[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 8249079, member: 63508"] I think Classes could be made to mean something in the setting. However since D&D is not a game based around a single setting or a family of setting that match similiar ideas in world building, it shouldn't be forced of default. You would have to do that from the start of class design. However I do support creation of a setting where the premise thickly pushed to have all the classes and subclasses mean something. Imagine the World of Fives, where every member of a class is the fifth class training option in XGTE [LIST] [*]All Barbarians have been struck by lighting and lived.
