Ki Mage (Ninja/Sorcerer)

While most ninja’s focus primarily on perfecting their skills of stealth and subterfuge, some seek to harness their ki energy for the soul purpose of casting spells and enhancing their attacks. Ki mages are practitioners of ki magic who can trace their bloodline back to a powerful ancestor. By honing body and mind, they are able to tap into their reservoir of power to cast spells and accomplish amazing feats. (Original Concept by Byrdology and +5 Toaster)
