Description
Across the lands, there exist divisions of soldiers with expert specialization in their field whose coordination with each other grants them peerless effectiveness on the battlefield. These are referred to as the sworn, a short moniker for those who are "sworn to the craft". Sworn might serve any nation or any creed, but they always fight in unison and fall into formation when battle begins.
The spear sworn are a type of sworn characterized by their specialization with heavy pikes made for picking off enemies that get too close to them. Spear sworn act as mobile danger zones and are most effective in conjunction with aegis sworn, impaling enemies that get knocked down and are left vulnerable after approaching the shield wall.
