Classes: The Fighter

A first-level Fighter should be a force to be reckoned with. This isn't just someone who picked up a sword. They have either seen battle, or have extensive training. Or maybe both. They should almost always win a fight against an untrained opponent.

Fighter

• Backgrounds:
• Sellsword, Bandit, Man-at-arms, Hedge Knight, Yeoman, Squire, Knight, Noble
• Abilities:
• Use any weapon
• Ignore first failed Fortitude check
• +2 to Attack and Defence
• Advancement by:
• Surviving Battles, training
• Further Advancement:
• +1 to Attack and Defence
• Every second level, fight an additional opponent without penalty

I haven't quite figured out the advancement rate for these things, but I definitely want to tie the advancement of each class to their key talents.

Next up: the Magician.
