Usually, adventurers who are deemed worthy to possibly become an immortal are created and tested on, then thrown out as an empty vessel for them learn and fight on their own, crawling back as a beast to serve the queen. These formidable fighter-mages employ elegantly curved blades for close combat, while decimating their enemies from afar with fell magic mastered from their opponents. Created by Kayos from Discord.

- Merchant (Thief archetype): Removed the racial restriction. Sorry Hypellos.
- Mesmerist (New Illusionist archetype): Experts at charm and deceit, mesmerists compel others to heed their words and bend to their will. Illusions give mesmerists the tools they need to manipulate others—usually for their own personal gain. The very gaze of a mesmerist can hypnotize someone into following his whims. Mesmerists frequently form cults of personality around themselves, and they develop skills and contingency plans in case their ploys are discovered.
- Oracle (New Astrologian archetype): Although the gods work through many agents, perhaps none is more mysterious than the oracle. These divine vessels are granted power without their choice, selected by providence to wield powers that even they do not fully understand. Unlike a cleric, who draws her magic through devotion to a deity, oracles garner strength and power from many sources, namely those patron deities who support their ideals. Instead of worshiping a single source, oracles tend to venerate all of the gods that share their beliefs. While some see the powers of the oracle as a gift, others view them as a curse, changing the life of the chosen in unforeseen ways.

- Swordsman (New Sword Saint archetype): A warrior of the sword. A swordsman focuses on unleashing the true potential in his swordplays and using his warrior spirit to fuel his skills and perfecting the style. Instead of learning to lead others, he instead focuses purely on his skill with swords. Created by Kayos from Discord.
- Vermilion Duelist (New Red Mage archetype): A weapon in hand, their magic guided by their magic crystal medium; these red mages adept themselves to fighting in the fray with strength to contend even with knights, though their magic is weakened, causing them to rely on their crystal medium to unleash their magic.
- Vivisectionist (New Medic archetype): A vivisectionist studies bodies to better understand their function. A vivisectionist’s goals are not related to healing, but rather to experimentation and knowledge that most people would consider evil.

- Frozen status updated: Ice forms upon the character’s legs, encasing him in solid ice 1 inch thick per spell level. Characters that are inflicted with this status effect are frozen to the spot, unable to take a move action. While frozen, the character takes 1 point of ice damage per spell level each round it has the frozen status. The ice has hardness 0 and 3 hit points per inch of thickness; if broken, the creature is freed. They can, however, break loose by spending 1 round and making a DC 10 + spell level Strength check or a DC 15 + spell level Escape Artist check. Any fire spells and effects that deal fire damage can melt the ice and remove the status effect.
- Mini status updated: This status effect causes the creature to shrink to 10% of its total size, effectively becoming Fine size, gaining all the size bonuses and penalties but a miniaturize creature’s damage only does 10% of its total damage it can dish out.
