Default Theme builds

Well, I was mucking about with warrior builds a few weeks ago, been meaning to start this thread.
Basic idea is, you take your warrior and you come up with a build that goes with a theme. Doesn't matter if there's a 'better' skill, if it doesn't fit the theme it doesn't go into the bar.

So, say, for a finesse style swords warrior, you take Riposte, Pure Strike, Bonetti's Defence, 100 blades. But avoid things like Dolyak Signet, Gash, and Crippling Slash because that doesn't fit the 'theme' (Though Hamstring does, as it's a bit or 'surgical' than Crippling Slash.

So, that's one example. What other them builds can you guys come up with? If you're not sure, here's two to work with.

Beserker
Dagger

Based on a Bleach character, you can actually pull a decent build.

[skill]Dragon Slash[/skill][skill]Sun and Moon Slash[/skill][skill]Riposte[/skill][skill]Rush[/skill][skill]"For Great Justice!"[/skill][skill]Conjure Frost[/skill][skill]Ice Prison[/skill][skill]Armor of Frost[/skill]

I would like to put in an attack speed thing for playability reasons, but most of the drawbacks seem to not fit the character.

Shinigami don't use shields, so I put in Riposte because of that. Instead of a shield maybe add an offhand thing that gives energy and armor.

Then again IRL Shinigami = a Japanese God of Death. Don't think a god would need a shield anyway.

Yeah, I know, isn't he great? I had troubles with his skills, though... There were only like 5-6 skills that really fit him, IWAY! and Bull's Strike were just kinda add-ins. I was also debating whether I should do Frenzy or Flail, but Flail won cause it gives him a 33% snare, which make him seem more dwarf-like (they're slow cause they got tiny little legs!). But man, I can just hear Gimli saying "I meant to do that! I did!"

EDIT: Turns out Gimli actually does say "I meant to do that!" in The Two Towers. I thought it rang a bell!

Maybe... "You Move Like a Dwarf!" dunno why, but Brawling Headbutt also sounds... fitting .

The Spartan

[card]"shields up!"[/card][card]"to the limit!"[/card][card]shield bash[/card][card]mighty throw[/card][card]sever artery[/card][card]gash[/card][card]final thrust[/card][card]thrill of victory[/card]

Seems to fit, although if I were to actually use it I would switch out the spear attack for an elite sword attack. It is just that none of them really fit with the build. Or I would add in the new shout "For Sparta!"

"For Sparta!" - restore 300 health, 40 energy and 10 adrinaline to all allies within earshot and all allies have a 75% chance to block attacks.
