Two additional characters have been added for the prototype build, bringing the total of playable characters up to 6, one for each major class type. Marvel at the drastic inconsistency in quality of the placeholder art:

Character classes in this game are categorised into 6 superclasses based on their core function:

• Fighter: Basic melee DPS
• Armor: Tanks
• Sneak: Supplemental melee that doesn't obstruct enemies (enemies can walk straight past them)
• Sniper: Ranged physical damage
• Mage: Ranged magic damage (ignores 75% of defense)
• Psionic: Ranged psychic damage (affected twice as much by defense, but always deals at least 50% base damage)

Veitti and Ajatta here are not 'starter' characters; they must be encountered randomly throughout your exploration. The full game will have a system to allow the player to pick one non-starter character as part of their initial party so long as they have said character unlocked for said purpose (how to unlock characters in this manner is up in the air).

Now we move on to diversifying enemy encounters a bit!
