Combat


Huw fights with fast twinblade combos. He can sprout a pair of golden wings, launch into the air and dive down in a spinning strike. He moves around the fight well and takes hits better than most melee spirits. His damage is lower than that of the strongest knights in this group.

"The Black Knights were the primary force of Messmer's army. Second to their first Knight-Commander was Huw, a man with agile command of both twinblade techniques and the powers of the Crucible, and whose spirit in these ashes dwells. Though a champion of the divine beast hunt, he followed his father, Andreas, into rebellion against Messmer, and like his father, he too was imprisoned in an underground tomb. Messmer mourned the loss of a brother-in-arms."
