Comrades are non-levelled combatants that have received a small amount of combat training, so that they are more threatening than commoners. They do not need to make a morale check in order to enter battle. They possess standard morale.
As Hirelings
Nearly all will possess an amateur or authority-status in some kind of sage ability, most commonly farming, foraging, sailing, fishing, woodcutting, herding and the like. Hirelings that are artisans or heavy labourers are nearly always comrades.
As Combatants
Comrades possess hit points according to their body mass, +1. Their negative hit points are much reduced from that of levelled persons, such that they will die if damage reduces them to below -3 hit points.
In combat, they're serviceable in large numbers. They have a THAC0 of 21. They possess one weapon proficiency in club, though they can use a spear with a penalty of -1 to hit — though in some cultures and with some races the spear may be replaced with a javelin or a machete.
