Wizards, sorcs, clerics.
There's a real shortage of them around right now, to my mind, and it's making finding a group to quest or explore with often tricky with no buffs or support spells. If you haven't considered one recently, try a concept with one perhaps.

Dr Dragon

No buffs or support? COME ON!

We need more clerics preaching the views and words of their god and even trying to convert people. forcing adventurers pay lip service and to follow the laws/rules of your god!


Wizards whom wish to understand the Art and research the Island and perhaps unlocking the potential to their school! Perhaps form their own orders!

a diviner who wants to scry

A necromancer who wants to form an undead army and become undead himself

a conjurer who aspires to summoning devils and demons and other creatures from the planes.

A wizard who thinks Sorcs are simply abominations.


A wizard who wishes to prove the supremacy of his/her school


a Wizard Gangster


An enchanter who wishes to interogate people.

Sorcerors who wish to unlock the Bloodmage or prove themselves equal or more superior then wizards.



I am disgusted by the comment "MAKE WIZARDS AND CLERICS ITS HARDER TO QUEST WITHOUT BUFFERS!" A wizard and cleric is much more then a buff bot and anyone who says otherwise disgusts me.

Clerics Preach your god WIzards and Sorcs do ur shit but do not make a buff bot!

@DrD:
Miss the point much?
My observation was there's a shortage of casters, which negatively impacts the server by making it harder by making it considerably harder to do anything but sit around town and RP chat, locks out the potion market etc. This doesn't affect my main PCs much as they're either a wizard or in a faction, but it will for other players'. Yes, you can play way more than a buffbot, but when player's can't rustle up anyone willing to cast PFE and magic weapon, regardless of how else they play it the server stagnates, with nobody questing or exploring (except in stealth) fewer people log on. It's the same if there's no frontline PCs about, say. A balanced mix of classes on the server keeps things active. Even if you never cast a buff on anyone in the life of your PC, the existence of your PC makes things more intersting than having no magic users in a fantasy setting XD.

The *concept*'s up to the player, and there are way more ideas that I can be bothered to list. If every player reading this makes a dull concept, that is their problem DrD, not mine. Wow, That really is a lot of hate for my assumption that players here are capable of creating awesome ideas by themselves and might want to make one of the classes that there are way few of recently. Really, that's often how I've come up with PCs. "What class haven't I seen in a while/played in a while? Right. I'll do one of those. Now who's he going to be?". I don't feel i need to hold player's hands by making a mage guild or something to promote more wizards, say.

you're a good lad Egon, and I think you're a good egg.

However.  You don't half come up with some silly suggestions on the forums :)

play whatever you feel like, folks, don't be swayed by any "need moar fighters!111!" stuff ;)
