A Strategic Guide to Dereth - Character Creation Asheron's Call is a game of epic scope and scale, and the character creation system is no different. There are a number of character types you can play as. Some play as powerful warriors who specialize in toe to toe combat. Some fight with bows and use ranged attacks. Still more use the arcane arts or become master craftsmen.
Warriors are strong and agile.
Fighting with their melee weapon of choice and most of the time a shield, they are a force to be reckoned with. Mages are mystical people who use their brains over brawn. Do not be fooled, a skilled mage can be very powerful indeed. Archers are quick and coordinated. Attacking from afar, they can inflict much damage while staying well out of an enemies's range.
