Every archetype belongs to one of 13 classes. The archetype sets a contestant's five stats. The class is meant to help push archetypes to behave more tailored towards their shared characteristics. This system is not meant to be super OP, but rather help NPCs act more like they would in real life.
Popularity below means the audience, not the house.
1. Villa event casting weights
Odds of being picked for that kind of event. Green is more likely, red is less, blank is normal. Joins: pulled into someone's alliance. Founder: they start the alliance.

2. Confessional count multiplier
Scales a contestant's share of the weekly confessional budget. Applied after event mention bonuses, before the uniform scale to target.

| Confessionalists | 1.25 | Higher |
| Floaters | 0.85 | Lower |
| Homemakers | 0.85 | Lower |
| Jesters | 1.00 | Default |
| Outcasts | 1.20 | Higher |

3. Audience opinion
Where the crowd lands on a class when nothing else is happening. 50 is neutral. Big moments fade is how fast a standout week wears off.
| Class | Settles at | Big moments fade |
|---|---|---|
| Comp Beasts | 53 | Quickly |
| Confessionalists | 50 | Quickly |
| Floaters | 48 | Quickly |
| Homemakers | 52 | Slowly |
| Jesters | 52 | Quickly |
| Outcasts | 47 | Quickly |
| Production Pets | 54 | Slowly |
| Showmances | 51 | Quickly |
| Social Butterflies | 51 | Quickly |
| Strategists | 49 | Normal |
| Superfans | 51 | Normal |
| Underdogs | 54 | Slowly |
| Villains | 45 | Quickly |
A standout week is about halfway forgotten after roughly 5 weeks at the normal speed, nearer 3 for the quickest classes and about 7 for the slowest. What actually happens in the villa moves the crowd far more than this does.
4. Random casting distribution
Random casts assign one class per slot before picking an archetype inside it, so a cast spreads across every class instead of each contestant rolling from the whole archetype pool.
| Class | Archetypes | Share of pool |
|---|---|---|
| Comp Beasts | 10 | 6.8% |
| Confessionalists | 12 | 8.1% |
| Floaters | 11 | 7.4% |
| Homemakers | 17 | 11.5% |
| Jesters | 4 | 2.7% |
| Outcasts | 13 | 8.8% |
| Production Pets | 13 | 8.8% |
| Showmances | 8 | 5.4% |
| Social Butterflies | 9 | 6.1% |
| Strategists | 17 | 11.5% |
| Superfans | 8 | 5.4% |
| Underdogs | 11 | 7.4% |
