<h1>Class Composition and Benefits</h1>
<p>Every Class provides the following information:</p>
<h1>Attribute Dice Mechanics</h1>
<p>Each of a Player Character’s main Attributes (Dexterity, Insight, Might, and Willpower) is represented by a die size, from a minimum of d6 to a maximum of d12.</p>
<p>Bigger die sizes indicate a more trained Attribute or a stronger natural talent.</p>
<h2>Attributes Defined</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>A short description of the Class</strong>, covering its general role and premise.</li>
<li><strong>A list of questions</strong> that will help you define the goals, past experiences, and behavior of your character. You don’t have to answer all of them straight away — in fact, it's much better to let these elements emerge during play, through your character’s actions and choices. You also can decide to ignore some of these questions if your character concept isn't strongly tied to that particular Class.</li>
<li><strong>A list of free benefits</strong> that your character will gain simply by acquiring the Class, such as the ability to equip martial equipment or a slight increase to Hit Points, Mind Points or Inventory Points. If two or more of your Classes give you the same free benefits, they will stack!</li>
<li><strong>A set of five Class Skills</strong> that are unique to the Class in question. Whenever you invest a level in a Class, you acquire one of its Skills; any Skills marked with <span style="font-family:monospace;">(çç)</span> can be acquired multiple times, usually making them stronger or more flexible. The number following the <span style="font-family:monospace;">(çç)</span> symbol tells you the maximum number of times that Skill can be acquired — for instance, a <span style="font-family:monospace;">(çç5)</span> Skill can be taken up to five times.</li>
<li><strong>Dexterity</strong> measures precision, coordination, finesse and reflexes.</li>
<li><strong>Insight</strong> represents observation, understanding and reasoning.</li>
<li><strong>Might</strong> is a measure of strength, resilience and physical fortitude.</li>
<li><strong>Willpower</strong> represents determination, charisma and the ability to influence others.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Key Definitions:</strong></p>
<h2>Character Profile Selection</h2>
<p>Choose one of the following profiles for your hero, then distribute the corresponding die sizes among their four Attributes (on your character sheet, these should be written in the “base size” column).</p>
<ul>
<li>When the text of a Skill mentions <strong>&lt;span class="monospace"&gt;【SL】&lt;/span&gt;</strong>, that is the Skill Level, which is to say how many times you have acquired that Skill.</li>
<li><strong>Jack of All Trades:</strong> d8, d8, d8, d8</li>
<li><strong>Average:</strong> d10, d8, d8, d6</li>
<li><strong>Specialized:</strong> d10, d10, d6, d6</li>
</ul>
<p>When choosing Classes, keep in mind these simply represent your current abilities — they will not impact your character's role in the narrative unless you want them to, and you may steer your character in entirely different directions later on.</p>
<p><strong>Example Application:</strong></p>
<p>Camilla is very insightful (Insight d10), fairly agile and determined (Dexterity d8 and Willpower d8), but not particularly imposing (Might d6).</p>
<p><em>When allocating Attribute dice, you should take into account your choices of Classes and Skills!</em></p>
<p>For instance, a knight might have invested levels in Elementalist to learn a few combat spells, without necessarily being a student of elemental magic.</p>
<p>If you are short on time or ideas, feel free to take a look at the <em>Classic Characters</em> starting on page 172: these level 5 archetypes will prove solid in play.</p>
<p>Robert is intrigued by the Loremaster and Orator Classes but also realizes Camilla trained with some of the best fighters in the land, which means Weaponmaster would be another fitting choice.</p>
<p>In the end, he decides to invest two levels in <strong>Orator</strong> (acquiring Encourage and Unexpected Ally), then three levels in <strong>Weaponmaster</strong> (acquiring Bone Crusher twice and then the powerful Counterattack).</p>
