Good points about class. But even little things like “you are a warrior…you know a good blade when you see one” would totally work. And imagine if you could respond to assumptions about your class?
Well ... class maybe ... certainly not subclass, that is thin ice area in my opinion ...
It totally works for Fighter ... but how many small talks can you write for each class?
And how would you approach the infamous Rogue?
They are main stumbling-stone here ... other classes can be generalized, kinda, but Rogue?
Rogues can be litteraly anything from Beggar, or Tief, over simple Traveler, to Assassin, or even Spellcaster.
As far as i know, the determining feature for all Rogues is that they are skilled in anything they are specialising to ... but problem is, it could be litteraly everything.
Also, there is a question how "lore-wise" are classes in DnD presented ...
Is "Rogue" indeed something you can litteraly become, or is that just some set of rules for us people to sumarize theese expertised nobodies?
I mean Barbarians, Bards, Clerics, Druids, Fighters, Monks, Paladins, Warlocks, Wizards ... theoreticaly even Rangers and Sorcerers ... they all represent some "kind off" society, or order ... but where Rogues came from?
Do they have any common threat that unites them all? I dont think so.
Maybe my perception of this class is slightly off, but it seems to me like if your character cant fit anywhere ... you can simply become Rogue.
