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]#2: Cherufe[/h3][p][/p][p]Cherufe is a fierce lava lizard which wields Earth and Fire Aether. With the Types Critical, Purge and Burn at their feet, Cherufe heavily focusses on pressing the attack, rather than safeguarding allies. While its Critial-Type focusses on making Cherufe the carry of the team, Purge or Burn focus more on a team-oriented goal, either purging the enemies whole Aether pool or stacking Burn on all enemies, “burning” them down to a crisp! [/p][p][/p][p]Cherufe’s Signature Trait “Scorched Earth” especially boosts its use of Burn by breaking Poise on each enemy Cherufe applies Burn to, enabling swift staggers against all who defy Cherufe![/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 Cherufe every time you play![/p][p][/p][h3]Next up: Nixe![/h3]

[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][h3]#1: Jotunn[/h3][p][/p][p]With a sturdy body and ice shards on its back, Jotunn wields Water and Wind Aether. Through harnessing the Tank- and Shield-Types, Jotunn has all the tools at its disposal to protect their allies from enemy attacks, enabling different defensive playstyles. As an ancient being, Jotunn also possesses the Age-Type, which steadily increases its power each passing round, wielding unique offensive and defensive effects alongside. [/p][p][/p][p]Using the icy shards on Jotunn’s back, its Signature Trait “Rime Wind” allows it to reflect all incoming damage to any of its shields, enabling powerful retaliates, making Jotunn the defensive heavy hitter any aggressor fears![/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 Jotunn every time you play![/p][p][/p][h3]Next up: Cherufe![/h3]
