3 Races; Humans, Elves and Gargoyles.

Each race has it's own racial bonuses that set them apart from each-other, some of them are listed below.

Humans are tough, they are able to regenerate health at a faster rate.
They are also great foragers and can gather extra resources from the world when using certain skills.

Elves are imbued with the power of Night-Sight, enabling them to see in the dark at any time without magical aide.
They also have an increased resistance to the element of energy, a result of their deep connection to magic.

Gargoyles have the unique ability of flight and are able to travel at mounted speed while flying.
They have a ferocious tendancy which gives them the benefit of a significant damage bonus during combat.

Also known as Enchanting, Imbuing is the art of modifying your equipment's fundamental properties in order to improve your chances of survival in the world.

We took that concept, along with the original functionality from Ultima Online® and expanded on its' role in the world.

You can craft Imbuing Runes for most of the available properties on any piece of equipment.
Each Imbuing Rune has a rating, which changes depending on the intensity of the property the Imbuing Rune holds.

Imbuing Runes store the property information for later use, allowing you to sell or trade them.

When applying a rune to a piece of equipment, the property can be added or upgraded.
In order to remove properties from equipment, you must use the Unravelling craft to craft unravelling runes.

As you imbue your equipment, your equipment rating will increase.
Your items' Rating is the sum of all of the items' property Ratings.
Your overall Equipment Rating is the sum of all of your currently equipped items' Ratings.

Your Equipment Rating directly reflets the power of your equipment and can be used to gauge how you will fair in a battle against an opponent.

There is a large variety of resources available for the different Imbuing Runes.

Almost all of the resources can be obtained as loot from creatures and is guaranteed in loot from most Champion and Peerless bosses.
Resources can also be recovered when using Unravelling Runes to remove properties from items.

We have a unique vehicles feature that offers multiple modes of transport for you and your friends.

All available vehicles move smoothly in transit, that is of course, unless they're destroyed by an attack!
Some vehicles travel on water, some travel on land and some even fly!

Set sail on the boats and galleons and take to the water for an adventure on the High Seas®.

There are a wide range of boats available, from the tiny row-boat to the large galleons.

If you're feeling sea-sick, you can always take to the roads and countryside in an all-terrain vehicle.

Hit a bump in the road and need to get off the ground?
Catch a ride in a flying vehicle to get you where you need to be!

Whether you're looking for casual or intense Player vs Player action, our friendly battle service will deliver.

If you don't feel like participating, each battle has a spectator area that allows any one to look on as the battle takes place.

Our PvP battle service provides multiple scenarios with different goals, tactics and themes.

These battles allow you to queue up with other players in multiple teams.

There is no death in these battles, which means you can participate without worrying about being looted!
Preventing death also allows us to get you straight back in to the action after a short respawn delay.
It also allows you to take anything in to the battle, we don't strip you of your equipment or hand out special armor and weapons to make things even.

We believe that artifically altering the abilities and power of players in order to even the playing field is unfair, no one should be punished for spending time working for their top-tier equipment.
By managing your own equipment in these battles, you will always have a goal to improve your equipment and skills to match your opponents.

You can participate in the action by using the [Battles command.

There is a global leaderboard govorned by periods of time called seasons.

The duration of a season is usually 4 weeks (28 days) and at the end, rewards are given to the highest ranking participants on the leaderboard.
There are also rewards for runner-up ranks.

Whenever you participate in ranked battles, your statistics are tracked in your PvP profile, everything from wins and losses, deaths and resurrections, to damage done, healing received and points gained or lost.

Your PvP battle profile represents your rank on the global leader-board and can earn you special rewards at the end of each season.

Currently, there are 3 main battle scenarios, but there are many adaptions of them implemented in the battle service.

The Free For All (FFA) offers participants a no-holds-barred battle to the end, where the last participant left alive is declared the winner.

In some scenarios, the last two participants may trigger sudden-death mode, which will bombard the battle arena with devastating weather effects, dealing enough damage to turn up the heat!

Team Vs Team (TvT) battle scenarios can range from 1v1 duels, 2v2 skirmishes and even 10v10v10!
In fact, there are so many possible combinations that can be done with a TvT scenario, that we will never run out of potential combinations.
We can assign up to 2.4 billion separate teams to any battle and each team can have a different maximum capacity, meaning even handicap battles are possible.
Teams can also be allied, meaning they have to work together to achieve an end goal.

The winner of a TvT is usually decided by the last team left alive, though there are many other ways to decide the outcome.

Capture The flag (CTF) is a special variant of the TvT scenario in which multiple teams compete to, you guessed it, capture a flag.

CTF battles can often be intense, they require focus and special tactics, you have to think outside the box.

The winner of a CTF is usually decided by the team that reaches the maximum capture goal set out by the battle.

We offer fully-spawned, challenging dungeon scenarios suitable for all play-styles.

You will find many dungeons throughout the world of Pandora.
From the feeble advances of shuffling Zombies, up to the hoards of the Abyssal Legion, many challenges await in those dark caves.

If the world dungeons don't satify your lust for a challenge, try taking on one of the world Champions!

You will need to prepare to prove yourself worthy before a champion will show itself and fight you, this usually means having to fend off hoards of their minions, good luck!

Peerless bosses have no equal, they are unique and very dangerous.

Offering great rewards, heroes often find themseves locked in combat with a creature so dangerous, it could be the end if they make one wrong move!
Group therapy is strongly recommended.

We offer a wide range of standard, unique and customizable houses, each with unique features.

You can place up to 10 houses per account.

All houses can be assigned to a special category by the house owner once every 7 days.

Each available category; Residential, Industrial, Commercial and Military offer different benefits.

Residential properties are the practical choice for any casual player, offering a wider variety of bonuses at a reduced amount.

Industrial properties are best suited to crafters, offering a decent storage bonus and a bonus to all crafting skills.

Commercial properties are perfect for the budding sales-person up to the multi-million-gold merchant, offering a large storage bonus and significantly reduced vendor cost.

Military properties are ideal for setting up an offensive or defensive position, offering a bonus to all combat skills, stats and resistances.

Yes, you can paint your house. Yes, the entire structure all at once, including the wall and floors!

Painting your house is easy, all you need is a Tub of House Paint and a house.

The Tubs of House Paint can be found in many places in the world, you may find them in the loot of some creatures too.
