“'''A Leonin warrior who inherited his predecessor's resolve, cleaving his won path with burning ferocity.'''From a determined cub to a warrior tempered by battle, this young Leonin's heart has always burned with a fierce flame. When he eventually took up Aulus's War Axe, it was not to live as his shadow, but to blaze a trail of his own.Having walked the hero's path and inherited a hero's resolve, the glory of "Aulus" shall burn brightly within them both.”

Lore & Story

Aulus longed to become a warrior, and for that, the other Leonins had taunted him and his battleaxe. To prove his powers, Aulus held back his rage, left his clan, and went on a journey to achieve great feats. But as a Leonin, all he ever faced was prejudice and injustice from the world. No longer able to bear it, Aulus headed toward the Lantis Mountains alone to hunt demons. Here, his strong rage awoke the slumbering battleaxe and henceforth they fought side by side to prove themselves, and the power of Leonins. TBA

Fighting Spirit

After dealing damage, Aulus adds a stack of Fighting Spirit to his axe per second for 4s (up to 4 stacks). Each stack grants 7.5 (+0.5*Hero Level)% Attack Speed. At max Fighting Spirit stacks, Aulus's Basic Attack is enhanced and gains Attack Range.
