The Lore
Play by Post Collaborative Storytelling
Atharen is a play-by-post open ended writing website. The basic idea is that you make a character by drafting a character sheet (CS) and once completed, take up writing in one of our numerous locations! The story is in your hands. Atharen is designed to be a setting in which you, the writer, can tell your own stories. We have provided the tools with which to tell those stories but they are ultimately in your hands. The collaboration aspect comes in joining in with and collaborating with other players and even the moderators of the website.
The bottom line is that your adventure is what you make of it. Be a proud warrior. Be an inquisitive mage or be a baker running the local bakery in a city. The choice is yours and we empower you with the tools to make those choices as you see fit.
Fantasy Genre
Atharen is an original high-fantasy world with some industrial and dark fantasy influences. All lore on Atharen is 100% original, created by our mod team and playerbase, from our many races to the magics they wield, and the countries they live in.
Storyline
