Kal online

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kal Online is an mmorpg created by the Korean company Inixsoft^[1]. The player is given a choice of three professions including a Knight, a Mage, or an Archer. A forth class (Thief) is scheduled to be released in November 2008.

Each class can progress in levels and when reaching level 50 can progress to a new job-type. Archers can become Expert Archers or Imperial Commanders. Knights can become Vagabond Swordsman or Commanders, Mages can become Hermits or CJB's.

Each class has its own strengths and weaknesses.

A player can customize his character by adding stat and skill points each level up.

To achieve a level up, the player needs to kill monsters, and complete quests, given by NPCs (non playing characters)

There are also Animal Eggs which players can hatch into a animal which gives the player's character more points.

The types of Animals are: Tiger, good for a knight, Panther, good for a archer, Bird, good for a mage. By late 2008 there will be a 4th animal; a Rat, good for player Elfenlied.

Some of the representation of characters/minorities in the game have been criticized as being racially and sexually stereotypical^[2]
