An agonized scream startles all into a brief hushed silence as (IRON CHEF PRODUCER) finally transcends the mortal body, assuming the hollow form of a Tekal.
Zhukov has been slain by the might of (THAT LONG-HAIRED PRODUCER OF OURS).
Ninnanna has been slain by the might of (DEFINITELY NOT AFRAID OF WOMEN PRODUCER).
Sagla has been slain by the might of (THE PRODUCER WHO HAS AT LEAST 8 PEOPLE PROOF-READ A POST AND STILL TYPOS).
Rawyn has been slain by the might of (HIS GLORY, RAZMAEL).
I found it!
Yes indeed, our Glorious Producer not only managed to get Tekal as a Druid, but through a PENTAKIIIILLL!!!!, AND by killing Plato.
Name redacted and justifiably replaced just because, y'know, there might still be folks that don't know. Maybe. Possibly.
* Beastlore, which sounds like a version of lycanthropy, but with seven different shapes.
* Cerberi, sortof like Warhounds from the Carnifex
* Idolatry, a version of Domination.
I wish we could make this happen, cause it really sounds awesome and the Lore is still there, with descriptions of the skillsets.
Mix of a healer, mutation addict, with use of of arcane magical devices
Their key abilities is being able to mend and break bones, iconically mending living and dead equally. Breaking and mending corrupt flesh and Induce greater effects in the organs of a person's body for good or for worse.((For example, you been drinking, someone induces you're liver for the worse, making the alcohol affect you're system longer, and harder to get rid off the side-effects)) Partial stone-flesh for e/b protection, and Bioluminescense that can make even the most sneaky thief glow in the dark. The ability to exploit certain regenerative limbs and organs of the body, like growing bone-wings, bone exoskeleton, and blood-boils ((using vampire blood pool)) which react to being hit to heal you some. An towards the end of the totem pole, they can even effect up to five people with massively imbued arcane effects. Ether-induced effects which can break a body apart limb by limb as they disintegrate. Unlike other classes, they form a 'link' to imbue effects into their enemies imbuing a constant stream of energy even if they run out of the room continues this link which can use to send effects into others.
While their second skill would be alchemy. Art of using minerals to create all kinds of new things, some thrown, some quaffed for their own perks and side-effects ((change something internally about the alchemist)), others applies to their armour/weaps to provide elemental reactions to their arcane abilities. ((sword imbued with elemental fire will sometimes blast their enemies with a jet of heated flames created by the arcane ether released by the swords reaction to flesh))
Third skill set is combination of electrical engineering and magi-tekno doo-hickies. Final Fantasy 6 is basically the back-round theme here. Combination of elemental steam-technology, devices for rapid heating and cooling of air and water. Earthen constructs and fire projectiles Combining each of the elemental arts which used to create offensive devices, defensive modules, barriers of lightning-fueled batteries protecting areas to make life easier even for towns with new technology shared with the lands that can be used by individual cities
Bards tho amirite.

Sorry for the daemons that explode out your anus that second you bungle up and stare deep into the Warp.
As you prepare the ritual, something is immediately wrong in the atmosphere. A sudden pressure builds into a tight buldge in you're posterior, you quickly grip you're rear in a panic and find a safe place nearby to cop a squat. Demonic spiders begin squirming out of you're posterior to much pain and pleasure as they immediately begin eating you from inside out, infecting you with daemonic poisons, dissolving flesh from the bones numbing you're senses as you are quickly dissolved and eaten by the spiders.
Closest can get to warhammer 40k! I've been wanting to see a chaos soldier design for AGES in a mud....Nuttin like turning you're left hand into a enormous wad of flesh to smash into others! I miss warhammer 40k mmo sometimes....

Class skills: Carousing, Charismatics, Brawling
Class Aesthetics: The Bastard is a neutral class with no inherent alignment. From all walks of life, from all cities and towns, the Bastard is a rogue who answers to none and serves only themselves. Not a path for one with scruples or a sense of shame, it takes equal parts quick wits and raw charisma to be a successful Bastard.
(I didn't balance this at all)
Skill Breakdown:
Carousing
Body hardened by quick escapes from jealous lovers (or their significant other), mind honed by tavern banter, and morality utterly amputated, Carosing is the art of getting out of (and into) trouble, with style.Charismatics
That quick mind of yours can get put to work in some rather...creative ways, if you know just what to say. (PVP PRIMARY SKILL)All charismatic skills with a * have an extra effect if the target isn't deaf. Use one charismatics after one brawling.
Lambast* - Tell 'em how you REALLY feel. (Sadness/Shyness if not deaf)
Yell* - HEY WAITER! WHERE'S MY DRINK? (Strips deafness/Stuns if not deaf)
HeadsUp* - See that guy over there? He keeps staring at you! (Paranoia/Superstition if not deaf)
TalkDown - Hey man, let's just take it easy! (Pacifism)
Wheedle - C'mon. Buy me a drink? (Generosity)
Layabout* - Man, what's the rush? (Lethargy/Weariness if not deaf)
Rush - Would you hurry up? (Impatience)
CircleTalk* - ...So you see, it couldn't have been me because I didn't do it! (Unenemied for 10s, requires not deaf)
Critique - You sure you don't just want a salad or something? (Anorexia)
Taunt* - C'mooon, hit me. Is that all you've got? (Berserk/Reckless if not deaf)
Crass* - H-how dare you! (Stuttering/Berserk if not deaf)
FakeOut* - The bad guy was you all along! (Dementia/Muddled and confusion if not deaf)
Brawling
Sometimes you've got to throw some punches. Rough 'em up a bit, y'know?(Anything with a * can be used with Charismatics following)
This class speaks to me. i mean look at these:
Tolerance - They call this water 'whiskey'?
DrunkRage - When you get a little drink in you, watch out! (+1 con, exclusive)
Yell* - HEY WAITER! WHERE'S MY DRINK? (Strips deafness/Stuns if not deaf)
Chuck - Throw a cup for some damage. The cup doesn't come back.

Think kind of like a mix between old school terramancy, domination, and apostasy. You'd have like, a mother fucking bone club to smack some bitches with, and drag'em by their hair and shit. Then you'd have the ability to summon dinosaurs as one-off summons (like, mother fucking t-rex fucking appears and fucks yo shit up), as well as persistent summons (think raptors to ride on, pterodactyls to fly with, and fuck bitches up).
I now realize that I basically thought up Teradrim but with dinosaurs. Did I mention that I love Teradrim?
(Spinesreach): Xiuhcoatl says, "Oh man, grab the children-corn. This is gonna be good."
Anyhoo, my ideal class kinda be like the monks from Diablo. Lightning fast hand to hand attacks using fist weapons and daibos as an alternative. A highly mobile class that uses flashy teleport-style attacks sometimes and can use teleporting for transportation via runes they leave on the ground and or other people. They also buff themselves and their allies with their mantras and area field effects they create. Lastly, they'd have some version of Kaido, except it would be more focused on things giving themselves massive steroids, or even an 'ascended form' (like Diablo Monk's Epiphany) that granted them access to powerful but short term abilities.
