Atlas Reactor will be getting a visit from Rift's Asha Catari when she arrives as the game's next Freelancer. While her Atlas Reactor character will look a bit different, there is no question that this sword-wielding Freelancer is Rift's Defiant heroine. By all reports, her AR fighting-style will be very similar to how she battles in Rift.
Asha continued to distinguish herself, leading the Defiants to many great victories against both the agents of The Blood Storm and their enemies in the Guardians. Now that the two factions have found common ground once more, her leadership has grown to lead the combined Telaran forces against planar threats.
As the Rift site says, "If only we could get PuP into our game."
