Knox's Proficiency Port: Warden

A port of the fantastic Warden Class by Eramar into a new Proficiency Class. (Eramar's Warden is not required for this mod.) This mod contains changes to Warden making them a CQC-Psionic Defender hybrid. Because Eramar's Warden was exclusively a two tree class, I decided to add a Psionic Defense tree to try to fit with the theme Eramar gave the class.

Specializing in Bullpups and Psionic gauntlets, Wardens fight in close quarters with their Gauntlets and provide Psionic defense to their Allies.

Rank 1:

• Gain Ebb and Flow - The user is able to change stances, that enable certain abilities, if they have an action point left. Defensive Stance is melee only, Offensive Stance is ranged.
  
• Gain Unwavering Concentration - Provides the user bonuses depending on what stance they are in.
  
• Gain 2 Mobility.

Rank 2:

• Gain Premonition - Allows the user to change stances without attack for a free action.
  
• Gain Implacable.
  
• Gain 2 Mobility.

Rank 3:
