Blazing Lord Class

"Despite the strange, menacing aura surrounding her, the new traveling visitor explains she means no harm and swears her loyalty to you, her only wish is the conquest of these cursed lands. While her words seem sincere, you can clearly sense she’s hiding something – she seems to be the type to cause havoc."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ADDITIONAL INFO

– Blazing Lord is not considered religious
– She benefits from Outsider’s Bonfire
– Her canon name is Karen
– Mod includes only a single event to get a quick recruit of a class
– Barks in blue are spoken by the Fox Spirit. In barks where both characters talk, additionally, Blazing Lord’s lines are in orange.
– Class has a unique virtue/affliction, with odds being 25% and 75% respectively, and those odds cannot be manipulated by buffs from trinkets, skills etc. Be careful, as her affliction does not let you manually transform back to human form after going into beast mode.
