An introduction to Arga Dis, Blood and Bronze

[TheMenacer]

I doubt there'll be a consensus as far as pretender design goes. Arga Dis has enough magical diversity that it doesn't actually need a rainbow pretender, although the access to air and water as well as the research benefits are nice. The troops are strong enough that they don't strictly need an awake SC, as it seems as though gilgans could probably stop a trample or bless rush. The sacreds are recruitable anywhere, and since the mages are sacred it begs for an earth/low death bless, the troops have two attacks with a solid attack stat, which begs for the classic Fire/Water, and the gilgans are solid thugs with high HP, which begs for earth/nature.

My personal favorite at the moment is to go for a blood fountain with just enough paths to summon mages to diversify my magic and take a few minor blesses, preferably death, nature, and earth, and other than that just focus on scales. It's a solid all-purpose caster, researcher, and forger, plus it's thematic as hell.
