(This is calculated after increases for class have been added.

-When fighting creatures of Tier 1 you increase your avoidance by +20%.

-When fighting creatures of Tier 1 you increase your chance to hit with an attack by +20%.

-You will not receive EP for Tier 1 creatures except in special cases such as massive hordes, or specific events. They can still kill you. Won't that be embarassing.

You have taken the class: Contract Worker - Pet Shepherd

Talk at Animal, Heal Animal, and Herd Animal have been consolidated into Lord of BeastsÑøv€l-B1n was the first platform to present this chapter.

Tertiary WIS skill

You have learned the spell: Heal Beasts. This spell will allow you to heal wild beasts, animals under your control, pets, and other living creatures including many monsters. Humans, Elves, and other sentient creatures are excluded, they have lots of healers. The beasts have only you!

Pet Commands becomes Command Beasts. Beasts who are neutral to you will consider your requests. Beasts who view you favorable will most likely follow your commands immediately and trust you

Bond Animal becomes Symbiotic Bond. You are far past the idea of who is Master and who is the Pet. Your bond will only grow stronger and the world will shudder as you gain in power everyone is very happy for you! Teach others to be happy too!

When you are aware of an opponent, and focusing on them attacking you, you receive +50% to any defensive evasion skill as long as you are not attacking or casting spells. If attacking normally, you may focus upon 1 enemy, and you receive a +10% bonuse to defensive evasion skills.

Well Done! You have managed to raise your DEX and CON stats to 10 or higher. For accomplishing such a feat before Tier 2 you have been granted the Perk: Big Boned.

Your bones and claws are becoming harder, like the beasts you care for. +5 to damage done with natural weapons. +5 mitigation to physical attacks.

Well Done! You have managed to raise your AGI and CON stats to 10 or higher. For accomplishing such a feat before Tier 2 you have been granted the Perk: Tough side of Town.

You know how to dodge, and know how to take a hit. +200 Health

Well Done! You have managed to raise your AGI and DEX stats to 10 or higher. For accomplishing such a feat before gaining Tier 2 you have been granted the Perk: Balance

You are skilled at tumbling, walking a tightrope, riding a fast flying dragon, or keeping your balance while rolling a log in the middle of a river.

Falls have little effect upon you. Ignore the first 50' that you fall, and you always land on your feet.

Tri-fecta! Raising two stats to 10 is difficult, but raising three is simply amazing!

Add +50 to Health, Mana, and Stamina.

Quadratic! You just don't know when to quit climbing the mountain.

For raising 4 stats to 10 or higher recieve one of the following of your choice:

- A simple aspect of magic. {Aspect of Life chosen.}

- Minor resistance to an element.

- 100 Gold Coins

- +150 to either Health, Mana, or Stamina
