Character builds are assisted by the selection of a template, which is similar to a class but not nearly as restrictive. Skills are divided into several functional areas and depend upon attributes and training. A number of skills are unique to the setting. While the "Five Star Stories World" section of the site does detail the setting to a considerable degree, the very-long-running manga series upon which the RPG is based clearly will provide much more background for interested gamers (links and resources are provided on the site).
