Kailan Ward

Kailan Ward, Summerborn Rhyphorian Mystic
Played by Nic during the premier season of Non-Standard Action. Kailan is the party's voice of reason.

Backstory
Some would say that Kailan Ward was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. As a board member of Pinnacle Securities Inc. and personal friend of the CEO, her father could afford it. While her prestigious, private school focused on the arcane arts, her true joy was racing. She even managed to gain a small measure of fame in the collegiate racing circuit. As expected, Pinnacle offered her a job after graduation. She became part of a small, corporate espionage team where she could put her abilities to use. Their most recent mission turned out to be a trap, trap, laid by one of her father's enemies, the new CEO of Pinnacle. By the time the team realized that they weren't meant to return, it was almost too late. Only Kailan and Hirrald managed to escape. Now, they need to make it back to Dawnshore and find out who set them up.

Design Background
Nic and Simon wanted their characters to share some backstory. They originally entertained the idea of both playing Astrazoans, but ultimately, the Astazoan wasn't a good fit for a mystic. Rhyphorians make such heckin' good mystics though.

At the end of the day, Nic enjoys playing all the classes, and making Kailan both a mystic and a corporate operative was a fun challenge.

This build splits the difference between support and damage, with a focus on being able to move quickly in and out of combat. At low levels, the focus is on staying out of reach, but after level five, she'll be able to pop in, deliver a touch spell, and pop out again. There will probably be some battlefield control in there at some point as well, but we'll see.
