Shield Fighter

The character is trained in how to make good use of his or her shield, but also in how to actively fight using the shield as a weapon. Behind the protection of the shield, the character can generate a great momentum to fuel its attacks, as well as strike with the shield itself. This is an effective combination which probably explains why it is so common among both barbarian and Ambrian warriors.
The buckler, the light shield usually utilized by archers, is too light to be used with the Shield Fighter ability. The warrior has to carry a sturdy shield made of either wood or steel to generate the required amount of force.
