Empaths are highly attuned to other living creatures, allowing them to heal the wounds of others. Such powers have their drawbacks, however; since Empaths are so close to the pain of the living beings around them, if they so much as try to harm another living creature they will lose their ability to heal for a time. If they kill, such ability can be lost forever.
That doesn't mean, however, that Empaths are barred from combat. Many choose the path of the Battle Empath, with defensive skills and abilities often outstripping those of the hunters they seek out to heal.

Guild Abilities
Touch
By simply touching a patient, you form an empathic link with them that allows you to diagnose their injuries with some precision. Some abilities (healing, shift, link) require an empathic link to be formed in order to function.
Transfer/Take
Once you have established the link, you can transfer wounds from their body to your own for healing by specifying the patient and the wounded body part. TAKE and TRANSFER are identical. For example: TRANSFER ZOHA LEFT ARM is equivalent to TAKE ZOHA LEFT ARM.
Link
More experienced empaths can use their empathic links to others to access some of their knowledge, thereby increasing the empath's own skills for the duration of the link.
Percieve Health
Allows the empath to detect the presences of others in their area, and with sufficient skill, sense some of the health concerns that plague the realms.
Shift
Though considered a hush-hush skill by those in Elanthia, some empaths possess the ability to alter the appearance of others permanently.
Manipulate
Those with sufficient skill can Manipulate a creature approaching them into believing that the empath is a friend rather than an enemy, a powerful tool for empaths choosing to enter battlegrounds.
Life Magic
Empaths shape Life Mana into spell patterns for Healing, Protection, Body Purification, Mental Preparation and Life Force Manipulation spell books
