I can't really help you because I have little knowledge about your game, if you'd like to expand upon your original post I'll be able to contribute more.

Why do you need "classes" exactly? Why not natural traits, and those gained by experience? If you want a dragon slayer or something, you could add that as an actual occupation. If you're just trying to bend the stat-mods and make them diverse, give the players the choice to do that themselves via customization and character progression. A skill-tree is a good example.
Let's face it, it's nigh impossible to come up with unique classes due to the fact it has been used countless times in the past. Take a different approach. |
