Thinking about classes..

We've been talking about how we want actual gameplay to work and we've decided to want really heavy class-based role play elements. So far there are 21 classes. You will start with one of the 3 basic classes, Warrior, Mage, or Bowman. At certain levels, along with certain guild-related quests you class-up. The first class up you choose a specific focus. Then at the next level milestone you level that focus up again. Right now once you choose your 'path' your stuck on it for the levels, there's no more branching, though we might chagne that.Here's a few random classes: Hunters - Fast, agile bowmen with an eye to kill. Spellblades - Powerful wizards with the strength to cut down even the biggest enemies. Brutes - Heavy warriors who favor large hammers over anything. Shadowbanes - A dark class who can torment an enemy using their knowledge of shadows. These are all typical RPG classes, but I have a few classes I've constructed myself. More on this later :)
