World of Warcraft Classes

When you create a new character in World of Warcraft, you need to choose a race and then choose a class.  There are several different classes, not all of which are available to all races.  A character's class will dictate the skills and spells can be learned during the course of the game.  Each class also has certain innate abilities and advantages that need to be considered before selection.  Some classes are well suited for solo adventures while others are better suited to travel with a group.
