"Over here, squire! I need help with my codpiece!" - Mason Vanguard.
At this point, the thing I enjoy the most is not the gameplay, but creating new characters, seeing what works and what doesn't, often going back to my older designs and see what I can improve, adjust colours a bit better, just do everything in my ability to make it better.

However, I am simply amazed how creative some of you people out there are! Like, you guys come up with ideas I couldn't even think of, it's just astonishing...

I would love to make a collection of some of the most creative, most impressive mercenaries out there, all put into a single guide. It will both serve as something you might want to scroll through very slowly, admiring other people's works, but also hopefully help you find inspiration.

To submit a character leave a comment down below.

1. Use High or Ultra graphics settings for your pictures.

Nothing that could be considered offensive or inappropriate.

Nobleman by yours truly.
What better way to get this collection rolling than throwing at you a couple of my own creations.

A Rather Chainmail-happy Gentleman by yours truly.
I just decided to make merry with chainmail and this is what I ended up with. Quickly became one of my favourite go-to 2-2-2s.

Fashionable Viking by yours truly.
This guy probably doesn't even come close to looking like an actual, historical Viking, but what can you do eh? In fact to me he looks like someone who escaped from the Elder Scroll's universe.

The Guardsmen by GiGi The Russian Hacker
The Guardsmen serves the Chimera Family, a prestigious noble lineage which has fallen on hard times. Its only surviving member, an old lord which can't have children becomes insane under unknown circumstances and becomes a serial killer only known as the Laughing Death. A new lord takes the old one's place, a ruthless leader coming from the Archaic Family. He kicks the guardsmen out from his lands for failing to stop the Laughing Death. The Guardsmen decides to make it his life dedication, to find and kill his old lord for betraying him and his now-dead friends. Although a shortage of coins forces the lad to join a mercenary company...
The Duelist by GiGi The Russian Hacker
The man himself is a tale, a legend, a myth, but is just as real as you or me. He is very easy to spot, wearing old yet well cared for plates of armour and a longsword with mysterious runes embeded within. It is said that the man does not speak, but is very verbal through his body language. There are many tales about his backstory or origin, but the one I believe in the most is this: Once upon a time there was a mercenary company. This man was its best warrior in 1 versus 1 duels, but something happened, something horrific, leaving only this Duelist alive. He now roams the lands, finding places to duel and fight, trying to find a foe to best him, a foe to end his life in honourable combat. But even if he dies now or tommorow, it is assured that kids for generations will listen to tales of The Duelist.

Jak by Jak Sharperten
This loadout specializes in duels but still can be used in group combat if needed. The Longsword will typically be used in most fights however the Arming Sword can be used for more quicker strikes, as a backup if disarmed, or even simply thrown at an enemy to help finish them off or if they prove out of reach. All in all though this is simply a set meant for one who likes to mix up their melee capabilities and not be overly concerned with ranged abilities. Strangely, the armor is able to be quite flexible as mercs using this tend to duck around and under blades more often than naught...even if they just get cleaved seconds later.
Storm Vermin by Jak Sharperten
Named after the viscous ratmen and inspired by the Storm Vermin, this equipment set has decent armor combined with the Halberd is able to cleave through multiple numbers while remaining out of reach. This is typically used to help defend or push through crowds, but is not particularly well suited for one on one combat nor is it best at fighting amongst comrades due to the tendency of horizontal swings to hit allies. However this is none the less formidable in the hands of someone that knows how to use the weapon.

The Crossbow Rat
The Storm Vermin equipment set also has a slight varrient in that the Halberd in favor for a crossbow and hand axe. It also has a higher tier helm to help avoid more unfortunate range attacks to such area. This is more tactically adverse as one can find themselves decent at both range and melee combat even excelling in both if one plays their hand right. In short though the Storm Vermin equipment set and the accompanying mercenaries using that set are formidable in combat and can easily hold down points and even push forward to crush the man-thing... I mean opposition.

The Good Jester by RaisinBrand
"The Good Jester was a man that loved laughter, children, and most of all his good friendship with the king from his hometown, Yirvierra.
One day the jester was entertaining the guests children while the royals were celebrating a feast to their new victory against France, such a big feast that even the guards of the wall were distracted... Which had led to the downfall of the once great kingdom the jester had lived in. Groups of french assassins cornered the king and jester poking them left and right until they tired, but they had plans for the jester oh how they had plans, as they continued the dire torture of the helpless king and jester, They saw how big and tough the jester was that they saw him as a very valuable asset to their conquest.

The assassins finally killed the king along with his wife whilst taking the poor jester battered and asleep to their camp. It was 2 days of journeying towards their camp and finally they had found themselves back and safe except for the jester. He saw the new armour and cloth hanging above him in his cell, "go on, put on your new attire." Said the french guard, "once we are done with your mind, your body will be practically apart of the suit." The jester cried as he saw what was ahead of him, "don't do this! They have nothing against or for this war and you know it!" There was no reply from the guards. Slowly the guards brought out a child every tear the jester had shed and the more they brought out the more the younger the children had been. "This is the test of speed that we will see on the battlefield, you must drag your armour on in the time we give you, and if it is not met in this requirement. We will kill each and every child with a quick poke to the neck. You have exactly 1 minute." Said the french commander, "Hang them by their feet!"

As the children were hoisted up from their legs and strapped onto a large horizontal pole, the timer had begun. The jester had never worn armour before besides a wooden training chest plate when he was young, so he began. "I can't it won't lock, the straps are nothing but pins and needles for my big hands." Said the jester, he shouted and cursed at the guards when he suddenly realised that the dinner bell had already rung. The jester had looked at his work with shame and madness, he was going mad... "We talked to your mother before we brought you here, you are mad but have not yet noticed, you are nothing but a child yourself as she proclaimed." Said the french commander, "put on your suit and be ready for tomorrow. You will finally know how to defend yourself along side your new brothers in arms."

After the franks taught him well how to fight, he escaped with the armour he was specially given. He learned that tears are a sign to the enemy of weakness. He now fights against those who wronged him and his kingdom while holding the name as The Good Jester."

Captain Reynolds of crossbowman infantry by ♠ Radovid V. ♠
The Knife Fighter by Choo Choo
Pretending to be a helpless medic only to ambush his pursuers in dark alleys and cramped corners. Cuts, throws, kicks and punches or runs away if need be. Runs circles around the enemy, catching them unawares or distracting them for a while.
The Flanker by Choo Choo
For serious fighting, he put on some more protection and picked up a real weapon. Weaves into and out of combat to pick off vulnerable enemies, to support friends, but never sticks around for long. He will accept duels with confidence, trusting in his reach and fleet footwork, but will also turn and run when outmatched.
The Frontliner by Choo Choo
Sometimes even scoundrels need to stand and fight. He traded all his tricks and speed for a suit of proper armor to join battle in the foremost ranks.
The Royal Knight by RaisinBrand

Those who are brave enough to face him usually get a quick and spectacular death. But for those who think they can run, well... He grasps his spear and takes aim.
