Elite Guard or Guard Captain

This character sheet can be used to represent the very best of the regular soldiery - elite troopers, with plenty of combat under their belt. These characters are also often found as the leaders of squads of less efficient warriors. This type of fighter may sometimes be found serving as a bodyguard for very wealthy merchants or as personal retainers to important officials. The equipment of such warriors can vary enormously. Regular chinese soldiers will normally have sword, shield and spear, polearm or crossbow, and wear chain or scale armour with a helmet. However, with an appropriate selection of skills, it is also appropriate for the fierce steppes horsemen sometimes used as enforcers and bodyguards by some chinese officials - in which case they would have light chain or lamellar armour, light swords and powerful bows. Warriors from China's northwestern borders might also carry small shields.

Finally this sheet can be used for wandering swordsmen or bandit leaders who are powerful fighters, but lack formal martial arts training
