Mundane

Tier 0, where everyone starts

You start here, as a Mundane, before you've chosen a path. You can learn the first steps of fighting, weapons, dodging and Magic Use, but every skill stops at level 5 until you choose a class and its own caps take over.

The Mundane, as the game draws it

From the original game

“All the people of Akarra begin their journey as commoners, living their lives in peace, performing everyday duties. The mundane know a little of everything, but need to specialize if they want to become more advanced in an art.”

What sets it apart

  1. Every skill stops at level 5 for now, gathering and crafting included. Training past it isn't wasted: the extra experience goes into a bank for that kind of skill, and /bank moves it into another skill of the same kind that's still below its cap, now or after you change class.
  2. You can learn only the first row of each skill open to you. Each path's own skills stay closed until you take that path: the Apprentice's spells, the Neophyte's heals and wards, the Fighter's Toughness.
  3. Tend Wounds is the one healing skill open to you: it mends a friend within arm's reach, never yourself.
  4. Changing to Apprentice, Neophyte or Fighter gives back every attribute point you've spent and takes out every gem you've placed, so you spend and place them again under the new class's caps. You keep every skill you've learned. A later change, to Cleric, Warrior or Wizard, takes out your gems again but leaves your attributes alone.
