Oh, this is rich. Huxley's never been much of a fighter, and the only way for Huxley to get any kind of attack magic at all is to lay down his Archbishop's robes and take the field as a <I>ninja</I>. But even a geriatric ninja is perfectly matched against the lance-wielding king of Basil. How? Let’s go down the list. Albert is incredibly weak against magic, and doubly so when the magic is earth-elemental; well, one of the first spells any Monk learns is Rock Storm. Albert needs to hit with physical attacks to gain access to his Dragoon powers? It just so happens that Huxley has Perfect Guard, which allows him to block those physical attacks unerringly and counter with his own claw strikes. True, Albert’s strong enough to finish an old man pretty quickly if he can get a hit in – but Huxley’s got all the tools <I>he</I> needs to make sure that never happens.
