[QUOTE="Zerith, post: 5459552, member: 99953"] Shields are not classed as armor when used as weapons, when used to bash, they are considered martial. Meaning a character able to use shields of all kinds as well of armor but only has simple weapon proficiency can use the sheilds for the full AC bonus without taking a nagative to their attacks with their main weapon, but would take a -4 penalty if they tried to bash somone. I think a noble with even the most basic training would know how to clobber the other guy in the face with one, keeping in mind, most are also feudal knights. Also: their are a lot of martial weapons, 33, meanwhile, there are only 19 simple ones. That said, might, and probably will, remove the long sword and replace it with a rapier, that seems like a better choice for him; any thing that is light is golden :D Also, since he is still a WIP: I can still change his hair, its going to be black to gold to black and arranged into feather shaped clumps; yesh, he stands out in any kind of crowed, although I'm not sure if that will be ok for natural hair color ^^; addon: ooo, I thought PF was closed content, might have to look into it :3 Addon two: I'm starting to see him as a more imposing figure, thus, massive groth spurt XD [/QUOTE]
