The Guardian - Frontline Spellcaster and Support [LeaderLib Version]

Introducing the Guardian! Guardians are frontlines specializing in Warfare, and use their Strength to cast spells.

For those without the Script Extender or who cannot use it at all, the previous version of this mod will remain posted but unlisted: Guardian - Frontline Support and Spellcasting (No LL or SE) Under no circumstances should you use this mod in combination with the non-extender version listed above.

Virtues While there are only three Virtue skills, they are the key to using almost half the Guardian's skills (though in limited quantities at a time).
