It'd be a fun class! You'd get to run around and rot your way to lvl 30!

My idea with this class is that it would be sombody to fight against the Pacifists.. Healing would hurt them.

*Damage would be reduced to like 3/4th the norm, because the undead wouln't feel much pain if they lost an arm... because their past death...
*They'd have 'curse spells' (like the cleric buffs, but oposite..)
*They would not get hungry, because... have you ever seen a skeleton eat, or drink food (without it spilling out of them)?..
*Weapons would be of a figher
*Armor like a Berzerker. (Gain/lvl, no armor pices though..)
*Joining clans would be posible, but odd, because they arn't loners (like pacifists) their just outcasts, but if an outcast is invited into a home (a clan) they outcast would probobly go inside..
*Poisen would do nothing to them, because their lack of blood might stop any poisen from spreding..
*Other Skeletons (Monsters) would not attack them, and the skelletons would show up green to that charicter, so they wouldn't fight..)

(I've gotta sleep, college enrollment early tomarow.. other people can revise this list of atributes for this class if they want, I like it.)



I like this idea the best.. Night all!

That doesn't make sense.
*closes his eyes for a moment and imagines the following scene*


Teacher: Tommy, what would you like to be when you grow up.

Tommy: A fighter.

Teacher: Very well, Tommy. What about you, Grace?

Grace: I'd like to be an all-powerful mage.

Teacher: You'll have to study hard, Grace; what about you Billy?

Billy: I want to be a SKELETON!

Teacher: I'm sure you will Billy, but what do you want to DO?

Billy: Oh, I'd like to run around and rot, and kill some pacifist's.

Teacher: Ok Billy, what about you Kathy?

. . .

There you go.

I'm sure I've seen this idea before... only with more thought put into it :P
I thought it was a bad idea then, and unfortunately I think its a bad idea now, but I will try to explain why:

Unless your aim in life is to die, which... okay it might be... it isn't a very viable job, is it? I would have thought "undead" would be more of a 'race' than a 'class', wouldn't you? (however had you suggested it as a race, I still wouldn't have liked the idea)

And though on your list they immediatly begin to seem superpowered (immune to hunger, thirst, poison, undead monsters... with the only real detriment of a little less attack, and the somewhat confusing prospect of a creature which is rotting away becoming STRONGER as it levels up) there's something else which would make them a complete nightmare

The good old fashion healing ability of Clerics, Paladins and Druids :P
If there were an undead class or race, heal would surely have to damage them.
Anything with such a fault is doomed ^^

Undead isn't a class. No. Stop posting new classes.

This has been suggested numerous times in the past, and shot down every time. Virtually no class suggestions have ever been carried further by the staff. Aren't you happy with the nine classes that we have already?

Okay, I like it though.. originally I was gonna make it a race, but then I thought.. why not a class?

And come on people.. does everything in this game have to make sense?..

Yes, in fact, everything in a game, especially the ground work structure of the characters, does need to make sense.

Undead isn't a class or a race, it is a condition of a race, the only undead character in the game is Angel, as he truely is a Vampire.

Ty MCM with that Animaniacs avy..

Anyways! I'd like you all to know that there are plenty of Undead chars in games (Sukioden is one great shinning example!)

Just because somthing is new, dosn't mean that it's wrong..

open your mind.. what if a skeleton came back from the dead, but still had a mind? still had feelings, still had a soul, still had a conchiance.. thats what this class was...

(Skrew it, I'm gonna re-make the shaman class!) :P :P :P

PS: I just want to 'add some varity' to the game.. so it dosn't get so lame after a while (repedative on the charicter part of it..)
