My Character Class Triangles

These are the diagrams I originally made to understand the professions in Ultima 3, and later found that can be applied to any role-playing video game.

Legend:

• Top: characters with no magic powers;
• Bottom: characters with great magic powers;
• Left: characters with healing magic ("white");
• Right: characters with offensive magic ("black").

Ultima 3: Exodus

Dragon Quest 3: ...And thus into Legend

Final Fantasy 7 (limit breaks diagram)

Inverted Character Class Triangles

In some video games there is no distinction between "black mages" and "white mages", therefore a slightly different approach would be more useful.

Legend:

• Top: characters with limited magic powers;
• Bottom: characters with great magic powers;
• Left: characters with great strength;
• Right: characters with great dexterity.
