Character Creation
From Unofficial Ansalon Wiki
By what name art thou known?
Ansalon has a storyline based on the Dragonlance series of books. We ask that a few guidelines must be followed in creating names.
- No trademarked names -- Frodo, Sparhawk, Zifnab, Rand, etc.
- No compound names -- BlackHawk, DragonFire, IronClaw, etc.
- No vulgarity or offensive names (you should know what we mean).
- Names should have some roleplaying aspect to them.
- Names should NOT be titles such as DarkMage, BlackKnight, Demonspawn etc.
- You may set your title upon creation with the title command.
- Don't name yourself something your mother wouldn't call you,
- Any names chosen not deemed appropriate shall be changed.

Different races have different starting statistics, and also different stat maximums for magic items and training. Creation points (CP) increase the amount of experience it takes to gain a level. For more information, see the help files for each race (i.e. 'help kagonesti')
What is your race (help for more information)? minotaur Minotaurs are the largest of the races, ranging up to 7-8 feet in height. They are stronger than any other race, and almost as durable as the dwarves. Minotaurs are very versatile, but will not steal from other races, so thievery as a profession is out. But by and large, minotaurs prefer to be what they were born to be: a Warrior!
From their birth, minotaurs are trained for strength, cunning, and intelligence. They believe that the weak should perish and that might proves right. It is to them, the natural process of life.
Is this the race you want? (Y/N) y

Ansalon has the following Classes available: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Mage Mages are the complete spellcasters. They have mastery of
almost all magic known to Krynn.
Cleric Clerics are the avatars of the Gods. They get their power
from their chosen deity.
Thief Thieves specialize in the stealthy arts, as well as
combat skills.
Warrior Warriors are the toe to toe, heavy handed fighters. Their
prowess in combat is unequaled.
Paladin A Paladin is primarily a Warrior; however, they also gain
certain powers from their God.
Ranger Rangers are excellent fighters, but they lean more towards
a Thief in their approach to combat, stealthy and swift.
BattleMage These mages concentrate solely on those powers and abilities
that will aid them in a battle.
Monk Fighters that are better using their hands then most classes
are with weapons; lead a non-materialistic lifestyle.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Help files are available on each individual class with more detail. See also: Help mage, cleric, thief, warrior, paladin, ranger,
battlemage and monk.
Select a class: [mage cleric warrior paladin battlemage monk]: paladin
Paladins are highly specialized warriors. They have many of the skills that pure warriors do, but they are also gifted by their God with certain powers. Chief among these is the ability to heal themselves or their comrades. Paladins may be considered a cross between a Warrior and a Cleric.
Paladins begin with the skill in the sword, and gain fast healing as a default skill. Other weapon skills may be purchased fairly cheaply. Is this the class you want? (Y/N) y
