The four archetypes in the Renewal campaign are core character types, based around their roles in the game: those who create and refine, those who weave enchantments, those who sneak and investigate, and those fight and defend. Any character can dabble in any of these areas, but belonging to an archetype unlocks more powerful skills and deeper knowledge. |

In some respects, they’re similar to character classes in Dungeons & Dragons or similar tabletop games, but less rigidly defined; each archetype provides access to a number of different paths, and characters can make their focus – within their archetype – as narrow or as broad as they like. |

A character’s archetype doesn’t need to be chosen until they learn their first archetype skill (listed below), but once chosen, their archetype is fixed. They may be able to change skills around within their archetype (p. 00), but must keep to the same broad career. If a player needs to change archetype for out of character reasons – e.g. because the player can no longer safely take part in combat – they can discuss the issue with the Game Organisation Desk. |
|||
Every character can only have one archetype, but some cross-discipline training is possible: a character can learn archetype skills from other archetypes worth a total of up to half as many points as they have skills in their own archetype (p. 00). |
