Bad Examples of character class and race combinations: A stone Golum who is a bard... that's just downright stupid anyway... Ok um A Human Ranger in this world might be able to make it on an airship, but should there be a battle between two airships, don't expect to get very far unless you have some great climbing feats, swinging from ropes too. Other than that you'll be stuck launching arrows and firing the airships cannons.

Cannons: Cannons do use smoke powder when one ship is waring with another, thought they are highly inacurate, Dwarves and gnomes score a +5 dex check when using cannons, while humans and elves usually get a -1 (unless you put cannon usage as a feat)

Specialty Air Feats:

Cannon Foddering, Use of Exotic Explosives, Swinging From Ropes, Jump*, No Fear of Heights, Volcano**, Boomerang** Improved Boomerang to Hit Multiple Oponents**, Improved Volcano (Multiple Peircing)**, Air Moving, Fall Faster, Fall Slower, Parachute, Sail AirShips, And Air Combat Finesse.

The names say it all... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Specialty Classes:

Fighters:

Dragoons, Dragoons are fighters with all normal fiter feats who specialize in Spears (lances preferably) and Swords only, no bows, staves, or any other type of object is known to them as a weapon. They have a special feat which allows them to leap 30 leagues x their Level distance in any direction and come down onto an oponent in combat very hard. They cannot be injured from any fall, neither can what they're wearing. The dragoons primary feat is Jump*, though they also develop Boomerang Sword**, Air Moving, Volcano**, faster falling, slower falling and Bahamut's Wish***

Kenpo Fighter: An exotic fighter who wears only light armor who is Able to use nothing but a stick of wood. With any splintered stick they will be able to break metal, Steel, Concrete, cobble, Flesh, Bone, you name it they are able to make the Wood Stronger than any substance through a special life-learned technique which combines Kote and Doh with Kenpo fencing.

Air Ship Captains: These are shwashbuclers who are mostly fighters who deal with Schimitars and Shortswords, they automatically have the ability to pilot and command the crew of an airship.

Shinobi of the wind: These are ninja's who are able to move along with the currents of wind, their feats are similar to teleporation spells, though they also include some feats which allow them to ride on air currents, they mostly develop air moving and air walking naturally. They don't gain slow falling naturally but quickened faling is gained. They also specialize in only exotic weapons like Katanas, Kamas, and Makupuken(Throwing Stars)

Mages:

Mage of the Air: This is a mage who deals in all manners of flight and elemental air spells. (there are also similar Air Sorcerers and Bards of the wind)

Sorcerers of the wind: Not really mages, but they are alot like wind mages, just sorcerers who have a slew of multiple flight spells like highway, the ability to transport a group of people anywhere through the air on a magically formed block of solid ground if necessary.

Bards:

Bards of the wind: These are bards who specialize in the wind song, a song which allows them to controll the wind as well as have it blow them from place to place without setting foot on solid ground, they need to have alot of dexterity to be able to play and be pushed around however, though charisma, like all other bards, is their leading stat.

Egyptian Classes:

There are some followers of egyptian gods who in fantasy are capable of flight, if you can get creative and make up things like those I don't see how Foreign air dominion powers couldn't be introduced as well

Get Creative: This is your time to just make up a character who'm youd consider suitable and fit for air combat, so have a ball with it, and then we'll see how well they play out in a storyline.

*Jump is a Dragoon-Only Feat, it is special to the Dragon Knight Fighter Class, once a dragoon falls onto a target he strikes them with 4 times whatever damage that weapon he is using deals

** Volcano and Boomerang are Spear and Sword Feats for Dragoons or Fighters with an STR over 21 and an int over 12. This is the ability to chuck a sword like a boomerang and have it come back to you, the Volcano feat is tied in with the dragoon jump, once a dragoon falls onto a target he strikes them with 4 times whatever damage that weapon he is using deals, volcanoing allows that dragoon to do 4 peircing damage strikes to "Shishkabob" his oponent and then Throw them at another.

*** This is a feat only obtained by a dragoon at level 20, a Magical dragon will come to them and grant them a single item of their choice: 1 Bahamut Scale Male with Wings for Flight (armor stats are a secret) 2: Bahamut's Sword (Specialty Item with Secret Stats) 3: Bahamut's Fortitude (Boosts all Stats and allows the character to Begin epic leveling)
