http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?t=228388[Creative exercise/game] Present a setting solely in terms of character classes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just like the thread title says. The name of the game is to create or present a setting, but to present it entirely in the form of a comprehensive list of player character classes.
Rules
*No description of the setting/game beyond the character classes. That would miss the whole point.
*There must be at least three and no more than eight character classes.
*Each class is a name and a brief description - twenty words maximum.
*They must all be player character classes. No "villain classes" or anything else intended to be off limits to players.
*Conversely, only the character classes given are valid options for play.
*Any combination of options from the list should create an equally workable game.
*No cop-out "wild card" character classes that are defined as "those who don't fit any of these classifications".
*You can talk about the setting you had in mind after someone has commented on your list. So...
*... comment on people's lists, even if you've not submitted one of your own. Guess what kind of setting they're supposed to be for and what the game would look like.
