Story

In the beginning of time, the first God of the universe, Pan Gu, lived an immortal life. But with no subjects to lord over, Pan Gu grew tired of his solitary existence and decided to decompose his body into five elements-fire, metal, wood, earth, and water. With his divine power, Pan Gu forged these elements into air, land, mountains, rivers, seas, and plant life-and laid the foundation for a new world. It was then that Pan Gu made his first attempt to fill this new world with life. From his shadow he formed the first sentient beings. These unnamed creatures were uncivilized, and before long, they began turning on one another and corrupting the world around them. Pan Gu saw that what he had created had become an Imperfect World, and moved quickly to rectify his mistake. He built a floating city known as Heaven's Tear, and placed within the city the few creatures that had yet to be corrupted. Then, with the power of water and wind, Pan Gu created a massive flood, which swept through the land and destroyed all life in its path.

The world now cleansed, Pan Gu set about creating a new world, one filled with beings who were capable of Spiritual Cultivation. He created three races that possessed the traits he most treasured in himself. The Human race was born of Pan Gu's spirit, and demonstrated morality, honor, and an unlimited imagination. The race of the Untamed, born of Pan Gu's body, embodied freedom and peace, and possessed a unique connection with the natural order of the world. And the third race, the Winged Elves, were born of Pan Gu's own blood, and exemplified beauty, grace, and purity. Between the three races, the Perfect World was created.

The chief quality that Pan Gu gave all three races was free will. He vowed never again to eradicate an entire species, so all conflicts between the races were to be resolved amongst themselves. One such conflict arose between the Humans and Winged Elves when the two races discovered the city of Heaven's Tear. A war erupted as they fought for control of the great city, bringing out the worst in both races. The Untamed remained neutral, as they were content with living in harmony with the natural world. As the war intensified, and neither side relented, a new threat emerged.

The race that was thought to have been eradicated in the great flood returned in full force. These creatures were not quite living, but not quite dead, and thus came to be known as wraiths. The wraiths appeared to possess a singular objective: to destroy the other races and corrupt the beautiful world around them. Rumors swirled that the wraiths were capable of possessing other living things. Not much is known about the true nature of this evil, but one thing is clear. The three races-Human, Untamed, and Winged Elf-must set aside their differences and unite to preserve their way of life, halt the spread of corruption, and above all, protect the Perfect World.

Races

Earthguard

Race Summary The Earthguard are the natural protectors of Perfect World. An ancient, subterranean race, they were selected by Pan'Gu himself to receive the gift of a "Third Eye". The Earthguard have trained all their lives with the knowledge that, at the onset of an age of darkness and destruction, they would be called to action and depended upon. To others they may seen supernaturally calm, and at times, aloof, but this is only a byproduct of their singular motive.To guide the forces of good through the coming calamity.

Basic Information

Human

Race Summary Champions of morality and societal grace, the Humans have dominated diplomacy and commerce in Perfect World for ages. They are a race who value duty, honor, and respect of tradition. Some are driven by a hunger for exploration and adventure, while others are driven by a desire for fortune and power. Human warfare is simple but effective, and consists of blade and magic techniques.

Basic Information

Tideborn

Race Summary The top of the food chain in their vast ocean domain, the Tideborn have returned after thousands of years of isolation from the mainland. Life in the deep under tremendous constant physical pressure has made their bodies lithe, yet remarkably strong, making them perfectly suited for acrobatics and other impressive feats requiring precise body control. The quiet isolation inherent to deep sea survival has also given them plenty of time to practice meditation and focus, allowing them to hone their minds to a near supernatural level. Though the natural form of the Tideborn calls to mind the mermaids and mer-men of legend, they've adopted a bipedal form for their return to the terrestrial world.

Basic Information

Untamed

Race Summary The Way of Nature provides all thoughtful creatures with the potential for conscious perception. After the god Pan Gu imbued the creatures of the Perfect World with the capacity for thought, a small collective of beasts cultivated their talents and developed consciousness for themselves and their brethren. Their kind is now referred to as the Untamed. Their abilities focus on physical strength and poisonous, disabling magics.

Basic Information

Wing Elves

Race Summary The Winged Elves hail from an ancient and divine bloodline. Their exquisite beauty and naturally-developing wings are the result of divine seed borne by mortal maidens. This provides them with heightened senses, as well as the ability to fly. In combat, Winged Elves specialize in archery and supportive healing magic.

Basic Information

Classes

Blademaster

Class Summary
Courageous, righteous, and resolute-these are the defining traits of a Blademaster.

Thus, they have developed an array of long-ranged and high-powered magical attacks utilizing the elements of nature. As masters of the conjuring arts, Wizards are vulnerable while casting, but once the casting is complete, they deal great damage to enemies.

Type: Ranged Magic Damage
Available Weapons: Wand, Magic Sword, Pataka, Jewel Quoit
Comments: Highest Skill Damage, Slow Casting Time

Barbarian

Class Summary
Barbarians have evolved from tigers, lions, and other bestial hunters.

These fighters also have plenty of powerful spells at their disposal and can shapeshift into tiger form.

Venomancers have the ability to charm animals and tame them as pets, and, similar to the Barbarian, can take the form of a fox.

With an unwavering sense of pride and duty, Archers can learn to shoot arrows both elemental and poisonous in nature.

Available Weapons: Bow, Crossbow, Slingshot
