Revision as of 20:37, 25 May 2006
When you create a character for Shartak, you must select one of nine character classes which serve as their background or occupation. Each character class is capable of having a similar game experience, but there are some differences in mechanics and abilities which lead to unique playing styles.
The different character classes possess different sets of default maximum Hit Points (HP), starting inventory, and range of skills available to each of them. Although each character class begins the game with 175 Action Points (AP) and regenerates one AP per 20 minutes, the default maximum is 75 AP for all classes except Scouts and Explorers. See Gameplay for an explanation of hit points and action points.
