Alpha 1.1
In the game, powers are grouped into Archetypes, each with distinct themes and complementary abilities. There are 25 Archetypes, allowing players to mix and match powers from different categories to customize their characters. Each Archetype includes 10 unique powers, resulting in a total of 250 powers available in the game.
Players can combine powers from various Archetypes to create truly unique characters. Additionally, there are no restrictions on flavor. For example, if you want to build your character as a master of fire but are drawn to the Glacial Spear from the Frost Archetype, you can take it and creatively reimagine it as a Flaming Spear.
