Line 12:
One of the primary features of the game is the abundance of Classes that one can pick and choose from. Since classes are treated much like any other item in your inventory (with the only stipulation that you ''must'' have a class and a weapon equipped at all times), it is quite possible for your character to have many different classes (as opposed to ''just'' one or two for the entirety of his or her in-game career like in other MMO games), with the only major limitations being that you can only have one class equipped at any given time and you cannot change classes (or any other items in your inventory for that matter) while bonking monsters in mid-battle.
Alongside the events of the main storyline, ''AQWorlds'' also hosts weekly updates consisting of items, a player suggestion shop, random holidays (like ''Taco Day'' and ''Pancake Day''), and their world-famous Live Events. They so far have had six Friday the 13th Events (all of which had special guests [[Voltaire (
According to Cysero, [[Arc Attack]] (known for their third-place victory in 2010 ''America's Got Talent'') became part of a musical number near the Doomwood finale. Other live events which also include rare items were held featuring the Third Birthday event with [[They Might Be Giants]], the 2012 ''Heroes Heart Day'' event with Mia J. Park, and [[The Magic Thief]] event starring Conn, Benet, Rowan, Pettivox, and the Duchess.

** Here's one: The Book of Lore that every player gets in their first quest that's used to track down their history? {{spoiler|Well let's flash forward to the Doomwood temple and it's used to translate an ancient book written in Dragon language that tells of the Elemental Champions. By EATING it.}}
Line 139:
* [[Composite Character]]: Ryoku is based on both Goku from [[Dragon Ball]] and Ryu from [[Street Fighter]].
** Drakath is both AQ and DF Drakath since he has his AQ Dragon Wings and possibly his AQ Streath and he has his DF Human Half
*** Jorxlol, for those who have read the Forgotten Realms series is a complete and utter expy of Jarlaxle, the infamous rainbow-cape wearing rogue drow and leader of Breagan D'arthe. He is depicted as bald and wearing an eyepatch in-game, but sadly without his epic rainbow cape or feathered hat.
* [[Confusion Fu]]: The new Chaos Shaper class has this.

Line 240:

* [[The Kingdom]]: The Kingdom of Swordhaven
Line 425:
* [[One-Winged Angel]]: Deady does this in the 2011 Friday the 13th event when Lord Krom Wrath calls him pathetic for hiding in his teddy-bear disguise, insulting him for his lack of a sense of style and complying with his desire to see his true form before doing so. When the player asks why he doesn't do it all the time, Deady mentions that it's hard to get his real form back to the bear outfit.
** Midway through the final showdown with Baron Luca in the 2011 Mogloween event, he takes on a monstrous form that would do [[Castlevania|Dracula]] proud.

Naturally, just the fact that he/she says "You'll pay for that!" is enough to let Lionfang himself know that he's in BIG TROUBLE.}}
** The Great Godfather of Soul also says this to the hero after he/she wins the /Dance /Dance Minigame and therefore takes his title of dancing champ from him. This is where Chaos Lord Discordia is mentioned for the first time ever - the Godfather himself vows to make him/her pay for stealing his title away from him with Discordia's help.
** Also, in the recent 2011 Friday the 13th event:
{{quote|'''One-Armed Bandit''': My gang is all over this area. You'll never make it to that ship! (to Voltaire) You with the guitar... this is all your fault. I'll get you for this!}}
*** To be fair, he said that to Voltaire because he blames him for helping the hero defeat him. He keeps true to his promise to get revenge on him in the cutscene before fighting against Yahorneth, Lord Krom Wrath's pet, by ambushing him and dragging him somewhere to beat up on him... but Voltaire survives the fight with him while the hero is defeating Yahorneth, and shows up alive revealing that he got the One-Armed Bandit's mechanical claw in place of one of his hands in the process of his fight with him.
Line 561:
* [[Tomato Surprise]]: {{spoiler|Artix, Champion of Darkness.}}
** {{spoiler|Gravelyn, Champion of Light.}}
