Ashen Empires

Race

The human kingdom of Krythan has controlled most of the known world since the time of the Rune War. Humans are clever and resourceful, but easily distracted. They have no special abilities or disadvantages. Human characters begin with a slightly more respectable reputation that other races.

Night Elves (or the Astari) are slender and nimble. They occupy towns throughout the forest region of Darkwood. Aloof and enigmatic, they emerge mostly at night. Night Elves dodge better than other races, and can see in the dark - but they can?t stand as much physical injury. Astari characters begin with a neutral reputation.

Orcs are descended from the invader?s army in the Rune War. Many live in nomadic bands, but a few Orc villages are found in the Plains of Krog. Orcs are resistant to poison, and need less time to rest than other races. Because of their violent tendencies, Orc characters begin with a more disreputable reputation than the other races.

Skill

There is no limit to the amount of skills you may learn in Ashen Empires.

There are several ways of discovering new skills...
1) You will be given access to a skill when you create your Ashen Empires account, either a tradeskill (creating items, and reselling for in-game money), or a combat skill, which will aid you in defeating foes for treasure.
2) You will be taught how to use certain skills by tutors on Valinor Island.
3) Reading books and trying out new things in Ashen Empires... you might discover something new.
4) You may be introduced to a new skill by another member of the community.

You may start a new skill at any time.

Do not hesistate to ask a member of the community if you are stuck. There will always be people willing to help.

If you choose to take a break from manually learning skills... try and find quests around the land... a set quest may give you a large amount of experience in a given skill, whereas a dynamic quest will give you experience pool (press the "S" or "K" [with WASD key setup] key in-game), may be distributed to a skill of your choice, without manual training.

Classes

Do you wish to duel monsters in close combat, or stay in quiet quarters practicing the art of chemistry or leatherworking? There?s something for every taste in Ashen Empires.

Whether its cooking which catches your eye, or manufacturing quality clothing, you will be instructed how to begin your skills.

Note that there?s more to your character class than a single skill. Skills complement each other, the higher leveled you are in one skill, may effect another. For example, you may need to level up your Milling skill in order to obtain planks to make higher level equipment using Carpentry.

Your "orbs" level in Strength, Intellegence and Dexterity also improve certain skills, make sure you tailor these to your preference.

Alignment

There?s several alignments in Ashen Empires. This is your "reputation" in Ashen Empires. The color of your name symbols the following alignments:

Crusader*, Divine, Good, Neutral, Evil, Criminal, Scourge*
* = Flashing
NPC or Monster
GM or Developer

Crusader: Pure divine. You have been divine for an extended period of time, and are favoured by the gods. You are also entitled to a discount in good-town shops.

Divine: You are respected greatly by the "good" towns in Ashen Empires, though guards in "evil towns" will attempt to attack you if you enter their territory. You are also entitled to a discount in good-town shops.

Good: You are respected in "good" towns, and you are allowed in "evil" towns. You are also entitled to a discount in good-town shops.

Neutral: You are allowed in both "good" and "evil" towns.

Evil: You are allowed in both "good" and "evil" towns. You may only purchase items and "evil" towns.

Criminal: You are only allowed in "evil" towns. You will be killed by guards if you are found around a "good" town.

You lose alignment by attacking town NPCs and other players (an exception to this rule is if you attack a criminal or scourge). If you cause disruption in town or loot another player, you will be classed as a "temporary" criminal. While your name flashes in and out of the color grey, if you enter the area in or around a "good" town, you will be attacked and killed by guards.

Casting aid spells on criminals will affect your alignment.
