Knave (C&S class)

"Chansels (or, if men, Chansiers) seem to be an unflattering stereotype of non-cloak and sword PCs (or players who act like this is a normal dungeon setting?), derogated as unmoored and violent petit bourgeoise, greedy, "only eat one meal a day," uncaring of discomfort, romanceless freaks who take a scientific approach to killing. Damn meal-a-days."

Thats you. You're one of those.

Knave

Assume very high base statistics like HD, toHit or Save. Perhaps even the best amongst the other classes.

Start with a set of munition plate, a shield, spear, battleaxe, crossbow and dozen bolts, 3 jugs of alchemists fire and a backpack filled with other adventuring equipment. All ugly, practical and probably painted black.

Cynic: You are immune to Esprit, Charm, Honor and Love. As long as you are cruelly mocking them the whole time, you may make an extra attack a round against anyone acting on strong emotion.

Crack in the armor: If you ever discover the value of Honor, Love, Friendship or Selflessness and begin doubting your ways, you may try to abandon this class and become a Knight. This will be hard.

Campaigner: You may freely wear armor, several weapons, a pack of equipment and two sacks of treasure without becoming encumbered. You are unbothered by mud, dirt and lack of hygiene.

Meal-a-day: You may eat a third of what normal people eat without your strength waning. You will never suffer from malnutrition, food poisoning or any disease or rot carried by what you ate. You can drink dirty, still and brackish water without any issues. Worth noting actual poison still works.

Delver: You partially learn the indoor map of any underground location you enter - only the shapes, locations and exits of the rooms are revealed to you. You can also function and fight comfortably in cramped spaces.

Marauder: Whenever you enter a location you learn the location of its most valuable treasure. You can loudly ransack a room of everything valuable leaving it a wreck in just a single minute.

Boor: You lack manners, your humour is crude and you probably stole all of your equipment. You are not welcome in any sort of even halfway polite society and suffer a -1 to reaction checks with anyone with a hint of etiquette but get a +1 with soldiers, outlaws, criminals and other fellow assholes.

Mercenary: You are renowned for your efficiency and have an eye for military job offers. Power hungry people with no principles seek you out, and you can easily negotiate up the pay you receive for such jobs.

Dirty fighting: People think twice before challenging you to a duel. Whenever you hit someone in melee combat, roll a d6 for an extra effect:

1. Stun them for 1 round by groin blow
2. Knock them down
3. Grapple or shield bash them
4. Blind them temporarily
5. Shank them
6. Roll twice and combine

When you get "roll twice and combine" three times on a roll you simply kill the opponent by a single blow to the throat or heart. They void their bowels as they pathetically die, and everyone who saw that must save or lose all Esprit they hold and probably throw up.
