Qnd all those crazy fighting techniques work. Chains with spikes, throwing knives, oversized Conan swords, hand cast fireballs, they exist and are all effective fighting methods!
How would you, brave Otherworld warrior or wizard arm yourself for whatever epic quest that has the fate of the world in its balance you get invariably drawn into? You will start out on horseback, proceed on foot, fight things smaller, larger, wiser, dumber, uglier, and perhaps prettier than you.
CHOOSE YOUR DESTINY, for FLAWLESS VICTORY
I would trounce about with a sharp, stiff, sidesword with an elongated grip for when semprini gets real and I need two hands on my sword, a nice fighting hatchet for wielding offhand to parry, huck at enemies, and perform surprise chest cavity excavations. A nice short, stout, slashy-stabby spear will be in hand at all times, and a small bow over my back. I'll have a plethora of knives all about my person and equipment, ready for hurling, stabbing, and slashing. A cavalier great coat, charming good looks, and some bits of steel reinforced leather armor completes the package.

I would bring:   Oh yeah - when they start laughing at my dog - I will take their heads. :-) |

A katana. Because if I understand the rules here correctly, it would be the THE BEST SWORD simply because it's a katana, and automatically make me a cool badass simply by using it.

Woah now, that falls on my turf. :lol:
I'm going in with a hawk/bowie combo, and some sort of greatsword. A duster and pauldrons for flavor. Mostly because I can.

It's a wand from Harry Potter. Since those laws of magic apply to this fantasy world....well, good luck to my enemies. :lol:

I wouldn't carry any weapon, also I would never talk. Those two things combined would make me the most dangerous person ever. Oh, and I would do something odd like only drink water. So those three things.

Right there with ya. I'd bring a sword along as well (type XVI or XVIII variant), but if magic applies in this world this bit of wood is going to be way more helpful in most situations than a blade.  |

Downside of wands is, what if you turn out to be a Muggle?  OP says 'wizard or warrior', so... Seriously though, I'd rather be a warrior. The wizard always loses... just read any decent Conan story and see Oh, weapons? Vorpal sword. Snicker-snack! |

It seemed implied that we could choose.
Although if we're really bringing out the guns, I'd rather be a War Wizard from the Sword of Truth series. Harry Potter-style would tickle my nerd-gland a bit more, though.

If it's fine for people like Saito to run around shooting lightning out of their butts, I think it's fine for me to assume I'm not a muggle. :roll: And who says wizard and warrior have to be mutually exclusive? I'll slice a bugger up oldschool, but if somebody comes at me with fireballs and sorcery and what have you I'd like to be able to put 'em down and carry on my swashbuckling way. It's a fantasy world. When a grey-bearded Istari says "swords are no more use here" deep beneath the heart of a mountain I'd like to not be completely helpless. |

Conans sword, the spear from dragonslayer, the Orin from the never ending story, the throwing star from Krull, Shalindrea's wond from Willow, the axe from Frank Frazetta's fire and ice, and dog poop on a stick.
