Classes

Most of the core D&D classes remain unchanged. Druid & Cleric are replaced by Channeler, while Wizard and Sorcerer are replaced by Shaper. Monks will get a little tweaking as well.

Within the magic system of Narosia, Bards, Rangers, and Paladins are all considered Channelers in that their power is channeled from the Enaros.
Warlocks are shapers that have discovered ways to cheat the
Malanoor, weakening the skein between planes and allowing other worldly powers and energies through, however briefly. 
We are also introducing more detailed weapon proficiencies, which are outlined in the Development Points section (not released yet).
