 | | For example, in Dungeons and Dragons, a character's class might be Rogue or Thief, but his occupation could be a burglar, scout, treasure hunter, pirate, adventurer, or any number of other livelihoods based on the class's specific skills and abilities. |
 | | In the original (pre-Advanced) Dungeons and Dragons, non-human characters' race was their class; in later versions of the game, demi-humans and other non-human characters were treated just like humans in that their race and their class were separate. |
 | | In the Dungeons and Dragons fantasy role-playing game, gnomes are a humanoid race, and are one of the core races available for play as player characters. |
