|PLEASE SPEAK TO ME IF YOU WANTED TO START AT A HIGHER LEVEL! IF YOU DON'T I EXPECT YOUR CHARACTER TO BE A NEWBIE- below level 40.|

Here we will discuss how the game works.

Let us start with Races.


Humans:
Your basic race they are fairly generic they do not favor any jobs, but they do not suffer with any either.
In effect they can use any job as good as any other..... though obviously player skill and stats still make a difference.

Dwarf:
The Dwarven race are the same as humans they are just as strong ..... their strength is just condensed into a smaller package and due to this it is more potent .
A trait of dwarves is that they have no females...technically.
This is due to both male and female dwarves having beards and their habit of wearing chain-mail and armor.
Dwarves favor axe type weaponry and can wear Heavy armor no matter the class.

Drow:
More commonly known as the dark elves, typically they live deep underground have matriarchal societies and have been in a bitter underground war with the dwarven race.
The drow typically have navy blue or obsidian skin and platinum blonde hair.
The drow favor darker prestige classes that can use dark magic such as the black mage, necromancer or black guard though they also make effective archers.
They can see perfectly in the dark but have poorer eyesight during daylight

light elves:
Typically they have pale skin and golden blonde hair, they are rumoured to have facial/body hair and have a frail physique.
Light Elves favor any magic using class aligned class.

Tiefling:
Also known as demons these individuals have devilish features, sometimes have bat like wings, a tail and horns.
They have sturdy bodies that make them good warriors though due to their disguise ability they are perfect for stealth based classes

Beastmen:
Similar to humans these creatures are suited for any class, these are popular because unlike the other classes the character does not display the users true face.
They walk on two legs like the other races they are just covered in fur and have a beast like face.

Aasimar:
Also known as the angels these make the perfect choice for light magic classes such as the priest route or the paladin.
They have angelic wings.


Next! Let us discuss the class system.

The fighter.
The fighter is the stereotypical melee wielding nut job, they favor getting up close and personal when in combat, they tend to have trouble when facing a decent ranged opponent though.
They do not need to fight with weapons; they can have gauntlets/gloves that'll class as a melee weapon.

Mage
These are the typical spell wielding nut jobs, when they are not blowing up their allies (usually by accident in practice) they can often be found blowing up the enemy Typically they wield a staff but this is more of a magical focus, they tend to be frail in combat and must be protected... though a high level mage would probably be able to reign death on enemies rather easily.

Mages have different spell types here they are.
Black- this is the typical black magic its spells can drain enemy health, summon undead minions and use poisoning/slow acting spells on enemies.
Fire- this magic type uses fire type spells to hurt enemies, they can cause area of effect damage and has a lot of after effects e.g. choking enemies on smog.
Water- this uses water based spells to cause damage to enemies, its attacks are less damage dealing than a fire mage but they effect large amounts of enemies and when combined with an electric user they make a truly terrifying combination.
Electric- these attacks deal large damage but the majority of the spells they use can only be used on a single opponent.
Earth- these attacks use the earth to create hard projectiles that can be used against enemies, examples could be spiky spires rising from the ground or small planet orbiting objects landing on some unlucky smug heads head.
Wind- the smells themselves deal no damage, what these do is cause a lot of damage via terrain, e.g. a whirlwind wouldn't hurt, though the objects inside smashing into a character would hurt. The exception is that a few wind-based spells can be used to create a type of wind that is very fine and able to cut into an enemy.
Misc- these are the spells that have no se element; they can be used to strengthen an allies stats or to use more unique spells such as magic missiles.

Priests
These are the typical healers they can learn healing spells, holy spells that can be used against undead, demons and learn stat buffing/protective spells.

Thieves
These are well thieves; they are naturally speedy and tend to have good dexterity.
They have the ability to steal items from unlucky schmucks, they can temporarily become stealthed, their specialty in combat is to stab an enemy in the back and deal extra damage.
Typically they favor concealable weapons such as wrist-mounted crossbows, knives, daggers or poison.

Bards:
These are individuals who have beautiful voices and have the ability to cast spells and attack via playing music or singing.
Though another side of the bard is greater information gathering, people often tell bards things and it is not uncommon for a bard to "be in the know" about what is going on.

Archers:
These individuals are lethal at a distance and favor ranged weaponry such as bows or crossbows.
They are pretty frail in melee combat though so they need to keep back and fire from a distance.
