Gods
Like in Greek and Roman legends, the ancient gods all appear in human form. Despite the fact that many Gods have birth myths attributed to them, none of them ever age. No sicknesses affect them, and there are precious few ways to wound a god. They have the ability to conceal themselves from human beings, they can transport themselves anywhere in the blink of an eye, and they are able to speak through people without their knowledge. Each god possesses a distinct appearance, descends from his or her own genealogy, pursues differing interests, has a certain area of expertise, and is governed by a unique personality.
Though there is quite a wide variety of gods, the island named Royaume des Cieux has become the heavenly kingdom in which they are said to live.

Nobles - lords, ladies, emperors, counts, dukes, scholars, etc.
Nobility refers to those who were "known" or "notable" and is applied to the highest social class in pre-modern societies. The nobility of a person might be either inherited or earned. Nobility in its most general and strict sense is an acknowledged preeminence that is hereditary, i.e., legitimate descendants (or all male descendants, in some societies) of nobles are nobles, unless explicitly stripped of the privilege. Nobles typically commanded resources, such as food, money, or labor, from common members or nobles of lower rank of their societies, and could exercise religious or political power over them.
Warriors - assassins, archers, swordsmen, knights, foot soldiers, etc.
A warrior is a person habitually engaged in war and/or skilled in the waging of war. They're paid money, land or food for engaging in military campaigns and follow a specific code of behavior -- much like chivalry -- to ensure that the warrior class is not dangerous to the rest of the society.
Merchants, Artisans, Farmers and Peasants
The working class is a social class often contrasted with middle class and upper class in terms of the nature of work undertaken (manual labor or skilled) and the limited access to capital, education, and land resources. People in this class often rely on payment for their labour to survive.
