Combat Sigil

The Combat Sigil displays the various areas of skill in which a combatant may seek training. It is made up of four offensive and four defensive disciplines.

There are four armor schools: Light Armor (Cloth & Leather), Medium Armor (Chain & Scale), Heavy Armor (Plate), and Shields. There are four weapon schools: Blades (Swords & Axes), Polearms (Halberds & Spears), Bludgeons (Hammers & Clubs), and Ranged (Bows & Crossbows).
