I have mapped out a pretty ambitious class structure for Fury, which you unlock over time based on upgrades you do to the Fury Academy building.  So the player gets to choose when they get access to which classes.

The classes are broken down into two basic types:  ”Pure” classes, and “Hybrids”.  The type of class you choose decides which cards you have access to for your adventurer, and may also convey some special abilities (I haven’t decided on that part yet).

Pure classes are specializations of the basic classes, and hybrids draw cards from each of their parent classes.

These are my initial thoughts on how the player goes about unlocking the classes, and a little bit about each class. Of course, this is all subject to change as I start implementing.
