Barrier Warrior

“	Dun, dun-dun-dun, dun-dun, dun-dun can't touch this dun, dun-dun-dun...	”
—A. Egis, Halfling Barrier Warrior

Some people like to be on the forefront of battle, dishing out every bit as much as they receive in a heated exchange of sword blows. The barrier warrior is perhaps furthest removed from that primal desire for close combat savagery, and instead prefers the safety and security of force-generated barriers to separate them from their enemies. As such, the average barrier warrior has never built up a tolerance for getting hit and is therefore exceedingly fragile. But in return, the defense that their barriers afford them and their allies is nearly unsurpassed in quality.

Making a Barrier Warrior

A barrier warrior's strongest point is their defense, both of themselves and of others, employing their extremely durable mutable barriers in various shapes and arrays, allowing them to eventually erect walls, envelop themselves and allies in perimeter shields, and employ other forms of force-based protection. Ironically, the barrier warrior's weakest point also is their defense, as without the aid of their protective barriers they can't stand to take much punishment.

Abilities: Charisma is the defining attribute for a barrier warrior. Without a powerful force of personality, they can't generate a very powerful force of deflection. As such, barrier warriors are often glib speakers, prolific artists or performers, and capable socialites. Strength is a nonissue for a barrier warrior, as they eventually learn to use their psychic powers to lift or manipulate objects and create telekinetic slams. A little Constitution might come in handy, however.

Races: The more charismatic the average exemplar of a certain race, the more prodigious a barrier warrior they would make, although races with a higher propensity for toughness only rarely see the point of walking this path.
