The Story Thus Far

The King is dead.

After the Ringfall, all that separated his once disparate people has collapsed. The threat of the endless tide of the Nothing has been eliminated, but it has completely destroyed many of the former Outer Rings. Yet the Great Ash Desert remains and the jewels of great cities such as Ba'zeel, Kha'esh and Ephia's Well still stand. What's left of the world is a barren wasteland, but there may yet be hope for restoration as many search for a way to restore life to the sands. How hard must a heart be to survive in a world where water is more valuable than gold?

The King is dead. His world is dying. Who can save it?

Your character's backstory is ultimately up to you, the starting options in the OOC starter room allowing you to create a character tailored to a new world and playing through the prologue will provide an immersive experience introducing you to our custom setting. You may choose to play a refugee of the destroyed Outer Rings (recommended) or otherwise choose to play an "Awoken", a former resident of the Forgotten Realms living in the years between 1370 and 1375. No matter the origin, you find yourself stumbling out into the dunes from a recent ash storm - a refugee lost in a strange new land.
