Majesty 2 Developer Diary #1

An unnamed member of the Majesty 2 development team discusses the reasons behind changing hero genders in the game’s first developer diary on Gamers Daily News.

In Majesty 2, Paladins are so-to-speak (high-grade Warriors), and it would be more than a little worrying if after the initiation rite we got a female Paladin. That would be one heck of an initiation, eh?

By the way, here’s a list of the other classes in Majesty 2 that can serve as the base class for Templar heroes:

Rangers can become Archers of Helia (in the Temple to Helia) or Beastmasters (in the Temple to Fervus). Warriors can serve Dauros (and become Paladins) or Krolm, becoming then Blademasters after the initiation rite. Clerics can become Light Priestesses of Agrela or Dark Sisters of Krypta.

Note that after certain initiation rites, the hero can dramatically change appearance. For example, after the rite of dedication to the Sun in the Temple to Helia, the skin of the Ranger future Archer of Helia becomes darker, his hair bleached white, and his eyes become blue-green and slightly transparent, the sign of Helia’s gift of far-sight (so he can pick out his target at a great distance).
