Macabre Dancer

"Macabre Dancers are experts at status and ability magic. Since they are allied with both the light and dark spirits, they are proficient in healing and attack magic. They hold large fans in both hands during battle. Their dancing form is said to enchant those who watch."

Macabre Dancer (妖扇士, Yōsen-shi) is a class in The World R:2. A strange class, they wield fan-like weapons. They cut their enemies with the bladed tips of their fans in a battle form that resembles a dance. The inhabitants of The World consider them the "Flowers of the Battlefield".

Usefulness
Macabre Dancers are the expert class for status effects and parameter changes, and are very balanced casters, learning both healing and attack spells. Like Harvest Clerics and Shadow Warlocks, Macabre Dancers gain spells incredibly quickly, at a rate of almost one per job level, but learn no arts.

List of Skills
In The World R:2, unlike in its predecessor, skills are inherent to a class, not to a weapon.

As a player raises his or her job level, he or she will gain access to new abilities. Some spells can be learned by all classes via special, expensive books, but a fair portion of the Macabre Dancer repertoire can only be learned by caster classes. In addition, since items are unusable in Arena battles, casters have an advantage.
