The Jingoist is a master of their style, no one can wield a weapon like them thanks to the uncountable combats they have faced. They are fierceless warriors that enjoy war and some go out of their way to encite them just for their amazement. A Jingoist could be a nostalgic veteran who fantasize about his best moments, a maniac that brings destruction and desolation wherever he goes, or someone that simply enjoy fighting a little too much.
