Need help finding a name for an Archetype

[Barak]

Heavy horses are termed Destriers (spelling?), and I believe light horses were termed Coursers or something like that? I am not entirely sure without a dictionary handy to double check, but the terms could be applied to your class/variant.

While Destriers is correct, Coursiers is the second term. Although what that has to do with this thread escapes me.

Duels can be fought with literally any weapon, including guns, maces and giant robots.

Giant robots at ten paces!

Reminds me of Battletech games in high school. Nothing quite like spending half an hour statting out a 100-ton assault mech, only to run up and double-punch the other guy in the head. Not much armor, and that's where the cockpit is, so quick kill and hefty salvage.

For the class, Ny, what about "Spadassin" ?

You know, that works. That definitly works. It essentually means "due(/a)list", or "fighter" - but it doesn't at the same time; it doesn't have that connentation.

However, convinving my players than they aren't playing a character who wishs to backstab potatoes will be interesting

Thanks to everyone else who gave a suggestion or helped clarify soemthing, but for now I think that's all I'll need. Also, Rackhir, thanks for the link to an actual d20 Spadassin class

How about gladiator or brawler?

ps - I just learned that skirmish comes from the same root as scaramouche!

Spadassin (or, in Portuguese, Espadachim -- rhymes with sheen) literally means "swordsman".
