Cataphract

CLASS DESCRIPTION

A Cataphract is an heroic Duellist that has passed beyond Dragoon and become a foremost expert in martial combat, their skill with polearms is unmatched, and they fear no mortal foe. Those that reach this exceptional level at a young age are amongst the greatest adventurers of the region, often known throughout the land for heroic deeds or tyrannous actions. A Cataphract often takes up a place in a grand army, ready to defend the kingdom from all those who wish it harm.

As with most heroes, a Cataphract is wealthy and very well equipped, with enchanted weapons and armour, custom made or claimed while adventuering, and as well known as the Cataphract themselves. This wealth will have come from a life of adventuring, their lofty status or through power over others.


A hero, good or evil, must have completed some great feet, achieved a near impossible task or slain a mighty foe to fully unlock their most powerful abilities.
