Militant (Apath)

Unofficial rules compendium

The militant is a fighter variant that is less specialized in fighting techniques and learns more skills. Some militants are militiamen who keep a civilian career on the side. Others are military regulars who learn extensive and specialized skills required for their position, such as naval officers, artillerists, military engineers, mapmakers, and logistics specialists. Others mix might and art as government officials, tax collectors, law enforcers, bodyguards, security specialists, or military advisers.
