| Introduction | |
|---|---|
The World of Babel is a high fantasy living world setting that’s been around since 2019. This is an 18+ World, due to the level of maturity we expect from individuals, rather than allowing 'certain activities'.
We are still continuously working on some part of the world itself, so its possible to come back and find something new since you last looked! Our staff have experience in other campaigns, living worlds, and fantasy in general. We hope to make Babel even better using those experiences, no matter who is heading the charge. We all are doing this voluntarily, so please believe me when I say we care about this place, enough to contribute to it ourselves, because WE want to! Most importantly for you, we are a server that emphasizes giving people freedom to make all kinds of builds, with Mythic, Gestalt, Akashic Mysteries, Psionics, Path of War, Vancian, Spheres, Pact Magic, and more! As long as you are willing to put in the work, there is all kinds of things you can do here! Please, don't let the choices paralyze you, as you are not in any way required to use any of these! You could honestly just go a Fighter/Barbarian if you wanted to, and just hit things with a stick, ignoring everything 'extra'. That is your choice, and we respect it! If you wish to get a very brief look on some of the general plot of the main story-line, be sure to look over the Chapter Summaries to catch up on the lore that's been developed thus far!

| Current Plot Synopsis | |
|---|---|
The Tides of Time continue to break upon the shores of Chronus, a world of Sparkholders, magic, and martial prowess. We have a War brewing among the Merovingian Mountains, Old Civilizations being slowly unearthed from eons old cataclysms. Blood attracts Blood, as a disease borne of negligence brews both from this world, and beyond it. Hunger pangs from dark corners of the outer continents, while others taste freedom. Nonetheless, you may not be an adventurer, a hero, or even a citizen of a kingdom borne of flame and anguish... but you could be. And you still can. Would you cleanse the hearts and blood of a fallen people? Celebrate with those who wish for your happiness? Do you wish to burn with the Lion, or cause the fall of his Pride?

| Reminder on Wiki Usage | |
|---|---|
You are by no means being asked to add to the wiki itself, but if you wish to, there is plenty of places to add to, to make our world even better. For example, Player Content, is where you can put all of your character pages and personal creations (like items, constructs, artifacts, etc.) so that others can see how much these people and items matter to you or other characters.
As for the Lore section, that is where most of our wiki is. It is split between, as just a quick summary, a place to put various groups (npc or otherwise), non-player entities, any kind of location, and then recordings of past history. This history could be from sessions, encounters, you just writing, or otherwise. Remember! Anyone can add to any part of this wiki, whenever they want! It is, of course, polite, to ask whoever made a specific page, if you plan to add to it. But for making your own stuff, you can do that freely. If you managed to get here without being on our Discord, it is highly recommended you join, as that is where the bulk of our activity is. This is alongside a separate Forums website, which information can be seen on our discord. Our sessions occur either on Roll20 or in discord text channels, at this time. We do not cater to Play-By-Post, but if you can get someone willing to run such a format for you, that is ok! Just ask, asking hurts nobody. We just do not support it by default. |

| This content used to be parts of other sections of the wiki, but was retired/archived due to the relevant player leaving the server, that version of a location no longer being in-use but kept for historical record, or had mechanics that were no longer legal to use, despite being canonical. This navigation only displays categories that has archived pages in them, and only tries to organize them briefly, it is by no means an indicator of limits of what is archive-able. Some may also be archived in preparation to a later re-write for more current lore. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
