Classes
Classes¶
Classes are optional roles that can be applied to a character to layer on additional statistics, traits, and visual appearance. A class might represent a job like Knight or Mage, a rank or tier of progression, a transformation, or any other reusable bundle of stats and traits that should be shared across multiple characters.
A class can override a character's map sprite, battler, and portrait while it is active, allowing the same character to look different depending on its current role. Classes can be granted, removed, or swapped at runtime through scripting, and a character can hold more than one class at a time.
Properties¶
The class's own fields. Every one of them is listed under Properties further down this page.
Statistics¶
The class's value for each statistic at every rank — see Statistics Table Editor.
Traits¶
Skills, resistances and passive effects the class grants — see Trait Table Editor.
Tags¶
Free-form labels other systems can match against — see Tag Editor.
Note: Classes are entirely optional — a character configured directly through its own statistics and traits is fully valid. Reach for classes when the same role needs to be reused across characters, when a character should be able to switch roles during the game, or when progression should be tracked separately from the character itself.
Note: The Statistics, Traits, and Tags tabs are shared editors, used the same way wherever they appear — see Statistics Table Editor, Trait Table Editor, and Tag Editor.
