The abbreviation Alt is a shortening of the term "Alternate Character". It is often used to refer to another game character of yours which you are either not currently logged in on, or not currently chatting from. It may also be used to refer to the character you are chatting from, as in: "I can build you that weapon, but not with this alt."
Synonyms include "toon" (short for "cartoon"), and "avatar".
You can create a maximum of six alts of any race/profession combination on each Earth & Beyond account that you have; however you can have many accounts.
