Alan's story

Alan, the Crusader
Alan, the Crusader

Elbeland once had an order of Holy Knights who served Lugard, the God of Light, and trained in the arts of light. Alan had only just become their commander when Kundun's war spread over the continent and the order was sent to the front. Light magic worked well against the servants of the God of Darkness, but the enemy kept coming, and the knights were slowly pushed back until they stood at the edge of a cliff.

Beaten and surrounded by fallen comrades, Alan prayed to Lugard. Lugard's sigil rose into the sky and its light gave the knights back their strength. They struck back, turned the battle, and the MU Empire won. Alan returned to Elbeland and keeps training, ready for the next threat.

Playing the Crusader

Webzen describes the Crusader as a hybrid: he deals damage with the power of light and supports his party with Lugard's blessing, mixing survivability with utility for solo and group play. Any account can create him and he starts in Elbeland. He has five class names: Crusader, Impact Crusader, Master Paladin, Sacred Paladin and Temple Guard Commander. His set party is with the Illusion Knight and the Rage Fighter.
