Battle[]

Gaius is an Magitek Overlord who strikes swiftly and powerfully with his incredible magitek and machina weaponry, Gaius's arsenal can be charged at anytime increasing the lethality of his attacks. This charge is represented by a meter that fills with a blue bar when charged. When this meter is charged higher Gaius moves and attacks faster and his ATK points rise, however Gaius's Ceruleum meter is always decreasing at a slow and steady pace. When Gaius is charged his body and sword become engulfed by blue fire, the higher the meter the more fire.
