Swashbuckler
    Benefits: When unarmored or wearing armor no heavier than studded leather, swashbucklers gain a +2 armor class bonus. This bonus is in addition to any other AC modifiers such as a high Dexterity and magical defensive items. (This is equal to the optional defensive bonus class ability, and the two cannot be combined.) Also, due to their roguish charm, swashbucklers gain a +2 reaction roll bonus from NPC members of the opposite sex.
    Hindrances: As the swashbuckler seeks out adventure, so too does adventure find him. Life, and the DM, should conspire to make reality interesting for the character. For example, if a swashbuckler is fleeing the outraged sibling of one of his paramours, his flight might carry him across the path of a defenseless peasant who is being harassed by a gang of ruffians. Or, if a swashbuckler leaps overboard to escape the buccaneers who shanghaied him, he discovers that the waters are infested with sahuagin riding sharks.

After a brief career as a moderately successful if sporadic adventurer in the swashbuckler style, with a somewhat roguish outlook on life, Jarek had a chance meeting with an incarnation of The Lady Of Joy. He stayed with her for a year and a day becoming enamored of the Bardic lifestyle as a wandering minstrel and storyteller. He was contacted by agents of the Harpers shortly thereafter and was part of a group that explored a small part of Myth Drannor. During his adventures there, with the company of the White Raven, he gained his elfin magic items and his rapier.

A lean looking handsome man with black hair and blue eyes. He has extraordinary balance and hand-eye co-ordination and is well versed in hand-to-hand combat. He dresses well favoring darker colors with hints of reds and purples. He has a certain roguish charm about him, and a winning smile that few can resist. Some of his more romantic escapades have led him into conflict with a few would-be suitors of ladies that he has pursued.

Although originally a warrior by trade, Jarek's heart was not really in it. He was a romantic at heart and did not really study hard in the arts of war. He was too slim and undisciplined to be a true warrior or knight, but was well educated and more a fop. He had the wrong temperament to be a priest, and lacked the discipline to study The Art. His father, a well-to-do merchant despaired of him ever becoming a leader of men and a soldier, as he was too tender hearted to become a merchant. His younger brother, Balinor, became head of the merchant house when his father retired. Jarek dallied in several areas of study. The one area he did excel in was swordplay and mastered the lightweight rapier at an early age. His meeting with The Lady Of Joy changed him, and gave him a direction in his life, bringing joy and laughter where he can. He is a good friend to those with sorrows and well able to lighten the darkest mood with a witty story or joke. He also knows when to be a good friend and lend a quiet shoulder. His transformation into a talented bard released his sporadic talent for The Art, but he still refuses to study in depth. One of his companions in The Company Of The White Raven, Llewellyn of The Dale offered to tutor him in magic. This he regrets to this day, as Jarek is a wayward student given to sporadic bursts of study. Jarek's usual list of spells are ones that can be cast quickly and that can be quite showy. A volley of Magic Missiles, a blast of light, or sudden illusion are his favorites.
