This guide will help people learn more about the different clans and classes of 9Dragons. (Infos mainly gathered from IGN and Acclaim websites.)
Mi-Gong - Sacred Flower Black clan - Female only
Headquarters location : Cavernous Lair, Shanxi Province
The Mi-Gong were a race of warrior women. They trained in the deadly arts of assassination, using their beauty and femininity to get close to their targets. They use their skills for evil, and because they were, in history, an exclusively female clan, anyone wishing to play this clan must take a female character.
Mi-Gong fighting skills are based on the concept of "circles" and "changes". They have cunning minds, and are willing to be patient in a fight. This gives them an advantage against weak-minded or impatient opponents. Overall, their skills require less internal chi strength to generate power than other styles. Mi-Gong can use special mind controlling skills such as seduction. Daggers and flying wheels are the main weapons of the Mi-Gong. As assassins, they prefer weapons that can be hidden or disguised as harmless everyday objects. Players can train their skills in accordance with the weapons they choose.
Mistress of War(Warrior type) - As you would expect from the name, Mistress of war is a very belligerent class! They like to get very up close and personal. They prefer to use flying wheels from a very close range to literally slice up their opponents. Not only are they deadly in close range combat, but they can also use a few mind control skills as disciples of Mi-Gong.
Mistress of Spirit(Caster type) - Watch out for these ladies because they?re great at mind control skills. They can use their chi powers to deal long-range attacks. But in contrast to their high inner strength, they are physically relatively weak. Not that that stops them from dominating all around them!
Mistress of Heaven(Healer type) - They?re the most intelligent and considerate disciples of Mi-Gong. They use their skills to help other disciples. They are adept at healing and increasing other people?s attacks. But don?t mistake gentleness for weakness! Their dagger skills are legendary, and many an opponent, thinking the battle won, has found a black dagger sticking out of his heart!
Mistress of Cloud(Hybrid type) - The Mistresses of cloud tend to be the scouts of the Mi-Gong. Their skills cover all aspects of Mi-Gong fighting skills, and this generalist nature allows them to explore strange environments by themselves. While not as individually skilled as any of the other types, they can learn dagger fighting, healing, mind controlling and long-range skills. However, they need to choose their skills carefully because they are seeking to balance the entire spectrum of Mi-Gong abilities.

More Introduction
Upon founding Sacred Flower, The Mistress of Chaos imbued her occult knowledge upon four chosen disciples, and granted them each a new title: Mistress of War, to wield her aggressive double wheels; Mistress of Heaven, to assist her with incantations and defend her with daggers; Mistress of Spirit, to wield enchantments confounding their opponents, and Mistress of Cloud, who would know all of these arts, lest The Mistress herself should fall. All Sacred Flower disciples must choose the path of one of these four leaders.
Mistress of War Mistresses of War are imbued with the aggressive nature of the Holy Mistress, and will step forward in battle as bravely as any man. They train with the deadly Flying Wheel and Butterfly Wheel combat techniques, and may also become proficient with charms of Enchanting Spirits to confound their opponents. * Because Life is of paramount importance, Constitution is their most important concern. Essence is harder to develop for them, and Wisdom is not as important as other attributes.
Mistress of Heaven The wisest among the first four disciples was the Mistress of Heaven, who was taught all that The Holy Mistress knew of the true nature of The Land. Disciples on her path learn quick Dagger Techniques and Blessing Arts of the Mistress. They also learn Summoning Spirits to protect others and Heavenly Spirits to fortify themselves. * Essence and Wisdom are key for this role. Constitution is harder to develop for them.
Mistress of Cloud Self-sufficiency was perhaps the greatest gift The Holy Mistress wished to offer the women of The Land. In supplication, Cloud disciples learn a degree of each of the clan?s combined martial arts. They practice Dagger Techniques, Arts of the Mistress, Fortifying Chi Kung of Heavenly Spirits, and learn to cast devastating ranged blasts of Yin Energy Freezing Spirit. * They emphasize Constitution and Essence, and use Kung Fu for offense and Chi Kung for defensive with equal skill. Wisdom is harder for them to develop.
Mistress of Spirit Mistresses of Spirit are said to be capable of casting enchantments upon an opponent?s very soul, using The Art of Enchanting Spirits. This is a powerful system of Chi Kung that combines Sonic Arts with The Holy Mistresses? Divine Sorcery. Spirits also learn offensive Kung Fu Palm Techniques of Freezing Spirits and protective Chi Kung of Summoning Spirits. * They place emphasis on Essence and Wisdom. Strength is harder for them to develop, and they are ill-suited to melee combat.
