In role playing games (particularly those related to D&D) the term ‘Class’ refers to the ‘profession’ of the character, also called the ‘Character Class.<\/a>‘\u00a0 Fighter, Cleric, Magic User, etc.\u00a0 It defines what your character is able to do in the context of the game.
\nIn Victorian Dreadful that meaning still exists.\u00a0 BUT, there is another meaning that carries as much weight and importance in the context of Society in Victorian Dreadful.\u00a0 Class in this case refers to ‘Social Class<\/a>.’<\/p>\n

In Victorian England, indeed every country in the 19th century, Social Class is what defined an individual in the eyes of society far more then profession. Your family and their social class defines you.\u00a0 How you were born is more important then what you do!\u00a0 Social class will largely determine your education and career opportunities and in doing so establish restrictions on what your character can do.\u00a0 The lower your social class, the fewer options you have in life.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Unless otherwise determined, ALL PLAYER CHARACTERS start as Middle Class.<\/p>\n
