RACES
Welcome to your next step in Crossroads! Now that you're familiar with the rules and the world we're set in, it's time to decide how you fit into this exciting universe. Here at Crossroads, we have a variety of Races for you to choose from, so think carefully about your decision. Once you pick a race and complete the whitelist process, remember that changing your race or class later involves following our re-roll rules.In Crossroads, we categorize races into three groups:
Common Races:
These are the most common races in Faerun. They form the majority of our world's population, living ordinary and extraordinary lives that impact our world in various ways.Malicious Races:
These races, like orcs, are often viewed with caution by the common races. They have unique ways of interacting with the world and are treated differently in most civilized areas.Limited Races:
While not more special than others, these races have unique origins. To maintain balance, we limit the number of players who can choose these races at any given time.Choose your race wisely and prepare for an unforgettable adventure in Crossroads!
CLASSES
Choosing the right class for your character is a crucial step in your Crossroads adventure. We offer a wide range of Classes, each with its own unique traits and abilities. As part of the whitelist process, you'll need to decide on two key aspects for your character:The Class:
Select the main class for your character. This choice shapes your character's fundamental abilities and role in the game.The Subclass:
Within your chosen class, pick a subclass. Subclasses allow you to specialize your character's skills and abilities, fine-tuning their strengths and play style.Remember, each class has several subclasses to choose from, so take your time to find the perfect fit for your character's journey in Crossroads!
PROFESSIONS
Now, it's time to choose a Profession for your character, a vital step for your whitelist application in Crossroads. Your Profession not only helps define your character but also plays a key role in gameplay, especially in crafting items that can benefit your character financially and in combat.Professions are divided into two main types:
Gathering Professions:
If you choose a Gathering profession, your character will spend a lot of time outside the safety of hubs, collecting materials from various locations on the map. These professions are primarily focused on gathering resources and typically have little to no crafting capabilities.Crafting Professions:
Characters with Crafting professions use the materials gathered by the Gathering professions to create finished products. These products can vary widely, from potions to sophisticated weapons and armor.Selecting the right Profession can greatly enhance your character's journey, offering unique opportunities and advantages in the world of Crossroads.
