Kensai

Classes

Class Summary

The Kensai is a specialized combat character. He relies upon disciplined training and mastery in the art of swordsmanship and hand to hand combat to face monsters, other races, or whatever other dangers lurk around the next corner. The Kensai is known for being extremely agile and coordinated, being able to dodge many quick melee attacks. However, this agility comes at the price of the Kensai's unwillingness to don any form of armor, a deficit which is overcome in time through the Kensai's training.

• No Spellcasting ability

• Cannot wear armor

• Cannot use ranged weapons
