## Description

An Elemental Sorcerer is a magic-user that has honed their skill in one of the many subgroups of the Elemental Magic type. As such, there are subcategories of an elemental sorcerer, being Fire Sorcerer, Water Sorcerer, Lightning Sorcerer, Wind Sorcerer, and Earth Sorcerer. They all have high Magic Attack and Magic Defense, making them a force to be reckoned with when facing enemy magic-users. They have solid Agility that allows them to dodge most attacks directed at them, but they have low Attack and Defense that causes them to struggle a bit in combat against enemies with physical weapons.

## Skills

Elemental Detection: The Elemental Sorcerer can detect specific, nearby sources of their element; is harder to do when more of their element is around, i.e. a rainstorm, thunderstorm, or being on an ocean. TP Cost: 5

Mimic Element: The Elemental Sorcerer is able to become their respective element i.e. fire, electricity, air, etc., allowing for a multitude of uses. TP Cost: 5

Elemental Prowess: The Elemental Sorcerer is an expert in their field of magic, and as such will have a 20% reduction on MP costs for their respective spells.\* Passive

Summon Elemental: Summons an Elemental based on the Elemental Sorcerer's magic element, which can be assigned to hover above the user or an ally; the Elemental will support the target by periodically healing them, granting them defense against certain attacks, or using an elemental magic attack on enemies. The Elemental has 20 health and 10 Magic Attack, with no form of defenses. After five turns they will depart.\* TP Cost: 30

Elemental Burst: When a summoned elemental nears death or expiry, it will home in on an enemy and release a high-powered burst of elemental magic to damage the target.\* Passive

## Overview

Elemental Sorcerers are magical powerhouses that are great to have in a party in any campaign as they can typically hold their own and deliver great amounts of damage.

Mimic Element lets the Elemental Sorcerer become the element they wield, allowing them to hide from enemies or NPCs by becoming a boulder or part of a puddle or stream, and can be used for many other situations as well, but in battle will grant them invincibility for a single turn, which is great for when the Elemental Sorcerer needs to take a breather while allies heal them up.

The Elemental Construct skill will create a useful item out of the Elemental Sorcerer's element. This can be used to make a key out of stone, a crowbar out of wind, a necklace of ice, or a sword of flames, really anything you could imagine.

Summon Elemental is an excellent skill as it will summon another member to the party, essentially, for a short time. The Elemental can be assigned to an ally to support specifically by healing them, blocking enemy attacks, and attacking enemies with an elemental magic attack. The Elemental will only stick around for five turns before departing and the Elemental only has 20 health.

Elemental Burst is a great way to make the most out of a summoned Elemental; if the Elemental drops below 5 health, or on the fifth turn of being there, it will home in on an enemy and release a powerful magic attack on an enemy that deals a great amount of damage. Note that Elemental Burst is only useful if the Elemental Sorcerer already has the Summon Elemental skill.

The Absorb Element skill lets the Elemental Sorcerer absorb sources of their element around them, be it water from a stream, fire from a torch, or lightning from a storm cloud. Once it is absorbed, the source it came from will be gone, and will dry up the stream, extinguish the torchlight, and make the storm cloud release only rain, and not lightning.

## Trivia

* The Summon Elemental skill is inspired by the Summon Elemental Art wielded by the character Melia in Xenoblade Chronicles.
	+ Elemental Burst is also from Xenoblade Chronicles, being Melia's Talent Art, though it works much differently in that game than in Towers and Tarragons.
