There are total of seven playable classes, these determine stats, equipment and gameplay mechanics depending on which one you choose.

Soldier – By blocking enemy attacks, this class will be awarded soul energy.
Assassin – Dodging your foes will gain you soul energy.
Wizard – Healing will award soul energy.
Sentinel – This class can equip weapons and shields with half the required stats, parrying will award the player with soul energy.
