Dark Nordic idle systems built for long campaigns. If you can craft it, equip it, train it, or run it on your account, the server is the authority — same costs, same results.
Craft weapons, armour, and profession tools up a deep tier ladder. The Reroll Bench sits beside the anvil. The Vault holds what you keep. Uniques drop from combat — they are the chase.
Seven gathering halls and eleven production crafts. Assign workers and they keep mining, smithing, cooking, and the rest running while you plan the next forge.
Open-world zones T1–T100, sealed dungeon runs, party packs with affixes, and guild-scale threats. Combat drops uniques on bands that scale with the foe — not white gear, mats, or tools.
Combat identity. Each class has three oaths — Tank, DPS, and Healer. Swear one. Twenty skills. The action bar is what you press in a fight.
274 live uniques, painted as wearable gear. The authored catalog is 2,280 cards. Combat drop bands T3–T0. Uniques are the chase.
Guild buildings, an Applicant Board, and one profession hall per skill. Assigned workers complete cycles, turn in materials, and earn profession XP.
Seven gathering halls
Eleven production crafts

Male and female heroes with signatures and growth — the same cards you see at character select. Combat identity is the Class Board oath you swear, not a gender quirk. A hersir holds the line. A skald unmakes it with a verse.
“Stand at the front and refuse to move.”
Physical damage · holds the line
Piercing damage · strikes at range
Magic damage · mends and unmakes

The North
Clear open land T1–T100, spend seals on dungeons, and face packs that demand a real build. Combat is where uniques drop — 274 live, painted as gear you could wear or hold. Authored catalog is 2,280. Drop bands T3–T0. No white gear from kills. The Unique Codex is the catalogue.

Class Board
The Class Board is how a character fights. Each of the twelve classes has three oaths — Tank, DPS, and Healer. You swear one. Twenty skills sit on that class: five shared, five per oath. The other two oaths wait on a reset. The action bar is what you press in a fight. Live in the browser and on Windows.
