Hi, everybody! I'm MisterGunpowder, and I'm here today to share a fan-made class with you. I've been working on this class for, oh, about three to four months now, just refining it to my liking. I want to make it known that I am not a professional game designer or a programmer. I have no idea if anything about this class or the skills for it are at all viable or at all possible to program. I only think that they're possible. I won't include commentary on each skill, as if I do that would probably take me far too long to type or I'd see something I didn't like and start working on it again, further delaying my posting it here. (A friend of mine has threatened me with Battlefield Earth if I do not post it. I'm quite certain I'd prefer him to murder me instead.)
This class was based around making a character with a proper Western motif, that would be armored, and would have a corrosion-focused tree. Why all that together? I don't honestly know. Maybe because I didn't want to make a separate class for any of those things.
Remember that constructive criticism, comments, and questions are requested and appreciated. So, without further ado, let's get these skills down.
