H2G2SRPG - Classes
Created | Updated Apr 12, 2004
The next aspect of your character is to choose his class. A class defines what your character is like, how he fights, their alignment towards good or evil, and so on. To choose a class, you must first find a base class that suits you. Base classes are listed by the large bold type. After finding the right base class, choose one subclass under that category. Remember, to use any class or sub-class, you must first meet its requirements.
