Arx, After the Reckoning
Arx is a game set in a low to mid-fantasy world, where magic is more legend and superstition than daily reality. The game itself is set in the capital city of the Compact, an alliance of the five Great Houses who hold sway over the continent of Arvum. The lands of Arvum are wild and sparsely settled, and away from the walls and settlements of the House-ruled fortifications there is great danger and mystery. Tribes of unaligned Abandoned (or shav'arvani) roam and raid the great forests and wildlands between the settled cities, and beyond the borders of the known lands even greater mysteries lie.

About This Game
For a thousand years the people of Arvum believed the old legends were metaphor: demons and elves and dragons were poetic ways of describing human threats. Then something old began to wake up, and the legends started to become literal. A few people begin to notice the pattern—and to realize that the myths were not forgotten but stolen, stripped away by a dark force that has been fighting humanity since before recorded history and that thrives in the ignorance its removal created. As they piece together what was taken, the beings who took it stir to maintain their hold on a world they believe they own entirely.
