Hide Hunters are humans that specialize in hunting grazer herds. There are only a small number of hide hunters left, and they are exceptionally tough horse warriors. They wear gaudily painted hide armor and carry wooden shields. Every hide hunter rides a light warhorse and they only dismount their horses to sleep. Like most steppe warriors, they are wary of strangers but usually are not immediately hostile.
The fighter presented above has base stats of Str 13, Dex 11, Con 12, Int 10, Wis 9, Cha 8 and added its bonus ability point to Dex.
Combat
Hide Hunters use their lances only to bring down grazers. In other instances they will shoot arrows at their foes to weaken them, and then will draw their swords and charge into melee. They will almost always fight while on horseback.
