Swashbuckler

Dashing swordsmen, audacious pirates, and fearless duelists, Swashbucklers are warriors who rely on speed, cunning, and style to overcome their foes. Whether fighting for honor, glory, or pure adventure, they wield their blades with elegance and bravado. Blades dance in your hands as you leap, weave, and taunt your foes into making fatal mistakes. You are a whirlwind of agility and charm, an artist of combat whose battlefield is the stage for your greatest performance.
