Original design by Segmarian.

Critique

  • Level requirement is artificially high.
  • Weapon finesse is unnecessary since no weapon has to be used with finesse. Characters with high Dex will learn Weapon Finesse if they benefit from it.
  • Flurry is certainlky good but a bit boring. Something like "Versatility", e.g. the ability to use any weapon to inflict
  • Tower Shield proficiency is a bit iffy. The thing that irks me is that it is a since, specific item.


Hit Die: d10.
