Latest revision as of 18:48, 15 November 2023
Here you can find a list of sample skill packages, but as you can technically combine any skills you wish, you can create your own!
Melee Combatants
- Warrior — Anyone can pick up a weapon and fight, but not everyone can be a true fighter. The Warrior is a basic combatant, but that gives them a lot of potential for growth.
- Weaponmaster — Variety is the spice of life, and for the Weaponmaster that applies to their preferred method of fighting. Instead of specializing, they prefer to be knowledgeable in many weapon types.
- Soldier — Soldiers are trained in a specific fighting style; their culture typically determines their weapon selection and training, which can be quite varied based on cultural norms.
- Knight — A warrior aristocrat, skilled in war and steeped in social grace. Most come from powerful noble families, while others are minor nobles or even commoners who evince some skill at arms.
- Martial Artist — Specializing in a variety of hand-to-hand combat styles, the martial artist combines skill and tradition and fights either with their fists or other weapons.
- Duelist — Nobody specializes in one-versus-one combat like a duelist! Learning from a variety of sports-like fighting styles and employing finesse, their training ensures they excel in the art of the duel.
- Bushi — Skilled warriors trained in a particular fighting style known either as Iaido or Battojutsu. Capable of quickly drawing their weapons and dealing damage in a lightning strike.
- Marshal — A trained warrior skilled in leadership and getting the most out of his fellow men, raising morale and inspiring courage on the battlefield.
- Berserker — By entering a rage-trance state, these warriors push their bodies to the limit and find themselves capable of cleaving through foes and ignoring pain. Some even attain the legendary state of Riastrad.
- Gladiator — Whether for sport, money, fame or for no other choice being available, some people take up arms for the sake of entertainment. To a Gladiator, the performance is just as important as the battle prowess.
- Cavalier — Cavaliers are skilled at fighting whilst mounted, and are often found charging across a battlefield and decimating their enemies. Their mounts are an extension of themselves, a tool and a weapon.
- Crusader — These warriors dedicate themselves to a cause, the symbol of their order trailing on a long, fluttering banner. Their power comes from conviction, oaths, and challenges of their cause.
- Swashbuckler — Swashbucklers rely on speed, agility, daring and panache over brute strength. Parries and ripostes make them slippery in combat.
- Matador — Being trained in both speechcraft and weaponry, the matador is as graceful an actor as they are a combatant. Their words can bite as much as their weapons.
- Rikishi — Large, bulky warriors that specialize in grappling and throwing their weight around the battlefield. Their bodies are capable of taking quite a bit of punishment.
- Shieldwall — Though to many a shield is a defensive tool, these warriors excel and master its use in many forms. Even in the midst of combat, they tend to focus more on defense.
- Descendent — In your body lies a hidden heritage that you can make manifest and potentially embrace and master. Drawing upon it gives you unique powers and capabilities.
- Paramander — Whether it's through blood or training, these combatants specialize in disrupting phenomena and the supernatural. Whether it's the arcane, divine, psionic or something else, they have no fear.
- Wukong — Given abilities and training from Primordial Monkeys, these combatants specialize in mobility, trickery, and uncertainty in combat to keep their edge.
- Beastmaster — Not only do you run and fight with beasts, but you can also command them to aid you in battle. Graced with their gifts, you are a capable combatant with many different abilities available to you.
- Kensai — Dedicated to the mastery of a specific type of weapon, their training and skill allows the weapon to almost become like an extension of their body. Like a painter's brush, their weapon is a tool of expression.
- Kopiatze — Either through training or skill, the Kopiatze is capable of eidetic kinesthesia and thus can mimic techniques and styles used by others through simple observation. Kopiatze are not to be underestimated.
- Kraftkarl — There are some who take physical strength and prize it above all else. They are capable of legendary feats of pure brawn and what your local strongman aspires to be.
Ranged Combatants
- Harrier — Focusing on smaller ranged weapons, these combatants specialize on mobility, skirmishing, and hit-and-run tactics. They are also generally trained at being able to fire whilst moving.
- Marksman — Masters of ranged weapons, Marksmen are the pinnacle of training and skill with their weapons. Capable of using all but the heaviest of weapons and capable of long ranges.
- Bowcaster — Treating their bows almost like a wand, Bowcasters temporarily enchant their ammunition to achieve a wide array of effects making them effective in numerous situations.
- Tracker — Trained to raise and fight with their hound, Trackers make capable bounty hunters and are able to rely on their hounds to have their back. Some worlds have hounds with supernatural abilities!
Those of Guile
- Thief — Masters of pure, unbridled stealth and thievery. Being capable of far less than some others means that the Thief is free to truly shape their destiny.
- Daredevil — Bodies unbound, fluid movement and unmatched grace are the tools of the Daredevil, making them agile combatants and more than capable cat-burglars.
- Rogue — Sometimes called brutes or thugs, stealth alone isn't always enough to get the job done. The Rogue has enough training to be a deadly nuisance.
- Ranger — When it comes to setting traps and ambush tactics, nobody beats a Ranger. Through guile and stealth in nature, anyone crossing through the wilds wants to be on their good side.
- Picaro — Some thieves find themselves adventuring not only with their dexterity, but their wit and social graces. A Picaro tends more towards being carefree than criminality.
- Shinobi — Trained and skilled in ninpō and ninjutsu, they use their stealthy nature to great advantage. Generally broken into different clans or tribes, some with almost mystical training.
- Spindel — The Primordial Spiders train these already stealthy beings and grant them additional gifts of webcraft, the production of venom, and climbing abilities while additionally honing their instincts.
- Wadjet — Masters of subterfuge, venomcraft, and hypnosis, the charming Wadjet are granted their gifts from the ancient Primordial Serpents. If mesmerism won't help their cause they can fall back on their stealth.
- Trickster — Slippery, tricky, sneaky... there's a lot of words that can describe these tricky devils. Tricksters tend to be flamboyant, after all, if nobody sees a trick, what good is it?
- Ghost — Some individuals have a preternatural connection with shadows and the realm of spirits, as if they are the physical embodiment of a ghost. This grants them an almost magical suite of abilities.
- Revolutionary — Anarchists, insurrectionists or rebels, Revolutionaries stand for freedom, the lower strata of social classes and oppose anyone who would use rank or power to control others.

- Wandslinger — While not as capable as a fully dedicated wizard, Wandslingers have access to a far wider variety of spells and abilities that specialists are incapable of matching.
- Witch — There are powerful beings of eldritch and supernatural power that can be found if you know how to look, though some are less willing to part with their power unless a bargain is made.
- Kahunga — The pinnacle of two separate arts practiced by one planes's Kahuna and the other planes's Tohunga, a Kahunga uses their body as a grimoire. Each tattoo holds both a story and a spell.
- Rummage — Also called Junk Mages, a Rummage is an individual who, somehow, makes arcane magic work uniquely on their terms; through scraping together spells from bits of a dream, half-formed true names, or theoretical thaumaturgy.
- Wizard — Due to the processes required to develop, memorize and practice arcane arts, Wizards are specialized arcane casters capable of powerful feats. Each type of wizard specializes in a different area.
