The Way of the Fighter

As one approaches Jhelom, the island home of Britannia's fighters, the clang of steel and the cry of men-at-arms perfecting their trade becomes unmistakable. These fighting men, the finest in Britannia, can be found throughout the land, in the employ of some noble lord, or perhaps engaged in an adventure on their own right. Through their unmatched Courage, these warriors further themselves in the virtue of Valor.

The fighters of Britannia are masters in the art of armed combat, and can competently wield any of the arms forged throughout the land; although, the double-edged sword, a truly fearsome weapon in the hands of a skilled master, is their preferred tool. Years of training have strengthened their bodies to such a degree that no armour is beyond their abilities, and the wise, or at least wealthy, warrior chooses sturdy chain or plate to protect himself when danger is present. Confident in their abilities and arms, some warriors choose to forsake magical enchantments all together. They posses a particular affinity for horses, for the noble Valorian steed has been bred for generations on the same soil these warriors call home. They are a fitting companion for any adventure into the farflung realms of Britannia.

Fighters are among the Older Professions.
