Ever since then, he has been planning his revenge. He is now expanding his evil forces, and has founded a demon training camp with the sole purpose of destroying the Garden of Eden. So, all of the Little Angels there have undertaken special training, and have descended to Earth so that the battle can commence in Eden.
The land of Eden includes four realms that are home to the Aurora, Steel, Shadow and Beast factions. Each has its own seat of power. Aurora City stands between the seacoast and a fertile plain. Due to its location, it's plagued by pirates, so the king has decided to engage valiant chevaliers to drive them out. Iron Castle rises above a barren desert. Resources extracted from mines in the nearby mountains fuel its economy and its centuries-long war against a hated rival. The inhabitants of Dark City are highly proficient excavators, their expertise honed over generations of digging out large caverns. Right now, they're concerned about a mysterious hole. Its origin is unknown, as is the depth to which it extends. The residents of Breeze Jungle love their home and wish to protect it from being ravaged by powerful giants.
The game has a unique double class and skill system. Players are able to change or match skills after having chosen a class, which helps make characters distinctive. Different classes are able to have the same skills. For example, a character from the fighting class is able to have the magic skill. However, some special skills cannot be matched with each other, such as the chaos and the earth skills.
A skill may be leveled up by using it, but can never be higher than the character's level. Players can change skills after reaching level 20, but need a special item called a skill crystal to do so.

Job System
There are 14 classes available in Angels Online. Each has six different skills. All the classes are divided into one of the following systems - Fighting, Magic or Production. Players can also change their skills by talking to the Skill Angel (there are certain exceptions). Due to this, everyone's character can be truly unique. The only thing to take into account before changing a skill is how the two skills match.The game has a unique double class and skill system.
