Welcome to the world of Illarion!

llarion is a free, graphical fantasy game that focuses on true roleplaying. Come and join the world of Illarion. You'll fully emmerse yourself in this world, as though your character is a real being. All of the characters around you will behave as real people in this independent, mysterious world. They'll tell you about magicians, ghosts and fairies in some of the most unbelieveable stories and rumors. Pick a race you would like to play: human, dwarf, halfling, elf? Maybe an orc? Or even a lizardman?

Please don't expect experience points or other numbers inside the game which reveal your skills. Just follow the role you want to play, in time you will see whether you become a great warrior, fighting against the various evils of Illarion, or the most respected master smith of the town. Perhaps even the most popular barkeeper because practice makes perfect. Druids and magicians will cast mysterious spells with herbs and runes. In addition to all of this, each race speaks its own language but all are able to speak the common language of Illarion to make themselves understood.

We are offering our own server, a Java client (which can be used with Linux or Windows) and the guarantee that you will never, ever, pay anything for this game. To ensure this we founded a registered society and it became contractual in the statute. Illarion has been online since February 2000 and is always being developed by programmers and volunteers to satisify the wishes of the player community.

Even you can't resist the magic of this world!

Lethal consequences

s there was a discussion about how to roleplay a resurrection and especially how long one should play being injured or unable to e.g. fight, one has now to face the consequences for dying too early after a resurrection.

If one dies within a RL hour after the last resurrection, the recovery time is doubled (compared to normal).

If one dies within the recovery time itself, the last recovery time is doubled. This means, that it will raise exponentially when constantly dying within the recovery time.

This way the engine gives a guideline for appropriate post-mortem roleplay.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to send me a PM in the forum.
