[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 7957203, member: 63508"] To me, the noble really feels like a missing archetype of D&D. There is no good was to play an adventuring child of a noble or king whose increased wealth provides them with better training. The [U]3e[/U] fighter lacked the knowledge and conversation skills a noble should have. The [U]3e[/U] rogue gave you that but it added the criminal and backflippy elements. It would be cool to have a noble or aristocratic class that gives you the bard's speech, the rogue's knowledge, and the fighter's skill with light arms. [U]4e[/U] helps as you could play a warlord and focus on the buffs and heals. But it forces you into a heavy and sticks you in the frontline in combat. Plus it doesn't really give you the option of an magical twist as the magic classes are very magical. [U]5e[/U] lets you give speech sills to your fighter but you are a super warrior. It's almost there but It misses the expertise. You can kludge one together as a fighter/rogue/bard but it is ugly. It would be geet to havethe option of light amror, simple weapons, a choice of the Int, Wis, Cha skills, bonus languages, and a choice of "tutors" that give you bonus weapon, item, armor, and tool profiecency or a few spells.
