Template:HeroSubClassDef

A named prestige class — Swashbuckler, Paragon, Grand Inquisitor, Ascendant, etc. — that a hero unlocks by hitting **5 specific skill thresholds**. 24 rows total: 4 per faction × 6 factions, split 2 might + 2 magic per faction.

The bot emits each sub-class at Data:HeroSubClass/<id> carrying:

1. {{HeroSubClassDef | id=… | name=… | desc=… | activation_skill_1_sid=… | …}} — main row with the 5 activation thresholds inline.
2. {{TranslationDef | type=hero_sub_class | target_id=<id> | …}} — name/description translations (per D-026).
3. N × {{HeroSubClassBonus | sub_class_id=<id> | ordinal=N | …}} — the unlocked passive bonuses (~2 per sub-class, 46 total).

Field notes

• id matches the L10n SID prefix (e.g. sub_class_human_might_1 → "Swashbuckler").
• name_sid / desc_sid point at <id>_name / <id>_desc. Full 16-language coverage.
• name / desc carry the resolved English text inline. Translations live on the {{TranslationDef | type=hero_sub_class}} row.
• Activation conditions are joined by AND — the hero must hit all 5 skill thresholds to unlock the sub-class.
• Per-faction-class matchup: every (faction × class_type) cell has exactly 2 sub-classes. Looking up "what sub-classes are available to a magic Demon hero?" → WHERE faction='demon' AND class_type='magic' → 2 rows (Progenitor, Lord of Chaos).

Related tables

• Hero — joins via Hero.faction = HeroSubClass.faction AND Hero.class_type = HeroSubClass.class_type. Each hero qualifies for the 2 sub-classes in their faction × class_type cell.
• HeroClass — same join; HeroSubClass is the prestige progression on top of the broader HeroClass.
• HeroSubClassBonus — joined on id = sub_class_id (1:N).

SkillDef — (future table; joined on activation_skill_<N>_sid)*.

• TranslationDef — one row per sub-class with type=hero_sub_class.
