I don't think you can really just train forever and keep growing continually stronger, you get diminishing returns after a while, as there is an upper limit to any training regimen. It's just maintenance from there. You would have to start doing a more effective regimen to grow beyond it.

So what you're saying is that being an Eysire automatically makes you stronger than anyone else, and that nobody can train enough to surpass them if they are also training.

Eh, it might not sit very well with the logical part of my brain, but regardless, Ssarak has a of strength training and fights with a large, heavy weapon whose weight is its primary damaging aspect. Even if all races were on a completely level playing field in terms of strength, I think the force he could dish out in a swing would be greater than the majority of foes, so I can still use him as intended. I'm fine with it.

Well, it's the same with Alaira, but she's had way more time to do it. she's got a decade of an advantage.

Alaira is a mutant?

A mutant in a more... normal sense. Not like a radiation mutant or something, but more like an aberration in the common genetic code. She developed with a much bulkier frame than others of her kind, which is rare.

Freeshooter...the way you brag about her, it sounds like she could take on a Mountain troll and kick everyone ass just to be the damn King of the mountain.

Physically she's extremely powerful, but we're not just on a physical level! She's still not strong enough to beat up a dragon, strong mages can easily beat her, the very weakest of psychomancers can easily beat her, and she isn't all that smart.

Women do tend to be more dextrous than men. She also fights with a spear, right? That is a much faster weapon than a two handed maul, warhammer, or something of the like, not to mention its reach. Plus, Fallen did say she could have more strength than a lot of men of her race, given her intense training.

She fights with any weapon. those ones you mentioned? also favorites of hers. The only weapons she can't really use are the weird/exotic ones.

She's built like a tank though, She's a mutant...

You have five minutes to stop shouting... or you can hit the RP door.

But her strength is the one advantage that makes up for her crippling weaknesses! It's the only place she has that's ahead of anyone. She's pretty bad at magic, even among the novices, can't read, schizophrenic, get's into situations she can't manage, and is an emotional time bomb. Strength is her big advantage...

Fallenreaper said One, Esyires don't have extreme strength.

There. I omitted the rest for irrelevance toward the topic at hand.
And I think having more strength than the crazy Berserker with almost thirty years of experience certainly qualifies.

Personally, I just assumed so when I read it, given the description of their size. In the real world, size also generally equates to strength. There are some exceptions, but that is usually because of a fundamental difference in how their bodies work, making them noncomparable.

But I was told, specifically, that they didn't have that advantage.

Yeah, the Eysire Bio doesn't say a damn thing about more strength!
