Classes

In the world of Shinobu, people are often born into a class and majority of the time are unable to escape this class. Under certain circumstances can people escape their classes but, many have accepted their class as their way of life. Of course, in this world, freedom is something that many people strive for. So while you may be born into one class, many people change their class eventually. In this game however, we will not allow you to change the class you pick for your character. Through character development, you may be able to change your Faction but, not your class. Despite this, there aren't many things to distinguish people from what class they belong to outside of appearance. For example, the Ninja Villages typically have a headband that distinguishes them as members of that faction.

Classes

  • Ninja
  • Samurai
  • Bandit
  • Monk
  • Shaman
  • Noble
  • Royal

Ninja - One of the more common classes. As the game is called "Shinobu - World of Ninja" it can be assumed that this world is ruled by Ninjas. Majority of the people in the world claim themselves as ninja and generally speaking this is the class that most people belong to, even if they aren't apart of one of the Ninja Villages. Ninjas are generally the common class of people and as such are very versatile.

Samurai - The descendants of the guardians who protected the Royals in ancient times. Samurai have a military strength that more than rivals that of the Ninjas. They are also known for inventing majority of modern fighting styles and techniques. At some point, they had an alliance with the Ninjas. Some Samurai are even allowed to join the Ninja Villages. This is an elite class of fighter and they are known for upholding honor and dignity throughout the land.

Bandit - Criminals and the most basic class of criminals. "Once a criminal, always a criminal" as some would say. While known for violence and other questionable decision making, most people tend to stay away from bandits as they are always believed to cause trouble. They are known for going up against governments and often rebeling against local authorities.

Monk - The religious warrior. They are known for keeping the ancient custom of Shinobu. This includes reciting prayers and reading passages from the ancient books. A clergyman. They are also known for mourning the dead and typically survive off of public donations. Some Monks have very eccentric personalities and they also have an alliance with Samurai and Ninja. Between the three of them, they are the most common class.

Shaman - The spiritual keeper. Shamans are known for being able to communicate with deceased spirits. It was said that at one point, everyone was connected to the Spirit World but, soon, as technology progressed, man lost their connection with the world of spirits. Now only a few left and are able to communicate with the dead. Some Shamans are so strong that they can see ghosts anywhere. They also have a unique ability that allows them to manipulate and control spirits.

Noble - A loyalist to the Royals. This is someone whose family has pledged loyalty to the Royals. They have decided to spend their lives in service to the Royals and their duty is to keep them in power. Outside of the Ninja Villages that are ruled democratically, the rest of Shinobu is ruled by monarchy. Typically, this is a class that most people must be born into but, there are some exceptions. This is the closest one can get to becoming a Royal. It is also typical for Nobles to marry into Royal families.

Royal - A member of the gods. They are the original bloodline that butchered many peasants out of greed. One must be born into this class and there are absolutely no excuses for this. They typically take on political roles but, it is said that there are few who can escape this lifestyle. It is said that God himself bestowed this class with the duty to rule over all other classes of people. They typically have huge egos that match their oversized bank accounts and the amount of land they own. The Royals are the rarest class and are typically seen within the capitals of every nation.
