About

What if you could choose the classes of force members as they joined? After some brainstorming, I figured it out and put together what became Horizons. I figured this would be something that would offer tons of enjoyment for those that have always wanted to choose classes for their team. To make this work, there is a limited cast, out of the 12 members, 9 are given the option of choosing a class upon joining.
