Greetings fellow Elder Scrolls fans, as some of you may know, I'm slowly but surely developing a table-top Elder Scrolls RPG. As of right now, I am developing the classes in greater detail. More specifically, the class abilities.

Each class has a Guardian and a Charge (the birthsigns) associated with it, which determines what abilities they can invest in. In addition, you can learn abilities from your birthsign even if your class isn't associated with those signs.

Here's a "table" to illustrate.

The Charges - listed by Guardian
Warrior Class
Mage Class
Thief Class

The Apprentice
Rogue
Mage
Alchemist
The Atronach
Spellsword
Sorcerer
Pilgrim
The Lady
Knight
Healer
Agent
The Lord
Warrior
Battlemage
Archer
The Lover
Captain
Shaman
Bard
The Ritual
Crusader
Priest
Druid
The Shadow
Scout
Nightblade
Assassin
The Steed
Monk
Mystic
Acrobat
The Tower
Barbarian
Witchhunter
Thief

For example, a Warrior can take class abilities associated with the Warrior and the Lord. If the warrior is born under the Steed, he would also have the ability to learn Steed abilities. Note you can multiclass to gain access to new abilities.

Yes, I know the Serpent is not on this table, and for good reason. Because it is an Aberrant sign, it has it's own set of abilities that are only achieved through a complex ritual, or a less complex ritual if you were born under the Serpent.

As of right now, I'm trying to come up with the ability lists for each sign, which is extraordinarily difficult as abilities under each sign must be abilities that would be common to the class under that sign. Here is what I have so far. If you think of something that I could add to a specific list, please post it. Also keep in mind that these tables are unfinished, so ignore the blank spaces. Enjoy!
