Just outa curiousity... is the class open to Caucasians, Jews, Blacks, Ichthyophagi etc or just Asians? :D

I think I know what you are trying to create, but it doesn't seem necessary to introduce a whole new class to justify it. Whats wrong with just going straight fighter and spending some of your feats on EWP's you like, or multi-classing fighter with a few levels of monk for some flavour and abilities?

A straight fighter with Int 13+ and Dex 13+ is going to be able to access some wonderful and flashy feats such as Whirlwind attack *very* early on in their career. Then all you need is the backstory, how about, as you say... "traval to explore the world and to find worthey opononts so they can train harder and learn how to use new wepons."

Good luck.

Good point the problem is you can only get all the abilitys at first level. Also it is avalibal to all races and ethic races so you can be any ethnic group.

If you can get all the abilities at first level, the class seems too powerful to me with all those EWP feats, but then there is no point in taking this class again for any reason. Ever. You could just become Asian Weapon Master at level one, then switch to fighter or another class for the rest of your career to gain better abilities.

I think your class needs a lot more development, but it hardly seems worth the bother. Like I say, a straight fighter or fighter/monk probably fulfills what you are looking for.

This class is more properly known as taking levels of Fighter and spending the feats on the EWPs.

This isn't a class. This isn't even D&D. There is no "Asia" in D&D.

Maybe there is in cman's game :)

I'm only saying this to be on topic: Just use fighter levels.

with that out of the way, now on to the real buisness, "wepon" is spelt W-E-A-P-O-N.... ok, now I'm better....

And, "buisness" is actually spelled B-U-S-I-N-E-S-S. :P

It is true that you could just be a fighter and get the wepon profincence as a fighter but this but it is fun to get all the wepons at the beging. Also I do have Asia in my game and my character is from there. I think I will make it a prestige class whare you need to have some of the wepons.thanks

Heh heh (imagines a penniless fighter by the road, begging for weapons. "Arms, arms for a poor destitute soldier").

I think you meant beginning though. In absolute brutal honesty, while knowing how to use a large variety of strange and exotic weapons might impress the ladies, it won't help you on the battlefield.

If I may suggest, go Fighter only and take EWP Spiked chain, specialise in it and take the Whirlwind Attack feat tree and combat reflexes. You'll want a high dex and strength, and an intelligence score of at least 13. You'll kick some donkey rear and still look awesome, not to mention being flexible in a fight.. Think Go-go from Kill Bill 1.
