📋 About This Mod
This mod is no longer being actively maintained. It was last known to work on Patch 6.
The Ghost of Faerun
A Fighter Subclass
This subclass is a mashup of two well known game protagonists. While mostly having the abilities of a certain Samurai it also has some abilities from a Ghostwalker you may also be familiar with.
Featuring the Brand ability, the Ghost of Faerun can dominate an enemy and compel it to fight for them for a short time. The Ghost of Faerun leans heavily on combat reactions. As you level up you will get more reaction points to fuel your reactions which in turn fuels your Resolve resource. Resolve is used to power some of your more powerful abilities and defensive skills.
This subclass can use any weapon or armor a Fighter can use. I highly recommend that you stick to just a Katana and a Long Bow for maximum flavor. You will also want to put some points into Wisdom which will help keep your Brand from being resisted.
Rather than doing the whole weapon for life upgrading I've been doing on my past few mods I have decided to just make the upgrades summonable at intervals as you level up. You can get a level appropriate Katana and Longbow at levels 3,6,9,12. If you'd prefer to use other weapons that's your choice. There are also several Asian style weapon mods here on Nexus you could use.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Niche but dedicated following (58 endorsements) — players who try it seem to stick with it.
- Recent update (May 2024) means it's likely compatible with current game patches.
- The samurai flavor plus command ability gives a fresh spin on the Fighter class.
⚠️ Cons
- Low endorsement count (58) compared to popular mods — might be rough around the edges.
- Only one subclass — if you're not into samurai themes, this won't add much variety.
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who want a martial class with a supernatural twist, especially fans of samurai archetypes. If you're a Fighter main looking for new tactical options, this could be your jam. Skip if you prefer ranged or spellcasting classes.
💡 Beginner Tips

- Check the mod's page for any required mod manager setup, but the description suggests a simple drop-in.
