"AAAAAW SHIT!" The machine releases the wincing HugoLuman. "Well, that was painful. Let's see... Ranger? Well, that's a bit generic. That could be anything from shooty elf guy to cowboy. Special ability says 'Danger Sense.' What do you guys think?"

(The Dais (now, originally didn't exist, but oh well, new room feature) dispenses a data pad when you stand on the central, circular platform between the semicircular one everyone wakes up on, and the one with the door out (bridges connecting them to the two over 1ft deep water 1ft below the level of the platforms), that goes on your non dominant hand's forearm.  It sends a jolt through you that assesses you and your memories, and gives two options: a recommended class based on the weapon you currently have (knowledge of which was gained from your memory), or you can go through a search function to find the class you want that works through either text input or categories that become more and more specific based on your choices at previous levels.  That device is going to remain there, reporting specific location of injuries, abilities of your class, etc. for the rest of the game.)

(No, it's more along the lines of an ever branching tree you would go through, starting with Ranged/Melee, then progressing to the Range/Reach classification of the weapon, and further on.  Though it's for fluff only.  Class you have your character be could range from something frequently used (ex. my sniper class) or something barely seen, if at all (ex. whatever you would call someone who would summon creatures/use spells based off of a deck of cards).  Then you would start with one ability (in the case of the Sniper, the passive Improved Accuracy, or in the case of the Card Summoner, the active Level 1 Cards, which would allow use of (in the case of an MTG) summoning of a 1 mana creature or use a 1 mana spell.  Each Level you increase you would choose between 1 active and 1 passive ability to add to the list of abilities you have.  Just to clarify: Passive means it is always there and you don't have to do anything to activate it, and Active means it is not always there, and you have to activate it to do its effect.)

Cado ends up choosing a sniper/stealth hybrid, falling off the dias in shock. He now has a forest camo jacket on over his T-shirt, and his bow turned into a 70 draw weight compound bow!

"What... the... heck...?"
Cado is really really confused.

Kyle and the clone drag Cado to the door and begin getting ready to shove him in.

"Kyle leave me alone! GEEZ!" Cado tries to stand on his own two feet in annoyance.

(Okay, there's no change in clothing and you don't get a brand new weapon.  You're just assigning a classification of abilities you're gaining, nothing more.)

"Cut it out you-...two...hold off the player throwing until everyone has a class."

"Well, danger sense sounds good, so I'll go with this."

"So what's the name of what you chose?"
