Barbara scoffs as her attack is once more evaded by the bird, despite its nose-first dive towards the shorter pink-haired girl. While this might mean that the girl wasn't harmed by the attack made against it, it also annoyed her that her shots seemed to be for nothing almost every time, and she decides that the bird is no longer worth her attention, except where she can get a shot off on the flying nuisance in order to dissuade it from continuing its own assault. A clock also appears in the corner of her vision, showing her that her Two-Shot Special is on cooldown now, meaning she's not going to be able to use it until the countdown is over. This was really getting annoying for her, but there's not much she can do about it; if they keep splitting their attention among every target, they're going to end up losing in a battle of attrition.
She can see through her glyphsight that there isn't going to be much that she can do to get through the pillbug's barrier, but it's still pointless to conserve her ammo when she can see in her menu that her arquebus actually has an infinite supply of ammunition. What she wouldn't have given for unlimited ammo back in the real world; perhaps it was because of the arquebus's magic that she could continue firing no matter what. Regardless, she decides she might as well shoot twice at the barrier, using a Shredder rune shot followed by a normal shot once more. She's not sure if it will be effective against the barrier, but a girl can hope. That's when one of the other men, the one that had been calling shots earlier, pointed out that they were getting nowhere by splitting the focus of their attacks to the other targets instead of attacking a singular target, and the purple-haired soldier quickly agrees.
"Then we attack the big guy!"
Even as she says this, she looks up to keep track of the bird; she knows that the giant raven can still attack from above, and at range, and her own silver bullets are likely the only things that are going to keep it from interrupting their own attacks; her hands are automatically moving to reload her arquebus as she follows the black shape against the blue of the sky, her glyphsight tracking its movements across the blue expanse.

Upgrades at [VIT] or [WIL] Rank A, only one upgrade may be chosen.
[break][break]
The [Runemark] still functions as a normal weapon and when loaded with a musket ball, of which the Praetor has an infinitely restocking amount of, it can be fired once per post at a target up to the Praetor's [MAGI] in meters away, dealing their [MAGI]-1 Rank in piercing damage, moving at a [SPD] equal to their [MAGI]. However its true power comes with the use of Runic Rounds. Each post, in addition to the normal class attack, the Praetor can also fire one Runic Round and apply its effects.
[break][break]
The Praetor starts with 3 Runic Rounds and at each level multiple of 10, or potentially upon completion of a high rank mission, they are able to either choose a new Runic Round or swap one of their current ones out. They can have a maximum of 6 different Runic Rounds available to them. When choosing a new Runic Round or swapping one out, the replacement must be chosen from one of six categories: Offensive, Defensive, Utility, Buff, Debuff, Heal.
Name: Shredder Rune[break]
Type: Utility[break]
Effect: When this Rune is fired at an opponent, they are marked with a Rune giving them the [Shredded] debuff for one round that causes the next class attack made by the Praetor to increase in damage by 1 rank when they are fired at the [Shredded] target which then consumes the debuff.
PASSIVE: Spellsight
Your eyes act as a runic conduit for your abilities. With your enhanced sight you are capable of innately understanding what the primary stat of an attack or ability is and what its effects or damage will be. All stealth abilities are considered one rank weaker when used against you.[break][break]Upgrades at [VIT] or [WIL] Rank A, only one upgrade may be chosen.

The Glyphsight Praetor's powers are manifested through the use of the [Runemark] a heavy, bespelled Arquebus specifically designed to fire large bore silver balls that easily absorb magical energy and are receptive to being marked with Runes which are the primary ability of the Praetor.[break][break]
