Magali: The dream world is subdivided in various lands , and it is meant to be protected and charted by the dreamers of the lands, those are called guardians. Guardians come and go, as they grow old, they stop lucid dreaming, and get replaced with younger guardians after a while, and the cycle repeats itself.

Magali:Each deamer has a title, titles dictate the way dreamers interact with the land, each other, and their powers within the dream world, therefore, titles are a reflection of an individual's psyche and personality.

Magali:A title is composed of a Class, and a Trait

Magali:The first half of a guardian's title is the class, it dictates how a dreamer interacts with their trait, to what extent they can interact with their trait, and how they can affect others with their traits

Magali: Classes usually resemble middle-age archetypes, such examples would be knight, king, jester, and so on

Magali: But from what Tori told me, there is no limit to how many classes there are , and it is most likely that each dreamer will have an unique class based on their personality

Magali: Furthermore, classes can be divided into two main types, Commander class and Servant Class

Magali: Commander classes are the classes suited for guardians in position of leadership and dominance

Magali: And Servant classes are classes suited for guardians in position of assistance and support

Magali: Commander classes and Servant classes should work together to better achieve their goals, because a Commander without support becomes weak and powerless, and a Supporter without a leader, becomes aimless and faithless

Magali: Now onto traits, which are the second half of a guardian's title

Magali: Traits are utilized in the way denominated by a guardian's class, they usually resemble the very essence of one's self

Magali: As an example, a Knight of Death, as a Support class, would be someone who most likely serves and protects someone trough death. A King of Soul would be someone that most likely hoards Souls for their own benefit, as well for those who they deem fit.

Magali: Just as classes, traits are completely unique to each Guardian, and it is very unlikely that two Guardians have exactly the same trait.

William: And what about me?

Magali: You are quite an exception William, as in, your class is one that resides outside of the social norms. You are a Bard, an archetype which is usually referred to someone who travels around the land, reciting epic poems and musics and such, to everyone who is willing to listen.

Magali: A bard is someone who entertains and tells stories with their trait

Magali: Bards can serve whoever they like, they are usually very charismatic and are most likely to have the most bonds with everyone

Magali: Bards are capable of both physical combat and magic, using their artistic talents to induce magical effects

Magali: And your trait, William, is sound, which makes for a perfect combination with your class
Magali: The Bard of Sound is a Guardian who, being neither commanded nor a commander, entertains and tells stories trough sound, using it to induce magical effects in enemies
Magali: You, are this Bard of Sound, William
Magali: At first, your title might seem vague, but as you progress trough the dream world, it will begin to make more and more sense to you, since, after all, it is merely a reflection of who you are
Magali: As you might have figured, bards work better with instruments, so you better get one soon, but voice alone shall do to exerce your title if you are determined (or desperate) enough

William: Wow, did you really learn all of this with Tori?

Magali: Yes, waiting for you in your room usually leaves us with plenty of free time to chat

William: So, what can you tell me about my abilities?

Magali: You like couplets?

William: Heck yeah I do!

Magali: So, your default abilities are Open and Closed Couplet

Magali: Open Couplet requires you to spend a round singing about half a line of a song, if someone else completes the rhyme, they can get a buff depending on what they say

William: Oh, so kinda like a magic wand but without the wand?

Magali: You can look at it that way, yes

William: And what about closed couplet?

Magali: It's basically the solo version of that attack, and takes less than a round, if you attack while opening a line, and finish the rhyme in time, your attack can recieve a power-up depending on what you rhyme

Magali: May I inform you that messing up a rhyme comes at the price of suffering a stun for a round

William: Well, that still sounds very fun, thanks Magali!

Magali: Always glad to help, willy

Tori: Alright, it looks like its second form is called Llysna, seems like it can't fly in this form, lowering its dexterity

Kyle: The weakness stays the same, fire

Tori: Its rage seems to make it dumber, but also stronger, but it's only got 120 HP, we got this!

Joel: Yeah! We're 6 against one, let's prank it with all we have :}
Joel: But if the need arises, protect the kids at all cost!
