# Character class system

At the beginning of the game, players need to own at least 5 characters of 1 of the 5 systems below to be able to participate in the battle. To own the character, the player needs to buy a champion card in the developer's NFT store (limited opening sale) or another player's. Opening the Hero Card will randomly receive a male or female hero of 1 of 5 types and have a random number of stars from 1 to 5 stars. Players can start their fight immediately.
