You start at 1st Rank in Fabled Lands I. By completing "epic" quests or "class" quests (or meeting legendary characters), you have the chance to go up in Rank.

You will be told during the course of your adventures when you are entitled to advance in Rank. Characters of higher Rank are tougher, luckier and generally better able to deal with trouble.
