Game of Thrones: Dragonfire
Arulix
Enemy suppression and ally protection
Arulix targets enemy damage roles with suppression and control, then adds Physical output and ally protection through Habits. His usefulness changes with the opponent, and Mimicry should never be counted as an unconditional status provider.

Sources and uncertainty
Skills, rarity, breed, affinities and Habit unlocks use Wyrmwise's reviewed catalogue records, including Dragonfire Lab 0.23.5. They are reviewed community mechanics, not publisher confirmation of every effect. Tactical roles, placement and partner guidance are Wyrmwise inferences from those mechanics.
