I don't necessarily think that you absolutely *need* to DA either of
these guys, but then I haven't taken a real good look at what they can
do.  Let's see...

>The raw rollups are

ST  13 + 0 = 13
CN   3 + 0 =  3
SZ  15 + 0 = 15
WT  10 + 5 = 15
WL  15 + 6 = 21
SP   4 + 0 =  4
DF  10 + 3 = 13

I think that this is probably about the best thing that you can make out
of this roll-up,and as he stands he's well suited to the bashing, lunging,
plunging, parry-strike, wall of steel, and total parry styles.  Person-
ally, I'd go with an offensive style, either bashing or lunging, with
bashing being my choice.

However, recently some people have posted experiments they're doing with
large finesse warriors (such as Wastes) and this guy looks like a perfect
example of what could a really good big finesse guy.

Trumpian Dream Sequence: switch CN and SZ, and you've got a 13-15-3-15-21-4-13
Waste.  Or, just switch ST and WT, and you've got a 11-3-15-17-21-4-13
warrior.  Wow!

>and

ST   8 + 3 = 11
CN   9 + 0 =  9
SZ  17 + 0 = 17
WT   8 + 5 = 13
WL  13 + 4 = 17
SP   6 + 0 =  6
DF   9 + 2 = 11

Well, he could be a lunger, slasher (maybe), plunger, piker, wall of steel,
or total parry.  Once again, because his SZ is probably going to make him
a better offensive warrior, I'd go lunger to take advantage of the extra
init, attack, and damage that his SZ 17 is going to give him, while miti-
gating somewhat his poor offense by getting the lunger's dodge and riposte
bonus.

Not a bad character.  If he learns well, I might keep him.  Try him out
for about 5 fights, and see what happens.

>Thanks.

Ain't no thang.
