This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Here's my website. It's defunct, but there's gaming stuff on it. Much of it's missing. Sorry.

I've got a blog. Do you read other people's blogs? I dunno. You can say hi if you want, though, I don't mind company. It's not all gaming, though; you run the risk of running into my RL shit.

I would takea lesson from Star Wars Saga. Less is More.

Less classes that can be customized for individual identities.

Jock - Covers bullies and the athletic kids. This is basicly your fighter class.

Geek - Covers Nerds, Bookworms, people who are interested more in knowledge than anything else. This is basicly your Mage class, however use experiments instead of magic with specializations based off their favorite "subject". Isolated by choice rather than unsociability.

Socialite - Covers you're snobs, spoiled brats, socialites and fashionistas. They don't neccisarily have to be rich , and being rich isn't neccisarily a prerequisite. Pretty much a rogue class, backstabbing and al that

Outcast - All of your misfits. Goths, punks, wiccans, artists, theatre kids etc. This is your toolbox class...a la bards. Outcast do to their quirkyness and/or strange lifestyle.

Normal (needs a better name...but maybe not) - Your regular kids. Nice girls /guys, trying to get through and not have a rough time about it.



Maybe I'll build something with this idea for the Battle Royale one shot I've been thinking about!

How about:

Freshman
Sophomore
Junior
Senior

Those are the "classes" I remember - but it's been a few years :p

What Ronin said. :)

It makes sense to use classes, because the groups are very much there -- but it's also important to represent people being a member of different groups and being able (or not) to move bewteen them, hence the multiclassing.

 Wouldn't that be covered by "Levels" if you're basing this off of the D20/OGL system model ??

 If this was GURPS - I'd just add 10 to maybe 12 characters points after each year of school and some random quirks, disads, and advantages gained.

 We're totally off-topic...but Thank You.

I like wearing either black or white shirts when I GM  - that was taken during a meal break at a game session.
