Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!

Introducing Chimyriad, at least formally. Do recall she's a Patreon cameo, but she fills an important slot in Archon's intelligence branch. It's more of a twig, really, since Archon itself is really small, so they need everyone they can get.

Arc-Dark is like Archon's Section 31. They don't go out of their way to deliver extra-judicial... well, justice, but it does happen sometimes. Mostly they're pure intelligence gathering, and they get a lot of mileage out of no one knowing they exist. Invisibility and shapeshifting are pretty useful in a fight, but they're way more useful for gathering evidence, especially if no one knows there might be invisible and/or shapeshifted people about.

It's like being an illusionist. Potentially incredibly useful, but as soon as someone knows their opponent is an illusionist, most of their arsenal evaporates. That's why every illusionist should still know a telekinesis spell, and also maybe fireball, so when their opponents go, "Don't worry, it's not really a dragon!" you can keep 'em guessing. I'd also get a lot of mileage out of "Summon Tiger Trap," and then cover it with ground textures that aren't conspicuously offset by a few pixels. If people think their next step could be their last, you can really slow them down.
