The Honored Ones are what most would consider the heroic band of folk that travel the land seeking out injustice and evil in the land of Yberia. Someone who is always willing to lend a hand if it means they've helped even one person have a better day. A Light hero is what he makes of himself though, no real written rule of conduct or what have you, just that he or she is a kind soul and looks out of the best interests of those around him as he rises in the rank of heroic fame. The Honored Ones benefit from signature styles and receives one signature style for each tier they reach.(Players choose which style they will start with at tier 1 the rest are determined from any style they used in the battle they win to advance to their next tier.) The Pathwalkers are ones of balance in all things. They can act selfish and greedy yet still not like the idea of taking anothers life as someone of a less savory nature would. This path is the glue some would say to keep the factions of Light and Darkness from completely consuming Yberia in their constant power struggle in an utter instant. To take the neutral path in this world is a heavy burden but can reap many rewards. The Pathwalkers benefit from both signature styles and locations alternating a gain of style one tier and then location the next. (Players choose which one they will start with at tier one weather it be a signature style or location and then alternate from one tier to the next the rest are determined from any style or location used in the battle they win to advance to their next tier) The Defilers are a shadowed and feared path by most in Yberia. The inner workings of cults and bands of death dealers is the norm when dealing with the forces of darkness. Most often little is known of these unholy warriors save for the body count left in their wake and little is usually done to stop their advance. To choose the path of darkness is to choose a path of chaos and untold evil hellbent on crippling the forces that choose to stand in their way The Defilers benefit from signature locations and receives one for each new tier they reach. (Players choose which location they will start with at tier 1 the rest are determined from any location they used in the battle they win to advance to their next tier.) Note: Once retired a character may transfer half it's yen rounded up to the new character and one chosen signature style or location to the newly made character but this can only be done once reaching the highest tier of their chosen path. If retiring and going from an Honored One to a Defiler or vise versa you will be able to choose a signature style or location to fit with your new chosen path.
