Bashkar

Bashkar’s are fighters who charge headlong into battle with little or no regard for their own mortality. They live for combat and the thrill of battle, the salty spray of blood that spills from the broken bodies of their enemies, the groans of agony and the death screams of the battle field. They are the best rough and tumble fighters of all the classes, bar brawlers extrordinaire. They have all the subtlety of an avalanche — exhibit practically no magical skill or table manners whatsoever. Bashkars are best for those who don’t mind taking the direct approach, even when a ravaging horde is in the way. Another method might be more productive but not as grimly satisfying.

Bashkars begin with skill in the axe, and the art of enraging them-selves to increase damage and gain an additional attack. Shields are for wimps, and duel-wielding is simply the only way to go and technique is for Elves. Almost any weapon or combat skill may be purchased cheaply.
