Factions

Examples of the three factions.

Factions in Brighter Shores allow the player to specialise in using a specific combat style, though all factions have access to melee, ranged and magic. Players start off as a guard with the option to choose between being a Cryoknight, Guardian or Hammermage.

“	You will discover powerful magic sources and become one of the legendary classes of old: Cryoknight, Guardian or Hammermage. Which is fortunate, because something is corrupting the deepest reaches of the nearby Hopeforest, and only through the strength of your new-found powers will you be able to deal with it.	”
