Among the “lost Arnesonian classes” are the Merchant and Sage which I both like and the merchant, at least, is an integral PC class in the 2e #DarkSun setting by Tim Brown and Troy Denning. It and the Sage, also appear in Tim’s “spiritual successor”, the #DragonKingsProject.
The “sage” could also be a way of introducing more contemporary fiction archetypes and factions into fantasy settings, e.g. #TheLibrarian(s), #Buffy, #Warehouse13, #IndianaJones, etc.. #DnD #ttrpg
