Since the game's release in 2003, Final Fantasy has provided a vast online gaming world for Final Fantasy XI players to explore. Creating a character is an essential step in exploring Vana'diel, the world of Final Fantasy online, and there are some important preparatory steps to keep in mind in the process of making your online character.
Instructions
1. Subscribe to Final Fantasy's online world using a Visa or MasterCard--these are the two forms of payment accepted, according to Final Fantasy XI's website. Membership fees are billed at $12.99 per month as of 2010. Extra features--such as expansion pack access--are available for $1 to $3 dollars a month.
2. Decide what race of character you would like to create--you can choose from Elvaan, Hume, Tarutaru, Mithru and Galka. Each race has its own unique set of character benefits, according to Eyes on Final Fantasy. Attributes such as strength, agility and vitality vary according to the race you choose for .
3. Choose your character's job type from the available selections of Monk, Warrior, Red Mage, White Mage, Black Mage and Thief. Your Final Fantasy online character's job will affect nearly every aspect of gameplay--for instance, choosing a White Mage will focus your character on healing, protective spells, while picking a warrior will commit you to specialize in weapons and armor.
4. Customize your character's gender, hair color, face, body type and country of origin to reflect your specific tastes--both aesthetic and personal. These options will not affect your character's job skill level or attributes, but exist to allow you to create a unique Final Fantasy character to lead you through the game's online world of Vana'diel.
5. Give your character a unique name, keeping in mind that the maximum name length is 15 characters long. Name your character carefully--you will be identified and eventually recognized by fellow players of Final Fantasy online by the name you choose. Save your character and begin exploring the vast online world of Final Fantasy XI.
