Samurai
|
| The true swordsman of Wizardry 8, the Samurai has dedicated his or
her life to the study of the sword. Their speed and accuracy helps them
to fight their way through most any situation, occassionally striking multiple
times within a single attack. Those who have faced the Samurai refer to
this as "Lightning Strike." Samurai are never afraid, and can learn the
deadly skill of the critical kill. Their mystical side allows them to develop
Mage spells at around the fifth level of esperience. |

| Additional Info: The special ability Lightning Strike is not something
that occurs every time your Samurai swings their sword. Many factors are
involved revolving around the character's attributes, skills, and the weapon
used. Consider a Lightning Strike to be exactly what it is, a rare and
welcome gift. |
