Current plans are to support the following player classes:

Warriors	Pure Spellcasters	Hybrid Spellcasters
Fighter	Sorcerer	Hunter
Marksman	Cleric	Rogue
	Bard	Paladin

A character's class provides a class adjustment to each ability score. Class also provides half of the "base" for a character's HP and SP. These adjustments are displayed in the following table.

Class	STR	DEX	CON	INT	WIS	PER	HP Base	SP Base
Fighter	+4	+2	+2	-4	-2	+0	11	NA
Marksman	+0	+4	+1	+0	-2	-1	9	NA
Sorcerer	-4	+2	-2	+4	+0	+2	3	9
Cleric	-2	-4	+0	+2	+4	+2	5	9
Bard	+0	+2	-2	+2	-2	+4	6	7
Hunter	-1	+2	+2	+1	+1	-1	8	5
Rogue	+0	+4	-2	+2	-2	+2	7	6
Paladin	+2	-2	+0	-2	+2	+4	9	6

In addition, each class possesses special attributes and properties. Additionally, each class is granted a "progression" for determining their melee, missile, and evasion skill. The details of the progressions are detailed elsewhere.

Fighter	+1 Attack/round with all melee weapons Can Dual Wield	Superb	Excellent	Good

The experience needed to increase in level is determined by the combination of race and class. The race page details the percentage of the standard experience totals needed for a level. The experince totals are described on the level page. The starting equipment/inventory for each race/class combination is described elsewhere.
