Warrior

"With honor as my shield and courage as my sword, I face each battle with unwavering resolve. I will clear my family's name, or will die trying." - Belozog Mishkova, repentant exile

Your path to becoming the warrior you are today was one of absolute discipline. At a young age you were a gifted athlete, playing in children’s sports or getting into trouble pushing back against authority. As you grew, your restlessness matured into a desire to protect those weaker than you. Guided by great blademasters, you learned your way around sword and spear, shield and bow. As a versatile fighter, you are almost equally capable with any weapon and any suit of armor, making you an invaluable soldier. You also have a keen mind for battle tactics and act with disciplined measure as you direct your foes away from your weaker allies.

What motivates you when you don your armor? What thoughts stick with you as you draw your weapons and slog into the battlefield? How do your driving goals inform your fighting style? If you are motivated by vengeance, you might be an especially merciless fighter, whereas if you desire to protect your loved ones, you might stay your blade when you have the opportunity to do an enemy in, letting compassion guide your hand as much as justice. Maybe you have no scruples at all and will simply do what is asked of you as long as the coins keep coming.

An hour after combat, or 1 minute after you are the last one standing of your allies, you die.

Additional Subclass Tracks

Curseblade Track

Source: Harker's Guide to Vampire Hunting

Whether inherited or stumbled upon, the Curseblade is a keeper of darkness, perhaps themselves cursed to shepherd powers beyond them. Beholden to the will of a weapon with a strength all its own, these warriors draw upon and control sentient, cursed weapons, those that threaten to overwhelm them should they stray even an inch from their vigil. Most Curseblades are victims of happenstance, those drawn into their role by chance, while others belong to orders that bind hateful and vicious spirits to wood and metal in an effort to control their powers for the greater good, or for devilish whims of their own.

Talent	PreReq	Description	Tags
Cursed Blade	Warrior Entry	Choose either the arcane, occult, or primal tag. You infuse any single melee weapon of your choice with a supernatural spirit of this type, creating your Curseblade (that does not necessarily have to be a blade). This weapon counts as magical while you are alive and the spirit still inhabits it. For all curseblade talents, X is an attribute based on the tag that you selected: INT for arcane, AWR for primal, and CHA for occult. Additionally, your Curseblade gains one of the following base properties: Balanced: Your weapon no longer counts as unwieldy. Dualistic: For 2 AP, you may create a copy of your weapon for 1 minute so long as it possesses the light tag. This weapon gains the use of any Curseblade talents that apply to your original Curseblade. Featherweight: Your weapon gains the light tag if it did not already possess it. This cannot be added to weapons with the two-handed tag. Halfhand: You treat a weapon with the hand-and-a-half tag as if it is always being wielded in two hands.
