"Impressive. Most impressive."
-BeyondThePale
(Three Hour Tour article)

"I'm thoroughly enjoying your server AD! The more time I spend adventuring in it, the more I'm pleased with all aspects of it, right down to the smallest detail, of which there are many."
- Jorn Kyros (Barus Gorn)


"I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for bringing this wonderful world to life and sharing it with us. I find myself thinking more and more about what I want to do or see the next time that I log on, and it has been some time since anything has engaged me in this way."
- Eric of Atrophy


Welcome to the World of Aenea. This site contains information and resources needed by those playing (or interested in playing) on the World of Aenea server.

Aenea is an online world developed originally for a pen and paper Dungeons & Dragons game. The world has a flavor of its own, and a bit of time exploring will reveal that to players. After more than a year of work in the design and crafting, went online in June 2006 for the general public to explore and adventure in.

The World of Aenea is constantly being added to. As time passes, new areas, new monsters, new treasures, and new quests are being added.

Just a few features to look forward to as you explore:
  • Award winning colorized class, feat, and spell icons, an original idea developed for this world
  • a text-based Variable Chat system for gaining information, toggling options, speaking languages, initiating extra emotes, and more.
  • underwater areas with blue-skinned scrags (waterbreathing trolls) and the risk of drowning
  • horses of different sorts for riding
  • a custom designed portal system for rapid travel across the continent (using the Vault's Lord Nikon's stargate models)
  • teleportation spells: teleport, transference, word of recall, summon ally, and teleportation barrier
  • deity-specific granted spells and powers for clerics to replace the generic domains
  • dfferent favors granted by the deities to their followers, such as healing, summoned aid, or even killing of enemies
  • many D&D style items, such as the flaming longsword +1 that you have to activate to get the fire (no more burned clothing from sheathing a weapon) and the hat of disguise which let's you look like other creatures
  • several additional skills that characters can automatically gain ranks in, such as Swim and Knowledge (arcana)
  • 94 new spells such as water breathing (makes it possible to avoid drowning), sphere of denial (knocks creatures over), and tenser's floating disc (for carrying treasure out of dungeons)
  • ...and much more
