Rondelero

Rondelero is a lightly-armoured Taldan fighting style employing a falcata and a buckler.¹² The buckler is used to deflect blows and distract the opponent, while the falcata takes advantage of created openings to strike with precision.³ The fighting style originated in the city of Karakuru, as a result of the mixing of peasant dance and noble weapons.³ The fighting style is taught throughout Taldor, but most of the well-known masters of the style have all come from the Rondelero School in Karakuru.³
