All characters start at level 1, and level up when they receive enough experience. Leveling up allows a character to take another level in a class, eventually to choose a subclass, and optionally to multiclass. After reaching level 12, no further levels are gained, so no other class-related choices are possible. | |||
Using [[Withers]]' services, the player can change the class of a character, setting them back to level 1 and allowing them to change their class(es) and subclass(es). | |||
