Class Ideas: For Base Class

Okay, I know that I said the Illusionist is coming up (with Enchanter), but I decided that since that is suppose to be for level 9, I might as well mention a couple of base classes that you can choose and briefly go over the basic about them.



First we have the normal classes:

Cleric

Fighter

Magic User

Thief

Dwarf

Elf

Halfing

Mystic



Those are the ones given in the Rules Cyclopedia



Here are a few others given to me in the offical rule sets I own
[From Dawn of the Emperors Gazetteer~Thyatis and Alphatia]

Forester (A human with elf like abilities. Useful in suprising an enemy)

The Rake (The Non-Thief Thief. Someone who has thief abilities but does not steal)

Alphatian Magic User (access to different spells and such)

[From The Principalities of Glantri]
Glantrian Mage (not only you would have access to schools in Glantri, but also you get to choose one of the seven secret crafts of Glantri. They are Alchemist-Dracologists-Elementalists-Illusionists-Necromancers-Cryptomancers-Witches. Note that these classes are completely different from other classes that share the same name)
[From Dwarves of Rockhome]
Dwarven Cleric
[From The Golden Khan of Ethengar]
Horse Warriors (mounted fighters with range ability)
Brataks (Thieves that do not know of the vice of stealing but still steal. Not the same as a Rake)
Hakomons (Magic Users who uses stones instead of paper to store their spells)
(Clerics)
Shamans (A speaker with the Spirits. Not the same as other Shamans)
[From the Emirates of Ylaram]
Dervishes (Desert Druids)
[From Tales of the Wee Folk]
NOTE: If you wish to play a class from the Creature Crucible, we must negotiate as some classes my be too strong, hindering game player, or a bit...weird (for example, one creature I won't allow will be the Treant. I mean seriously, it is hard to roleplay a Treant into a civilized community. "Hello, I am a talking tree!" GET AWAY! RUN BEFORE IT THROWS APPLES AT US!")
Centaurs (half horse, half men)
Dryads (tree spirits)
Fauns (half men, half goat...satyrs...might not be able to play due to their devilish habits)
Hsiao (a spell casting owl)
Treant (A walking tree...most likely not playable)
Wood Imp (Fairies that no longer cast spells but fight)
Brownie (Not the bloody dessert. The creature. Of fairy descent)
Leprechaun (Not a St. Patrick Day Special...needless to say has magical properties)
Pixies & Sprites (the flying fairies you don't see everywhere you go...look harder you no-believer and clap some more)
Pooka (How are you Mr. Wilson?)
Sidhe (I hate Fays)
Woodrake (Shapeshifting Fays. Play a Fay and I might kill you out of my hate of the Fay)
[From Top Ballista]
Faenare (Half Elf, half bird)
Gnomes (Sorry, no David the Gnome here)
Gremlins (Chaos brings. Most likely not going to be playable because of it being a living Murphy Law)
Harpies (asexual human bird-like siren thingies)
Nagpa (Ugly spell dudes)
Pegataurs (Your Cenataur is in my Pegasus~Your Pegasus is in my Cenataur *sip* Wow! It tastes good!)
Sphinxes (pretty powerful creature, still debating if this should be playable or not)
Tabi (Flying Monkeys....I am not kidding here)
[From Night Howlers]
The Weres. There is Werewolf, Werebats, Werebears (not like Ewon's spell), Wereboars, Werefoxes, Wereseals, Weresharks, Weretigers, and Wererats. The virus limited itself to these types. I think these are pretty self explainitory. Except for the other one called Devil Swine. I have no idea what this is and I am too lazy to look it up right now.

[Dragon Magazine]
The Dragon Magazine adds character classes every now and then. The only one I found thus far is a Bard which is a jack-of-trade.

Keep in mind that these are all classes. Races can be choosen too. You can be a Thyatian from the Pearl Islands. You can be a Glantrian from New Averoge. We can discuss all this once you get an idea on who you want to be.

A few of my own creations:
Gladiator (a strong fighter limited in it's studies)
Scout (in general, a thief who is capable of scouting)
Wanderer (has scout-like abilities, but is more sociable)
Fisher (believe it or not, there are possiblities)
Esper (you will be considered a weak fighter until you psionic ability develops)
Mimic (oh look, a mime)
Survivalist (not really a fighter, but more like someone who knows how to live off the fat of the land. Later levels can increase what it means to be a Survivor)
Animal Trainer (Can train an animal to fight on your side)
The list goes on and on. I think I gave you enough ideas. Keep on thinking.
