Of the handful of factions and classes chronicled by us, we’ve no doubt those who come to join and study them will find them equally preposterous and outlandish. Only some of the denizens of Maldrax Rift have been formally recorded.
Others occupy, in many cases, a touch stranger place in the
Rift’s scandalous history.

Class Types

Eight Class Types encompass nearly all the classes within Castle of Nightmares. Every Type bears a unique skillset and signature. Souls of every walk of life and alignment may play any role at any time. One’s friend today could be one’s sworn enemy tonight.

Social classes specialize in dialogue, relationships, and influence. They are likely to be active in the court’s deliberations and efforts to sway minds and trials, as well as establish connections and associations.

Support classes specialize in protection and empowerment. They may counter curses and prevent attacks, and may also enchant individuals and artifacts.

Special classes are unique roles that possess exclusive skillsets. These classes are stronger in some respects than common classes, but are often high priority targets of their enemies.

Investigative classes use their skills in deduction and field operations to gather information and discern identities. They can discover key intel about others, but this does not mean they always share their findings.

Killers are able to use physical attacks or magical spells to eliminate targets. Killers can be good or evil and often prove key to the outcome of a faction’s story.

Offensives use abilities and tactics designed to disrupt and control others. These classes may or may not be beneficial to one’s agenda, depending on type.

Chaos classes specialize in pure chaos, harnessing the forces of chaos and trickery to wreak havoc and cause confusion. Though unstable and unpredictable, they can be very useful.

Demonics are masters of the demonic arts, either being demons themselves or harnessing demons or demonic powers to suit their ends. As keepers of dark eco, demonics can also be powerful allies or foes.
