The Knight. Lots of health, lots of armor, lots of melee hurt. 200 health? (Perhaps something that allows him to survive a direct hit from a Jitterskull- Barely.) The slowest moving human class.
Weapon #1: A sword and shield. A medium-light attack, with an alternate attack (Shield block) that can mostly block a Sjas' scream, block 1/2 of a Jitterskull direct bite, and deflect a bloodball, at a medium health cost to the knight (which can still kill friendlies or enemies if it hits them) Primary attack is a fast swing of a sword, making this a weapon you can use to fight toe-to-toe with enemies like Choke.
Weapon #2: The claymore. A powerful attack, the Primary swing being a slow one, capable of instantly killing a Sjas (If you can hit him with it). It has extra reach than that of your sword and board, but leaves you vulnerable to ranged and fast attackers. The Secondary attack can either be an Enrage that doubles movement speed and attack speed for a short amount of time, or a charge similar to the Jitterskulls (Twice the range, slightly slower movement than the Jitterskull?), but instead of an instant kill, it stuns/damages enemies the Knight speeds by for only a moment, and can stun enemies the Knight directly hits for two seconds. Can also be used to escape close encounters.
Weapon #3: The Crossbow. Excellent for dealing with enemies like the Creeper, the Crossbow is a powerful weapon, but has an extremely slow reload (4 seconds? Maybe 5 or 6?). It if hits a creeper, the creeper is more than likely going to die. But with the slow reload speed, it may not be effective to use on enemies like Sjas, or the various Skull family. It could be used right before a Claymore charge into an enemy however, to provide damage before you even begin the fight. The Alternate attack could either be thrown crossbow bolts that deal light damage, or a kick that knocks the enemy back with a medium-light damage.
Alternatively, we could have the Paladin. Same stats as the Knight, different skills. I'll think something up for that one next.
EDIT: Ehhh I missed the template. I'll do that here.
What is it's name: The Knight
What is it's story: Your run of the mill FIGHT FOR HONOR (or wealth) Knight.
What does it look like: Your "Neutral" sort of Knight. Not a white knight, not a black knight.
How does it play: Like a tank with a bunch of sharp objects swinging around it. You move slower than most, but you're also deadly up close and personal. Your shield is an amazing weapon for protecting yourself from ranged attackers, but you're still highly vulnerable if you aren't up in their faces.
What are it's weapons: See above.
Why does it belong on GVH: We have the Hunter, the badass with a bow. Where's the badass with the swords?
