GemStone4 has several different groups of classes (or professions):
*[[Pure]] spellcasters who rely almost entirely on magic;
*[[Semi]] spellcasters who can divide their attentions between physical arms and magic, and can lean more towards one or the other with fair facility; and
*[[Square]] professions who know essentially nothing about magic, but are very strong with physcial arms.

Psssst, there is no pure arms user realm anymore. Maybe this little diagram would help.

Full Circles ---------------------- Squares
Wizards        Bards                Fighters 
Clerics               Rangers    Theives 
Empaths
Sorcerers 

Since that time, the profession of Paladin--another Semi--has been added, and they tend to be even more physically inclined than Rangers. A more up-to-date chart may look something like:

Full Circles ---------------------- Squares
Wizards        Bards                Fighters 
Clerics               Rangers    Theives 
Empaths                     Paladins
Sorcerers
