Heed the Call

Brave adventurers are gathering from mysterious realms unknown, crossing the dimensional divide. Traveling to the ancient island of Dereth, they come to answer ASHERON'S CALL.

Venture into a completely new role-playing experience: in-depth, massively multi-player world of mystical combat, challenging strategy and suspenseful exploration. Embark on a journey into a labyrinth of subterranean catacombs filled with perilous secrets. Enter untamed wilderness. Penetrate the heart of mystic darkness.

To prosper, you will need to forge new alliances with the powerful. Master new skills. And fight your last breath to stave off the unimaginable evil that is gathering.

Huge Environments. Over 500 square miles provide a scale and scope never before seen in a multi-player RPG. Mountain glaciers, swamps, subterranean dungeons, desert waste lands - all combine to make this a truly "living world".

Strategic Alliances Are the Way to Power. A unique allegiance system encourages experienced and new players to battle side-by-side, adding an entirely new social dimension to gameplay.

Beware of Monsters Known & Unknown. From the gigantic Lugian to the 3-foot Mite, you'll battle dozens of completely original monsters. Encounter are creatures like the mysterious Virindi and insect-like Olthoi - plus, the ever more savage monsters that are continually drawn to Dereth.

Create Your Own Unique Characters. Select everything from facial features to heritage, clothing and more. The possibilities for new characters are virtually limitless.

Spell Alchemy. A unique "magical economy" means the less often a spell is used, the more powerful it is. To prosper, you must constantly experiment to discover new spell combinations.

An Ever Evolving World. An original and constantly world means you'll never know what challenges you'll face next - like a 40 foot Monouga!
