- "For hundreds of years, the personal safety of the Phoenix King has been the responsibility of the White Lions. This duty is an honor that these brave woodsmen have never shied away from. They are known across Ulthuan for their acts of near-reckless courage and unyielding dedication to their kin and King. The prestige of being counted amongst the ranks of these warriors comes at a very high price, for the honor is only granted to those that are able to stalk, kill, and skin the most cunning and lethal creature to dwell within the ancient forests of Chrace. The White Lions of Chrace, from which the hunters derive their name, are ferocious creatures that can grow to the size of an Imperial Warhorse, and tear a seasoned warrior to shreds within the span of a few seconds."
Overview
Given their slight build and inhuman grace, it easy to understand why a casual observer might think an Elf would be less capable in the arts of war compared to stout Dwarfs or robust Humans. The woodsmen of Chrace completely dispel such misconceptions. If their physical presence does not suffice, the monstrous predatory cats these Elves travel with tend to reinforce the point. The traditional weapons employed by the White Lions of Chrace are massive two-handed axes. While they seem far too slender and elegant to be weapons of war, the pragmatic White Lions wield these axes with devastating effect. None of the speed or agility their race is known for is lost, despite the size of their chosen weapon. Many such axes are family heirlooms, passed down from father to son, and are so keen that a skilled wielder has been known to cleave hulking Beastmen and fully armored knights cleanly in half.

Strategies
How To Play
Standing aside his majestic feline companion, the White Lion is a sight to be feared. Wielding a mighty Great Axe, he and his pet are one of the most destructive teams that can be found. White Lions learn three different basic fighting stances, each stance offering different benefits to himself and his pet.
Start a fight by using Axe Toss to attract the attention of the monster. Send in your lion while the monster charges. When the monster arrives, start by using Coordinated Strike, an attack that both you and your lion utilize at the same time. Follow up with Pack Assault and Hack. If you can get behind the target, substitute Sundering Chop for Hack. Repeat this basic cycle. If an enemy is a player, use Charge! to speed across the battlefield and attack. If you need to bring the enemy to you, tell your lion to Fetch. Outside of combat, engage Trained to Kill to give yourself and your pet bonuses.
How To Defeat
Engaging a White Lion in close combat is always a dangerous situation. Not only is the master a hardy warrior but you have to worry about his savage little friend as well! The safest way to deal with the pair is to destroy the master from range, for the War Lion on its own, while formidable, reverts to its more feral nature losing the advantages of its master's training.
If you are tasked with the unenviable job of engaging the White Lion in close combat you must pay careful attention to the duo's tactics. By watching the positioning of master and beast you can determine who is the larger threat and finish them off first!
