They are also stalwart defenders of those within their charge. Most find it through their own sense for order, some find it through a patron god, and rarely others find power within the corruption.ĭe-fraggers are masters of combat, cutting down swarms of enemies in brilliant flashes of retribution. You need power to keep depredation at bay, and that power can come from many different places. Most de-fraggers work towards this goal, though their methods may differ wildly.
