Abilities, archetype and race are all important aspects of a character. Yet none are as defining as the character’s class. It adds more than just skills and abilities. It defines who the character is. Are you are swashbuckling rogue? A stalwart dedicated? A mysterious mage? Your character’s class answers that question.
The following classes are available for players to select:
Barbarian- Barbarians are renowned for their savage ferocity in battle. They generall scorn education and organized society, instead favoring their own tribal way of life.
Battlemage- Battlemages use the Greater Path of Destruction to annihalate their opponents. They are masters of dealing death, though their powers have less utility than other mages.
Bard- Bard’s harness the power of illusion to confuse the senses and charm their opponents.
Dedicated- Dedicated are warriors who gain divine powers by forming Covenants with the Stewards.
Druid- Druids are masters of nature magic and guardians of the wild.
Fighter- Fighters are the masters of personal combat. Soldiers, mercenaries and warriors.
Mage- Mages are generalist casters. They gain access to a 2nd Greater Path, but have none of the benefits specialists receive.
Ranger- Rangers are part tracker, part warrior part guide.
Rogue- Rogues are highly skilled adventurers who prefer remaining in the shadows.
Warmaster- Warmasters are masters of tactics and strategy, warriors and generals who rule the battlefield.

Character Advancement
As characters complete scene objectives or exhibit exceptional roleplaying they will be awarded experience points by the GM. Characters are typically awarded XP at the end of a session, though a GM may choose to award points between scenes if they deem it more appropriate.
After they receive enough points they gain a level, which grants them many benefits such as new abilities, more hit points and access to new tiers of spells. Characters place their new level in a class, much as they did when they selected their first level. This class need not be the same one they started with. If you select a new class you will want to read the Multiclass section below.
If you select the same class you gain whatever abilities are available at your new level, including hit points, skill ranks and feats. After you have selected your new class award yourself any ability modifiers if you have achieved 3rd or 6th level.
