Aberoth

Aberoth is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game set in a fantasy world, with retro graphics and an open-ended adventure. You begin in an orcish prison with no possessions or skills. After escaping, you explore, find items, learn skills and join other players to fight the enemies inhabiting the world.

The world and its systems

Aberoth has 16 large areas to explore, over 30 kinds of monsters to defeat, over 60 quests to complete and nine non-player characters to interact with. Dungeons are not instanced, and dropped items never disappear. Enemies can pick up and use equipment, potions, scrolls and magical items they find.

You can trade without restrictions: items are not soulbound or marked as no-drop. You can also build permanent structures with items, tame monsters as pets, or polymorph yourself and play as a monster. Player killing is allowed almost everywhere, with anti-griefing mechanisms in place.

Items and skills

The game contains over 200 unique items, with distinct graphics for each item, and eight skills to master.
