Let’s start at the beginning, with the storyline. You wake up aboard a ship. It soon becomes apparant that you almost drowned. Aboard of the vessel you are taught the basics of the game. The ship drops you off on Refuge Island, where you stay a while until you decide which faction you want to join. You can choose between Freeport (evil) and Qeynos (good). After you’ve been dropped off you continue your own way in this wonderful and adventurous world. Norrath is devided into various areas, inhabited by numerous creatures and NPC’s. Your goal is to solve quests and gain experience while you’re at it. You can choose between a wide choice of races among which are the High Elves, Humans, Dwarves and Kerra (cat-like creatures). Further on you have to choose between a few classes, for example, you can become a mage, a scout or a fighter, whatever suits you best. After a while you will be given a choice between subclasses. Some of the available subclasses are: Wizard, Brawler or Paladin.
