Destiny of Celtara does not have dedicated classes instead we have archetypes. An archetype does not tell you who you are but what you are. They are the foundation you build your character on and as skills are not restricted each archetype can be developed in any direction you want.
Of course that does not mean everyone is equally good at everything. All archetypes have strength and weaknesses. For example the Immortal has arguably an easier start but things can become far more challenging in the long run. Or the Gifted, an archetype that demands greater attention to your decision making and punishes mistakes but rewards you for creative role playing.
Here is a small overview of all the archetypes in DoC. A far more in depth look with all the rules and background can be found in the Core Rules.
The Enhancer
How can a normal human keep up with an ever advancing world? Enhance yourself!
You think a human can not make it to the top in Celtara? You think there is no way you can stand up against the mighty Immortals or the deadly Gifted?
Use every tool there is to get an advantage. Upgrade your body with implants, use gadgets and high tech weaponry and give yourself an edge with combat stimulants. Avoid a head on fight, control drones and lay traps. Take them out with a sniper rifle from 1000 meter away.
Don’t ever play fair. Only idiots play it straight. Seduce, blackmail, lie, buy or assassinate anybody who stands in your way.
An Enhancer’s true strength is that you do not have any weaknesses. You are just a face in the crowd. Anybody, anywhere.
Starting Difficulty: Medium
The Immortal
The Immortal is the crown jewel of thelasian technology, a fully robotic body controlled by a human mind. Once created to be the ultimate infantry soldier they became so much more.
Besides the military Immortals exist the Creed Immortals. Bound by oath they venture out to make the world a better place. How they go about it is largely their own choice and path. Rebuilding settlements and healing the sick, teaching children or protecting the defenseless from cruel abuse are equally valid.
Being an Immortal also means to live up to great expectations. Those in need will come to you for help and those who fear your might will attack without restraint. You stand out no matter where you go.
The path of the Immortal is that of duty, to your country and to yourself. If you lose your conviction you can quickly become the problem you once set out to fight.
Starting Difficulty: Easy
The Gifted
You do not choose to be a Gifted, you are born as one. You are born with the potential to do what no normal human can. Move matter with your mind, heat and cool objects and manipulate electromagnetic fields with your thoughts alone.
All of this is not just given to you. It takes years of dedicated and specialized training to create functional abilities. To create a psychic link between your subconscious talent and your conscious intent.
It is not an easy path and it also comes at a great cost. Your natural Aura disturbs electromagnetic fields around you and ultimately bars you from using modern electronics and all the convenience that comes with it.
But all the hardship and sacrifice is worth it in the end because a Gifted in their prime is truly incredible. Your powers know no equal.
Starting Difficulty: Hard
The Untouched
You always have been the underdog and you finally understand why. The world is not fair, never was. There are a select few who manipulate the strings of fate for their own advantage while the rest of humanity must suffer the consequences.
But you are different because the Fabric of Fate holds no power over you. It is in truth the opposite, you are the one who is in control. You are the only one who THEY fear.
You are being hunted, hated and often shunned for what you are and true friends are rare in this cursed world. But with every fight you grow stronger and eventually you will become the hunter.
Until this day comes you have to be smart and survive by all means.
Starting Difficulty: Give me Pain
The 5th Archetype
Gosh darn it! A thieving scoundrel has stolen all the documents about the 5th archetype. This dastardly deed will not go unpunished, do you hear me THE THIEF! ‘furiously shakes his fist’
By the Goddess, one day I will find you and return all that you have stolen!
