Warrior Kits

The most common kits used by humanoid characters are the warrior kits. From the semi- organized military training sessions of the goblins and hobgoblins to the humanoid races which learn to fight simply through daily survival, warrior humanoids are everywhere. As most humanoids can only select the fighter class in the warrior group, the kits which follow all belong to that category — with two exceptions. There are two kits which simulate the paladin and ranger classes. Those few humanoid races which can choose these classes must take the appropriate kit to simulate the abilities of paladins and rangers. Here is an overview of the humanoid warrior kits:

• Tribal defenders protect their tribe's territory from all invaders. These warriors represent the typical fighters of a given race. They have the fewest hindrances, and the fewest special abilities.
• Mine rowdies are fighters specially trained to fight in underground or enclosed areas. They are proficient in subterranean survival skills and close-quarters fighting.
• Pit fighters have been trained to fight for the amusement of others. In some cases, their training comes not from their masters but from the simple act of surviving battle after battle.
• Sellswords hire themselves out to others. They act as guards, mercenaries, bounty hunters, and swords-for-hire, taking on any job which requires fighting skills and muscle. This kit is the closest one to a true professional warrior a humanoid can have.
• Saurial paladins are holy saurial warriors — the equivalent of human paladins. This kit is open only to saurials, like Dragonbait of the Forgotten Realms.
• Wilderness protectors are much like rangers, with abilities similar to their human and demihuman counterparts.
