The Orphans have their old home back.

A custom world, rebuilt from the ashes by the people who played it. Free to play, and it will never sell you power.

The Refuge mark: a shattered star of silver and purple shards

The class tree

42 classes, and every one of them starts as an Orphan

Every road out of the Orphanage, on one sheet. Move it around, get in close, and click a class to read what it is like to play.

Three steps and you are in

The client is free and the account is made with one command in our chat server. Together it takes about five minutes.

Download the client

One archive, several hosts, the same build on all of them. Take whichever is fastest where you live.

Come into the chat server

Your account is made there, and every patch, restart and balance change is posted there before anywhere else.

Join the community server

Type /register

In the #commands-account-and-donation channel. The command fills in the rest of itself: you give it a name and a password, and the account exists. Then open the client and log in with exactly those.

That channel takes commands, not conversation. /changepassword is in the same place if you need it.

One account per person, and a second one for a vending stall if you want it. The longer version of all this, including the rule about multiboxing.

Never pay to win

There is a shop, and it sells hats. Cosmetics and nothing else: no stats, no gear, no progression, and no real-money trading. It pays for the hosting, and it does not sell you power or your time.

No single correct build

The job-locked sets that funnelled everyone into one playstyle past level 100 are gone. Fifty-plus new sets replaced them, and none of them belong to a job.

Built in the open

We post the balance passes, the skill trees and the deadlines we miss, and we did it before the doors opened as well as after. What people say in the community server keeps changing the design.

The reason people stay

42 classes, and not one of them is a reskin

Everybody starts as an Orphan. After that the tree splits 12 ways and never rejoins: a card thrower who reloads SP by shuffling a deck, a knight who blocks his own healing to hit harder, a summoner who fights as two characters at once. Each one has its own quest, its own weapons and its own reason to exist.

The door is open.

Every announcement lands in the community server first, and we answer questions there ourselves.
