Everyone begins as a Novice and can progress into any of the four foundational roles currently implemented in the system:

• Warrior - Specializes in strength, protection, and overcoming physical challenges
• Mage - Masters knowledge, planning, and the management of household systems
• Thief - Excels in resource acquisition, efficiency, and stealth task completion
• Monk - Achieves balance through discipline, consistency, and supportive actions

After mastering a base class, characters can specialize further:

• Guardian - Focuses on home security and infrastructure maintenance
• Berserker - Channels focused energy into completing difficult tasks and challenges

• Sage - Shares knowledge and provides guidance to family members
• Sorcerer - Masters environmental systems and elemental controls of the home

• Rogue - Specializes in efficiently acquiring and managing resources
• Scout - Discovers new opportunities and adapts to changing situations

• Caretaker - Nurtures family members and supports emotional wellbeing
• Artisan - Creates physical items and improves living spaces

With experience in an intermediate role, characters can focus on highly specialized skills:

• Sentinel - Expert in home security, safety protocols, and emergency preparedness
• Engineer - Masters home systems, repairs, and infrastructure optimization

• Gladiator - Challenge crusher who excels at completing difficult or demanding tasks
• Ranger - Outdoor specialist who manages external home areas and exterior maintenance

• Mentor - Develops skills in other family members and provides coaching
• Researcher - Gathers and organizes information for family decision-making

• Elementalist - Masters control over home environment systems (temperature, lighting, etc.)
• Enchanter - Specializes in enhancing and improving existing household systems

• Procurer - Efficiently gathers resources through budgeting or bulk acquisition
• Merchant - Excels at inventory management and resource allocation

• Pathfinder - Identifies new opportunities, activities, and resources for the family
• Troubleshooter - Solves unusual problems and adapts to unexpected situations

• Healer - Focuses on family health, wellness routines, and care during illness
• Mediator - Specializes in conflict resolution and maintaining household harmony

• Fabricator - Creates functional household items and handles complex repairs
• Designer - Transforms spaces for beauty, comfort, and optimized functionality

By mastering two related advanced specializations, characters can unlock these powerful hybrid roles:

• Warden (Sentinel + Engineer) - Home fortress master with comprehensive protection skills
• Champion (Gladiator + Ranger) - Elite task completer who excels at difficult challenges inside and outside the home
• Vizier (Mentor + Researcher) - Wisdom keeper who both acquires knowledge and shares it effectively
• Archmage (Elementalist + Enchanter) - Master of home systems who can create perfect environmental conditions
• Supplier (Procurer + Merchant) - Resource network master ensuring the family never lacks necessities
• Explorer (Pathfinder + Troubleshooter) - Solution creator who identifies opportunities and overcomes obstacles
• Guardian Angel (Healer + Mediator) - Family wellbeing expert balancing physical and emotional health
• Architect (Fabricator + Designer) - Transforms living spaces with both function and beauty

The household job classes work together in a complementary ecosystem:

• Warriors protect what Monks maintain
• Mages plan what Thieves will acquire
• Guardians secure the spaces Artisans improve
• Berserkers tackle the challenges that Scouts identify
• Sages develop knowledge that Sorcerers implement
• Caretakers support family members while Rogues supply their physical needs

Each job class provides unique abilities that reflect its approach to household management:

• Base classes unlock foundational abilities accessible to all specializations
• Intermediate specializations provide focused abilities within their domain
• Advanced specializations grant powerful, specific abilities for their niche
• Prestige classes combine abilities from multiple domains for synergistic effects

As you gain experience points (XP) and level up within a job class, you unlock more powerful abilities that require different amounts of Magic Points (MP) to activate.

• Characters can switch between unlocked job classes to tackle different household challenges
• Secondary class abilities can be accessed at reduced effectiveness
• Some abilities from different classes can be combined for unique effects
• Family teams benefit from having diverse job classes represented
