A Righteous Text Master takes a balanced approach to the martial and the scholarly arts. He or she is the most likely to settle down and found a school, or become an important tutor, rather than go wandering as a duelist might. Masters are often the pillars of community, and take very seriously the Righteous Text precepts of sacrifice and the community good.

• Duelist
• Philosopher. You push the boundaries of the martial arts. Your entire life is about cultivation, achieving a purity of purpose and thought that will lead to a breakthrough in sword technique. If successful you'll be known as a Sword Saint or a God of Blades.
• Strategist.

A Righteous Text Duelist is dedicated to swordplay over education. The duelist is always searching for training manuals, masters, or new sparring partners to enhance his or her knowledge of the blade. Some teachings still guide the duelist, especially the value of revenge and the importance of patriotically protecting the nation. But the most important thing to a duelist is the perfection of the martial arts, everything else is secondary. At the zenith of his or her career, a duelist may be difficult to tell from a Saint, and may even be called a Sword Saint.
