Peasant Hero (1.0) - Adventurer Class
Often known as: militia, peasant fighters, and foot soldiers. This class is seen in every culture to various degrees. Due to their upbringing around farming tools and implements they know how to use a wide range of weapons and are even experienced at hunting.
Playing the Peasant Hero
If you want a character that has access to a wide range of weapons but wears little or no armor this is the class for you. This class is based on the classic “farm boy” archetype that is a young and naïve soul is forced to learn about the wide world. We do not usually have the more exotic LARP weapons that this class can use as loaners, so you will be responsible for coming up with your own.
