Custom classes

Instead of a stock class, you can build your own at Character creation.

Building a class

Choose health per level (4 to 30).
Choose 3 primary, 3 major and 6 minor Skills.
Spread Attributes between 10 and 75 each.
Add up to 7 advantages and 7 disadvantages.

You can export and import custom classes as files.

Difficulty points and the difficulty dagger

Each advantage and disadvantage has a point value. Health per level changes the total as follows:

Health per level	Difficulty points per hit point
Above 8	+1
Below 8	−2

The total must be between −12 and +40.

That total sets how fast you level: an advancement multiplier from 0.3 (easiest) to 3.0 (hardest). The difficulty dagger gauge beside the sheet shows it. See Leveling.
