Initial Party Creation
There are many classes to choose from and each has something to offer. Spell casters have the unique ability to change class and there are 4 distinct Spell caster classes each with a unique spell book.

Races define the range of values possible when rolling dice for attributes. Some Races are restricted from becoming some Classes.

Suggested party
The front 4 are the main melee combatants and it is ideal if they have a +1 or +2 bonus for STR, CON, DEX, and also a high bonus ToHit and Hit Points. Make sure your spell casters have high Spell Points, INT and DEX. You can leave a slot open and only create 6 characters. The open spot is for summoned creatures or creatures that join your party. I decided to make a party of 7 so that I can have more spell power. I decided against having a lock picker in favor of Trap Zap which only costs 2 spell points.
