As a Warrior, you are a powerhouse on the battlefield, commanding respect through sheer strength and fearless aggression. Whether tearing through enemies in a savage wilderness or asserting dominance among gangs in chaotic streets, your might is unmatched. You charge into danger with overwhelming force, confident that your raw power will see you through any challenge.

Inspired by the barbarian class and the cutter playbook. You might be called a bravo, cutter, champion, brave, or street fighter.
