When you first create your character, one choice you have is to choose which of the four totem gods you will worship. There are four: Ju jak the phoenix, Chung Ryong the dragon, Hyun Moo the turtle, and Baekho the tiger.

Ju jak

Ju jak is the red phoenix, and is the totem god of Mages. This does not mean that you MUST choose Ju jak as your totem if you are a Mage, but its Totem Helm is geared the most towards that path.

Ju jak is also the name of the NPC Subpath for Mages. If you devote yourself to this totem, you are able to forge a Ju jak staff, and learn Ju jak Evocation in addition to the Dog Spells.

The Ju Jak is also known as the Guardian of the South. This Guardian Gods time of day is Mid-day, and it presides over the Summer season. It is often thought that this God is the incarnation of Fire (from the Five Elements of Feng Shui).

The first mage in Nexus to learn the ways of Ju jak was JediMaster.

History and lore to be added later.

Chung Ryong

Chung Ryong is the blue dragon, and is the totem god of Warriors. This does not mean that you MUST choose Chung Ryong as your totem if you are a Warrior, but its Totem Helm is geared the most towards that path.

Chung Ryong is also the name of the NPC Subpath for Warriors. If you devote yourself to this totem, you are able to forge a Chung Ryong Scale, and learn Chung Ryong's Rage (commonly referred to as Rage, as in "What rage are you on?") in addition to the Dog Spells.

The Chung Ryong is also known as the Guardian of the East. This Guardian Gods time of day is Dusk, and it presides over the Spring season. It is often thought that this God is the incarnation of Wood (from the Five Elements of Feng Shui).

Hyun Moo

Hyun Moo is the black turtle, and is the totem god of Poets. This does not mean that you MUST choose Hyun Moo as your totem if you are a Poet, but its Totem Helm is geared the most towards that path.

Hyun Moo is also the name of the NPC Subpath for Poets. If you devote yourself to this totem, you are able to forge a Life Lance, and learn Hyun Moo Ressurection in addition to the Dog Spells.

The Hyun Moo is also known as the Guardian of the North. This Guardian Gods time of day is Night, and it presides over the Winter season. It is often thought that this God is the incarnation of Water (from the Five Elements of Feng Shui).

History and lore to be added later.

Baekho

Baekho is the white tiger, and is the totem god of Rogues. This does not mean that you MUST choose Baekho as your totem if you are a Rogue, but its Totem Helm is geared the most towards that path.

Baekho is also the name of the NPC Subpath for Rogues. If you devote yourself to this totem, you are able to forge a Nimble Blade, and learn Baekho's Cunning (commonly referred to as Cunning or Cunn for short, as in "What cunning are you on?") in addition to the Dog Spells.

The Baekho is also known as the Guardian of the West. This Guardian Gods time of day is dawn, and it presides over the Autumn season. It is often thought that this God is the incarnation of Metal (from the Five Elements of Feng Shui).
