Ankhoron a new original world full of magic and heroes of immense power.
Ankhoron – The world of Ankhoron was once the cradle of humanity. It is home to the cities of the Seven Empires that were formed around the sacred magics of the dragons who once ruled the world. The texture of Ankhoron’s great continents is as varied as the people who live upon its land, from its towering mountain ranges to its vast and violent seas.
Ashridge – Our story is set in the northern city of Ashridge was once prosperous because of its vibrant farming and mining industries. But as it happens with all things golden, Ashbridge could not stay. When rogue mages discovered a buried trove of ancient necromantic spells, they unleashed a dark magic that poisoned the land. Great buildings were abandoned and crumbled to dust. Peaceful creatures mutated into grotesque monsters. The dead rose from their graves to seek vengeance on the living. Now the city that represented a bright future stands as a bitter reminder of past glory.
