Evangelist
“I am a kindred spirit to the stars, and the light of technology flows through me.”
Evangelists are followers of the Heavenly Kingdom fo Stars, sworn to preach of the light and prove the dominance of technology. Evangelists prefer to use energy based weapons as they are instruments of light; and they are proficient at using light to both blind and damage their enemies.
As an Evangelist, you should be focused on using lasers to damage your enemies, or blinding weapons to incapacitate them. You will have the ability to resist head trauma with the strength of you beliefs, and can help others around you with the same. Evangelists can play both leaders and damage dealers, depending on the focus of their light.
