Juliette

Faction: Vermilion Sky

Juliette combines mobility and shielding to be a versatile and dangerous fighter, as well as a solid defensive tank. Clever use of her abilities is critical: in particular, Crystal Mind for cooldown reduction.

For each square Juliette moves, she gains 1 shield at the beginning of next turn.

Dash Phase – CD 5

Three 3.5-range slides, but cannot leave 5-radius circle
