I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I'm going to put it forward.
The Cheif if based on Native americans. In Sanctuary, they would probably come from the Dry Steppes or similar areas. The only other name I can think of for this fellow is the Brave.
This is class is well versed with bows, spears, and all manner of throwing weapons. They also have some interesting support abillities. The skill trees are as follows:
Hunting: Ranged combat and traps
Ritual: Calls upon the the ancestors of the brave to give him nice buffs. That and totems and wards so that he can help friends and protect the group. EDIT: maybe some animal transformations. Examples being Eagle, wolf, bear and snake.
Bravery (I know, lame name. If you can come up with something better for it please do): Melee combat tree.
I'll post some skill examples when I think of them. A problem I see with this class is that we already have at least 2 classes from uncivilized regions. Otherwise, in some ways it handles like an Amazon, yet it has a fair number of differences in my opinion.
I think some people might think native americans dont belong just like samurai don't belong, etc. But I think they can make it work. I like how it can be a mix of druid/amazon.
Ehh. I think it would be too close to the Witchdoctor in some ways. Being all Tribal and Spiritual n'stuff. Not to mention we already have two spell casters. WD - Light Spellcaster + Summoning, Wizard - Pure Magic.
But I like the idea of bringing a Druid-type back into Diablo, and having someone who can Transform into different things. The Bear/Wolf/Snake/Eagle thing would be pretty cool if Blizzard did it well. (Which I know they would)
Pretty good idea over all. Just. A bit too much like the WD. :[
Oh oh! and if you reach max level you become MASTER CHIEF!!!!

That's what caused my doubts with it. I still like the animal ideas. Bear would be heavy melee brawling, wolf would be if you wanted something faster, snake would be to poison enemies, and eagle would be for scouting. I dunno. I agree that it is pretty similar to the witch doctor, and honestly, between the Barb and the WD, I'm not sure if there's room for another person who was raised in the wilds. Maybe in an expansion.
