Character setup is done via a hud. All characters are human though many fantasy elements exist within the natural genetics of humans on Essealas. Each character is either from one of the twelve city-states or is a foundling. The ideal character is an agent who currently working for one of the city-states and living in Arcovia.
- World Backstory
Essealas is a continent in the same universe as the Kingdoms of Comraich. This world is a low magic medieval fantasy world based on the fusion of historical earth folklore and a wide selection of other low magic fantasy worlds such as Game of Thrones and Lord of the Rings. The earth-approximate time period is 1100-1300 with a wider range for fashion and technology. It is intended to be a flexible and familiar setting.
- Character Backstory
The ideal character is a lesser member of a noble house, wealthy merchant house, politically savvy guild, clan or military structure from one of the twelve city-states. While not all of the city-states have nobility, those that do have at least 200-300 different noble houses, and it is perfectly acceptable for someone to play a member of a noble house.
- No royalty or equivalent is acceptable.
If you choose to play the leader of a noble house, merchant house, guild clan or military organization, please ask yourself why that character is in Arcovia, rather than back home taking care of business himself. Don't set yourself up with a premise that limits your characters role-play options.
- Arcovia
The story takes place in the central city-state of Arcovia. Only the city-state of Arcovia is represented in-world.
All characters are human, tho many of the bloodlines in individual city-states have unusual hair, eye, skin and ear traits. Please check the appearance section for your chosen city-state.
It is possible to play a character who is not a member of any city-state -- these types of people are called Foundlings. Foundlings are primarily nomads who wander the continent of Essealas. Everyone else considers themselves to be a member of one of the city-states even if they do not live within its walls regularly.
- Agents vs Occupations vs Slaves
