Overview
Swordmen are honest and as stubborn as the strong waves of the ocean. With strong physical attacks, defense, and a sense of command, a Swordman can become a headstrong leader to others. Swordmen continuously train to gain more skill and strength.
After reading King Tristan 3rd's official notice recruiting adventurers, swordmen join with the hope of becoming ever stronger. Equipped with strong armor and weapons, the brave swordman joins the world of adventure.

1. In Izlude, enter the Swordman Guild on the west side of town (izlude 52, 138). Talk to the Swordman NPC in the center room behind the desk (izlude_in 74, 172), then the guard to the west. This guard will transfer you to a new room.
2. Talk to the guard named Test Hall Staff in the room to initiate the test. You have 10 minutes to complete the test.
3. First Map: A simple map. Just walk to the other side. If you fall you will be sent back to the beginning.
4. Second Map: This map involves two parallel bridges. Take your time and be careful not to fall off. You don't have to hold the mouse button down to walk.
5. Third Map: Similar to the first map except for the upper and lower levels. The lower level has a darker color than the upper level. Take your time and click carefully to get to the lower level. At the point where there is a gap in the top level, simply click on the lower level, and you will jump down. Then do the same to get back up.
6. Upon traversing the three maps and their checkpoints, talk to Mae in the last room to finish the test.
7. After exiting the test maps, speak to the large Swordman in the main room to become a Swordman.
