PC Portrait for Lark Portrait Model GIF of Lark Model

Lark

A consummate showman and performer, Lark loves the spotlight, but his desire for attention might end up getting him killed. Hunted by mysterious enemies with deadly intent, Lark has nevertheless managed to forge a degree of notoriety and a small fan following as a bard, all while evading his pursuers and any questions about who is hunting him and why. Lark left his old band of performers and initially joined up with the Fallbacks in order to surround himself with powerful protectors. He didn’t expect to catch feelings for the group in the process, but he’s adjusting. The show must go on, after all.

Basic Information

Lark will be a new champion in the Simril event on 3 December 2025.

Rapt Audience Icon Rapt Audience (Level: 110)

When Lark attacks an enemy and does not defeat it, the enemy gains the Charmed debuff. Charmed enemies take 400% additional damage for each Charmed debuff that Lark has applied in the current area, stacking multiplicatively and capping at 10 stacks. If Lark attacks an enemy he has already Charmed, it still increments his Charmed count for the area. Once Lark applies his maximum number of Charmed stacks in an area, he switches over to use his crossbow, named Last Resort.
