How the Class Plays
Draw Steel Fury is the class for direct heroic action. A rage-forward, brawny Fury wants to close distance, hit hard, move physical obstacles, and survive being the most obvious threat on the battlefield.
Fury is beginner friendly when the first build emphasizes reliable movement, a clear melee target, and enough durability to stay engaged. Most early mistakes happen before the power roll, so review movement, jump, prone, surges, and actions together.
Quick Build
Start with a simple bruiser frame. Pick options that improve melee reach, stamina pressure, and reliable movement. A Fury player should not need five turns to feel useful. The class should create pressure as soon as the fight starts.
| Build Need | Good Question | Table Result |
|---|---|---|
| Melee identity | Can I reach the target and stay relevant? | Reliable pressure |
| Aggression | Does this support rage-style pressure? | Decisive turns |
| Physical presence | Does this support a brawny table role? | Terrain interaction |
| Recovery plan | Can I survive after the charge? | Frontline durability |
First Session Plan
On turn one, decide whether movement or target choice matters more. If reaching the wrong enemy leaves the party exposed, slow down and take the better square. If one dangerous target must be removed, commit and make the table feel it.
Fury is strongest when the player uses short decision loops. Where do I stand? Who is the target? Do I spend a surge now or save it for the finishing turn? That is enough for the first session.
Surge And Resource Notes
Spend surges when they change the encounter clock. A Fury surge should usually finish a target, force a panic response, or protect a party member by ending the threat faster. Spending every surge immediately can look exciting but may lower real impact.
Hero tokens are worth discussing when the Fury is the only stable frontline. If the party loses the Fury, ranged and support heroes may lose their best positioning shield.
