[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 8200219, member: 18"] I don't think you'll have The Gandalf. I'm very sure of that. It's either him or the Harry Potter, and the Harry Potter can be young or old, male or female, but the Gandalf type is just an old, weird angel-man (soz Gandy I love you man). The Harry Potter-type class entry will say that Gandalf is one of them, though. Also he like, barely does any magic (in books he almost seems to do even less!). Nobody will want to be that dude in 2021. Not even with Ian McKellan as the archetype. Also I think you maybe need to expand on what "the Aragorn" is. I don't think, god love 'im, the film LotR Aragorn will be something many people want to be, because he's well... sorry he's not very cool. And by 2021, the book-Aragon will be regarded the same way. But if we're talking some of kind of versatile warrior, with survival skills, maybe stealth skills, maybe a bit of a commando (because really, Aragorn kind of is), then yeah. Though maybe you mean something else? Otherwise I think that's a pretty great list. I do think maybe one think I overlooked was the like "vampiric warrior". Yeah vampire/dhampir will probably be one of the races, but I'd be very unsurprised if there was some kind of Elric-esque class people wanted - probably not book 1 material though.
