Dragon Quest IX
Gladiators can wield a sword, axe, and hammer weapon. However, their defense is mediocre and many of their best abilities will either lower their defense further or deal recoil damage; fortunately they can equip many of the heavier armor that warriors and paladins wear.
They have the unique skill set "Guts." Their Coup-de-Grace is "Tension Boost," which increases their tension to at least 50 (if not 100).
