Softstar Description

The Gu-Wizard is the most unknown occupation that hides in the dark. They usually don't show up in public. People only know them from rumors and guessing. The rumors said the Gu-Wizards raise many poisonous Gus and herbs and use these materials to make various Gu poisons. The targets that receive the Gu usually won't die immediately but suffer from long standing pain and tortures. In the legends, there are even stories about the Gu-Wizards who raise Gus on people who are alive. The Gus that were grown this way have even greater poisoning effect.
