Untamed

Untamed are a race that evolved from animals when Pan Gu blessed them with the ability to think. The two untamed classes in Perfect World are the Barbarian and the Venomancer. The starting town of the Untamed is the City of the Lost. The special thing about these classes are that they are gender specific. Untamed have the innate ability to shapeshift into an animal, increasing their defense and unlocking a different set of skills. Untamed have a variety of beasts as aerogear; like birds, dragons, and other mythical creatures.

History
Life evolved in the Primal World over the ages, bringing forth many new creatures. Among them was a proud and feral race known as the Untamed, born from wild animals like foxes and tigers. While the males retained their barbaric animal nature, the females evolved further into powerful magic users. Relations between Humans and the Untamed were delicate, and many female Untamed enjoyed seducing young and talented Human men. The males of the Untamed also developed a tendency to try to dominate the physically weaker Humans. This led to many killings and small battles between the Humans and the Untamed, as well as no small number of tragic romances.

The love and hate between the Humans and the Untamed was so fierce that it even affected politics; when the Winged Elves ambushed the Humans at the Battle of Life's Spring, the usually neutral Untamed suddenly attacked the Winged Elves' holy land, forcing them to retreat and turn the tide of war.

Appearance
The untamed have evolved from various animals over time.

Venomancers have evolved tremendously from their animal counterparts, as they take on a humanoid form and only retain the tail and/or ears from creatures - fox (ears and tail), rabbit (ears), bat (ears and tail), deer (antlers), cat (ears and tail). All venomancers are females.

The Barbarian, however, has not evolved nearly as much as the venomancer has. They still retain most of their beastly form - tiger, lion, panda, wolf. They are taller than any other race. All barbarians are males.

City of the Lost


The main town of the Untamed. City of the Lost lies in western area of Perfect World, near the deserts. Other places of interest are Broken Bridge Village, which is south of the City of the Lost, Gate of Antiquity, which is southeast of the City of the Lost, and Wellspring Village, which is east of the City of the Lost. Den of Rabid Wolves, the dungeon for Untamed Call to Duty quest, is east from the City of the Lost.

Barbarian
Barbarian is the untamed warrior. Barbarians specialize in melee attacks. They have high physical defense and HP, but their attacks do less damage than a Blademaster. Barbarians have special ability to turn into a white tiger, which raises their physical defense and HP, but lowers attack. Barbarians are the best tanks in the game for physical attackers, but for certain bosses which use magical attacks, a magic-using class might be better for tanking. The role of barbarian in the squad is obviously tanking.

Venomancer
Venomancer is the untamed mage. Venomancers are the only class that can use tamed pets to attack. Depending on the build, their defenses and HP varies. Most common is the caster build, where Venomancers use their magical skills. Venomancers have ability to turn into a fox, which gives them stronger physical attacks and debuffs. Some Venomancers choose to go the melee, which is very different build from the caster. Venomancers also have strong Legendary Pets. Venomancers can be lurers, damage dealers and debuffers, or tanks with a pet.
