OUTRIDER
The Outriders are renowned warriors, masters of mounted combat. Originally a Halfling tradition, other races have learned the skills of the outrider and have formed their own ranks. Outriders are valued as cavalry, as well as lone scouts who can ride quickly to and from enemy lines. Many villages value an outrider as a necessary part of the town guard.

Noble
The Noble is a tricky character to deal with.  Some nobles fit well into the D20 class structure, but many do not.  And while the Aristocrat NPC class works well, it fails the PC noble.  And so I created my own Noble base class.

The Noble base class offers good flexibility to create the noble you want.  You can be a more militant noble, a more social noble, a well schooled noble, or any other noble you may imagine.  A noble is a product of his culture and heritage, and he should have choices to reflect this.

Some Nobles are actual royalty, and bear titles and rule lands, while others travel, or are simply wealthy members of the court, such as merchant princes.  Nobles are trained in the arts of war, as well as the arts of peace, and can find their home either, though most tend to lean towards one or the other.

Nobles are social characters, and work well with others.  They are leaders of men, in small and large groups.  They can get others to work together, coordinating efforts to get the most out of others.  They gain influence and reputation, able to influence others from the advantage of their position.
