No place accepted the girls that ran away from the horrible experiment.

It reflected the cold-heartedness of the world but at the same time, it showed how dreadful the chase from the empire was. Most fugitives were killed by the pursuers from the empire or lost their lives from the uncontrolled metastasis energy. However, there were some people who succeeded in completely suppressing the metastasis energy and revolted against the empire.

These people, who succeeded in suppressing the metastasis energy with their innate talent and perseverance, mixed in with the adventurers and learned how to fight. The endless fights that pushed them to the brink of death was also and oppurtunity to turn their swordsmanship into a unique style.

The fighting style using a dual sword and the innate strength that awakens the potential power of the humans is their weapon and their way of survival.

But with the endless torment and wandering, they did not even have time to think about what they should call themselves. The word that someone randomly spit out while looking at their agonizing life became their name and ego. The one and only name they have is Vagabond which means beautiful as the flower and dreadful like thorns.

Awakening as a Dualist

Who dares speak of strength?

Even the most trained warrior may be killed by the needle of a woman

and mountains may fall with a cry of a child.

That is the way of the world.

Who dare speak of weakness?

A needle of a woman can kill even the most trained warrior

and cry of a child can make mountains fall.

That is the providence of the world.

So do not boast strength carelessly.

Because I know the heaviness of the sword, I do not expect others to know its elegance.

Just quietly swinging, as the sword guides me.

What the sword slashes is the flesh and the bones of the enemy,

but the sword cuts away my own pride and habit.

Slash and slash again.

My life, my dream, my happiness. To not lose my mind to the sword that has taken everything away from me.

I will slash and slash again.

To change my strength to weakness and weakness to strength, so that I can follow the journey that the sword guides me.

Awakening as a Blade Dancer

Who can comprehend the weight that this blade carries.

They only praise it's greatness for it’s beauty

Nobody understands the sacrifice it took to earn it.

I can hear their constant praises.

The endless cheers and well wishes.

Songs and tales that carries my name.

I tire of this endless meaningless charade.

I will no longer hide or run away from the truth.

I will not shy away from the dangers that I will face.

I will show them that I'm no mere tool for their fancy.

I will end it all. I shall no longer live to be ordered around like a dog.

My life is my own and my destiny is what I choose to be.

May those in resentment gain hope. I will now fight for you.

I shall become the symbol of the oppressed.

I will aim vigorously for the freedom and liberty of all.

It matters not, if the journey that I will take is long and a lonely one. As long as there is meaning to it.

This is the burden that I'm willing to carry. Let the name "Blade Dancer" have purpose, and be remembered for all eternity.

Trivia

General

• The Vagabond's theme and motif is heavily inspired by Wuxia, known as "Martial Heroes" which are fictional stories about regular humans who can achieve supernatural fighting ability through Chinese martial arts training and internal energy cultivation.
• Her playstyle in-game could be reminiscent to how Jedi & Sith fought using both Lightsabres and the Force from the Star Wars franchise.
• The Vagabond is the only subclass in the game that is able to wield more than one weapon in their inventory due to having a special slot above their primary weapon.
  • She and Blade Master are the only two Slayer subclasses that can wield Lightsabres.

Titles

• Despite what the lore says, Vagabond, in reality, means a person that wanders place to place without a home or a job.
• She happens to share the Dualist title with Skirmisher for his overseas subclass name with the same meaning, though oddly having the A and E letter swapped around.
• Blade Dancer may likely be a reference to Irelia's title from League of Legends.

Skills

• Most of her skills tend to have a flower-themed motif to them.
•  Blade Triangle - Charlotte's Trislash. (Samurai Shodown)
•  Fluttering Blades - Charlotte's Crystal Rose. (Samurai Shodown)
•  Cutting Palms - Shinka Ialdabaoth. (Super Robot Wars OG Gaiden)
•  Explosive Palm - Buddhist Palm Technique from Kung-Fu Hustle.

Misc

• GoodSmile Company has announced a Nendoroid of Neo: Vagabond.
