes the target invunerable, invisible, move faster, invisible to enemies, and heals themself and nearby allies after the effect ends.
308* SuperMode: Their Guardian Spirit increases the amount of damage and healing they'll do by a lot for it's duration.
309* {{Synchronization}}: The Spiritual Link ability damages enemies hit and causes them to be afflicted by Soul Bind, which makes them take 20% of the damage an ally also affected by Soul Bind takes.
310* WalkingShirtlessScene: The male outfit.
311* WhiteMage
312
313!!Herald of Insight
314Possessing strong support abilities the Heralds warp space and time, turning their enemies against themselves while keeping their allies protected.
315----
316* AttackReflector: His Chronoflux ability does this... though the projectiles take a while to start returning to the same direction, so careful enemies can avoid the backfire very easily.
317* CombatMedic: Standard for healers in ''Bloodline Champions''. Heralds may not be the best one-on-one bloodline, but are far from helpless.
318* PermaStubble: The Officer outfit has this.
319* TimeMaster: Though not as powerful as other examples, part of his powers is explained from manipulation of time. He even has an ability to go back in time three seconds, putting him where he was then and healing himself.
320* WhiteMage
321
322!!Dryad
323The Dryads support their allies with strong shields and the healing power of nature while keeping the enemy at bay using mind controlling songs. They have proven to be formidable enemies in combat, as even the smallest seed can break the mightiest boulder.
324----
325* CombatMedic: Standard for healers in ''Bloodline Champions''. Due to the Dryad's lack of escapes or easily-used crowd-control effects, she is fairly dependent on maintaining Confidence stacks from her main attack ability to dodge and evade the enemy.
326* DifficultButAwesome: The Dryad has no quick escapes and their crowd-control takes a fair amount of time to use outside of her ultimate. But playing her right makes her difficult to even hit while she runs around healing her allies and damaging you with impunity.
327* GreenThumb: Three of her abilities' start with "Nature's". Self-explanatory from there.
328* MusicalAssassin: Her Song of Despair ability is her main attack ability, she heals mostly with Soothing Melody, and her Suggestive Tune allows her to temporarily control you.
329* SongOfCourage: Funnily enough, hitting Song of Despair also applies a buff called Confidence upon the Dryad.
330* WillOTheWisp : Nature's Companion is described as making a forest wisp travel to a location.
331
332!!Blood Priest
333Able to control the flow of blood through dark perverted magic, the Blood Priest is both a benevolent healer to his team, and a dark twisted plague on the enemy.
334----
335* BadPowersBadPeople: Shadowy-looking magic out of the wazoo and summons plagues of locusts to attack you. They're as bad as they sound like.
336* CastFromHitpoints: Their main healing ability will damage themselves unless they maintain Darkness stacks from using their main attack ability.
337* CombatMedic: Standard for healers in ''Bloodline Champions''. The Blood Priest will actually [[CastFromHitpoints lose some health]] from casting their main healing ability (though still pretty easily taken care of by just healing himself) unless stacks of Darkness from using their main attack ability is maintained in combat.
338* CounterAttack: Hitting a target while the Blood Priest's shield is on them will just damage you if you're too close.
339* FanDisservice: {{Stripperiffic}} in all forms. Fat and unattractive in all forms also.
340* FatBastard: He has unambiguously evil powers and is absurdly fat.
341* ThePowerOfBlood
342* {{Stripperiffic}}: All outfits for the Blood Priest doesn't involve a shirt. [[FanDisservice They are also all fat and ugly.]]
343* WhiteMage
344
345!!Astronomer
346Controlling the aspects of stellar bodies, the Astronomer is a healer to be reckoned with. Specializing in close range combat operations, the Astronomer is no stranger to direct application of his instruments on enemies.
347----
348* BadassBookworm: The Astronomer's abilities seem to be from a sort of LightEmUp and other astronomical powers, but it actually happens from the use of scientific tools that are very carefully calibrated...somehow.
349* BadassNormal: As it turns out, the Astronomer's abilities are from using esoteric tools.
350* CombatMedic: Standard for healers in ''Bloodline Champions''. Especially since his main attack ability is melee range.
351* CounterAttack: Hitting an Astronomer using their R ability will blind close-by enemies and increase their speed. Hope you weren't close.
352* RingsOfDeath: The Astronomer uses a wickedly large one as their weapon.
353
354!!Alchemist
355With their strong support capabilities the Alchemist can turn the tide of any battle using their potent healing and incapacitating abilities.
356----
357* ActionGirl: Default skin. May be a healer, but it still quite a CombatMedic.
358* BadassBookworm: Their abilities seem to be all from (sort of...) scientific concoctions. Though the Barrier ability's appearance somewhat breaks that trend.
359* BadassNormal: Scientific creations are their weapons.
360* BlindedByTheLight: The Flash Powder EX ability blinds enemies hit for 2.8 seconds.
361* CombatMedic: Standard for healers in ''Bloodline Champions''. Other bloodlines may generally win against them if fighting one-on-one, but they won't make it easy on you.
362* StatusBuffDispel: The Clarity Potion does this, removing negative effects [[FriendlyFireproof (for allies)]], and positive effects (for enemies).
363* StatusEffects: Probably utilizing the most amongst the other bloodlines in the game.
364* WhiteMage: The default Alchemist's healing role.
