Profession Overview
Entertainer is one of the Basic Professions that branches off into a handful of unique elite professions. Those who wish to interact with a large portion of the playerbase and have a penchant for performing should consider starting as an Entertainer.

Base Skills Overview
The basic Entertainer profession compromises different skill sets, three leading to an elite profession, with one as support.

Image Design
An Image Design is a character-modification ability that provides avatar modifications (including hair, skin, eyes, etc). If a character chooses to advance to full-fledged Image Designer they will have a wealth of abilities open to them in avatar modification.

Image Designers can also perform "stat migrations" for other players. This allows the player to decide what his or her new HAM balance should be and the Image Designer will set it for them (after a period of time)

Entertainment
An entertainer generally does just that, helping wash away the fatigue of battle with song or dance. Entertainers, Dancers, and Musicians can heal wounds in the mind stats (Mind, Focus, Willpower) and battle fatigue (BF) for themselves and other players (if they watch or listen to the entertainer).

Dancing
Entertainers with Dancing skills learn fluid dancing abilities and are able to mesmorize their audience with their movements. Characters who advance to a full Dancer profession will find a whole world of dance and other visual delights.

Musicianship
Where Dancers captivate your eyes, the Musicians will be a treat for your ears. Entertainers with Musician skills will be able to construct and play basic instruments and learn new songs. Taking it a step further to Musician will enable the character to play large exciting instrument such as the Nargalon.

Entertainment Healing
This skill works with both Dancing and Music in that it enhances the Entertainer's ability to heal the Battle Fatigue and Mind Wounds of their audience. Advancing as far as possible in these skills is almost a requirement for those who wish to help as well as entertain.
