Protagonist

The player can start as Male or Female gender in any one of the five available Origins stories.

Origins Stories
The game starts with a choice between a nameable male or female protagonist, and one of five origins stories. Each origin story offers some unique dialog, quests, and effect which NPCs can be encountered, but doesn't affect the game in an immense way; however, this does give you some freedom in giving the protagonist a semblance of characterization.

Each origin include a flavor story at the beginning of the game, which you can choose to play through or skip. If you skip origin, you automatically start in Oakshire with Meredith as companion with her and you both at level 3.

Perks
Each player starts with an origin related Perk. After each level up you gain a perk point, which can be spent in the perk tree. The perk tree is accessible via the mirror in Castle Whitemoon (left path from Oakshire's teleportation cystal), after you clear the castle of ghosts. The mirror is located in the main throne room, near Facis, your butler.

Note: Your starting perk is where you start on the perk tree. You can't invest into other starting perks

Class
Your starting class is affected by your origin. Then throughout the game, you'll find different quests that will unlock a class and change your current class. Every class has its own benefits and its set of combat abilities. Outside of combat you can switch classes from the Menu, but while auto battle is on your character can use abilities from any classes that support your current weapon(s) (as of v2.2.)

Note: While on these quest, you have the option of turning down the class as a reward. This loses you the class forever. Make sure you never want to be the class you are turning down as there is no way to restore it without starting the game over.

Note: All of these classes can be unlocked in Act 1
