Class: Pirate

The Pirate is a Fighter with great sustain in combat and damage that comes into play over a long period of time. The Pirate is a class with a relatively high skill cap, but no real counter in terms of strategy. A brigand and a wolf of the sea, the pirate must have Deception, Torture, or Physique. Pirates may begin with Sunder.
