From the stalwart Defenders of Albion come the brawny Armsmen, clad in heavy plate and wielding all manner of weapons. Though they use no magic, the warriors more than make up for it with pure strength of arms, ideal for taking up the front line for any battle.
Alone, an armsman is quite capable, especially as they become more skilled and begin to learn the use of a crossbow and platemail - training which is reserved for those skilled enough to assist the guards at the border keeps. Properly equipped, most armsmen will emerge victorious against an enemy their equal, though they may take some time to recover from their wounds.
Teamed with a healer, an armsman is an unstoppable steel behemoth that can churn through the ranks of enemies like none other; as long as the healer has energy to work that is. Though perhaps not as flashy as other professions, Armsmen are an invaluable part of any raiding party.
