Perhaps an "Unfinished and Speculative" section for classes that (A) aren't complete and/or (B) use uncertain sources/roles/mechanics/etc.? As Belladonna isn't quite satisfied with her class (and has a few just-for-laughs abilities in there) the Bruiser could go there, with the outlines of the Vampire Lord Path--along with any Martial Controllers, should they show up--until and unless they're fleshed out completely.

Thoughts?


Excellent compromise.

I don't especially care for coining new power sources either because those are subject to an equal amount of bickering -- take "Tech" or "Ki," for example. Just think of all the threads dedicated to bickering over whether those two have a place in the game.


Hmm. If somebody wants to bicker, they'll find something to bicker about.

I don't want to stifle creativity for the sake of "getting along".

That's why we're going with "speculative" section--it doesn't say "That's a stupid idea!" to those wanting to make new sources, while letting people know that they aren't official.

------------------------

On a related note, would people appreciate it if I did something to denote role and source in the class links--color code, extra letters, whatever--to help people find, say, another Arcane Controller when they want it?

If you wanted to "Color Code" based on Source, I would say
Martial - Brown
Arcane - Red
Divine - Blue

If you wanted to denote role, you could simply make headers saying "Defender" or whatever with the classes of that role below it.

As for Paths and things, I would say use the same color code, but have after the Path name, "(Cleric)" or whatever class the path is applicable for.

That's mostly what I was thinking, though I was leaning towards orange for Arcane after that one R&C eladrin wizard picture. After PHB2 comes out, what do you think about Psi = violet, Primal = green, Shadow = dark gray?

That's what I was thinking of for the roles as well. I don't know if I want to put classes down specifically, however; Paths have been said to appeal to multiple classes, and you can take Training feats to count as that class, so I wouldn't want someone to see a class name that looks interesting and then think "Oh, it's only for clerics; I'll pass" and miss out on something fun.

Okay, everything is color-coded and sorted by role.
