Trivia[]
- The Keeper at Brightmoon Tor uses an unique portrait. The original portrait design of this Job is used by the luck-stick seller (and retriever) and the nu mou in the Clan Mates mission. Furthermore, the Keeper sprite may be seen in an auction.
- The sprite is reminiscent of a lost class, Transmuter, which was to combine items and use Grenades as a primary weapon. It was removed at the last moment due to how much testing time it would take to test its various abilities. At the time, it would have forced a delay on the game's release.
- Since the Keeper (Asha) is by default level 99 and possesses superior stats, he may be reconsidered a superboss for having a high Resilience as well as stalwart and mighty abilities.
