t has been ages since the last terrors befell the land that sent cities into turmoil, and set nations and kingdoms against one another.  In many places, what was once lush beautiful landscape had been made ugly. Mired in the grip of war, the land seemed to wither and die as if Gaia herself could not hold back the assault.  Men, Elves, Dwarves and more toiled and fought to keep the scourge from devastating their kingdoms.  In time, they succeeded.  But at what cost?  What price was paid?  Their lands near shattered, and uncountable lives lost.  With only the victory of pushing back the evil instead of squelching it for good.  In the years that have passed, stacking in history archives in page upon page, the people of Caldera have sought to rebuild their once great empires.  In the peace that had arrived they found themselves at a crossroads

ow a darker shadow has fallen over the world, threatening to extinguish all life - all hope. The drums of war play upon the winds once again - rising urgently towards the inevitable hour when the skies will rain fire - and the world will tremble before the coming of the darkness.  Your crossroads have come, where you must decide what path you will walk.  A merchant.  A scholar.  A wielder of the arcane.  Or will you fight with hand and steel directly against the opposition?  You must decide how you will face this threat in the world for there is no escape from the clutches.  Their power grows.  Their reach extending slowly into bordering lands.

verything you once knew should be forgotten.  Peace is drawing to a close.  The Age of War is upon us once again. Men of darkness and despair have came to the shores of Palarin to make war with their fellow man, men who have swept aside a thousand years of peace and prosperity, and awoke the long slept fires of hell. The Dread Lords have come....  It is in these days that we find ourselves living now. These that are the defining moments that will either make us Legends, or corrupt villains. The shadow of the Dread Lords threatens to tear the world asunder.  As you go to greet this threat, will you stand up and be counted among the righteous chosen, or does your heart rest in darkness and malice? Will you serve the gods of legend, or defy them and their wills? Now are the days in which the future fate of the world is in your hands. Choose the path you wish to travel, be blessed or be damned.
