SPOILER: Click to show

A quick rundown of different details would perhaps be all that it would take to really give an idea of what Talius appears like. Amber eyes and snow white hair set this avatar apart from others, his appearance looking less like one would assume of the weapon specialist class known as "Gladiator" and more into the line of what one would expect of a Monk. The man is a 5'4", a rather short man but with a body that is rather well-built. His musculature is easy to see, even though it is far leaner than other combatants of his type. He isn't the type to hide those kinds of things.

He tends to let his long white hair flow down to around halfway down his back and has a preference for medium armors with a more ceremonious or fancy look. The man's face is very sharp in term of features and there's a certain handsomeness to his appearance that makes it clear to others that he appears almost inhuman, one of the downsides to letting a person who really struggles to understand the importance of some flaws design the appearance of an avatar.

- Personality -

Talius is a true display of the everyday personality of the odd, but friendly, individual that was Andrew Tonne. Andrew was never the type to try and be someone new online, and that comes through in the way he presents himself. There's no falsehood behind the eyes of the gladiator's avatar. He doesn't rely on tricks or sneaky plays, but instead focuses on a straightforward means of attack in order to accomplish his goals. The idea of beating around the bush was never quite his forte and it comes through very easily when interacting with him. On the negative side there though, he's a bit quirky. The oddball has a lot of little details about him that set him apart from the norm.

While he's incredibly extroverted he seems to struggle with the idea of commitment to a group of friends. He also has several nervous ticks that are easy to read during moments of high stress such as grinding his teeth and tapping his right foot on the ground, which he tries to hide by crossing his legs and setting his left foot on top of his right - but this just succeeds at almost making him appear as if he's bouncing instead of sitting with a bouncing leg.

- Biography -
Andrew Tonne is an 18 year old boy who was just a few months out of high school when he found himself interested in the game known as Gaia Reborn, or at least it's official release. The young boy was born and raised in a suburb south of London, his family typically were heavily involved in little things around their community he developed a love from a young age for community service and a work ethic that had him constantly compared to a work horse. Needless to say this carried him through his education as he finally found himself burning through assignments like he was the embodiment of fire itself.

Upon graduating, he found a small job in a convenience store down the road from his family. His mother and father allowed him to stay with them for the time being and as he waited on the release the boy learned a lot of new things about technology and the job that he was apart of. That being said, his life otherwise really didn't have anything of note. It was a quiet life with no real trouble before now and perhaps that was part of what played into his naivete.

Perfectus Forma

Gladiators strive for perfection, and power up while they perform flawlessly. After every successful skill that inflicts damage, they gain a stack of Forma, which grants a minor Attack Up, and stacks up to a maximum of 7 stacks. The moment they miss a Skill or are interrupted in their animation or cast time, all stacks of Forma are removed. Forma stacks are reset to 0 after combat ends. Basic attacks benefit from Forma, but missing them does not reset the stacks.

Passive skill.

Ars Ingens

The Gladiator’s fluid, powerful motions power up further skills with residue energy from the previous skills.

Using an Unus skill grants the Gladiator Unus: Paratus, which charges them with the Unus skill’s effect.

Using a Duo skill while having Unus: Paratus grants the Gladiator Duo: Paratus, which charges them with the Duo skill’s effect.

Using a Tres skill consumes Unus: Paratus and Duo: Paratus to power them up.

Using an Unus or Duo skill while already having a buff overrides it.

Nihil skills won’t interrupt or interfere with any Paratus buffs, and are standalone skills.

Passive skill.

Utilits Damnum
The Gladiator is a warrior of persistence and overcoming overwhelming obstacles, be it a monstrous beast or masses of fellow fighters. As such they are masters of pushing past their limits, at a cost to themselves. When a Gladiator completely drains their mana pool, they can continue to fight with great power, using their HP in place of mana to fulfill the mana cost requirement of Gladiator skills.

Unus: Phlegethon

The Gladiator performs a slow, powerful overhead attack towards a nearby enemy. They fuel their weapon with their life, coating it in a gray aura, and as they slash downwards this aura crashes down with it like a waterfall. The weapon initially deals average damage, and where it struck it creates a 1m radius where this gray aura crashes down over the next 2s. Every second, enemies inside take further below-average damage, and the Gladiator is healed for 15% of the damage this aura deals. This healing increases to 33% if the Gladiator is below 33% maximum health.

Paratus: Your next Tres will heal for 50% damage inflicted.

2.5s animation time, 45s cooldown. Average mana cost, 5% current health cost.

Duo: Orcus

Rushing 3m forward with their weapon out, the Gladiator phases through a single enemy. As they pass through, a flurry of slashes strike the enemy’s joint, dealing average damage and inflicting a strong 10s Paralyze.

Paratus: Your next Tres is treated as if having a strong Attack Up.

2s animation time, 1 min cooldown. Above-average mana cost.

Tres: Cerberus

The Gladiator sacrifices Health to coat their weapon in a red aura resembling Cerberus’ eyes as they deliver a powerful forward stab, sounding a bestial roar upon impact with an enemy. This fast melee attack inflicts strong damage and penetrates half of the enemy’s Defense. As it’s the lowest cooldown Tres skill, it is thus most commonly used to trigger one’s Paratus effects.

1s animation time, 40s cooldown. Average mana cost, 3% current health cost.

Heart of Heroes

The Alvs are known for their fierce courage and bravery, their wills allowing them to keep fighting in the face of despair. Once every 30 minutes, an Alv may instantly recover from 1 CC of choice that impairs their actions; such as Bind, Fear, Paralysis, Stun, and so on.

Eye For Quality

Artisans are skilled in many forms of art, and have quite an eye for discerning quality materials. When they roll on any table in a gathering thread, they are granted a +2 bonus to their roll. This bonus can’t cause the roll to exceed 85. This bonus increases to +4 once the Artisan hits level 21, and +6 once they hit level 51.

Passive skill.

Sagacious Aptitude

The Sage has a vast knowledge regarding the inner workings of magic and the elements, and are able to see and sense their presence. While toggled on, the Sage can see the elemental affinity of objects within 20 meters. A faint aura the color of their element will glow around everything that has an elemental affinity. Objects with an affinity of Fire will glow red, blue for Ice, green for Nature and yellow for Air. The Sage can thus see the elements of an object, equipment, monsters, et cetera.
