Novelist

 is one of the many subclasses in Elder Tale.

Overview
A subclass that represents all those who write books and other creative works, including novels or stage plays (so the term here also includes playwrights). A Novelist can create blank books or notebooks, write in them and turn them into their own book. Like the paintings from the Painter subclass, the book is an art-based item that can be sold, its price determined by the level of the Novelist, or displayed in guild halls as furniture.

Earthling Novelists are as rare as Earthling Painter. The profession is treated with the same regards as the Scholar, Scribe or Civil Servant due to the actual skills needed in reading and writing. Because it is difficult to live from their books alone, some assist Scholars and higher Novelists while writing their own work on the side.
