Or at least until someone makes Jumpspear Berks: The Sword School and lets Dragoons swap stuff out for it. :P

Fun Fact: In NWOD, there are actually five horsemen, not four. They are Pestilence (white horse, AKA Conquest), Conflict (red horse, AKA War), Famine (black horse), Chance (grey horse), and Death (pale horse). They link up to the five Thresholds of Sin-Eaters.

The idea of there being five Horsemen isn't exactly unique to WoD. Of the four Riders of Revelation, only the Pale Horse is actually given a name (Death) and is implied to wield disease and rot (a.k.a. Pestilence). The White Horse as described in Revelation is given the name Conquest, but modern takes on the idea replace him with Pestilence (split from Death) or yet more recently Strife, as Conquest seems too similar to War.

The Red Horse, whom we give the name War, is pretty universally unchanged. The Black Horse, originally ascribed as Famine, has been thought to represent political Corruption or, in a certain more modern work, Fury.

The "Fifth Horseman" is usually said to be Hell ("(...) and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.") or Chaos... or in Isaac, the Dullahan (a.k.a. the Headless Horseman), which is why I gave them a feat with a similar naming scheme. I had in fact thought of writing up a fifth Rider class, but then I thought better of it. :P

Question for the Fury's class completion bonus. It says you and vehicles you pilot get +1 Aura. I'm interpreting that as you getting +1 Aura even when you aren't piloting a Vehicle, but when you are Piloting one you give it the Aura bonus too. Is that correct? Or does the Aura Bonus only come into effect when you are riding?

Fury gets native Aura, vehicles gain additional Aura when she's in the driver's seat, yes.

Alright, I thought so. I was drawing up a new defensive class line and was trying to think of a good completion bonus. +armor was taken, +static defense was taken, +hp was taken so I was considering +aura, but if Fury gets native Aura I'll think of something else.
Perhaps a bonus to Reaction actions or a bonus to his companion's Armor/Aura.

Bonus to Dodge/Parry actions is a bonus to Static Defense at 2:1 rate. Straight-up damage reduction (a la the Daemonic/Black Blood feature) is also a thing that classes don't offer at the moment? If nothing else, could represent training oneself to take hits...

Fixed an oversight in the Bellator/Blackguard/Warlord/whatever track.

Assuming it's just the addition of Swift Attack at 3rd level, would it be a safe bet to assume that the Swift Attack at 5th level is actually Lightning Attack?
