The Warrior is a role that appears in SlashTHEM. They are a pure fighting-class derived from the Knight that starts with similar proficiency in riding, though they lack the Knight's jumping ability and less emphasis on offensive spellcasting and mounted combat - the polearms, lance and spellcasting skills outside of divination spells are restricted for Warriors.
Warriors must be lawful or neutral, and can be played as clockwork automata, dwarves, elves, giants, gnomes, hobbits, humans, or kobolds.
The Warrior's starting pet is a saddled pony. Just like the Knight, a Warrior's riding skill starts out Basic, allowing the player to pick up items while riding.

- XL 30: Patriarch/Matriarch
Strategy
The Warrior is a combat-oriented role. His high physical stats allow him to fight in melee most of the time while also allowing him to use a variety of ranged weapons. However, the complete lack of any spellcasting skills means the Warrior will have difficulty casting higher-level spells. They also don't get a lot of useful intrinsics or techniques by leveling up.
The Warrior's quest artifact is extremely hard to obtain thanks to the Archnemesis' difficulty; basically, the quest forces the Warrior to fight a beefed-up version of Master Kaen.
Being a drow can aid in the Warrior's melee fighting abilities, and a vampire Warrior can deal extra damage by feeding on enemies.
Origin
The Warrior is based on the Gauntlet role with the same name. If the Warrior is weak from hunger, the game will display "Warrior needs food, badly!", which is a reference to Gauntlet's low health warning.
