Characters in Isekai

This article discusses backgrounds, races, and classes that can be used to create a character in the world of Isekai. While most options and combinations are completely valid there are a few that are locked to a certain race or circumstance. Additionally, the idea of multiclassing has limitations. When seeking to create a character give thought to the story that makes them into the person they are today, those that wish to have multiple classes should realize that actual devices in the world must be the sources of obtaining those classes.   For instance, if you want to take a level in Fighter and you are currently a Warlock or a Wizard then you should seek to find a martial teacher to justify the class change. Inversely if you are a Rogue and want to delve into secrets of the arcane, you will need a method of doing so. Some classes are completely incompatible in Isekai, for instance, if you are a Cleric in service of a specific god and you wish to become a Warlock the patron must be one that aligns with your god or risk losing your divine given powers.   The story that is being told should always be the focal point and the vehicle for multiclassing, not the other way around. Be sure to discuss any end goals that you have in the way of mechanics so you understand the implications and ambitions that you will need to pursue to make a specific and diversely disciplined character.
