Brief Rundown of the Ankylos

By tradition, the Ankylos are the military caste of Saurian society. Ankylos are introduced to fighting in small groups as a form of competitive team combat for sport and the entertainment of other Saurians. Ankylos age into roles in the city guard, in militaries, or as hired bodyguards. These combat roles well suit the Ankylos as they are the heaviest among Saurian kind and possess both natural weapons and natural defense. Along their back, the Ankylos have contiguous bone plates that create their shell and their tail ends in a club formed from more of the same bone plates.

Brief History of the Fighters 

Fighters learn the basics of all combat styles. Every fighter can swing an axe, fence with a rapier, wield a longsword or a greatsword, use a bow, and even trap foes in a net with some degree of skill. Likewise, a fighter is adept with shields and every form of armor. Beyond that basic degree of familiarity, each fighter specializes in a certain style of combat. Some concentrate on archery, some on fighting with two weapons at once, and some on augmenting their martial skills with magic. This combination of broad general ability and extensive specialization makes fighters superior combatants on battlefields and in dungeons alike.
