Doom Knight - Class Tree
Doom Knight (Not Playable in Starter Set)
Corrupted warriors who channel death, decay, and necrotic energy into devastating martial combat, Doom Knights serve dark powers with equal parts blade and curse, treating entropy itself as a weapon and every fallen enemy as fuel for their own continued existence, in service of forces mortals were not meant to understand, some out of genuine malice, others out of cold necessity.
