Impressive Character Creation & Variety

When I first logged into Grand Fantasia I didn't know what to expect as the game looked a lot like Fiesta Online, which had few customization options. I was pleasantly surprised upon hitting the character creation screen though – players can choose from one of seven different eyes, 10+ hairstyles, 8+ hair colors and 6+ skin tones. Unlike most games, players do not select their 'class' while making their character.  All players start off as a 'novice' and can advance to their first 'job' at level 5. On top of the regular character customization options, players can customize their 'sprites', which are basically cute little pets which play an important role in the game (explained below). These cute sprites can also be customized to a certain degree. Select from one of 12 classes for your sprite [determines sprite's starting skills] and start your adventure in the world of Saphael.
