Classes
A class is chosen when a character is made and kept for ever: three trees of its own, a trait and its weapons. A prestige class is picked at the foot of a class tree: its door stands on the tree's deepest row, a hero takes one door a tree, and the door opens the prestige class's own tree.
Warrior
A fighter of the front line: heavy blows, a raised shield and a voice that turns a fight.
Blademaster · Bastion · Warcry
Ranger
A hunter of the wild places: the bow, quick feet and the craft of the trail.
Marksman · Skirmisher · Pathfinder
Paladin
A knight bound by an oath: the blade, the shield and a light that burns the dark.
Oathblade · Shieldvow · Radiance
Mage
A scholar of spells: fire, frost and the raw force behind them, learned from books.
Flame · Frost · Arcana
Sorcerer
Magic in the blood rather than the book: storms, embers and a power not quite tamed.
Storm · Emberblood · Chaos
Cleric
A voice of the old faiths: wounds closed, wrongs judged and the dawn called down.
Mercy · Judgement · Dawn
Druid
A keeper of the green: roots that bind, thorns that bite and the shapes of beasts.
Grove · Thorn · Beastform
Thief
A blade in the dark: a stab from behind, a fan of knives and a trick for every need.
Shadow · Blades · Trickery
Bard
A singer of the road: songs that lift allies, words that bewitch and a head full of lore.
Warsong · Beguiling · Wanderer's Lore
