Character Classpect Speculations

Huhuhuhu.. so apparently a few other people find the class + aspect system of that webcomic fascinating, so why not have a go at trying to determine what your character's classpect could be. THERE'S EVEN CUTE LIL OUTFITS FOR THEM. (Along with a billion other fan interpretations such as Street-tier and Fancy-tier so you can go look those up too if you're that interested...)

A classpect consists of a class (mythological role), and an aspect (an "element"), and goes in the format "X of Y". Here's another masterpost with specific breakdowns of how a class would work with an aspect.

If you're going to play it close to the roles of that webcomic's canon, your classpect is assigned to you in such a way such that the character will have to develop and mature[/b] in those ways. Meaning, it is your destiny, and you can actually be unconsciously following it without realizing it, or completely fail to match up to it, or even develop in the complete opposite direction (an inversion). Because classpects are "predetermined by fate" rather than chosen by the person, it can seem the entire opposite of what they are "good" at or could seem to be entirely unrelated to their current personality, and their character development arc will be learning and changing themselves to go in that direction. A caveat from the guide writer: "Keep in mind that while a title may cause a person to act in a certain manner, it does not prevent them from acting outside that role."

Note: Knights fight to defend and fight to protect others using their aspect, and princes seek to destroy. Rogues directly help others, whereas thieves directly help themselves first, and any benefits to their possible allies are a secondary effect rather than the primary goal. Bards are usually inactive in their aspect until a "perfectly right moment" in which they seem to go into a trace and let loose an uncomparable amount of power, which can either be the key to victory or THE defeating blow to the people around them.

So if you need an example, I think Eva would be a Maid of Hope [X]. Her most defining, core traits are her stubbornness and strong sense of will and determination. Her ability branches involve preparing her meister to push on by imbuing them with a temporarily enhanced state of mental and physical "toughness"/fortitude/stubbornness that delays feeling pain, which can either work to their advantage or severe disadvantage, which hits up nicely all the main points of the Maid class.

Yuu Kaneko could be a Prince of Blood, which is pretty fcking terrifying tbh.

You are an evil genius and I love you for that.

I'm thinking that August would be a Page of Hope. The masterpost is fairly vague as to what exactly that entails, but based on the summation and a little consideration, I'd imagine it fits him to a tee. If a Page is one who becomes their aspect and draws power from that, then August would certainly be one who gains power from his innate, implacable sense of hope and faith. He's all about hope as a concept, be it drawn from others or himself, and instilling a sense of hope in others. His Soul Wavelength, by definition, grants the power of hope and courage to others - he literally radiates the stuff. By virtue of being paired with Ashley, somebody who is physically weak but really wants to be strong and useful, he gains strength by being partners with somebody who's able to realise their potential through his hope. He can be seen as a catalyst by which others are able to become stronger and, in turn, more hopeful.

Sophie would be a Knight of Rage. This one kinda speaks for itself. She's little, but she's hella angry at you and everything you stand for for no apparent reason and will eff your ess up through sheer, unbridled rage. And she loves that.

Will edit later as appropriate.
