The dark haired dude. This Character is based in pure strength, and meelee
combat. Often leader of groups. Pretty easy to level up. Good for beginners.
He has some flaws but it's easy to get around them. If you plan to max him
out, he becomes the powerfullest character.

Pros:

-Starts with the highest HP of all characters.
-Has more armors than the other Characters.
-These also have more defense than the others'.
-Can equip 2 One-handed weapons giving him even more power.
-His special techniques are the Skills. This Skills are attached to the
weapons.
-Can also learn a permanent attack Skill: Twisting Slash.
-Last but not least, he learns another permanent skill, but not an
attacking move, Inner Strength which increases his already high HP.

Cons:

-Starts with very low Mana and gets only 0.5 mana per level
-Has some problems with long-ranged enemies
-Mana and/or Stamina is used up really fast
-Can't hit too many monsters at once
-Can't hit enemies stading away from him.

The dark spellcaster. This is my favorite character, but it doesn't
mean it's the best. Pretty hard to level up. As you may think, this
character's main ability is casting spells.

Pros:

-Has a lot of power casting spells
-Can hit enemies far away, around him and all over the screen
-Has a large number of spells to cast
-Can inflict Statuses on Enemies
-Armors don't need a lot of strength to be used
-Has the highest Mana of the game and gets 2 mana per level
-Can use part of his Mana instead of HP with the spell Mana Shield.

Cons:

-Has the lowest defense on his armors
-Has the lowest HP
-Can't use most of the weapons
-Has to find the items to learn most of the spells

SKills:

Energy Ball - The first spell of the Dark Wizard, it compresses his power into a small ball to the target


[COLOR="YellowGreen"]Power Wave[/COLOR] - It shoots a wave of force towards the enemy.


[COLOR="YellowGreen"]Lightning [/COLOR]- summons a lightning to knock back enemies


[COLOR="YellowGreen"]Teleport [/COLOR]- The Teleport spell allows the Wizards to move himself anywhere within the screen without a trace.


[COLOR="YellowGreen"]Ice [/COLOR]- Frozes the target enemy, effect will be slow, froze.


[COLOR="YellowGreen"]Poison [/COLOR]- The Poison spell conjures poisonous vines that sprout from the ground near target's feet that may slow and poison the target. Poisoned enemies will slowly lose life over time until the poison wears off or is cured.


[COLOR="YellowGreen"]Twister [/COLOR]- The Twister spell allows the caster to conjure small cyclones that can confuse the enemy when they are struck by it.

[COLOR="YellowGreen"]Ice storm[/COLOR] - casts a bunch of ice shards and glaciers to damage enemies and slows down the survivors


[COLOR="YellowGreen"]Decay [/COLOR]- Causes falling poison balls which deal a huge amount of damage and can effectively "poison" the enemy to death

Fairy Elf / Muse Elf
[IMG]http://i33.tinypic.com/1zury8.gif[/IMG]

Elves are the only females in Mu. Elves can be risen in two ways(Agility or
Energy), making them very useful. Both kinds can use the Multiple shoot
and the permanent Skill, Penetration, and the Energy Elf can use Summons and
White Magic AKA Sorcery. One thing to add is that this division doesn't mean
you can't switch, but it's really hard to make an Elf with both parts,
actually, it's harder than raising any other character.

Agility Elf Pros:

-Average Character on everything
-Can use stronger (Cross)Bows
-Can use some Dark Knight weapons
-Can use higher level armors
-Can train by theirselves without problems
-Has a great range and can hit about 4 enemies in one shot.
-Multiple Shoot is attached to (Cross)Bows already.

Agility Elf Cons:

-Armors and (Cross)Bows need A LOT of agility to be used
-Even with all the agility, Elves need more agility than the other
characters to get more defense.
-Bows need Arrows(Crossbows need Bolts) and if you suddenly run out of them
you have to buy more, as monsters don't drop them.

Energy Elf Pros:

-Can increase attack, Defense, and heal herself or others around(AKA buffing)
-Very useful when in a group
-Most sociable character
-You can summons monsters and let them do the dirty work, and you can even
buff it,

Energy Elf Cons:

-Very, Very hard to raise. Not recommened for beginners.
-If you lose your buffs for a split second you will be owned by the
enemies.
-As you need to increase your Energy, you can't wear stronger armors.
-You can heal your summon.
