Abstract: A free to play, extensive MMORPG playable from a browser and updated daily.
Genre: Fantasy
Engine: N/A



www.afar.ws
No downloads - play in a browser.



Ever growing, however some general stats:
- 300+ maps
- 200+ items
- 5 quests (more in the works)



Afar has quite an extensive story - in my head. This is going to form the basis of quests eventually (a major storyline piece is in the works at the moment) but it isn't in the game much yet.

The main story arc being followed is that of Tiben - the main town in the starter area - and it's aims of expansion every way possible. Every now and then soldiers march out to capture new lands for the good of the town. The player winds up in the middle of some of these - the Western lands, the Northern teritories, and eventually to Ivesar itself.

and that is that, plain and simply, we owe our existence purely to the boredom of the old Gods.

They have since left our lands although some would argue otherwise, or that they can never truly be gone because as ascended beings they do not exist in the same way you or I would. I however disagree, and can see that they have plainly left our mortal realms.

This now concludes the chapter and I shall finish with a timeline running from the day the world was created up until the present day.

I.L (Ivesus' Land)

999 Present Day
998 Tiben explorers begin to move North East
947 End of the Western Wars
The Westerners resort to Vampirism
942 The Western Wars begin
Great Western Wall is erected
935 Humans arrive in Tiben by boat
902 Humans pupulate the Damascan desert
891 Volcano at Ivesar; survivors exodus by boat and foot
760 Popn' of Ivesar: 100,000
657 Popn' of Ivesar: 10,000
274 Ivesar founded, a township in the old South

0 Ivesus first preaches in Sellesby village

B.E (Before Enlightenment)

20 The Gods get bored and decide to no longer exist
27 The Gods create magic but don't tell anybody
302 Fall of the Sedisian Empire; Dalks are free
349 Invasion of Dalkland by the Sedisians
437 The Sedisian Empire is formed
1647 The Gods decide they now exist and create the world

CHAPTER 7 - THE FUTURE

One can only speculate on the events of the future but it is clear Tiben is intent on expanding, with vanguards heading North-East and plans to head West retaking land lost in the Western Wars not completely out of the question.

Personally I believe Tiben will attempt to invade Straupuft and the desert cities once the time is right.

There is no doubt in my mind that there is a lot of land that can be recovered from the old city of Ivesar, which now lies in ruin. The chance of another volcano is unlikely, and I am sure that wizards will find a way to combat the effects and reclaim the land.

This is an MMORPG. The main features (although there is tons to do, just a little hard to find sometimes - working on making it more logical)-

- Sim Player Versus Player combat
- Sideview battle system
- Inventory
- Item crafting
- Merchant skills
- Spells and spell roster
- Quests, quest journal
- Character customisation
- Probably a lot more important stuff that I've forgotten about and will get back into play eventually.



Internet Explorer users will not have the fancy borders that Firefox users get due to IE not conforming to standards. This game is aimed at the Firefox browser, but should work in Google Chrome as well. When a standalone client is made it will be using the Firefox browser.

Server Migration

Please note that Afar will be inaccessible for between 1 and 24 hours from now, due to necessary moving of servers. I can't give you an estimate because it's due to the DNS configuration, which will take up to 24 hours depending on how many changes are in the queue. That's out of my hands unfortunately.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

After the migration vengeance-rpg.com will not work. The new permanent address is afar.ws. Please update your bookmarks if you haven't already!
