Welcome to Achaeapedia: Archives of Achaean Lore!
What are the Archives?
  • A player-written encyclopedia for the vast virtual world of Achaea.

  • A place where new and old explorers and lore-lovers of Achaea can share and expand their knowledge.
What are the Archives not?

  • Quest information and information that helps you further your character in the game will not be included in the Archives, excepting in certain special contexts.
  • Those who wish to gain information solely through their characters in Achaea may still do so; this supplementary material is an optional tool, not a forced replacement.
  • There will still be much in Achaea not accessible here, such as the esoteric knowledge of Houses and Divine Orders.
Why can't I create an account?
  • Only those approved to contribute to the Archives may create an account.
