    Hi all, for this month I wanted to do something special for summons: Virtue enhancing. Basically, this new summon (as well as an old one) will gain benefits based on what your virtue is. Lemme know what you think of this concept!

    Skill Name: Summon Solar Guardian
    Skill Tree: Sun
    Requirements: Summon Phoenix level 40, Elysian Illumination 40
    Description: Long ago, ancient priests practiced rites that could call upon these feather winged creatures to aid them. These marble skinned creatures proved to be fearsome combatants, especially to those utterly consumed by Chaos. Those who had kept the virtues (knowingly or otherwise) found that they could coax even more power out from these Guardians, empowering the blessings they could bestow. Now such rites have been forgotten by all except the most devout Atenism scholars... However, they might be willing to share their knowledge to devout students....for a price that is.
    Mechanical Description: Summons a Solar Guardian to fight at your side. This pet inflicts Physical/Sun damage, as well as bonus damage to Undead, Obsidian Creatures, and Daemons. In PvP, the pet inflicts increased damage against Avatars with the Chaos and Death Specializations. However, while it is resistant to Sun and Fire damage, this pet takes increased damage from Chaos and Death damage. Additionally, the Solar Guardian gains a boost to its overall effectiveness if its summoner has a high virtue level, but will suffer penalties to its effectiveness if its summoner has negative virtues.
    Additionally, when set to passive stance and is not in combat for 5 seconds, the Solar Guardian will gain an aura that buffs nearby allies Damage Resistance slightly. While this is active, the Solar Guardian will take double damage from all incoming sources. This aura is affected by the summoner's virtue level. If the summoner's virtue is negative, the aura inflicts a penalty to Damage Resistance instead.


    Daemon

    Mechanics change: Is hostile to everything, including its summoner when summoned. Additionally, this pet deals increased damage against humanoid (kobold, elf, human, half elf) and "innocent" targets, and boasts a high Magic Resistance to most magic damage, and in PvP it gains a small boost in damage against Avatars without the Chaos or Death Specializations. However, it is especially vulnerable to Sun damage. This pet gains a boost to its overall effectiveness if its summoner has negative virtue, or a penalty if the summoner has positive virtues. The Daemon's Chaos ability also gains a boost or a penalty based on that virtue level.
