The Squire , in real life can mean many things but let’s stick with the context of the character class in-game
-
In one definition it’s : a man of high social standing who owns and lives on an estate in a rural area, especially the chief landowner in such an area.
-
The other definition is : a young nobleman acting as an attendant to a knight before becoming a knight himself.
Now the first definition could tie itself with the Squire in-game as the guy who owns the Base camp you guys will be using, but I don’t think a “noble” would be doing menial work such as building the camp himself or repairing other people’s armor.
Which would probably fall under the definition of the 2nd, which is basically an attendant for a Knight, a glorified gopher. But again it contradicts this in-game. I mean we Squire is relatively high on the swordie tree, and I’m sure by the time we reach a “Squire” we’d already be at the level of a Knight, heck the Squire is in the same circle as the mounted class, which is pretty much a Cavalry Knight.
So I propose this , why not change the name of the class to Quartermaster,
by definition it is
“a military officer responsible for providing quarters, rations, clothing, and other supplies.”
Which fits the in-game Squire’s services. an “Officer” who’s responsible for quarters and rations (base camp, food) , Clothing and Other Supplies (Repair of weapons and armor also storage.)
For me a Quartermaster would be a better name for the so-called Squire.
What do you guys think?
