STEP FOUR: CHOOSE YOUR ARCHETYPE

Each class has five Archetypes to choose from. These give you access to different abilities but are not intended to restrict the flavour you bring to your character. The Cleric archetype is the option to play a Fantasy Healer character, and does not necessarily mean that they are linked to a deity. You can only ever play one Archetype, so choose wisely.
