Phlogistoneer

Article heavily inspired by the class Phlogistoneer from the Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III by NeocoreGames.

"Are you tired of having brains but no brawn. Annoyed at being the shortest bastard in the room, with a horrid size does matter complex naggin' at your brainstrings. Look no further than to become a Phlogistoneer.
With a powerfull exo-skeleton which protects the body, your enemies will be hard pressed to put as much as a dent in you, while your fellow companions will be thankfull to find a place behind your magnificent plates.
Your role as a Phlogistoneer will be to ensure that the infantery will live to fight another day, by utilizing what you've learned from the Royal Morkadian Academy of Science to craft a powerfull magitech suit that shakes the fields, while deflecting any harm away from you.
To your aid, you'll have a great inbuilt flamethrower which may turns the masses to crisp, should they choose to pick a fight with you. Though surely a few flames isn't enough on it's own. In case the fuel reserves ever run out, you'll also be fit with a massive Helwing Maelstrom hammer, which can't just smash through the enemies, but also launch electricity through their ranks.
Though most important will be your Helwing Molkovich Angel Mk.2 which core not only runs your pneumatic and steamdriven systems to allow the wielding of such great weapons, but also to activate the magitech core which protects you by a barrier, or allows you to form a great shield of raw pressure force to push anyone and anything aside with the exhaust of your flamethrower. In case of emergency, a small mortar can also be found on this pack, allowing either protective domes to be fired out to the allies, or lethal barrages on the enemy lines.
So if a shield and heavy plating isn't enough for you, Molkovia could always use more Phlogistoneers."
