===Campaign Information===

====Playing a Barrier Mage====

'''Religion:''' Gods of protection are common for barrier mages.  They do like their defense.

'''Other Classes:''' You are a battlefield controller and thus command how the fight takes place.  Play smart, lest you harm your ally's tactics.

'''Combat:''' You control who and when the enemy arrives to die at the end of your fighter's blade.

'''Advancement:''' Barrier mages are, unsurprisingly, popular with castle towns and its inhabitants.  They often have guilds, if not actually working with nobility itself.
