[@Letter Bee][@Gelatinous Cube] Let's not forget that there will be a pay to win function. It will be like Diablo Immortal. 

Joking aside. I wanted to know from an RP perspective. Which style would you like to play this from. Originally the Shards are supposed to give the players power based on an aspect. Baal had corrupted the worldstone and that is why it was destroyed. At this point I may just scrap the traditional class/race limitations of the Diablo world. However, gaining powers from the stones akin to a class would still be open. 

Furthermore, if possible I would like for all the characters to know one another somehow. This may not be possible for all characters which is understandable. There will be an infernal and purity system based on the powers and how they are used. Mainly this may or may not be something I keep track of. Depends on if the players are all having fun and don't mind things going a specific way. Count Purity as a type of Angelic corruption and infernal is a type of Demon/devil corruption. 

Normally players start at level 1 in the games. However, without classes and such I'm unsure how to scale the experience. Then again an RP can be a totally different beast. I'm open to suggestions. If none are "balanced" enough I may just scrap exp all together and make it more of an item based system. Please note that some rare items may be better than a legendary. lol D2 stuff.
