Warrior — Hero Compendium

The Warrior

HP 55 STR 10 DEF 8 SPD 6 RAGE — UNCAPPED

The Warrior fights with muscle and momentum. Every damaging blow feeds the Rage meter (+1 per hit — multi-hit moves count each blow). Rage is never capped, but it is never free:

0 Rage — blows land at half power.
More than 10 Rage — too furious to defend (Parry/Block locked; Finisher and Wind up still work).
Rage comes only from your own attacks — never from being hit or standing idle.
Every battle begins from zero (Fury begins with 1), and every battle ends calm.

FREE: Strike — ONE plain weapon swing, always available, costs no Rage. Base 12 damage (STR 10 × 1.0 + weapon bonus) and grants +1 Rage. The weapon bonus is +1 damage per 5 STR (+2 at STR 10) on every weapon hit.
