Traditionally Rangers have concerned themselves with the defence of the city of Mercinae and the civilised villages of the eastern Greenwood. They are the first line of defence against the goblins, the foul beasts of the Cult and from invasion by the cities of the north. Rangers are therefore grizzled, hardy folk. They offer protection to those travelling through the forests and have the skill to fight away even the most mighty of enemies. Rangers love the forests, the freedom of unmolested exploration and blissful relaxation.
Rangers fight like bears to defend their loves for once crossed they are enemies for life.
Rangers learn Forestry, Stealth, Poisons, Herbs, and Trapping to accompany standard skills all have. This gives Rangers a distinct advantage in the forests they make their homes in. Rangers are masters of stealthy hit and run fighting, not brawny knights bashing about themselves in combat. Poisons for damage to a foe, and Herbs to heal yourself from attacks. The Greenwood Forest is the home of the Rangers, and to defend it at all costs is their duty.
