[QUOTE="Dr. Strangemonkey, post: 1896213, member: 6533"] I like the Noble, though the Lead by Example bit seems more than a little out of character and I think they need some more martial qualities to make sense of how often they fill out the ranks of knights in armies, but it seems to me that it doesn't fit the spectrum of social classes. My only real complaints for any of the classes are about the Noble's class features and the Born to the Saddle for Nomad, but that's not what gets me. What get's me is that in this wonderfully specific game the poor Noble class has to do too many duties. Afterall, if there are going to be Barbarians and Borderers shouldn't there be something to represent low class and non-military social types? It just doesn't fit the feel of the stories for me to have merchants with titles and princesses with heavy armor proficiencies. I need something different. A non-combat adventuring class with social, skill, and trickery power that fits somewhere in the space between scholar, noble, and thief. I've been working on something based off of the mechanics for Arcana Unearthed's Akashic, but mostly I wanted to know what the general opinion is on this. Does anyone else have a complaint or an argument to assuage my bitter heart? Or a suggestion on what class I could put into its place? I ask not just for my desire to have a class for every princess that people have to rescue, but also for a suffering PC who I just know wants something along these lines. [/QUOTE]
