BLADEMASTER BLADEMASTERS 'BLADE MASTER

BLADEMASTER
 
There are those fighters in the lands of Aabahran who swearing their
blood oaths upon their blades dedicate their life to achieving perfection in
the art of swordplay. 
 
These Blademasters focus on accuracy and agility above brute force and by
becoming one with their chosen weapon are capable of fighting with speed and
grace unknown to any other profession.  Able to attack with equal ferocity
with one or two weapons, they study the anatomy of their enemies and land
terrifying critical strikes to cripple and disable their opponents.  Their
focus on dexterity and agility in combat allows them to choose various
battle positions as well as weapon placement in order to adapt to any
situation.  Late in their career they begin to learn secret stances allowing
them to perform feats in combat impossible for any other guild and become
experts and masters in anatomies of their choice.
 
However, these abilities do not come without a price.  The Blademasters
cannot wear heavy armors or equipment lest it hinder them in battle, and
they must enter deep meditation in order to restore their clarity of mind
required for their battle skills.
