The Ironclad is the game's starting character, a warrior focused on Strength, Block, and self-damage/healing. His starting relic, Burning Blood, provides passive healing. Key mechanics include gaining Strength (e.g., Spot Weakness, Limit Break), generating large amounts of Block (e.g., Barricade, Entrench), and utilizing Exhaust synergies (e.g., Feel No Pain, Dark Embrace). He excels at sustained combat and can recover from damage effectively.
