"Classes" or Character Types

Ok, so we know there's three types of characters: Vigilantes, Mutants, and Aliens. How does this affect gameplay? The first is what the character can learn or have as an attribute. For example, Mutants and Aliens can have Powers but Vigilantes cannot. Vigilantes have a greater access to Skills but Aliens have greater access to Abilities.
This extends into gaining levels (Which is slightly different in BoaH, but I'll delve into that later). All heroes gain more character points to spend when they level. These points can be used to upgrade or purchase new Skills (All character types), Upgrade or Purchase new Abilities (Aliens and Mutants only), or upgrade or purchase new [i[Powers[/i] (Mutants only). Another option (Mostly for Vigilante type heroes, though available to all character types) is to trade in the character points to increase your Income, thus giving you greater access to new 'gadgets'.
