Story and profile
Who they are
Eshmel is the protagonist: the Promised One, who also carries the title Herald of the Pale Raven. A Mediator from the Forbidden Land, Eshmel is woken by the goddess Sothis, then sent into the past to change the fates of the four lords and stop the demon god Balor. They admire ambitious and talented people, and like small unnamed flowers and board games. Eshmel is playable in the Prologue, before the obelisk chamber where you choose a route, and again in Part 3.
They begin as a Guardian and the guide ranks Eshmel S. Strength, Magic, Dexterity and Speed growths all sit at 45%, with Charm and HP at 50%. Defence and Resistance are 35%, so Eshmel is balanced but not tanky. Light of Salvation neutralises Underworld Boon on foes within 2 spaces. Diadem of the Auger grants Hit+100 on attack, at a 5% trigger. Blaze Arts are available to the main characters only. Authority and Spear are boon skills with no banes, and the class path is Guardian, then Sentinel.
