Description: An anti-hero is simply a hero who uses unethical methods to accomplish his heroic tasks. An anti-hero may be an Assassin or a lone wolf Vigilante.

An anti-hero will do things that regular heros will not. An anti-hero may use an innocent person as bait or kill the corrupt government official instead of bringing him to justice. Anti-Heros will use the simplest and fastest solution rather than the ethical solution when they fight evil.

Combat Technique: Any.

Preferred Skills: Any combat skills. "Dirty" combat skills and stealth skills are perectly acceptable.

Benefit: Some individuals may empathize with the Anti-Hero because he is fighting evil, even if he doesn't do it ethically.

Disadvantage: Anti-Heros may find themselves at odds with heroes when their unethical behavior goes to far. Some anti-heros become less and less heroic until they eventually become villians.
