Level 15 (+7)
"Attention, grunts! The High Commander will be making an appearance to your sorry little excuse for a barracks, to ensure everyone is performing up to expectations! Now, she is known for not giving a single damned copper for excuses, so I strongly suggest you don’t leave anything lying around you feel the need to make up a story for!"
——Agnon, Guard Sergeant preparing his troops for inspection.
A career soldier of exceptional skill, strength, and fortitude, this seasoned warrior is a master of armed combat and military command. Soldiers that reach this rank in the military are often responsible for overseeing entire sieges and wars on the behalf of the country or city they serve. They usually report directly to the ruling body of their charge, such as a King, High Priest, or powerful Baron. They are extremely well equipped with Full Plate Armor, featuring embellishments that denote their station. They prefer powerful melee weapons such as a flail, coupled with a light shield, and wield a hand crossbow to deal with escaping prisoners or stragglers of an opposing force.
