Swashbuckler
(PRESTIGE CLASS)

The Swashbuckler is a charming rogue, a scoundrel, a cunning mental adversary; oft-sailor, oft-horseman, oft-running from the law. These men and women tend to be excellent fighters, though in the style of riposte and parry, rather than more heavy-handed styles. They are men and women who can hold their drink, whose ability to find treasure and the like is simply uncanny. They are an enigma, and as likely to pinch your bum as look at you.

Bravado
This ability of the Swashbuckler functions the same as the War Cry spell; except that the level of the Swashbuckler factors in.

Mistress
(PRESTIGE CLASS)

These leather-clad sexy creatures revel in pain and agony. They love to hear the screams of the tortured, and are also partial to a bit of pain themselves. Slaves as they are to their unnatural and perverted urges, Mistresses have a desperately low tolerance of good characters and any work that is not strictly combat or torture related. They love to use a whip as main weapon or a dagger in particular cases.

Adepta Sororitas
(PRESTIGE CLASS)

The Adepta Sororitas, also known as the Sisters of Battle, are an elite sisterhood of warriors raised from infancy to adore and worship the Emperor of Mankind. Their fanatical devotion and unwavering spiritual purity is a bulwark against corruption, heresy and evil attack, and once battle has been joined they will stop at nothing until their enemies are utterly crushed. The Sisters of Battle are trained to the peak of human ability and stand amongst Mankind's most dedicated and disciplined warriors. Wherever there are foes of the Emperor, the Sisters of Battle will be found fighting with faith and steel. When not actively prosecuting the Ecclesiarchy's wars, the battle-sisters of the Orders Militant divide their time between rigorous training and devout worship of the God-Emperor. Indeed, to the Adepta Sororitas, the disciplines are nigh inseparable, for whilst combat drills and studies of battle tactics can hone the body and the mind, only penitent prayer can bolster the spirit, and all three are required to defeat the Imperium's foes. The combination of combat doctrine and prayer is most evident on the battlefield, where battle-sisters loudly proclaim their faith in hymn and verse as they march to war, calling upon the Emperor to aid them in the fight against their enemies. The intense, unquestioning nature of this faith is a potent weapon indeed, manifesting as divine inspiration that drives the Sororitas to unprecedented feats of martial prowess. Sisters of Battle gripped with holy fervour banish worldly fears from their minds, shrug off mortal wounds, and summon preternatural strength to smite their foes. The Sisters of Battle believe their faith to be a weapon stronger than any steel, and those who witness their battlefield miracles are left in no doubt that the spirit of the Emperor indeed walks with these pious warriors.
