Understand this choiceThis source describes fourteen base classes in Pathfinder: Kingmaker, covering broad combat, support, spellcasting, companion, and skill roles. It says class determines a character’s abilities, attributes, and development as levels increase, and notes that some archetypes have level requirements. The records below summarize only the specific functions stated in the retrieved Kingmaker class passage. They are not detailed progression entries: the source generally omits named feats and spells, numerical effects, prerequisites, and level-by-level changes. Steam metadata establishes the game’s identity, while the other retrieved guides concern different games or editions and are excluded from the class descriptions.
