 * The Gladiator is built with Strength and Awareness in mind. Due to this, they are rather flexible between spears, swords, hammers, and axes.


 * They start with two weapons: dual wielded Pugios and a Worn Trident along with a Wooden Parma. Along with their Strength and Awareness, this could be used to change out weapon builds before heading into encounters.
