Are the origin characters story better as a certain class/playstyle?
Onviously one like sebille is tailored to an assasin but the other ones I can't figure out as this is my first playthrough and I just got out of joy. Also after looking over the mods I've fallen inlove with Odinblades classes as they seem balanced and very aesthetically pleasing compared to base game, for the first run would mods be good or bad for the experience?

You can be 4 ZWEINHANDERs or 4 Assassins, it's doable. For first run you can also use mods as the game is meant to be a tad silly.

I have sebille as a warrior, fane as a wizard, red prince as an assasin, and the undead lizard female I am as a crossbow lady who I pretend is literally Zala (a story figure from the graveyard area).

I mean, class doesn't really affect the story at all. Not sure I get the question otherwise.

The differences are fairly small. Beast has slightly more Vitality and Dodge and make nominally him a better a tank, insofar as this game has tanks. Lohse, Ifan, and Fane have better Crit rates which makes them better as archers or thieves (or casters with Sacrificial Sortilage).

Other than persuasion.

I think they mean in the way that Sebille has some dialogue options where she uses rogue based threats, or how Ifan gets a free crossbow, so him using one makes sense. Little flavor things like that. Which, I think may be the only notable examples.

Persuasion isn’t really related to your class. A mage can be your thief. Any class can take any civil skill and be effective with it. Even then, persuasion doesn’t really change much as far as the story goes for the companion/origin stories go. It plays a role for your character, but when the companions act, persuasion isn’t too important. Depends on what part of what quest maybe, but the point is that class doesn’t matter towards which civil skill you have.

I suppose so. Makes more sense reading it today when I’m more awake. I suppose The Prince makes sense to have summoning given his background and story.

Eh, those might be their default preset, but I don't think it really fits them all perfectly to be honest.

Lizard gets a pet so I supose summoner works for him.
Ifan gets a bow
Can't think of anything else

What do you mean by "lizard gets a pet"? I've played 150 hours and as far as I can tell lizards don't get pets..

The red prince got one once you finish his personal quest

Oh alright. I thought they mean't all lizards get a pet (as they referred to him as "lizard" and not by him name). Haven't finished his personal quest, but I think I know what the pet would be. My Red Prince isn't a summoner however, so I am not sure how useful his pet would be to me.

Unmodded, it's not super useful anyway. It's fun, but seeing as you only get it for 5% of the game, they didn't focus on making it good.
