x-CLASSES

x-BASE CLASSES
Adventurers usually fall into different classes or categories depending on their powers. There are several different categories defines by the Adventurer's Rest, those being the Scouts, Mages, Priests, Warriors and Beastmen. These classes are the very core of what any adventurer can be defined as and are very general. Usually only beginner adventurers are defined as a Core Class.

No matter what the class, an adventurer of any class may choose to use any weapon they desire. A warrior may choose to use a sword or maybe just his own fists. A sorcerer may choose to use a tome or maybe a sword. It's up to them.

x-SUBCLASSES
At Level 1, adventurers have the choice to focus their abilities into the general subclasses like how priests can be enchanters or clerics. These are more specific than the core classes when it comes to abilities. Usually, only adventurers who have been exploring and hunting for a little while are in the subclasses. It is very difficult to be able to learn both paths of a core class until you are a Level 3, where you can have Advanced Classes.

x-ADVANCED CLASSES
Adventurers Level 3 or higher are able to further refine their abilities to form their own classes. For example, an adventurer that used to be a cleric reaches Level 3 and decides to focus is abilities on heals. He becomes a master in healing and decides to name his class a Devote (or Healer or whatever, Level 3s are allowed to name their own classes). Another Level 3 cleric decides that he doesn't like being completely vulnerable and decides to learn to summon servants to both attack and protect him, dubbing his class a Mystic. Likewise, a Sorcerer who wishes to learn both black magic and summon beasts can also dub himself a Mystic. Whatever it may be, Level 3 is where adventurers can truly choose their own path and decide where they specialize. You must notify a group before finalizing your Level 3 Class.

x-ABOUT SKILLS & ABILITIES
An adventurer has quite a bit of freedom when it comes to abilities, for creativeness! You can decide how you fight on your own, but try to stay along the lines of your class until you get to Level 3, where you'll have almost complete freedom. Any method of attack is fine, but the actual abilities themselves defines their class. If an adventurer is unhappy with their class, they have the choice to change their class for a fee. When this happens, an adventurer's stats can change to accommodate their abilities.

x-THE ROGUES

" Sheer strength is useless if you aren't able to use it. A brain never becomes useless. "

BASE CLASS
► The Rogues are the most dexterous of all the classes. Using clever tricks while still being a threat, scouts are able to worm their way out of many sticky situations or even turn the tide. They are the masters of planning and can be considered the quickest when it comes to raw, natural speed. Rogues can be Archers and Assassins.
SUB CLASSES
► The Archers are the most perceptive of all adventurers and are known to be the most accurate of all, being able to aim shoot enemies was many miles away. Though they may be slightly less able when at closer ranges, they still have a lot of utility they can rely on.
► The Assassins more skilled in stealthily hiding and waiting for the perfect chance to strike, assassins are those of the most deceptive skills. Assassins are likely the most in tune with their surrounding thanks to their ability to adapt to and hide in them so well. Assassins are appreciated for their ability to quickly deal damage and an even more advanced ability to worm out of pinches.

Some possibilities for Advanced Class Rogues include:
Gunner, precise aiming alongside quick damage and rapid fire.
Breeder, accompanied by tamed and trained beasts alongside traps and regular weapons.
Trapper, advanced traps with a variety of uses and abilities.
And anything your imagination brings!

x-THE MAGES

" Magic cannot be real, for it defies natural occurrences, but it defies illusion as well-- by existing. "

BASE CLASS
► The Mages are the masters of magic and witchery. Their abilities appear to defy all logic and meaning. They can take in the energy of their surroundings to conjure elements used to wither away at a target's HP. They're one of the main damage dealers, but depending on how they want to progress, they can utilize the energy they've gathered to heal, summon, create or enhance themselves. They can be Sorcerers and Summoners.
SUB CLASSES
► The Sorcerers are truly the ones in touch with the mystical magical energy that's hidden in the every day life of the world. They further their connection with magical energy and can create more complex and powerful spells.
► The Summoner are strong as they control a fleet of powerful summoned demons and maybe tame some of the powerful monsters that stand guard inside the Dungeon. Though not having as powerful spells as a Sorcerers, Summoners are still valuable thanks to their versatile nature that results from the powers of their various summons.

Some possibilities for Advanced Class Mages include:
Spellblader, enchanted magical weapons and powerful spells.
Witch, special curses for every occasion, buff charms and spells.
Spiritmaster, able to harness the power of spirits for buffs and offensive power.
And anything your imagination brings!

x-THE PRIESTS

" Whether holding someone else' life in your hands is an responsibility or a burden is defined by mere opinions. "

BASE CLASS
► The Priests, widely known as the healers of all the adventurers. Many adventurers who lack in the rejuvenating power the Priests have often recruit a Priest to accompany them. Although most Priests are weaker in terms of brute force, they are as valuable as anyone else-- your life is in their hands. The Priest can advance into 2 sub classes, those being the Cleric and the Enchanter.
SUB CLASSES
► The Cleric further improves his abilities in healing, sometimes being able to resurrect those who have recently died, including themselves (with limitation, of course.) For Raid Bosses, the Cleric is usually regarded as the adventurer that keeps everyone alive.
► The Enchanter improves their abilities to... well, improve other's abilities! They can improve a party member's defense or maybe enable them to be faster or stronger. They sacrifice some of their healing ability, but what is there to heal if a team member is protected from damage? (Enchanters should have abilities similar to giving shields, or adding temporary stat points to a character(s) stat scores. However, you may add any special spin on the ability, like sacrifice health to give shields or stats. This is to keep our battle system simple.)

Some possibilities for Advanced Class Priests include:
Mystic, black magic, summons monsters & heals
Witch Doctor, cure status effects & places status effects on others
Devote, strong heals & able to complete rejuvenate people.
And anything your imagination brings!

x-THE WARRIORS

" Some may argue that there's beauty in simplicity. "

BASE CLASS
► The Warriors are the brute force, high defense adventurers of the land. Whether it be protecting their fellow adventurers or being one of the highest damage dealers, they tend to be able to be able to withstand many hits while having great weapon skill. Their two subclasses are Paladin and Knight.
SUB CLASSES
► The Paladin are the protectors, or maybe meat-shields, of the adventurers. They are skilled at capturing an enemy's attention or being too much of a threat to be ignored, keeping the heat off their adventuring buddies.
► The Knight is a class unrivaled in pure combat with no distraction of any other skills. Though basic, they're practically the best fighters and only needs a sword in their hand to be able to raze down hordes of enemies.

Some possibilities for Advanced Class Warriors include:
Beserker, brute force and abilities that push them beyond any normal limitations
Promise Knight, a knight that devotes themselves to their master and becomes stronger with their master
Devote, strong heals & able to complete rejuvenate people.
And anything your imagination brings!

x-THE BEASTMEN

" It's difficult to tell which can be more savage: a dungeon monster or a Beastman. "

BASE CLASS
► The Beastmen are the ruthless and savage adventurers of the world. Utilizing the abilities given to them by Mother Nature, they can easily shape themselves into any creature you can find anywhere. (No custom species; only non-fiction/historical/mythological with very few limitations are allowed for Beastmen for consistency. For new members, creatures should not be too big-- anything more than 25 feet tall is not allowed. You may downsize creatures ex. downsize a dragon to be under 25 feet. They may grow bigger with higher levels.) They are a special case when it comes to adventurers. According to textbooks, a Beastman is someone who turns into a non human creature to fight, utilizing that creature's natural abilities. However, not all beastman have to fully turn into their creature-- some beastman can transform only part of their body if they so choose. This differs from regular animal people who simply have animal appearances. An animal person may have any class, while beastmen are a separate class.

x-THE SUPPORT

" By definition, an adventurer is anyone that travels into the dungeon. "

BASE CLASS
► The Support, like the Beastmen, are a special type of adventurer. They have many specialties when it comes to combat or magical abilities. Their abilities tend to be on the more supportive side, similar to the priests. (Or, they can help by simply assist by being able to locate enemies or set up a temporary safe zone.) They can carry their own weapons, attack and be useful in combat-- some could even be better than you at killing that thing you really hate!

Supporters mostly have skills centered around supporting the team. At times, they can save your life if you ever decide to go into a dungeon alone. Supports are also known to be exponential crafters with much of the top-level gear being made by them. Without a support, it's very difficult to carry around treasures and make a profit, so despite their combat inability, they are still very useful. After all, how are you going to dodge if you're carrying a 5 ton backpack? How are you doing to defend yourself without sturdy armor?
