About this class
The Fated is a person chosen by fate, destiny, or what-have-you, to go out in the world to take on a specific calling. Fate tends to imbue the Fated with power in order to tackle the difficulties. Yet it is not an easy road to walk. The path is filled with many challenges, and it takes someone with a real drive, cunning, and strength to make it though. However, Fated people are determined to fight, and move forward. They intend to prove that fate made the right choice in trusting them. But one cannot walk through life on fate alone. And as much as facing down monsters, and challenges is part of a journey, so is making connections that last a lifetime.
