Below is a list of advantages and disadvantages you pick to replace advantages/disadvantages you might have or simply add to your character's list for flavor. For every advantage you pick you have to pick a disadvantage, however.
You can also choose to replace one of your character's racial excel and decel stats with one of the Warrior's choices.
Excel Stats: Strength, Melee, Energy (1 level up gives you 10 points in each.)
Detriment Stats: Magik Offense, Magik Defense, Mind (2 level ups give you 5 points in each.)

Advantage: You can double your strength for 1 minute when you are incrediblely angry.
Advantage: You can pick up on foreign weapons easier, coupled with certain talents below.
Disadvantage: You have trouble with magik attacks.
Disadvantage: Magik attacks sometimes do double damage against you.
When you reach Lv. 25 with the Warrior, they can either be upgraded to Knight Class or Master of Arms Class.
If you have an idea for a talent/ability/skill not listed below you fill fits into the Class listed, speak with the GM to create it. If it too advanced, he might just inform you it will go into the Advanced Class version of the Class.
Talents:
1) Foreign Weapon Knowledge: Unknown weapons, even those from long ago or other races or beyond the stars comes naturally to you. Coupled with the advantage above, you can pick up on these weapons usage quicker with each tier learned. You might not be able to use it, per say, if the tier is too high.
Tier 1 - Visual Contact of Weapon: Your knowledge of weapons outside standard weapons used by your area/people/planet is enhanced by study and use. When you encounter a new weapon, you can grasp the basic fundamentals of it, though you can't do much with it yet. It helps if you see it in action. At this tier, if you can see a weapon being used by an enemy, you can more quickly grasp it's mechanics at this tier. 1 Class Level cost
Tier 2 - Handling Foreign Weapons: If the player can get their hands on a foreign weapon, they can begin studying. If they have the advantage, or have seen it in action with tier 1, the handling process of tier 2 can go faster and allow them more insight into how the weapon works. Based on how much mind, how much training and testing is done, this tier will reveal various aspects of the weapon. 1 Class Level cost
Tier 3 - Foreign Weapon Use: This allows, if the weapon is within your tier range, to handle the foreign weapon to some degree of capability. You cannot bring it's full baring or majestic use upon the world, but you can wield it to some degree of talent. 1 Class Level cost
Tier 4 - Foreign Weapon Normalcy: This lets you wield a foreign weapon like any other weapon with normal talent and skill that you might have picked up over the years. 1 Class Level cost
Tier 5 - Foreign Weapon Exceptional: This lets you wield a foreign weapon with as much skill as any other weapon based on your character's talents with weapons and skill.

2) Warrior Dual Wielding: Those with this talent have focused on perfecting their natural talent of wielding two weapons at once, putting to use primary and secondary weapons to use. With each tier, this leaves you with less penalities for wielding two weapons at once, though you will never be as good as a Rogue at it, this is more for Warriors.
Tier 1 - Dual Wielding Fists: This focuses on your fists as you dual wield them together. You can begin to perform chains with rapid punches, so you can take this tier into other abilities and skills below. 1 Class Level cost
Tier 2 - Dual Wielding Short Blades: This focuses on dual wielding smaller weapons, allowing you quickly use them for parrying and striking more quickly than you would without this tier. The faster your reflexes and speed, the better you will be at moving with shorter blades for striking with it, along with melee weapons. 1 Class Level cost
Tier 3 - Dual Wielding Swords: This focuses on the swords dual wielding aspect of the talent tree, allowing you to wield them both. This works on the same logic as Tier 2. 1 Class Level cost

3) Defense Stance: The defensive stance, while nearly an ability, is more of a talent as it's self-taught to protect you from damage and once you ground in, you're not influence you're stats and you're not attacking. This helps you take damage before you can unleash an ability or skill against an enemy.
Tier 1 - Defensive Footing: This allows you to find your footing against basic attacks that would knock you over; it will not stop any damage, merely help you against the weakest of attacks meant to knock you over, like someone trying to barrell past. It takes a few seconds to shift so you need time to form up as the person runs at you. 1 Class Level cost
Tier 2 - Solid Ground: A more superior version of the tier above, this allows you to shift into this stance faster to stop basic barrelling into you and basic attacks instantly to pervent people trying to escape your clutches. 2 Class Level cost
Tier 3 - Quick Stance Dodge. This factors heavily in with your speed and reflex stats as well. If you feel you cannot dodge an attack, or the GM warns you, if you use this tier you can attempt to dodge the attack altogether with a rapid shuffle move, or at least move your fatal areas. 2 Class Level cost
Tier 4 - Defensive Stance Form 1. Forming up with your weapons or your own arms/armor, you are able to block certain attacks that come in at you, turtling up to take damage. If it's clear you cannot take the attack, you can fall back on Tier 3 above and use it instead. This allows you to take full strikes from enemies up to a certain number before it breaks. It depends on the strength of the enemy and your own stats before this form breaks 1 Class Level cost
Tier 5 - Defensive Stance Form 2. The same as above, only it can take more damage before shattering. 2 Class Level cost

4) Weapon Training Talent: Warriors are trained with weapons and their fists. Below there are no tiers filled out because this is meant for each players to chart the tiers for their own course. The tiers are meant to be built up in the way that allows you to make your own weapon handling more devastating talent wise, not attack skills. Meaning, quick draw, quick throw, quick aim, or more accuracy, better handling with spears, etc. You could opt to go the route of various talents with weapons. You will also find one of these in abilities, for allowing you chart a course with buffing stats with your weapons, like more attack power, or defensive, or accuracy.
---
5) Focus: Warriors have to focus their mental combat skills and anger and rage into a keen spot of focus. This talent is more important than one realizes due to the simple fact that warriors have to face a lot along the way of combat, and situations. Below are the various tiers. This is very close to an ability, and by taking this it will open up abilities.
Tier 1 - Meditative State. Whenever a warrior meditates and focuses their energy, when they have time to do so, depending on the length of time they are able to sit and do so, they are able to be more focused and able bodied during combat, capable of seeing and focusing their attacks more directly and precisely, and seeing things they might not normally see. This is aided more with perception and mind stats being higher. 1 Class Level Cost
Tier 2 - Inner Focus I: If a warrior can find time within a combative situation to stand there and take a minute to breathe in and out, focusing their spiritual flow and mana and energy, they can sharpen their senses and be alert to incoming blows easier and prepare to strike faster and more alertly than before, allowing them to fight better than before. 2 Class Level cost
Tier 3 - Inner Focus II: The same as above, only the time of focus is cut down to 30 seconds instead of a minute. 2 Class Level cost
Tier 4 - Split Second Focus: This is similiar to Tier 2 and 3 but this can only be used once. This also unlocks an ability tree named after this Tier, which will let you open it up more than once. This allows the person to take their inner focus and instead of 30 seconds to focus their talents to into combative prowness, they can do it a in a split second. 2 Class Level cost
Tier 5 - Outer Focus. Allowing the warrior to focus outward, they attuned to details in their environment when it comes to combat/battle. When a battle is going on, they are able to notice details of their environment others might notice, as well as unusual enemies and combative focuses of others. 1 Class Level cost

6) Mental Split: This allows a warrior to split pieces of themselves off to deal with various situations; some use it to become stone cold killers, others use to survive torture where information might be given, others use to detatch themselves during combat to do battle. Below is a few tiers, while the rest is up to the player to fill out.
Tier 1 - Combative Split. During combat, this split allows you to detatch yourself, if you feel it necessary to get a job done, from yourself so you can focus on the task at hand; it will allow you to shelf the emotional carnage you might feel to the side to deal with later when you reunite it with your main mindset when you have the time to deal witih it. 1 Class Level Cost
Tier 2 - Torture Split. If you are being tortured, you can split off a piece of yourself to deal with the pain; this allows you to find a place within yourself as you're being tortured so you can try not to give up the information the enemy might want from you, no matter how vital it may be. The problem is after it's all over, you have to deal with it sooner or later. 3 Class Level cost
