Primalist

People of the Last Refuge, the sole remaining bastion of humanity in the world consumed by the Void,were certain that living on the Eterra's surface is impossible, and that all Human settlements other than the Last Refugeare long gone. They were wrong, however, and some humans were still there, on the Void consumed surface, clinging to fading light of Hope, believing that not everything is lost. Those people have managed to stay alive by guarding the last vestiges of the dormant Eterra's power and staying close to its protecting light. These enclaves didn't last long, however, and the last remnants of Eterra's light were soon extinguished. There were only two survivors, a Woman and her Son who had found an underground passage in the mountains and managed to block it behind them. They were determined to die on their own choosing, in the total darkness, rather than being devoured by the Void. The fate was kind to them, however, and they stumbled upon the signs of habitation left by the people of the Last Refuge. Last Refuge's elders didn't kill them on sight only because of woman's druidic powers and her strong connection to Eterra.

Rogue

The ability to make problems disappear is a very marketable trait in the slums of the Last Refuge, where the problems very often assume the form of people. Rogue was a master of problem-solving, and her favorite method of solving other people's problems involved a Bow and a very well hidden Blade. She never questioned her clients and didn't pay much thought to "problems" that she solved. This changed when a strange woman in dark robes placed a bounty on someone that the Rogue knew to be innocent. That event made Rogue question her ways and her purpose in life. She decided to root out the corruption of the slums, and cleanse them from depravity. Her plans were, however, foiled by the Void that swept whole Last Refuge clean of life.

Sentinel

The weak and the poor need protectors. Sadly, most of the Last Refuge's guards prefer to stand by the rich and influential rather than by those in real need. The Sentinel was Different, however. He listened to his father's tales of the sentinels of old who have protected the world from corruption. He took his Father's tales to heart and became the living memory of those long gone sentinels. His skill, might, and righteousness were unmatched by anyone, but truth be told no one really wanted to match them. Instead, those who possessed the power chose to twist and bend it to suit their needs at the expense of the weak. Sentinel's father was soon exiled for the crimes he didn't commit thanks to a favor owned by one of the Elders. But even then, Sentinel stood true to his beliefs and protected the oppressed until the Void came crashing through the Last Refuge.

Void Knight

A piece of darkness has taken a root inside of the Void Knightand His, once righteous heart, was warped by the Void. He became the vessel for Void's darkness that now imbues his attacks and consumes essences of his fallen enemies. His mind begins to slip away into the all-consuming Void, and the Void's influence over Him becomes more and more powerful. Eventually, the Void Knight will turn into one of the very creatures that he had once fought against...

Paladin

The Paladin is a Warrior of Light. The Light aids him in battle and protects him from his foes. His great power comes from His faith and his faith is unwavering. Paladin became a beacon of Hope on the Void-consumed Eterra, and will not stop until the last of his enemies is burned with holy fire.
