[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 8248898, member: 7006"] I also don't see any use for making a Class an actual thing in the game-world necessarily, unless the players of that game and characters themselves wish to identify themselves that way. For me, characters are what they are, and there is no need to categorize them. If a character in the game world is a necromancer, then that's what they are and what they (and others) call them themselves. There's no need to say they are actually a Wizard, but with a minor in Necromancy. What's would be the point? What's gained? Likewise... if you fancy yourself as the Lord's Hand and you hold that position... there's no reason why you nor anyone else in the game world would say "Oh, so you're not the Lord's Hand [I]per se[/I]... you're actually a Paladin with an Oath to the Crown!" Because the response would be "Uh, no... I'm the Lord's Hand." Obviously others go the other way, and more power to them. But for me... if my PC is a skald, then they're a skald, not a bard.
