| Description |
The basic aim of this server is twofold: first, to simulate accurately a complex custom setting, and second, to capture the feeling of pen-and-paper role playing at its finest!
Rules are relatively few on World of Abred, and players of PW will find most of our rules fairly standard: keep OOC chat to a minimum, respect DMs and fellow players, keep PvP consensual, and play to have fun, etc.
World of Abred is an RP PW set in a custom world with a strong Celtic flavor (kind of like Guinness--the Celtic flavor part, at least). The setting itself is 25+ years in the making, and stems, like so many excellent settings, from various pen-and-paper roleplaying campaigns. Some details on setting are already available on the forums with more forthcoming (as more scrawled notes in pencil continue to be converted to text).
The DM quest is truly the heart of this server, and DM activity is frequent (with a bare minimum of one major DM event a week). If you play here regularly expect frequent DM interaction and spontaneous mini-events. This regularity of DM involvement is essential for recapturing the essence of pen-and-paper role play.
We truly believe that you will be impressed by the consistency and intricacies of the setting, and urge longtime pen and paper role players and eager newbies alike to come give us a try!
