Building the Arcanum Immortalis

We believe that creativity and versatility are key to crafting the perfect hero. That's why we've designed an innovative character class system that offers a diverse range of options to suit any playstyle. Featuring three core classes and four hybrid classes, Arcanum Immortalis encourages players to mix and match abilities to create truly unique characters.

Core Classes:

1. Expert: The Expert excels in skills and utility, specializing in roles such as spy, inventor, socialite, scholar, or entertainer. While they can learn combat or magic, their true strength lies in their knowledge and adaptability.
2. Mage: The Mage is a master of the arcane arts, harnessing power from various sources and specializing in a range of magical disciplines. Whether a religious healer or a reclusive witch, their expertise lies in the realm of the mystical.
3. Warrior: The Warrior is a paragon of physical prowess, skilled in a myriad of combat styles. From knights to berserkers to martial artists, these fighters excel in battle and physical contests.

Hybrid Classes:

4. Arcanist: As a blend of Expert and Mage, the Arcanist is a versatile utility character. They excel in crafting enchanted items, uncovering forbidden knowledge, and combining magic with practical skills.
5. Skirmisher: The Skirmisher is a hybrid of Expert and Warrior, offering a balance between utility and combat prowess. They excel in roles such as military scouts, assassins, or inquisitors, specializing in swift and disabling attacks.
6. Templar: Combining the strengths of Mage and Warrior, the Templar wields both weapons and magic. These champions might be holy warriors, elemental monks, kineticist swordsmen, or more.
7. Jack: The Jack is a true hybrid, encompassing aspects of Expert, Mage, and Warrior. Although they may not reach the pinnacle of any single domain, their versatility makes them invaluable. Examples include bards, magical survivalists, and supernatural monster hunters.

By using character focus and playstyle as our base for classes, we can use a modular approach for simple-but-diverse player options.
