Votary
Core melee blade with paired strikes

Role
The Votary is the standard early melee fighter, sung in at the Threshold. It hits with two paired edges and is tough for its cost. A later upgrade makes it quick enough to close without being caught.
Look
A doubled-pointed spindle with two long flat glass blades hanging below it in a V and never touching it. A small faceted head crystal floats above the body.
