First, Let's talk about character creation, which is very simple.
1. You will have to choose a race and a class. Now let me explain races and classes. 

a. Humans:
Humans don't really have anything special about them, but they still have advantages. As a human, you can be either a warrior or a mage.

--1. Warrior:
The humans' melee class. You can choose from over 13 kinds of weapons. Your build can range between 3 stats: Str,Agi, and Cons.

--2. Mage: The class that deals the most damage in the whole game. But still, you will lack defense and HP. Put most of your stat points into Int, I would put some Cons too for HP. You can use all magical instruments as a mage.

b. Beasts:
As a beast, you will be able to transform into either a White Tiger, or a Fox. The classes are:

--1. Werebeasts(Male ONLY): The beast tanks. You can wield 4 weapons, the heavy ones. Hammers, Axes, Dual hammers and Dual axes. Can transform into a White tiger.

--2. Werefoxes(Female ONLY): I don't have much info on this race but you can tame monsters and have them as pets. You can transform into a Fox. You are basically a mage, but you won't have skills as strong as the human mage's skills. Can use all magic instruments.

c. Elves:
As an elf, you get to fly since the begining of the game. Other than that, they are just like humans except for a few things.

--1. Elf Archers: I have no idea about this class, but you can use Bows, Crossbows and Slingshots.

you need Perfect World Gold mostly (3-4 each lvl up, depends on build), you need str only to wear armor (light armor is most common). If you wear light armor, keep your Str 4 points above your lvl and you'll be fine. Con is optional.

 --2. Elf Priests: The elf mage class. They can cast, heal and buff too. Concentrate on Int and Cons for this class. More Int,  Perfect World Gold. And don't forget to heal yourself in PvP. Can use all magical instruments.

Now let's move on. In the character creation screen, you will have SO many options. So try to create a beautiful character.
