Hi! I'm new here and I'd like to recieve a little bit of information about what is happening now in this lands, what factions can I find and all this stuff. Please, I'd like it to be information that can be read quickly. I'm so anxious to start playing that I don't wanna lose here much time. Thanks in advance.

You might want to wait a bit. The DM's are doing a major overhaul.
The only places open right now are high level. And the DM's took away all magic items.

Oh, and it's a pleasure to meet ya.

The server is in a state of limbo right now. But please feel free to sit down in our refugee camp in your prison rags and get to know people and the general story of the day

Depends on how you look at it, you will either find that you're quite lucky arriving at this moment or quite unfortunate.

If you are looking for action, until the DMs complete the tedious work on going through all the different maps and adjusting them to fit the recent changes in gameplay, you're out of luck - all the low-level areas are inaccessible at this time.

If you are looking for roleplay, almost anybody loging on the server right now will be interested if through simple fact of having hardly anything else to do

Of course there's much fewer people recently...

As far as the storyline is concerned, the "players" recently suffered... let us call it Pyrrhic victory

The short of the story is that most people with allegiance to Dasaria (the realm all players are denizens of) ended up captured or dead. A number of adventurers are gathering near the recently recaptured capital of Dasaria, Dasar (d'uh

)), posession of which is in itself split between two Dasarian factions (alignment based).

Until something changes, feel free to inquire with players in the game - that's about the best way to establish your character. And the recent events give quite a number of possibilities regarding the reason why your character does not know those things... and what their history is

Hope to see you in game

Just for clarification, is it really alignment based? Or does it depend on your patron Deity as before? I think there's quite a difference there... if someone could clear that up for me, I'd really appreciate it, since Ash has been gone for so long.

It's Deity based. Either way it sucks.

Never liked the Nergal thing, never will.

Well, Ithilian, meet Depheant. He is one of our more 'colorful' DMs. You will learn to love him or hate him eventually...but i think he is just one cute fuzzy bunny of love. Makes me want to cuddle. Hug him, and hold him, and feed him, and call him George.

Right now, the factions are all up in the air it seems. There are lots of dieties to look at, some with larger followings than others. Right now the big issue at hand is we of Dasaria have lost a major battle to Varana, while Peribo the War Profiteer is making a small fortune.

So you will be issued standard rags and go-go boots, and placed in jail. Here you are expected to break out...which should be done to bad 70s music in your head.

Your best bet is to find the topics in the world background posts, and read up. That should give you most of the general knowledge.

Or you could just worship Dram, I hear he's a really generous diety. Sacrifices in the form of jewelry or gold are also welcome.
