The Rose Knight
Pimenta
“If they want you, they'll have to go through me.”
Pimenta "The Rose Knight" is a Tank hero of the Gaia Project guild with 950 HP, 58 Defense and 1 Range, wielding the active ability "Pepper Spray".
Notes
A tank who locks down the space in front of her with a poison cloud. Pepper Spray deals damage plus Defense-scaling Poison to nearby enemies every second for 4 seconds; after Stall (15) she also heals per enemy inside the cloud. Her 58 base Defense is plenty sturdy on its own.
The Spicy converts debuffs into follow-up damage and explodes in comps spreading Poison, Frost and Burn. The Seasoned extends the cloud and can hand tanks and mages Defense from the backup slot. The Lover pairs her with Sal side by side. She is the core of Poison synergies.

Lore
Current work
She's the guardian who plants herself in front of her people to protect them. The poison spreads from her, buying everyone the time they need. She met Sal on the Gaia forum, trading notes, and after six months of bickering they noticed they were writing love letters. Their shared goal, once the crisis ends: a cottage with a rose garden.
Motivation
She and Sal want one thing answered: does your guild have a real chance of ending this? Gaia takes fewer contracts than the big names, and at this rate the cottage stays a long way off. Gaia is family, so they'll never fully leave. But move the clock forward, and they're with you.
