In the game of Altaire, one can take control of an Alter, which can be one of nine races, and travel all across the land doing the things one wishes they could do in real life. One can travel across the land and meet new people, battle fierce monsters, take on rigorous missions and quest, join or create a guild where you and your comrades fight as one, and much more. Your actions shape the world around you. Choose to fight kingdoms to take the crown for yourself, or defend kingdoms and be respected as a hero throughout the land. The game has just launched and the current storyline is this:
[glow=silver,2,300]Altaire: The Beginning[/glow]
For centuries the land of Altaire has been ruled by the gods. The gods, who were once mortals themselves, have worked together to form and protect the beautiful land Altaire is today, but now the land has become a battlefield for the gods. The god of death, Garth, believes he should have been the one to rule the gods instead of the kinder, much more merciful goddess of life, Aleila. He has always vowed to take her place by force if necessary, but has never acted upon it. Well the time is near where Garth will let his actions speak rather than words. He has already gathered some of the lesser gods on his side, along with the major god, Solizan god of fire. He has begun to build an army from the people of Altaire, and intends to not only take the helm of the gods, but rule all of Altaire his way. Will you help Aleila and her warriors of light, or will you aid Garth and his soldiers of darkness?
Meanwhile the people of Altaire- while oblivious to the Great War that is approaching, still feel that something is amiss- continue to live their lives like normal: slaying monsters, going on wild adventures, trading and commuting with others, and living life to the fullest being on the daily agenda for most. While the gods have their problems, so do the Altairians. Ishtar, god of darkness and the son of Garth, continues to try and impress his father by waging war on King Jerneo, a hero of Aleila. King Jerneo is getting old however, and must pass down the crown to his son, Prince Arian, who has been distancing himself farther and farther from the light. His only option is to find a suitor for his daughter that can take up crown should he die in battle. Will you be the one who is the harbinger of darkness, or the bearer of light? Will you be the one to take the throne forcefully or marry your way in? Will you be the one to find out why Prince Arian is distancing himself from his family?
War is not the only problem in the land. Bandits, monsters, and all sorts of other evil beings out there hope to rule the land for themselves. They have gotten smarter and have begun to use the Crystals of Zion to strengthen themselves. The Crystals of Zion are crystals that were created by the mother of the gods, Zion. She was more powerful than the gods put together as she was the one that gave them their power to begin with. When she suddenly disappeared, the gods had to elect a leader and Aleila won the vote only meeting two opposing votes. Since her disappearance her essence has been found in the form of mysterious crystals that have ability to unlock the potential in others. Most adventurers search for these rigorously but without much success. The gods on, the other hand, seem to have an endless supply and hand them out as rewards to those they feel have earned it. It is rumored they get their supply from the Tower of Zion, but no one knows how to access it to be sure. Will you discover the secret of Zion? Will you become the most powerful in all of Altaire?
