Fighter
Base Class: Fighter

The gunslinger is an accurate and lethal ranged attacker. Using pistols or rifles with equal proficiency, he can empty his weapons with blinding speed and deadly accuracy. When enemies close the distance, he may resort instead to the trusty knife concealed in his boot or even to the butt of his gun. His accuracy with firearms is unmatched, his melee skills are sharp as his knife, and his quickdraw is the fastest in the West. [Adapted from Michael Long's Gunslinger class to be a Fighter subclass]
