Luminous is a Magician class, it is also the last Hero class in the game. He uses a Shining Rod as his weapon and he uses Orbs as his secondary weapon. Although the story represents him as a male, he can be created as both a male or a female inside the game.

All Hero classes have a unique element to the character. Luminous has a Light/Dark system where he can control and balance his power. During the tutorial, you are able to select either the Light or Dark path; choosing one will effect your skills. Choosing Light will give you skills that boosts your light and a light attack skill, vice versa if Dark was chosen. After you received your second job advancement, you will get Dark skills alongside with your light skills. Using too many light skills will force your character to enter the Dark mode, your orb will turn purple and your right eye will glow. Entering dark mode will also boost selected dark skills that you have. Using too many dark skills will do the exact opposite, it will turn you into Light mode, your characters eyes will be reverted to normal and the orb will be sky blue. All your light skills now have a boost rather than the dark skills. Also, right before you actually change modes, your character will go into an Equilibrium state, a few skills will have their cooldowns removed and has extra power added, this lasts 10 seconds and 20 seconds in 4th job. Equilibrium can only be activated in 3rd and 4th job.

==First Job Advancement==
==Introduction/Tutorial==
Luminous begins at the Temple of Time, similar to Demon Slayer's tutorial. Several characters have dialogue here, including Phantom, Magnus (an evil character who kills a spirit named ??), Aran, the Black Mage, and Freud. Before getting to the Black Mage, players have to walk to the right and kill a bunch of serpent-like robed mages, which is the only fighting done in this tutorial. Freud helps Luminous seal off the Black Mage, which the player has to act out by standing on five different locations around the Black Mage's room. After initiating the sealing ritual, a video plays that shows Luminous creating a barrier around the Black Mage and then getting cursed because he touched the Black Mage.


===Training Areas (Lv. 10 to 30)===
After waking up, Luminous meets a little girl, Lania, who tells him he is near Ellinia. A movie plays showing Luminous fishing and playing with Lania. Luminous goes to live with the little girl for 20 years. One day they begin walking into the forest and Luminous' dark powers begin to swell up. Luminous explodes with uncontrollable power, blasting holes in the nearby trees and lighting the area on fire. Lania is found dead and Luminous begins his quest to utilize his new found strength. He is then teleported to a zone near Ellinia and he begins his training. At this point, Luminous is level 10 and has completed the first job advancement.


Level 10-20: Blue Ribbon Pig (Found in Nautilus Harbor)
==First Job==
*AP: spend all AP on INT.
*SP: all skills can be maxed out, so don't worry about spending your SP on the wrong skills.


Level 20-30: Cool Jellyfish (Found in Nautilus Harbor)
Continue the Luminous quest line, which takes you around Ellinia and teleports you to some other zones, until you reach the second job at level 30. Before leaving Ellinia, make sure to get the demon helmet (+12 INT) from the quest that Grendel gives. The demon portal is located three north of Ellinia.
