Vindictus is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game created by devCAT.
Vindictus takes place in the same setting used in Mabinogi, but is placed chronologically several hundred years prior to the first game during a period of war and strife. Nexon America, Nexon’s North American division, announced the new name on March 12, 2010 at the Game Developers’ Conference in San Francisco.
Vindictus’ “Classes” and “characters” are one and the same. When beginning the game, players will have a choice to play as one of five characters, each of which has different combat skills and abilities. Players are free to alter certain aspects of their character’s appearance, but basic abilities and combat styles are set at character creation. They are gender-locked.

There is a dyeing system that allows players to dye clothing and weapons for an entirely unique appearance. At character creation, people may customize eye and hair color, hair style, height (which affects gameplay) etc. There are some customizations that require NX, but they do not use Premium character cards; instead, the player must buy them during Customization.
Some customization things players can buy are:
Necklaces
Inner armor
Body tattoos
Different hair
These customizations give players a boost in the LUK, or Luck stat, which increases the chance of getting better items dropped from Evil Cores.
Each playable character has unique skills making game-play different across each character. In addition, each character has two sets of skills for their main and alternative weapons. Skills can be upgraded by using AP points which are rewarded by completing battles and even when you are not playing the game. This is due to the Meditation skill which periodically rewards an AP point even when you are logged off.
