Freeblade Image

Freeblades are independent warriors that wander the land in search of contract work. They posses all the knowledge necessary to survive on their own in the wilderness. Freeblades choose to live off the land itself, hunting and gathering their own food, utilizing every part of the animals they kill. Many Freeblades dedicate themselves to a particular trade, most often, they are particularly adept at Herbalism and Alchemy, crafting various draughts to augment their abilities in combat, however, some Freeblades are also smiths, tinkerers, or cartographers. 

It is important to note that Freeblades is a common term that refers to warriors that operate outside of the authority of a lord, and without the support of a mercenary company, meaning that no two are alike.
