Quest / Mission Board

This is the beating heart of adventure across the living world of Æther. Whether you're delving into ancient ruins, tracking down a dangerous fugitive, or undertaking a sacred rite, this category is home to story-driven threads tied to specific objectives, contracts, and campaigns. Here, Game Masters post available quests, factions issue mission requests, and adventurers band together—or clash—as their goals intertwine. From personal journeys to grand undertakings that may shape entire nations, these are the tales forged in fire, blood, and fate.
Downtime
Sun, May 18th 2025 03:33
Between grand adventures and dangerous quests, characters need time to train, craft, manage businesses, or simply pursue personal goals. The Downtime category is where players handle their downtime activities—whether building an empire, crafting magical gear, establishing a guild, or training new skills. Use this space to document ongoing projects, resolve downtime rolls, and develop your character’s life beyond the battlefield.
Progress takes time—and this is where that time is spent.

Step into the arena! The Battlegrounds is Æther's designated space for all things Player vs. Player. This is where warriors test their mettle, rivals settle scores, and the thrill of combat takes center stage. Whether you're looking to engage in structured combat within one of our predefined arenas, or simply need a dedicated thread to resolve an IC conflict through force of arms without interrupting other roleplaying threads, this is your forum. Post challenges, accept duels, narrate your epic clashes, and chronicle the outcomes here. Please ensure all encounters adhere strictly to Æther's established PvP ruleset and remember that OOC respect remains paramount, even amidst the most heated IC rivalries. Sharpen your blades, ready your spells, and may the most skilled prevail!
