The Eternity TTRPG caster classes are those that use pure magical powers in and out of battle, with very little or no physical aptitude. Casters are quite rare, compared to the general population, and magical powers are highly valued. Casters are not more "powerful" than martial classes, but (for most casters) their versatility of spells brings them acclaim wherever they go.
All classes have special "roleplay powers" that allow that class to do unique feats without the need for rolling. For martial classes (and some spell-fighter) roleplay powers, roleplay powers are the same as getting automatic successes on skill or knowledge checks.
For caster classes, roleplay powers take a bit broader of a role, as they enable you to simply "do" a wider variety of things than any martial class could. The roleplay powers for caster classes is what makes them truly special compared to other classes.
Caster classes thrive on Faith - magical hit chance - (and Strike Bonus - physical hit chance - is not valuable). Casters may choose to fight from melee range (when equipped with a scythe or similar weapon), though most fight from a distance, making Range+ extremely important.
However, caster classes do tend to be susceptible to martial classes, whether from melee or ranged distances, so having some points in defenses (Dodge, Will, and Resilience) can be very important.
