Classes

Humans in Lineage II are similar to Humans in the modern world. Humans currently
have the greatest dominion in the world and the largest population.

Special Abilities of the Race: Although Humans do not
possess any special abilities, their strong point is the fact that they can transfer
to the most specialized classes.

Characteristics: Humans are well-balanced in all
of their characteristics.




The race of Elves worships the goddess of water and loves nature and aquatic
life. The Elves have slim and nimble bodies, long ears, and beautiful features. During
the era of giants, among all creatures they held the most power. However, when
the giants were destroyed, the power and influence of the Elves were also diminished.
Now they only inhabit part of the forest in Aden.
Special Abilities of the Race: Compared to other races,
Elves can hold their breath longer and are better able to jump from high places.
Characteristics: Elves are wise and quick-witted.
They are fast in attack, movement and casting speeds. They also have superior marksmanship
skills and higher evasion ratings. However, their attack strength is inferior to that of other races.






Dark elves
Elves were once part of the Elven tribes, but were banished after they
learned black magic in order to obtain the power to fight Humans. They
lost the battle, but continued to study the dark arts. Dark Elves have
similar features to their Elven brethren, but are taller, have
blue-gray skin, and silver hair. They follow Shilen, the goddess of
Death.
Special Abilities of the Race: Compared to
other races, Elves can hold their breath longer and are better able to jump from high
places.
Characteristics: Since
they possess high STR and INT, the Dark Elven attack capability is high.




The Orc race is the race of fire. Among all races, Orcs possess the greatest physical
abilities. After the destruction of the giants, they were able to expel the Elves
and attained the most powerful position on Aden. However, they were defeated
by the Elf-Human alliance some time later, and are currently living in an arctic area
of Elmore.
Special Abilities of the Race: They have a
strong resistance to negative effects, such as poison or sickness.
Characteristics: Orcs have superior
physical strength, with high maximum HP and MP levels. They also have a fast recovery
speed. However, they are not quick and have slow movement, attack, and casting
speeds. They have low marksmanship and evasion as well.




Dwarves
are of the race of earth. They have strong physical strength, a curious
nature, and a fondness for creating new items. After the destruction of
the giants, the Dwarven race always tried to side with the most
powerful race in the land. However, as a result they became an isolated
race - disliked by all other races for their profiteering nature. Their
society structure can be compared to a large corporation and they are
still renowned for their business savvy and capacity for organization.
Dwarves are largely divided into Scavengers who find and retrieve raw
materials, and Artisans who manufacture products out of raw materials.

Special Abilities of the Race: Their inventory size is larger than
that of other races and, compared to other races, their weight penalty is lower.

Characteristics: Dwarves are master craftsmen and boast of great physical strength.






Kamael
were born in the Era of Myths. These mysterious creatures have
preserved their own unique culture living within the confines of the
Isle of Souls, a haven located to the west of the Dark Elf Village.
They appeared on the continent under the guidance of the Gods. Unlike
the other five races that were created by gods, it is speculated that
they were created for the purpose of battling against some unknown
creatures. They are born into their destined religion that serves an
absolute ruler called the “Mother Nornil”. Under the Mother Nornil,
they devote their faith in the Goddess of Past, who rules history, the
Goddess of Present, who records everything happening at this moment,
and the Goddess of Future, who forecasts what’s to come.

Special Abilities of the Race: Kamael
have an affinity towards darkness. Because of this they can increase
their own or decrease an enemy’s resistance to darkness, or bestow a
darkness buff to their attacks. The Kamael can consume the souls of
their enemies and turn the souls into energy to fuel their own skills.
Most of their skills such as laying traps, buffs and magic can only be
activated upon consuming a certain number of souls. The Kamael can only
wear Light Armor, and when using recovery magic, a 60% penalty is
applied.

Characteristics:
The Kamael specialize in different classes according to their gender.
They are classified as fighters by default; however, spell abilities
are usable by absorbing souls.
