Ronin
“ | Bushido is but a tether for the weak. I was set adrift, my son, a wave on the sea of life. And in travelling the world, I have grown strong. I give my strength to you, now. | ” |
When a samurai is exiled from the service of his lord, he either commits seppuku or becomes a ronin. But this class is not for those ronin. Instead, this focuses on the progeny of the dishonorable warrior, who is recognized as a ronin himself, whether he has done anything dishonorable or not. Growing up in a harsh world, bearing the weight of their father's actions, and otherwise fending for himself has taught the ronin one thing: Clean fighters never win. As such, the ronin is a master of cheap shots and intimidation.
Making a Ronin
A ronin focuses on mobility and flanking. While he shares several abilities with that of the rogue and ranger, he is better at head on combat then either of them. Of course, he lacks the hit points of some of the more martially inclined classes.
Abilities: Charisma is the most important ability for a Ronin, followed by Dexterity and Strength. A ronin has little use for Wisdom or Intelligence, and Constitution is important if you want more hit points.
Races: Any race that can become a samurai can become a ronin. Still, most ronin are humans, elves, or hobgoblins.
Alignment: Ronins tend to be chaotic, simply to spite the lawful society that outsted them, but there is no reason that they cannot be lawful.
Starting Gold: 5d4×10 gp (125 gp).
Starting Age: Moderate.
