I. THE PURITY OF PURPOSE An Oathbound is defined by a single Primary Stat. This specialization is the source of all martial prowess, dictating the force of their Damage and the unerring Accuracy of their strikes.

To stray from one's calling is to invite failure. Perfection of the primary attribute ensures the Amulet’s power is never wasted on a missed blow.

II. THE CHRONICLE OF THE FIVE The path to the Dragon King is paved through 5 distinct zones of Aethelgard. The Oathbound exist in a constant state of transition:

• The Push: The relentless hunt for Gold and Experience to strengthen the current vessel.
• The Retreat: The necessary return to the Sanctuary. It is here that health is restored and upgrades are forged, though the progress of a current battle must be sacrificed to find this peace.

III. THE TRANSFORMATION OF AGONY For the Oathbound, pain is the only fuel. Fury increases only when the warrior suffers damage.

• Limit Break: When the fire within reaches its zenith (100%), the warrior unleashes the ultimate technique of their class.
• Mending: Should survival outweigh vengeance, this rage can be surrendered to mend the warrior's wounds.

IV. THE UNBROKEN LINK The Ember Amulet is the true master of the bloodline. It harvests the essence of every fallen guardian, passing their hard-won wisdom to the next heir. Through this conduit, the Max HP of the bloodline grows perpetually, fueled by the levels of those who came before.
