The world governments try to keep organized civilization intact. All the while, the various advanced steampunk societies of the world are fighting wars and chipping away at each others infrastructure. In every city, every town, warships can be seen in the air, and the rumbling of subterranean tanks can be heard. You are a mercenary who is hired by one of the nations, known as "Gozara" to all, and you are put in a squadron of other mercenaries. As you get shipped off to the front line in a subterranean tank, one of your allies says that the nation you're fighting, Udiston, has started deploying monsters to the battlefield. You're appalled at this, but before you have a chance to reply, your tank bursts out of the ground, and you rush to the battlefield.
There are five classes in Dystopia RPG. (Note: these are the starting stats, and can be changed by leveling up, equipping new equipment, and things of that nature.)
Footsoldier
Footsoldiers are the default class. They have a good balance between offense and defense, and have medium health.

Close Combat
Close Combat units are outfitted with powerful magic and attacks. They are considered expendable, so they have only the most basic MP training.
Skills: Blaze (chars an enemy with a flamethrower blast, does double damage, costs 6 MP) Plasmid Blast (hits an enemy with an energy blast, does triple damage, costs 8 MP)
As you level up a class, you will learn new skills, but some skills are weapon-exclusive. Also, your MP and HP will go up. In addition, you will be able to increase either your attack or defense permanently by one point. Here is a link to the Dystopia RPG website.
@burnt: congrats! Sanctus was easy for me, just a matter of table-topping and then going crazy on Nero's b attack with the demon arm thing. . .whatever it's called :P ------------- You go even deeper into the temple. All that there are here are animals, and sunlight shines through small cracks in the ceiling. You notice a very large, glowing purple mass at the bottom. What do you do?
You walk forward slowly, and your strange tablets start to glow. You hear a voice: This is the site that binds the life to the land. These tablets are records of our achievements. Long ago, the land was dying. So we performed a ceremony to give life to all of the land. This is the central concentration of that energy. If it is lost, then all of the world will go into Dystopia. . . ." --------------- What do you do? (You can do anything in this chamber that any human could do now.)
You put the tablet into the glowing mass, and the mass revitalizes you. You feel refreshed. Your vision fluctuates, and the tablet runes rearrange into plain Gozaran: "Carry with safety,from those who would seek to drink your soul." Connect the dots?
