Although each has its own strengths and weaknesses, some are definitely easier than others, at least to begin with. The best backgrounds for a beginner are probably Gladiators and Berserkers; if you really want to play a magician, try a Conjurer or a Hedge Wizard. However, not all species are equally well suited for all backgrounds. After you have selected a species, the background selection menu will show backgrounds generally considered to be more accessible for a species in a brighter colour. Each background starts out with a different set of skills and items, but jL \from there you can shape them as you will. Note that due to peculiarities of size or body shape, some species-background combinations start with a different inventory than described here.

Purple Draconiansare highly adapted to all spellcasting in general, and to hexes in  particular. They are a bit better at evoking things than most other  Draconians. They can breathe dispelling energy which strips those it hits  of enchantments and impairs their spellcasting. They are stronger-willed  than other draconians, and later on, they gain resistance to both  external mana draining and to enchantment stripping. Pale Draconians  are better at air and fire magic, and have no deficiencies in other  schools. They breathe sight-obscuring steam and, like their Purplecousins, have a slight advantage at Evocations. j ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2.LIST OF CHARACTER BACKGROUNDS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In your quest, you play as one of a large number of different types of j 4characters.

Warrior backgrounds =================== jV Warriors are experienced at using physical weapons and defending themselves. Fighters  Fighters usually start with a good weapon of their choice, a suit  medium armour, a shield, and two potions of might. GladiatorsjJ The Gladiator has been trained to fight in the ring. They start with agood weapon of their choice, light armour, headgear and some throwingweapons and nets. j MonksMonks have a head start with the divine. They start with only a simpleweapon of their choice, a potion of divine ambrosia, a robe, and an orbof light to guide them. However, when they worship a god for the firsttime, their spiritual training gives them a piety boost. HuntersThe Hunter is a type of fighter who specialises in missile weapons. AHunter starts with a shortbow, a scroll of butterflies, and a set ofj# leathers. BrigandsA Brigand is a shady character who is especially good at killing, usingdaggers or darts. They start with a dagger, a robe and cloak, poisoneddarts, and a few deadly and rare curare darts. Zealot backgroundsj _k================== Zealots start the game already worshipping a god.j|j"}kBerserkersBerserkers are hardy warriors who worship Trog the Wrathful, from whomthey get the power to go berserk (as well as a number of other powers,should they prove worthy), but who forbids the use of spell magic. Theyenter the Dungeon with a weapon of their choice, and dressed in animalskins.jZealots start the game already worshipping a god.

Theyenter the Dungeon with a weapon of their choice, and dressed in animalskins. Chaos KnightsThe Chaos Knight is a plaything of Xom, subject to the god's constantlyjchanging moods. Xom is a very unpredictable (and possibly psychotic)entity who rewards or punishes according to whim. They begin with a  lightly enchanted leather armour, a simple weapon of their choice, and a  scroll of butterflies. Cinder AcolytesCinder Acolytes serve Ignis, the Dying Flame, who grants them incredible  power over fire... but there is only so much fire left to draw on, andonce it burns out, acolytes may need to abandon Ignis. They start with arobe, a choice of flaming weapons, and the spell Scorch. Adventurer backgrounds ======================j  jbpower over fire... but there is only so much fire left to draw on, and  once it burns out, acolytes may need to abandon Ignis. They start with arobe, a choice of flaming weapons, and the spell Scorch. Adventurer backgrounds ====================== Adventurers have varied and idiosyncratic skills that they have picked up in their travels. ArtificersArtificers have built, bought or burgled an assortment of magic wands tohelp them through the early Dungeon. Wands have a limited number of uses,though, so they'll want to upgrade from their club ASAP. ShapeshiftersShapeshifters use talismans to shift their body into different forms,granting them uncanny power but making them unable to use some items.They enter the dungeon with two talismans, some flux baubles, and apotion of lignification. Wanderers  Wanderers are "jacks-of-all-trades, masters of none". They start the gamewith a random assortment of skills, items, and maybe spells.jX^ GDelversDelvers have, through some mishap, found themselves several floors belowthe surface of the Dungeon. They're equipped with a wide variety ofmagical escape tools, and are well advised to use them to travel toearlier dungeon floors as quickly as possible. j Warrior-mage backgrounds ======================== Warrior mages begin the game with a mix of physical combat and magicja0skills, though usually excel at neither. They start with a library of spells and (usually) some way of defending themselves. WarpersWarpers specialise in translocation magic, and are experts in travellinglong distances and positioning themselves precisely and use this to theiradvantage in melee or missile combat. They start with a scroll ofblinking, a selection of translocation spells, some disjunction darts, asimple weapon of their choice, and leather armour. HexslingerjS Hexslingers use debilitating spells to assist their ranged attacks. Theybegin the game with a sling, some spells to support its use, a scroll ofpoison to keep foes at a distance, and a robe.jc HexslingerHexslingers use debilitating spells to assist their ranged attacks. Theybegin the game with a sling, some spells to support its use, a scroll ofpoison to keep foes at a distance, and a rob Enchanters  The Enchanter specialises in the subtle art of hexes. Instead of directlydamaging foes, hexes disable and debilitate them, allowing the Enchanter  to finish the helpless creatures in combat. The Enchanter begins with a  lightly enchanted dagger, a robe, potions of invisibility, and a  selection of hexes. ReaverReavers have an assortment of powerful, but highly situational,conjurations to draw upon when their skill in melee is insufficient. Theystart with a simple weapon of their choice and leather armour. Mage backgrounds ================ A mage is not an available character background by itself, but a type of background, encompassing Hedge Wizards, Conjurers, Summoners, Necromancers, Forgewrights, various Elementalists and Alchemists. Mages are the best atłjusing magic. Among other things, they start with a robe, a potion of magic, and spells which should see them through the first several levels of the Dungeon.
