Also known as: 劍士, 女戦士, 戦乙女, 戦士, 战士
Someone engaged in or experienced in Warfare and fighting. Often clad in bits of armor and drawn with a melee Weapon, typically heavy Sword or large Axe. Can also be applied to a Character Class in various different RPG series.
While the definition is similar to "Soldier", the "warrior" tag should be applied to characters with a less "professional" appearance (i.e. no uniforms), and restricted to ancient or Medieval era combatants.
