| − | This is a list of character classes for the [[Mage Wars RPG]].
| + | The classes are: |
| | + | *[[MRPG Warrior]] |
| | + | *[[MRPG Rogue]] |
| | + | *[[MRPG Ranger]] |
| | + | *[[MRPG Exo-Mage]] |

| | | | |
| − | ==Goal==
| |
| − | The game is intended to be largely class-less, with no rigid roles and a high-degree of customizability. While traditional RPG roles will exist(tank, healer, DPS, support, etc), there is no strict intention of "this class does this, that class does that" no "vision" and no player inter-dependancy.

| − | ==Classes==
| + | <!-- |
| − | The main character classes available at character creation:
| + | This is legacy information that has been updates. Basically we are dropping it all from the main page and going in to class pages. |
| | | | |
| − | #'''Warrior:''' Warriors are the basic sword-only class(though they have access to all weapons). Warriors cannot, by default, use any form of magic. They can wield magical items but cannot use scrolls or wands.
| |
| − | #'''Endo-Mage:''' The Endo-Mage gathers power from within themselves and focuses it into spells dealing with the four inner focal points. Specifically, Light, Dark, Mind, and Life.
| |
| − | #'''Exo-Mage:''' The Exo-Mage takes energy from the world around them, with a primary focus around the four cardinal elements. Specifically Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water.
| |
| − | #'''LifeBringer:''' Mage Wars has no priest-class, because priest implies fealty to a specific god. The Lifebringer is a mage who's skills are focused entirely around restoring and preserving life. While other classes have some healing ability, the strongest and most useful spells belong to the LifeBringer.
| |
| − | #'''Paladin:''' The Paladin is a holy warrior fully devoted to good. He uses powerful weapons, holy spells, and raw courage to prevail in a fight.
| |
| − | #'''Battling Sorcerer:''' Blending magic with the sword, Battling Sorcerers use weapons and melee combat to deal maximum damage.
| |
| − | #'''Necromancer:''' The Necromancer commands the undead and uses powerful and unique magics in battle.
| |
| − | #'''Raw-Form Caster:''' The Raw-Form caster gathers up the most primal from of magic and turns it into a weapon.
| |
| − | #'''Pimp:''' A reserved class made specially for developers and GMs, pimp is probably going to be made into a backronym sooner or later. The class essentially has the ability to use facets from all other classes and has no facet penalty. In addition, they have all [[MRPG Proficiency List|proficiencies]].

| | | | |
| − | ==Facet System== | + | ===Primary Proficiency=== |
| − | The game is designed to allow a high degree of customization or personalization, encouraging each player to develop a play style that they find entertaining. There is no "right" or "wrong" way to play a specific class.
| + | Like the skills, these can be chosen at character creation from a specific list and are set from then on. This proficiency gets a bonus at character creation, rank, and may receive situational bonuses. |
| | + | --> |
| | | | |
| − | The Facet System facilitates this by allowing players to "swap" facets through the use of in-game items and currency, essentially trading one facet they have earned from their class for another facet of a different class. Certain facets will be reserved, but in general players will be allowed to develop a highly varied character system.
