This class is simply a vehicle to advance people who have everyday jobs that don't involve combat. The Commoner doesn't gain any extra HPs, BAB or Saves as he rises in levels, only skill points (base 8), feats (normal) and ability score boosts (normal). The difference between a commoner and a so-called "expert" is simply levels. The expert is just a higher level commoner. The aristocrat is essentially the same, but they are more likely to dabble in warfare (multiclassed with the warrior or fighter) or other another PC class.The net result being I can have normal people who are good at their jobs (a 12th level blacksmith or sage has zero impact on the power of the game) without possessing unrealistic combat ability on the side.Cheers,A'koss.</blockquote>
