headhunter#

Headhunters are warriors who find little difficulty in disposing of thieves and law-breakers. They use the shadows to hide and break their opponents. They give orders easily to others forming controlled combat situations. They develop great authority quickly and at times can seem to resemble an extension of the law itself.

Roleplay And Details#

The class begins as headhunter, mercenary, savant, sexton, and eventually becomes warlord. Warlords are most commonly known as hunters of thieves. They are very adept in merging themselves into the underground of thievery. They carry a common assortment of underground tactics in subduing their enemies. They are dexterous warriors in a nutshell usually wielding two weapons of any kind except ranged weapons. It is sometimes rumored that a warlord had once mastered the art of Shadow Walking and had merged between the worlds of the ancients and man congruently. Of course this is still considered a rumor but suspicions arise commonly in the Maginaerum Arcanum where Master Mattik resides as the Minister of Political Affairs. The most common races for the class are Human, Dwarf, Elf, Goblin, Halfling, Troll, Orc, and Half-Orc.
