Advantages and Limitations:

When wearing studded leather or lighter armor, a ranger can fight two-handed with no penalty to his attack rolls.

The ranger has the Tracking proficiency without spending proficiency points. The skill improves by +1 for every three levels the ranger has earned.

While wearing studded leather or lighter armor, the ranger can try to move silently and hide in shadows. The chance is modified by race and dexterity. When attempting these actions in non-natural surroundings, the chance of success is halved.

Before advancing to 2^nd level, every ranger must select a species enemy. Whenever the ranger encounters that enemy, he gains +4 to his attack rolls. This enmity can be concealed only with great difficulty, penalizing the ranger by 4 on all encounter reactions with creatures of that type. The ranger will actively seek out this enemy in combat in preference to all other foes unless someone else presents a much greater danger.

If a ranger carefully approaches or tends any natural animal, he can try to modify the animal’s reactions. When dealing with domestic or non-hostile animals, a ranger can approach the animal and befriend it automatically, and can easily discern the qualities of the creature. When dealing with a wild animal or an animal trained to attack, the animal must roll a saving throw vs. rods to resist the ranger’s overtures, with a –1 penalty on the die for every three experience levels the ranger has earned. If the creature fails the saving throw, its reaction can be shifted one category as the ranger chooses.

A ranger can learn priest spells, but only those of the plant or animal spheres, gains no bonus spells for a high Wisdom score.

At 10^th level, a ranger attracts 2d6 followers. These followers are often animals or stranger denizens of the land.

A ranger must always retain his good alignment. If the ranger intentionally commits an evil act, he automatically loses his ranger status, and is considered a fighter of the same level. If the ranger involuntarily commits an evil act, he cannot earn any more experience points until he has cleansed himself of that evil.

Rangers tend to be loners. They cannot have henchmen, hirelings, mercenaries, or even servants until they reach 8^th level. They cannot have more treasure than they can carry.
