[QUOTE="Stormborn, post: 3138770, member: 14041"] If there are any eliete fighters in the game, then they are the ones who practice those styles. The king's body guards, a group of dueling bravos, the guardian knights of the inquisition. It works. Anything that is vaguely known and not yet encountered can work. No, you just assumed that famous champion of the god of light was a Paladin, they are really a Crusader. As for those who say "it didnt feel right", that is a subjective opinion. It may not have felt right in your game, that isnt to say it wouldnt work in someone elses. Having said that, I have made the options available in my game by saying that there are people around who know them as well as basic info in books and scrolls, even if the techniques arent normally seen or used. If the PC takes feats and learns one manuever they they can start multiclassing into one of the ToBs core classes. I figure these guys are heroes and they can figure out a new fighting style if they put their minds to it, cant be harder than learning how to do more and more sneak attack damage. Or, they can say "I remeber something my grandfather taught me, he learned it from some hobgoblins when he was a mercenary. Always seemed odd but that incedent back there got me thinking of it and I am going to start practicing some of those old moves." It makes as much sense as someone saying "My inner talent for magic has manifested itself. I am going to multiclass as a Sorcerer." [/QUOTE]
