Dervishes are fast, ritualistic spellcasters known for their fluid, dance-like combat styles and mastery of obscure knowledge. They move through the battlefield with the grace of a dancer, striking with precision and leaving their enemies reeling from unexpected angles.
Dervishes are often seen as mysterious and unpredictable, their combat style both mesmerizing and terrifying. Allies appreciate their ability to disrupt and disorient enemies, while foes often struggle to keep up with their rapid, unorthodox movements. However, their reliance on ritual and rhythm can make them seem erratic or even reckless.
