Description
Being true to their name, Fencers have dirty-purple armor, similiar to fencing-gear on the head and body. Fencers have a visible six pack. Their head back features a dirty-purple helmet with a single horn on the back, and a metal, grayish mask with 3 horizontal stripes (possibly for them to breathe), one being bigger, serving as a eye hole. Their arms and legs contains dark gray armor (arms and hands are darker) and they don't have any gloves. They have metal shoes featuring a sphere over them. In their portrait, they have a square-like shaped line on their mask's bottom, having more dynamic features, more circle-shaped pauldrons (shoulder armor) and a possible shadow or normally black part on their belly, which is possibly part of their armor under their purple clothes hidden by clarity.
They are equipped with the Fencer Foil's, a weapon that is, of course, a fencing sword suitable for combat.
Fencer, like Industrialists, have buzzsaw technology skills, using them to attack opponents and as power/magic.
