Editing Numenera (section)

==Types==
The "Noun" is the easiest to explain. They are your [[class]].
:'''Glaives''' are fighting men and women of all sorts.
:'''Nanos''' are techno-wizards with "spells" that can achieve various effects.
:'''Jacks''' are [[skillmonkeys]] who can be built to do a bit of either. Notably, they have a "flex skill" that they can pick each day to gain automatic training in one area.
Later expansions added more classes when they realized that the Jacks who were supposed to be [[Rogue]]s didn't do their jobs too well and often ended up being a multiclass Fighter/Wizard instead.
:'''Arkai''' are bard/Face characters who rock social interactions and specialize in leadership.
:'''Delves''' are investigators and explorers, generally better at being true Rogues than Jacks are. 
:'''Wrights''' are engineers who can craft things out of bits and bobs of the previous Worlds called "iotum".
All of them pick up different tricks as they increase in level. Naturally, this being a [[Monte Cook]] game, [[CoDzilla| high-level glaives get a few okay tricks to be marginally better fighters, while high-level nanos get the ability to stop time or throw literal mountains with their minds]].
