A Bladesman has learned a
disciplined fighting style with a particular weapon. Skilled warriors,
Bladesmen are usually able to find steady work with their blade if they need
employment, and if they are more of a gentleman adventurer bent they can
confidently put themselves in the way of danger and have faith that their
competence will see them through it. They are a great addition to any
adventuring group or undertaking. |
A player should chose what weapon(s) they are skilled in and work their
character's mastery of their weapon(s) into their back-story. It is also
frequently appropriate for a Bladesman that is sufficiently good to take a
Reputation regarding their skill (potentially both the Perk and the
Disadvantage) to represent their fame or any associated downsides such as
young toughs looking to make a name by taking out such a famous master.. |

Rivalry with

As the name would indicate Light Foot typically fight on foot. They generally wear
lighter armor and wield lighter weapons.
|
Light Foot concentrate on speed, manueverability, skill, and technique over brute
force and strength. Reflexes and adroitness are their bread and butter, and they
often make use of easily carried thrown weapons which they can hurl at an opponent.
|
Adept skirmishers, Light Foot are much more dangerous than their lightly armored
fast moving nature would suggest, and what they lack in striking power they make
up for with accuracy and finesse.

Medium Foot typically fight, as the name would indicate, on foot. They generally
wear chain or other medium armors and wield heavier one-handed weapons in conjunction
with a shield. Medium Foot concentrate on a powerful mix of manueverability, quickness,
skill, technique and brute force.
|
Medium Foot provide a potent middle ground between the various extremes of fighting,
and might possibly be the best all-around type of generalist fighter.
