Masters of Destruction, the Blaster originally came about in Yolei society as quarry workers who leveled mounds with magic to see if there were enough valuable minerals there to be worth mining beneath. When the Darkbrood attacks increased, they realized that these destructive powers they would never direct toward each other were actually the best tool they had for fighting them off. Since joining the Alliance, the Yolei have shared the knowledge of their destructive magic with the rest.

The core function of Blasters is to provide explosive damage from afar after enemies have been grouped by the frontline. They have command of the elements and use them strategically to counter specific Darkbrood in battle. While they have no healing or supportive skills for their allies, they do have a number of debuffs that impair enemies on the battlefield. The Abilities from this Vocation are among the highest damage sources of K.A.O.S., but they require a little more thought toward which ones to use and when.

Compared to most positions in K.A.O.S., Blasters are the most reserved forces that are only deployed when necessary, due to how devastating their magic can be. Since the position tends to attract those with high intellect, many of them spend most of their time with other jobs, such as engineering. The Vocation is especially popular among public contractors, since they have more freedom in how active they can be, or even pick up side gigs to fill income gaps.
