Barbarian as a class is kinda daft, but in any event, its easily solved by the GM asking "so what does your barbarian do ?"
Magistus said:But define exactly what an adventurer is? An adventurer is whatever you make of it, so and adventurer can be a Wizard, or a hunter, or whatever.
And that's the thing. RQM seems to ssume that everyone is an adventurer.
Maybe I don't want to be an adventurer. Maybe I want to be a Wizard, or a Soldier, or a Hunter or some other single-occupation person.
So, a profession can equally well be something that I do as well as something that I did.
OK, so it isn't quite the same as a Character Class, but it is pretty close.
"Hello, what do you do?" "I'm a wizard" is far better than "Hello, what do you do?" "I used to be a wizard but now I'm an adventurer".
It seems as though Adventurer is the new super-profession.

If you could post the Character Classes and their Skills/Abilities, or email them to me then I'll have a go at converting the Classes to a RQy framework.

When camped out in the Forgotten Ruins of Rinqarador, he sets up a portable bar and starts pouring drinks for the other adventurers.
