Ankari Artificier

Lore

The Ankari, also known as the people of the Twin Rivers, are the oldest known civilization still in existence.
Their capital city, Ank'Or, is situated between the fertile confluence of the Twin Rivers, Ank and Or. It is a sprawling metropolis of intricate architecture, towering statues, and ornate temples.
The Ankari Artificiers are masters of elemental manipulation and are revered in their society as direct descendants of the gods themselves.
Artificers do not have any innate magic abilities. Instead, they have learned to use the artifacts left by the Fallen Gods(Empty) to channel their various "spells".
All known artifacts have been touched by The Rot, and using them without any training can cause one to become a Bloomed.
With training, most people can learn to wield minor artifacts, but some choose to go beyond that.
To become an artificer, one must graft a powerful artifact called a Locus directly onto their chest. If they survive the procedure, the Locus must then be imbued with a primordial element.
A Locus can only hold one element, and each artificer can only survive the attachment of one Locus.

The Artificier is a ranged damage class that focuses on mastering a single primordial element.
Depending on the element, they can excel at single target, AOE damage, or crowd control.
