Description
===========
Karen mod is a companion mod, based on Blackie's CM Partners. Karen has the ability to use a few of Xilver's Midas Magic spells, and has a set of spells that complement's the style I've designed her. She also has a set of equipment and weapons that (I feel) best optimizes her performance and abilities.


Details
=======
Karen is that first of my Midas Magic "Concept" Companions. I recently designed 9 companions that, generally, fit the theme of the Midas Magic mod by Xilver. However, I wanted to break away from the theme and create companions that would just seem interesting, without the "lore" pressure of Midas Magic.

~Karen Iphigenia~

Class: Priestess
Battle Style: Mage
Spells: Holy Burst, Prismatic Ray, Prismatic Missile, Absorption Stream, Force Ball, Rising Star*, Heaven's Feel".

LOCATION: Skingrad Church

I've designed Caren as a magic, support type companion. Her staff (Mycenae) has the ability to burden, silence, and disarm an opponnent for 10 seconds. Offensively, Karen doesn't do alot of damage, however she she is extremely talented with the ability to stop enemies in their tracks with her staff and spells, enabling you to fight a foe easier and easing the numbers of mobs. Though she has strong magical resistance, she has very low HP and defense. However, she I've also given her two special spells: Heaven's Feel and Rising Star.

Heaven's Feel: Increased mp, 3hp/sec regen, 45shield, and 50% magic resistance for on self for 300 secounds. (Effect can be seen when she glitters)

Rising Star: Causes 3shock/sec for 10 seconds on touch and launches the enemy in the air. (The launched foe glitters as well)

On a final note:
DO NOT think I simply dumped random midas spells in her arsenal and it just handing her out. Everyone one of the Midas Magic companions (whether an official or conceptual) is a custom made job and their looks, AS WELL AS battle styles, have gone through numerous trials by me and testers to be an actual use for the player character.
I also reccomend you use TheTalkingToaster's companion share recruit mod to party with her instead of the "default" CM partners. This allows her the option to heal and buff you and you're party when necessary (and she's saved my life on numerous occasions I must add...).
