Beginner!
Description
You start MapleStory as a beginner, the form you take when you begin a new character.
The beginner does not have any very special skills, but can use the three beginner skills: Three Snails, Nimble Feet, and Recovery.
The purpose of the beginner is to educate you on how to walk, move, climb ladders, jump, attack, and many other functions that will come to be useful later on.
Once your character reaches level 8 / 10, you may choose to undertake any of the five jobs; warrior, magician, bowman, pirate or thief.
The requirements and the places for the job advancement differ from job to job. In MapleStory, 5 job advancements are available for your character.
