Graveborn

Graveborn are Death-touched acolytes who sacrifice health to unleash devastating Dark Magic attacks and become the phantasmal Reaper of Bones, accompanied by their manic Demi-Lich companion.

Devotees of Death, Graveborn draw strength from the pain and passing of others, growing in power as they send the souls of their enemies screaming into the void. Where most fear Death, the Graveborn revel in it, and have even made it an ally. Aided by a powerful and ancient demi-lich bound to their service, the Graveborn knows that all power comes at a price paid in blood, whether it be that of their foes or their own...

Class Information

The Graveborn is a master of Kill Skills, Spells, and Dark Magic. They use their Demi-Lich Companion and sacrificial Action Skills to enact suffering upon their enemies, even at the cost of their own life force. Any Spell cast by the Graveborn will cause the Demi-Lich to cast a unique spell of their own, as well as triggering Kill Skills to summon hellish minions.

Any increases to the Fatemaker's Damage also apply to their Companions.
