Noble

Noble is a starting transition class. Every class growth modifier is 0, and it has no active class abilities. Switch once a suitable beginner class is available to gain its growth and skill experience bonuses early.

Who suits the class#

Characters who join as Nobles should branch by role:

• Theodora: Noble → Soldier → Armored Knight → Guardian for a spear-and-shield frontliner with healing. The story may switch her to Soldier early; do not specifically grind to level 10 first.
• Tobias: for axe arts, take Gladiator, Brigand, and Warrior, then Battlemaster. Focus training on Axe from the start.
• Bonaventure: switch to Diviner for black magic, then Shaman, Ovate, and Druid for magic damage.

How to train#

Noble is a starting class without an exam. It can use swords, spears, axes, bows, gauntlets, and both magic types, including spells already learned, but gives no specialized proficiency experience bonus. Train what the next class needs instead of spreading training across every permitted weapon.

Base Movement is 4. Combat Basics mastery gives Hit and Avoid +3 each, filling early slots once learned. Only class growth bonuses are all zero; personal growths still apply normally.

When to move on#

Once exams open, switch to a suitable beginner class rather than staying for Noble mastery. Before reclassing opens, spend long free-time windows exploring instead of grinding the starting class into the teens or twenties. On carryover runs, check experience bonuses to avoid leveling too quickly in a low-tier class.
