Character Creation
The character creation process is fairly simple. Before you create your first character, you are forced to choose between Rogwel and Elerd. I chose Elerd, for the sake of simplicity. You then open the character creation screen, which is fairly simple. You choose your name, race, class, gender, head style, hair color, and skin color (hair color and skin color are under "Looks"). The races include Humans, Taxn Humans, Elves, Pom, Lupine, Tarune, and Lyell. The classes include Warrior, Mystic, Machinist, and Scout. The rest is merely cosmetic.

Gameplay
Depending on what class you choose, you'll start off in one of 3 countries. I started off in Bashitunka, in the Taxn Alliance. I quickly checked out the style of my armor and weapons. Which, while they were nicely done, were not impressive. But it was much better than the starter armor in WoW, that's for sure. I digress. I talked to the first NPC and I am suprised by something; Fixed camera conversations. Which I love.

So, I got my first quest. I went to complete it, and noticed something was strange with my movement. When I would move with the WASD keys, my character would jerk around. It would stop when I wouldn't want it to, it would go in the opposite direction. I was livid with frustration. I had to click on where I wanted to go, and I HATE that. So, after getting used to click movement, I killed off these cute little monsters, claimed my reward, rinsed, and repeated. I quickly recieved a "Care Package." I opened it up and was greeted to some lovely items, AND another Care Package to be opened at a later level. I also got a strange club weapon, but I cannot equip it yet. I soon learn I have a little pet, who, at the time, was worthless, but would come to be my best friend.
