Amazon Apocalypse 5: Carter's Final Stats

As I've mentioned before, based on audiobook reader feedback, I've stopped including these in text. But they will continue to be posted at the back of the book.

Carter's Final Stats

Class: Prophet of Forbidden Knowledge (Legendary, Level 365)

Race: Homo Fatum Deus (Mythic, Level 365)

Job: Kindling Architect (Divine, Level 355)

Bloodline: Fateforged Hero (Divine)

This bloodline designates the bearer as a shaper of destiny. World -shaping events are much more likely to occur in their presence. This bloodline draws the barer to important people or locations, provides an in-built dangersense, and makes the bearer extremely difficult to kill. Any who inherit this bloodline are destined to become a hero of legends, assuming they live long enough to make use of it. This bloodline scales with Charisma and Luck stats, which are hidden from ordinary users of the System.

-Signature Skills-

Incarnation of the Apocalypse Dragon:

Thus far, this ability has allowed Carter to grow dragon wings, fly, breathe fire, exhibit greatly enhanced physical strength and senses, induce draconic terror in his enemies, and wreak large-scale destruction.

This Signature Skill was created using the abilities Dragonscaled Mage, Dragoneyed Mage, Dragonblooded Mage, Dragonsouled Mage, Commanding Aura, Awakening the Inner Beast, Firescourge Breath, Starlight Beam, Mana Siphon, and Etherial Wings.

Instrument of Fate:

Thus far, this ability has given Carter a less specific but more widespread passive manipulation of fate, making his attacks almost always strike their mark, and attacks against him almost always miss. It also has synergized with his life saving ability Living Paradox, and his bloodline, Homo Fatum Deus.

This Signature Skill was created using the abilities Fortune's Favor, Fate's Blessing, Slippery Foe, Hand of Fate, Time Stutter, Curse of Ill-Fortune, Conversion, Direct Order, Pacify, and Elemental Phalanx.

These enhanced Corrupting Marks create visible wounds on the target. Striking these wounds deals significant damage and enhances the associated Corrupting Mark to a Greater Corrupting Mark, which has the effect of five regular marks. Attacks to these wounds also count as critical hits. These marks can be detonated to deal a significant amount of damage all at once, at the cost of removing them from their target.
