Fights like a Demigod

Translation Codex

Masters of personal combat abound in myth. They are frequently children of the gods or those possessing their weaponry or blessing. Some are simply incredibly experienced soldiers fighting for their city-state or ruler. Some even fight for love.

These demigodlike warriors usually specialize in a particular form of battle or a specific weapon combination. They show us all the benefits of mastering the art of war -a single-minded obsession leading to legendary fighting prowess. The downside, from my perspective, is that you're the kind of person who winds up on a battlefield. I'd rather be exploring or studying.
