| |
| ====================
| |
| *** Warrior ***
| |
| Name: Koric
| |
| Basic Weapon: Axe
| |
| Familiar: Dragonfly
| |
| Prime Stat: Strength
| |
| </pre>
| |
| The Warrior hits hard, and can take the same punishment back. It’s a very forgiving character for the beginning player. His magic is weak, so don’t expect potions to save you every time. If you get him in a crowd of baddies, he swings his axe with double strokes, and mows stuff down pretty darn quick.

| Speed: 115
| |
| Armor: 120
| |
| Magic: 90

|
| |
| *** Valkyrie ***
| |
| Name: Freya
| |
| Basic Weapon: Sword
| |
| Familiar: Eagle
| |
| Prime Stat: Armor
| |
| </pre>
| |
| The Valkyrie is the female counterpart to the Warrior. Her emphasis is more on taking damage, rather than dealing it. Average speed and magic abilities make her a balanced character, another good choice for a newbie.

| Armor: 130
| |

| |
|
| |
| *** Archer ***
| |
| Name: Aeowyn
| |
| Basic Weapon: Bow
| |
| Familiar: Butterfly
| |
| Prime Stat: Speed
| |
|
| |
| The Archer (I still think she should be the Elf) is the fastest
| |
| 7character. Her bow can be shot at a very fast rate, but in a toe-to-toe
| |
| fight, she’s going down. The Archer is a difficult character to start
| |
| out with, because one big rush, and it’s over. The Archer does make an
| |
| excellent backup for the Warrior or Valkyrie in a multiplayer game.
| |
|
| |
| Starting Stats
| |
| Strength: 100
| |
| Speed: 145
| |
| Armor: 80
| |
| Magic: 100
| |
|
| |
| *** Wizard ***
| |
| Name: Siris
| |
| Basic Weapon: Staff
| |
| Familiar: Dragon
| |
| Prime Stat: Magic
| |
|
| |
| The Wizard is your typical scholar. His distance attacks are the best,
| |
| and his magic is above all the rest. A little easier for a novice
| |
| player, because of the good damage from a distance, and the better
| |
| effect of potions in a jam. The wizard will get his mystical butt
| |
| kicked in close quarters though, so beware.
| |
|
| |
| Starting Stats
| |
| Strength: 80
| |
| Speed: 120
| |
| Armor: 90
| |
| Magic: 160

| |
| *** Bonus Characters ***
| |
| The bonus characters are attainable through the game in bonus
| |
| worlds, located in certain levels. You access the level by standing on
| |
| the door with the skull and crossbones on it. You must gather 50 of the
| |
| coins in those levels to unlock those characters. They're basically all
| |
| skins for the base classes. You really don’t need a guide for each
| |
| bonus levels. If you walk on two legs you’re overqualified to figure
| |
| them out.
| |
| The only catch with them is once you switch to a bonus character,
| |
| you’re stuck with the bonus characters. If you’re playing a wizard,
| |
| then switch to the Minotaur, you’re gonna have to earn the Jackal to
| |
| play as a wizard again. Your stats themselves don’t change, but you
| |
| have to remember to take on the fighting aspects of your new class.
| |
| The up side is that once you have the “basic” 4 bonus characters,
| |
| you can essentially switch your class any time you’re not in a level.
| |
| Going into a close quarter melee level? Grab your Minotaur. Expecting
| |
| more distanced combat? Tigress to the rescue.
| |
| I’ve been asked, so I’ll address it. Each player must collect 50
| |
| coins to switch to the bonus characters. Just because one person has
| |
| access to them doesn’t mean that anybody who plays with them will have
| |
| access to them, but since the newer player will have access to all the
| |
| levels the older player has, the older player can take them to the bonus
| |
| worlds and let them collect the coins. Simple as that.
