One common way of dealing with the endless classes of GLOG is to have only a limited few available in each campaign, and then maybe add more as players go through characters and find new things.

Everyone, of course, has heard the tragic tale of Alonso Quixano, who was so unfortunately driven to madness and death by those ever-foolish "chivalric romances," which any man with half a mind despises as if they called his mother a whore. Many thanks are owed, of course, to Miguel Cervantes, to Alonso Fernández de Avellaneda, and most of all to Sidi Hamid (Moor though he may have been), those noble biographers who preserved such a perfect specimen of the dangers of fantasy in their eternal...| Xeno's Ramblings

I've mostly been writing short fiction recently rather than working on RPGs. I was trying (and failing) to write a story about a space witch when I realized that it would make an awesome GLOG class, so here we are. The implied setting is some sort of science fantasy thing with technology more advanced than ours in some ways, but not by that much, with the shortcomings being made up for with magic. I don't think there's any computers or any long-distance communications more advanced than radio...| Xeno's Ramblings

You were once a servant of the great states of the exiled west, fighting in their wars and killing their foes. Now, for whatever reason, you've left that service, whether retired in honor and glory, wounded too badly to be of further use, expelled in ignominy, deserted in disillusionment or the heat of the moment, or even simply abandoned now that the need for bodies is past.With a tide of other rejects and drifters, you journey to the distant east to begin a new life away from that overpower...| Xeno's Ramblings

Clerics are odd ducks. Their classical image of the mailed crusader with a religious proscription against wielding bladed weapons deliberately evokes medieval warrior-priests of the Archbishop Turpin and Odo of Bayeux vein.
