Aethermancer Starter Monsters - Get ready to make your choice on September 23

[h2]Aethermancer releases into Steam Early Access on September 23rd![/h2][h3]To get you ready to make your choice for your first companion, we are introducing our four starter monsters! [/h3][p][/p][p][/p][h3]#4: Minokawa[/h3][p][/p][p]With swift wings of steel and an electrifying temper, Minokawa wields Fire and Wind Aether. Its Sidekick-Type allows Minokawa to remain attacking multiple times each turn, pressuring down enemies through sheer speed. Its Force-Type converts those strikes into critical hits, enabling Minokawa, or other allies, to strike with excellent precision. Finally, its Dodge-Type offers defensive capabilities, protecting any ally from harm by quickly dodging subsequent incoming hits, reading their patterns. [/p][p][/p][p]The Signature Trait “Shining Spark” taps into Minokawa’s carry potential, shielding it and increasing the might of each Attack the more buffs Minokawa holds, making it an agile time bomb on turbine infused wings![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]No matter which monster you pick, you don't follow a linear level up path or skill tree - the semi-random skill pool reacts to your choices and team synergies, which lets you build a unique Minokawa every time you play![/p][p][/p][h3]These are our four starters - ready to make your pick? [/h3]

[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][h3]#3: Nixe[/h3][p][/p][p]With elegant and fluid movement, Nixe gracefully wields Earth and Water Aether. Through tapping into the Poison-, Heal- and Aether-Type, Nixe focusses on team-oriented goals. Whether it’s through directly poisoning enemies, healing injured allies or granting plenty of Aether for the whole team to use, Nixe provides the tools necessary. [/p][p][/p][p]Thanks to its Signature Trait “Toxic Tides”, Nixe’s able to directly convert healing into powerful Poison, slowly whittling down all that dare standing against now reinvigorated allies![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]No matter which monster you pick, you don't follow a linear level up path or skill tree - the semi-random skill pool reacts to your choices and team synergies, which lets you build a unique Nixe every time you play![/p][p][/p][h3]Next up and last but not least: Minokawa![/h3]
