First, have the Magic Knight Archetype use Knight's Proclamation to draw enemy fire. Roger will be casting a lot of Debuffs in his turn, use the Faker Archetype, which should have Dekunda inherited from the Healer Archetype on him, to remove debuff effects and cast your own in return.

For Damage your Assassin Archetype should focus on Roger since he is weak to Dark Skills. You can use Assassinate and Lurking Nightblade to do this. On the other hand, use the Pugilist Archetype to deal damage to his allies with Crushing Fist and Power Thrust.
