Basic Info
A massively multiplayer online RPG from newly formed development studio, Shadowpool Studios. Trials of Ascension features a dynamic online world with 18 different mythical races coexisting in a land in turmoil. Take part in campaigns, level up your skills, fight in complex interactive realtime battles, interact with every object in the game environment, and explore a fully-rendered 3D world drawn with advanced graphics techniques to bring the land of TerVarus to life. (This game is no longer in service)
TerVarus is populated by a myriad range of civilized creatures, from the tiny and delicate pixie to the towering and mighty dragon. There are eighteen player races to choose from, each of whom have their own unique aptitudes and abilities, as well as their own preferences and rivalries.
A permanent death is not the only way for a character to end their days. The mighty often leave themselves a permanent legacy in the world in the form of a rare and potent artifact. These relics of the departed are known to bestow a wide range of mysterious powers upon those who are fortunate enough to find them.
Every character in TerVarus is unique in their skills and abilities; gone are the days when one's powers could be summed up by reference to 'class'. Player characters can train themselves in virtually any activity that they might wish to pursue, and there is no end to the dizzying heights that they might reach. Of course, mastery in one area comes at the price of competence in another, so players must train wisely.
The faiths of TerVarus are integral to the world, and no one can avoid their touch entirely. The rewards for devoted service can be great, and the collective power of the masses gathering to worship can power minor miracles, which the gods themselves channel through their shrines and priests to aid their followers or beset their enemies.
On your way to mastering your selected skills there is an ever present chance that your character could realize an innovative way to improve upon his skill. Be it a new combat maneuver, an improved method of grinding grain or even the invention of a never before seen ship, your character has the potential to unlock mysteries that could change the future of TerVarus forever. The question is, what will you do with your new found discovery? Will you keep it to yourself and reap the profits or will you teach your new innovation to others in hopes of bettering the world? With the innovation system, information becomes a very valuable commodity.
The gods are not the only source of magical power, and the gifted can pursue their own individual mastery of the arcane. This is a dangerous path, for while the rewards can be great, the dangers to body and soul that must be braved have claimed many a would-be magician.
TerVaran combat will be unique unto itself. The 'Caveman' model of hit and be hit while standing still is dead in TerVarus, and characters can perform a myriad of combat maneuvers to make the perfect fighting character according to their needs and style. Nor is the art of war limited to personal combat: Ship to ship engagements may be both fierce and deadly, and siege warfare will be an important asset to those who harbor ambitions of conquest.
The world itself provides challenges, from environmental and weather effects to the fact that individual plants, animals, and other resources are scarce in some regions and more common in others. A wise explorer will prepare appropriately before venturing forth into a hostile region.
Gone are the days where the gold piece is king, and where they are more common than the grains of sand upon a beach. Player characters are dependent upon one another to create and trade the goods they need, and a stable economy requires many craftsmen. What value do goods command? That is solely between the parties that are involved in the exchange.
When you confront danger in TerVarus, you literally are taking your life in your hands. While player characters are hardy, death leaves a permanent mark upon their soul, weakening their link to the world of the living. Should misfortune befall too often, that link will be lost, and the character's soul will depart... forever. With this daunting thought comes the tradeoff that only permanent death can offer in the form of a barrier against high level character stagnation and economic bloat.
Players will build and manage the towns and empires of TerVarus. Governments and civilizations, from cruel dictatorships to benign democracies, evil kingdoms to knightly realms, will all be possible for players to create and run. Settlement diversity and style will be limited only by one's imagination. Individual citizens of a settlement can build their own homes and businesses within its domain, and a city has a few additional options to enhance its civic infrastructure.
