Theme:As a general overview, the theme is fantasy, set in a world populated by four main races. Each is based on the elements of earth, air, fire, and water, and the theory is that these races provided us with our mythology and folklore. The ocean-dwelling Atlanteans gave us stories of mer-folk, selkies, naiads and sirens; the forest-roaming Sylvans explained tales of the Fae and wood spirits; the Varati gave us the basis for trolls, dragons, and demons; and the Empyreans became our sun-gods, our storm-bringers, and our angels. The main setting is a city called Haven, wherein these four races can mingle and interact, for it is the only place where everyone is welcome. Situated by the sea and bordered by thick forests, the city is equally distant from each of the four kingdoms, and acts as a sanctuary, a meeting-place, a refuge, and a home to those who enter its walls. Before embarking on your virtual journey, you must create a character, choose a race, a background, perhaps an affiliation, and decide whether or not your character will have any affinity for magic. The following news files are especially important in making those decisions, though we recommend that you read all of them to familiarize yourself with this world:
