The world is bound by the Sacred Law of Class and Level. You cannot be anything other than what your Class says you are, you cannot be greater than your Level, you cannot be mightier than your Skills.
This is the law ordained by the Divines: that you use your Class well, that you act with honor and faith, that you seek to raise your Levels and use your Skills. Let the Warriors go to battle, the Mages to magic, the Workers to labor.
By ancient law and divine decree, no new starting class may be made. It must have been known from elsewhere, for the sake of society and peace. Classes may merge and evolve, as the Divine see fit, but new ones may not be introduced. The sole exception is by an outsider, someone whose world is not bound by the Sacred Law. Many times, these outsiders have come. Sometimes they die alone in a dragon's jaws or in a lonely ravine. Sometimes they gain a class like Knight or Emperor. Sometimes, they introduce classes like Engineer, Artificer, Pirate, Bandit, Summoner, and Sportsman.
These Outsiders are by no means uncommon. There are even some in this world at this very moment.
Including one who just showed up, and got a brand new class no one even heard of - Revolutionary.
