Argentum Online, also known as AO, is an argentinian MMORPG (Massive Multi-player Online Role-Playing Game) available for Microsoft Windows operative systems and published in 2001.

Then you will have to create a character choose, race, class, etc, and VOILÁ; You start playing (see other character creation options below). Game: Character Creation First, you get to name your character (Note: there are certain rules you have to follow while naming your character; otherwise your account could get banned). Then, you own Skill Points which you may use to improve some of them, and you also have Attribute Points to improve attributes (Strength, Agility, Intelligence, Luck and Constitution). Next, you get to choose characters race, class and gender before you create it, and there it is; your own Argentum Online character. Races When creating your character you can choose your race. This will determine your physical appearance (alongside gender). Humans: -Humans are quite an attribute-balanced race. That´s why they don't have any attribute bonuses. Elves: -Elves are good archers and can very well cast spells. They have intelligence and agility bonuses. Dark Elves: -Dark Elves are the evil counterparts of the elves. They are pretty good at stabbing and ranged combat. They have strength and intelligence bonuses. Dwarves: -Not very good at magic and spell-casting, but great warriors. Have constitution and strength bonuses. Gnomes: -Gnomes are very good wizards and spellcasters. Nevertheless, they offer poor resistance and little strength. They have lots of mana (the power that allows you to cast spells) and are very keen on dodging. Classes Classes determine you character's abilities in different things. There are Warrior classes, and worker classes. Among the first there are: Wizards, Druids, Bards, Clerics, Paladins, Assasins, Warriors, Thieves, Bandits and Pirates. The worker class can create clothes, ships, weapons, among other things.
