The races
ALfheim Online features nine different player races, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Players are given the option to choose from these nine races when creating their avatars at the beginning of the game.[1]
The goal of each race was to be the first to reach the top of the World Tree[1] and to meet the Fairy King Oberon so as to be reborn as the higher species, the Alfs, giving them unlimited flight time.[2] But after it was revealed at the end of the Fairy Dance arc that Alfs did not actually exist, this goal was abandoned and replaced with the new goal of clearing the newly incorporated New Aincrad, after Ymir introduced the «Floating Castle Aincrad» update to ALO.

Inhabitants of the Frost Areas of the North, the brown-styled Gnomes are the largest of the fairy races and specialize in Earth Magic. |

| Alfs | The rumored Alfs are the legendary race blessed by the Fairy King Oberon with unlimited flight. It is believed that the first of the available starting races to reach the top of the World Tree and gain an audience with the Fairy King would be elevated to this special race, but it was revealed to be false. | |
| Navigation Pixies | Pixies (also known as Navigation or Private Pixies) are the exclusive race for AIs that serve as a supportive navigation program for the players. These pixies are given to a limited amount of people who have won them in a lottery at the beginning of the game.[2] |
