In this page, you can read about many of the different unused and cut content, more specifically, game content that was available during the closed beta for Korean MapleStory, content that never fully made it into the game or content that was around the testing servers only.  
This article covers unused and cut content from MapleStory, focusing on incomplete implementations, test server exclusives and shortly-lived content that never made it to be playable.

== Closed Beta NPCs ==
== Unused NPCs ==
In the oldest available closed beta client for Korean MapleStory (dating back around 2003), there were four different NPCs that weren't being used at all. They have functions defined in the game's files, dialogue and quests assigned, but they were most probably used prior to this version, or never implemented in the game. Nothing much is known about the NPCs, and there's not much information about them in old korean forums for the game.
=== Closed Beta NPCs ===
To read information about the Korean Closed Beta NPCs, you can read the article specifically related to that era of the game: [[Korean Closed Beta#NPCs | Korean Closed Beta NPCs]]


Something interesting about the unused NPCs, is that they have low numbers as IDs, probably signaling how early in development they were added to the game.

반스 ''(Banseu)'' is an NPC with a green uniform and a staff with a golden top. His hat seems to be in a shape of a mushroom. He seems to be some kind of guard, together with [[#에블라 | 에블라 ''(Ebeulla)'']], having really similar uniforms.
''(Romanized: Rupert)'' is an NPC that shares sprite with [https://bbb.hidden-street.net/npc/magician-job-instructor Magician Job Instructor]. He was first found in Happyville, before El Nath was introduced in the game.[[#ref1|[1]]] He was moved to El Nath once it was released.[[#ref2|[2]]] He has the quest value of ''job_3th'', and contrary to the previous NPCs that had a quest value, this one is unique, was never reused, and in the [[BrasilMS_Server_Leak | BrasilMS Server Leak]] the script for it is totally empty.
 
Has the quest value of ''fighter'' in the game files, so he was likely used for the Swordsman job change during the closed beta.
 


This NPC was used on Tespia during the test of 3rd job advancement, and was used to facilitate the job advancement before the quest for it was introduced to the game.


Banseu has three dialogues:

There was a short-lived rebirth system that took place in the Japanese MapleStory test server in 2011[[#ref3|[3]]] where players, once reaching 120, could rebirth into any other class under the same tree-branch. Adventurers could choose any adventurer class, Cygnus Knights could choose any Cygnus Knight. The rest of classes weren't available to rebirth and it was limited only to the previously named. This system never made it out of the test server.


에블라 ''(Ebeulla)'' is an NPC with a green uniform, really similar to [[#반스 | 반스 ''(Banseu)'' ]], but with the difference that he looks more like a warrior because of his polearm.
To do this, you would need to talk to your original first job advancement NPC, and you would be teleported to a White Map (similar to the GM map) with the NPC Asia on it. There, you will be able to select your desired new job, and be able to change your looks and gender. Your skills, AP and SP would carry over the new job. To do this however, you would to buy a special item on the Cash Shop for 1,000 NX[[#ref4|[4]]].
Has the quest value of ''magician'', probably an early Magician job change NPC, before Grendel was introduced into the game. Despite looking more like a warrior, he seems to have the quest value for the Magician quest.


Ebeulla has the following dialogues:
These two videos ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Up5yG06ed4 Adventurer Rebirth], [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ethkWczFIjE Cygnus Knights Rebirth]) show more details about the way the system works.

Something interesting about his dialogues, is the fact he mentions 엠블라 ''(Embla)''. This NPC is nowhere to be found in the files, so it's probably referencing a way more early NPC. Though, there's no way to confirm this as of now.

There was a short-lived rebirth system that took place in the Japanese MapleStory test server in 2011[3] where players, once reaching 120, could rebirth into any other class under the same tree-branch. Adventurers could choose any adventurer class, Cygnus Knights could choose any Cygnus Knight. The rest of classes weren't available to rebirth and it was limited only to the previously named. This system never made it out of the test server.

To do this, you would need to talk to your original first job advancement NPC, and you would be teleported to a White Map (similar to the GM map) with the NPC Asia on it. There, you will be able to select your desired new job, and be able to change your looks and gender. Your skills, AP and SP would carry over the new job. To do this however, you would to buy a special item on the Cash Shop for 1,000 NX[4].

These two videos (Adventurer Rebirth, Cygnus Knights Rebirth) show more details about the way the system works.
