Title: Need help naming something
Post by: Arnkel on April 23, 2006, 10:40:25 AM
I'm working on one of my warrior based classes but I can't think of a name for one of them. For now, I'm calling it(as a placeholder for a better name) the Peasent Hero. The idea of the class is that the character is a lower class warrior who has trained himself to wield weapons. In addition he has some ranger skills, some rogue skills, and has bonuses to a chosen craft/profession skill.

Sounds like a Robin Hood kind of thing? Maybe Folk Hero, Swashbuckler, Outlaw Hero, Brigand Hero, ace, celebrity, champion, gallant... I'm not good at names either. Try to let the idea come at its own pace.

The Jack-of-all-trades.  Or maybe even just a Jack?

Here's vote for Folk Hero (nice suggestion Velox). It's simple, short, and covers many different types of people. For the class you have described, it seems like a perfect fit.

Nastynate: agreed, Folk Hero it is. I'll have the class posted in a few days.
