=====Swordsman=====
While anyone can pick up a blade and call themselves a warrior, a swordsman is a cut above the rest. Their skill, precision, focus, and strength make sword fighting look more like a dance than a form of combat, and their degree of prowess makes them just as many enemies as friends. Swordsmen become famous, intentionally or not, through the use of their discipline, and it's not uncommon for some to hunt down particularly famous ones to best them in a duel. A swordsman needs to love the art fighting and be willing to face whatever challenges come their way to not only succeed, but survive.

Price of Fame does not affect incoming ranged attacks.
