Skills

• The shield is able to block both physical and magical damage.
• When cast on target under Drawbuckle effect, the healing applies on linked allies but the shield doesn't.
• Since the shield's power depends on Richter's STR attribute and target's INT attribute, allies with high INT stat will gain more shield power than the much desired healing.
  • Combined with Richter's high STR, the shield may grant target shield power more than the healing rate of this spell.

• Effectively decreases damage taken by 50-75% depending on how many linked allies present and alive.
• Healing effects will be applied on linked allies without being distributed evenly.
  • Meaning each linked allies may fully benefit from healing items or spells.
• Since the spell reacts on instances of damage/healing taken, AoE abilities may causing a chain of reactions that may diminishes the benefit of this spell upon linked, affected allies.

• Cleave attack carries on-attack effects and elements.
• Cleave damage is physical.

• This passive works on all enemies as long as Richter is present in battle.
• At max level, Ancient's Insight renders enemies' armor and magic resistance irrelevant, making any kind of damage will be fully taken.
• Doesn't work on damage amplification/reduction effects.

• This skill has 1-turn channeling time.
  • Once cast, Richter is unable to move until he successfully casts the skill.
  • The skill may be canceled if Richter receives 9 hits while channeling or interrupted by disables (stun, freeze, entangle, paralyze, sleep, etc.), wasting a turn and MP spent on the skill.
• Sleep and disarm from this skill can be purged/dispelled.

Lore

The Town Guard whose origin is much older than the archaic Goldian Empire, Richter is one of notable–and surviving–Ancient kin who, if not too talkative, a kind and hearty one. His early days are as vague as his kin, but one clear thing about Richter: he is true to his calling and does his jobs well… according to his own account.

As the survivor of the presumed extinct race, he was then forced to serve in the Great Library as a procurer of knowledge in the aftermath of Mad Queen Incident; a price he had to pay for what his kin and his lover had done in The Rift. Such punishment that turned out benefited him more than he expected; because of the task given by the Great Archivists in his service time for the Library, Richter had stumbled upon realms interconnected in The Rift and learned much knowledge along the way. Some of those were proven useful in his long, arduous tasks of procuring books from uncountable realms. Eventually, as a reward for his service for the Library, Richter was permitted to return to Runemilenia–also known as Realm of Many Names or Noneiffica; his place of origin–with one condition: he must record the accounts, events and various things happening in his home realm. And thus, all accounts and records from the Goldian era to Eremidian era are being written in an enormous journal of his, and probably events from some more eras that follow will be found in it. Richter truly put the gift from Worldsmith into good use.

In a tie with the Eremidia Kingdom, Richter has been around since its first days until now; he had outlived many people, had seen the Kingdom's better days and received several mementos from various places around the Fandorum, including his Town Guard title and the runeblade of immense power that is now dubbed as Mournblade. All of those events and occurrences are recorded in the book of the history of Eremidia as well as in his personal journal.

In the time of Imperial Simulacrum, Richter volunteered himself and signed into the second expedition team which then embarked towards the Herald of World's End; his response to the calling of distress from the Kingdom after the previous expedition team went unheard of for more than a month. It didn't take a long time until Richter realized the Herald of World's End is more than a gateway into The Rift–it also heralds the uprising of malevolent force deep from The Abyss which threatening Runemilenia's existence… and his worst nightmare.

Richter is rather slow in combat, but he harnesses a set of Runic spells which can be used to aid himself and his allies in combats–healing allies, preventing allies from dying by linking their lives to himself and providing a protective barrier to allies. His sluggishness is offset by a gift bound to him that diminishes enemies' defense and a groundbreaking strike that shatters anyone fools enough to withstand such an enormous blow.
