Once you have created a character and logged onto Achaea, you will find yourself in a world unlike any other. Achaea takes place in a fantasy environment that combines elements of classical Greece and Rome, medieval Europe, India, and ancient Persia with the elements of a wide variety of player imaginations. It is important to note that as this world is primarily medieval/mythological, you won't find any modern technologies such as computers or television. You will, however, find a host of magical and supernatural tools and abilities to utilize.

In Achaea, there is no single goal to achieve, and not everyone seeks to achieve the same things. You could [[Newbie_Guide#Gaining_Experience|earn experience]] to ascend to the [[level]] of Greater Dragon, where you gain the ability to assume the form of a mighty [[dragon]]. Or you might choose instead to undertake the [[quests]] of the lands - many with intricate plots and detailed storylines - to earn [[honours|honourable]] and permanent recognition for your efforts. You may also choose to climb the political ladder and become a feared or respected ruler of a [[city-state]] or [[:Category:Houses|House]]. There is any number of other paths you might take - master [[bardics|bard]], [[Ivory Mark|Champion]] or [[Quisalis Mark|Assassin]], trend-setting tailor - and it is up to you to follow that path. Though the actions of others may influence your character, only your decisions will set your true path.
