Nexon Europe has launched a new update for MapleStory, which introduces a new playable character, Luminous. Luminous sealed away the Black Mage, but before the Black Mage was locked away, a sliver of the mage’s dark energy entered Luminous’ body, causing him to fall into a deep slumber. Luminous has awoken from his deep slumber and the war between light and darkness continues within.

Luminous is probably one of the most interesting characters to ever emerge within the Maple World, utilizing both Powerful Buffs and Devastating Dark Magic.

Players actually have to balance this character just like Ying and Yang. If the player only uses one side of his skills, the power of that used force will decrease, which requires the player to put effort into controlling this new hero, allowing a totally new approach on the previous character development in MapleStory.
