First Post
Here's my fighter PrC I've worked on for a while. I've taken things from other PrC's in the Sword and Fist book and melded it into one with a bit of a history thrown in too. This fits the campaign I'm currently playing in and would basically like some feedback on it.
Thanks in advance. Blessed Be.

The Koor-Mah-Lao Legionnaire
The Koor-Mah-Lao Legion is a well respected Arms and Armor supplier as well as an elite training facility for the few who pass their walls.
Their Legionnaires are highly trained combatants and in advanced standing in these select fields: Weaponsmithing, Armorsmithing and Combat Strategy. This allows them the ability to not only protect the people they are with, they can actually help in creating items for them and help plan to accommodate the parties goals.
While their beginnings are shrouded in a cloak of myth and legend, the Legion has become known after the Greyhawk Wars. Many warriors purchased their elite arms and armor from the Lao Arms and Equipment Emporium. Although not involved in training combatants at this time many of the warriors felt a bond with their exceptional weaponry. Two of them came together in the "Year of Peace", Master Mah Lao and Cirrius Koor.
Master Mah Lao was the craftsman who forged the elite weapons and armor with his own hands. Cirrius Koor was a leader in getting the Pact of Greyhawk signed. He was revered for his battle planning and helping to win many battles against the Scarlett Brotherhood. Together they formed a partnership that is known today as the Koor Mah Lao Legion.
Over the years they have grown to have Legion halls in most of today’s places of trade. The graduates of their training programs are known as Legionnaires. They are schooled and passed tests pertaining to the following: Flanking, Cleaving, Attacks of Opportunity, Cleaning Axes and Armor, Sharpening Axes, Dealing with Spellcasters, Dealing with Undead, Dealing with Large Creatures, Dealing with Multiple Limbed Creatures, Dealing with Natural Weapons, Dealing with Flying Creatures, Dealing with Mounted Opponents, Creating and Repairing Axes, Creating and Repairing Armor.
After the schooling phase the Cadets are then released to put to use the knowledge they have gained. Some join town guards or enforcement associations some work for the Legion itself. Some simply go adventuring. When the Cadet deems himself ready they must go to a Legion hall and request their admittance into the Test of Trials. The Test of Trials is a set of battles designed to apply the Cadets knowledge. There are a few legendary battles in the Test of Trials.

Axe of Vengeance: The Legionnaires axe deals double his strength modifier if he makes a successful hit after he has taken at least 5 points of damage in the same round but before his action.
Thanks in advance. Blessed Be.
