This Memory Fading page is a stub. More information will be provided eventually. |
The classes of Memory Fading are following a much different path than the core classes, or even than those originally described on the Memory Fading website. There will be seven core classes, each of which can take a number of different paths. Depending on whether I go with 4E or stick with 3.5 will determine if each path is part of the overall class, or if the paths will be part of the paragon tier.--Ishmayl 21:47, 22 March 2008 (EDT)
