Common Heroes will have 4 basic body parts: Hair, Eyes, Mouth and Skin Color. Some heroes with higher rarity can have 2 additional body parts, scars and tattoos. Heroes with more body parts will have higher base stats, they have more chances to get special missions in the game. The career system in the game will also be related to the character’s Body part. Therefore, you should prioritize choosing heroes with more body parts and higher rarity. &#x20;

Heroes who own a body part with the rarity of <mark style="color:yellow;">**Legendary**</mark> and <mark style="color:orange;">**Mythical**</mark> will have more special abilities than normal heroes. They can learn special skills or even separate hidden skills that correspond to each body part.&#x20;

**Note:** The <mark style="color:orange;">**Mythical**</mark> rarity body part is only available on **Human** and **Orc** heroes. The highest rarity of **Elf** and **Fairy** heroes is <mark style="color:yellow;">**Legendary**</mark>. The highest rarity of **Dragon**, **Angel** and **Demon** races is <mark style="color:purple;">**Epic**</mark>.
