Editing Classes (section)

===Losing Classes and Levels:===
Classes can be removed and given. It can be done by a [King] or other [Ruler]-type class.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/01/27/4-06-km/ Chapter 4.06 KM]</ref> A notable class removal and change was when [Emperor] Laken removed Prost's [Farmer], [Builder], and [Trader] classes by making him a [Steward].<ref>{{VERef|4.20 E}}</ref> [Slavers] are also able to remove the [Slave] class from legally emancipated slaves.<ref>{{VERef|10.11 H}}</ref>

It is possible to lose a class, if one no longer qualify for it or does something that goes against the class. For example the [Hero] class can be lost if the person doesn't act like one, as this class is reliant on public perception and knowing what made one lose it can be difficult.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/04/25/1-00-c/ Chapter 1.00 C]</ref> Lyonette briefly lost her [Princess] class due to not acting like one while working at The Wandering Inn, though it was restored after she revaluated what a [Princess] was.<ref>{{VERef|5.26 L}}</ref>  

A [King] that no longer consider himself a [King], stops acting as a [King] and people stop thinking about him as a [King], can lose the class with all the skills associated with it.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/09/29/5-24-l/ Chapter 5.24 L]</ref> If one were to again qualify for the class one can regain the lost levels and skills.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/10/06/5-26-l/ Chapter 5.26 L]</ref>

It is also possible to experience a class change in place of losing of a class. A [King] who abdicates his throne loses his [King] class, but can gain a [Former King]-type of class. This change can also result in the loss of certain Skills.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/04/30/6-12-k/ Chapter 6.12 K]</ref>

||Revival|| mechanics are another way to lose levels. In most cases, resurrection costs ten levels overall.<ref name=":1" />

Finally, if a class advances to a far superior one such as [Dragonslayer], it may have its level decrease by about ten, being an opportunity to gain a better capstone, and there is no evidence that this decrease in levels also removes any Skills unlike the other reasons to lose levels.<ref name=":1" /><ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/10/28/9-64-bh/ Chapter 9.64 BH]</ref>

====Horror Ranks====
[[Horror Ranks]] are classes which may be gained by doing the most terrible of deeds. They cannot be earned any other way. They are not real classes either, as they are born of despair and filth.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/01/27/4-06-km/ Chapter 4.06 KM]</ref> 

It is also possible to lose a class and its skills by obtaining and leveling up a Horror Rank. While one does not lose their class and skills from the start, as the Horror Rank increases in level, one's class levels will decrease and skills will be lost,<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/09/27/3-17-t/ Chapter 3.17 T]</ref> until the class is completely lost. It is currently unknown if losing the Horror Ranks will restore one's class levels and skills, or not.
