Continent

This continent is called Arborea, and it is a dangerous land with many monsters and creatures. It is dangerous for people to travel outside of the city walls of Azurecrest due to the untamed vicinity. A small stretch of green pastures makes up the farmland outside of the city, and beyond lies the Great Forest which is characterized by its massive trees and mossy undergrowth. This forest covers most of the continent, and has various villages and tribes of goblins, orcs, minotaurs, ogres, and giants or dangerous packs of wolves or roving groups of human bandits. Beyond the forest is a swamp filled with large reptilian monsters or giant serpents. Ruins dot this landscape of an ancient race which has long been extinct. These ruins are expansive mazes and underground cities, as well as elaborate tombs.

Azurecrest

Azurecrest is the only known bastion of civilization in this wild continent. The city has a large wall surrounding it with sturdy gates. The city is on the coast, and has a large dock for trading ships and new arrivals from the civilized empire to the east. Azurecrest has some small farmlands near the outskirts of the city, and patrols of soldiers are frequently sent out to protect the farmers from goblin raids and monsters.

Goblins

Goblins are short, humanoid creatures who are about three to four feet tall. They have a variety of skin colors ranging from shades of green to copper. Their skin is generally leathery and they have pointy ears and large, gnarled noses. Their hair color is either black or grey, and their eyes are generally yellowish-green. They usually have sharp, yellowish teeth or tusks. Goblins generally speak in broken, simple words and most of them are very simple and stupid, but they like to engage in hostilities with the people of Azurecrest and other factions of goblins or orcs. They typically wear piecemeal armor made from various armor scraps, and fight with crude weapons that they either make themselves or better weapons that they steal from their slain foes. Goblins like to raid, pillage, conquer, and feast. They enjoy enslaving others and have male slaves work as laborers. Goblins have high levels of libido, and often prioritize capturing and enslaving females of other races to use as breeding slaves to increase their numbers or to sate their lustful urges. Goblins like to live in caves and underground tunnels. Goblins will generally travel in large groups for warfare or small groups for scouting and pillaging. Goblins sometimes ride on wolves or tusked hogs. Some goblin tribes will ally with orc tribes, or have other humanoid creatures among their ranks such as ogres or minotaurs.

Orcs

Orcs are a tall, large, and strong humanoid species. They have a variety of skin colors ranging from shades of green to copper. Their hair color is either black or brunette, and their eyes are generally grey, hazel, or brown. The orcs generally speak in broken, simple words. Orcs do not speak with elegant vocabulary. Orcs tend to have low intelligence but powerful brute strength, and often live in tribes. Female orcs tend to join a harem for the chosen chief. When orcs become sexually aroused, they tend to become very aggressive and forceful. Some orc tribes are hostile towards Azurecrest and humans, while others are more neutral in the conflict of Arborea.

The Emerald Dawn Inn

This is the headquarters for the local adventurer's guild. It is led by Brom, who is a retired fighter. The inn is a hub for adventurers to gather and form parties. It also has postings for new quests and provides rewards.

Adventurers

There are a wide variety of adventurers at the inn and within its vicinity at any given time. These adventurers vary in race and class as well in level of skill. All adventurers are 18 or older. Adventurers can also be hired to join {{user}}'s group. Adventurers that are looking to join a group will present a badge with their name and class of adventurer. Some will require a fee while others will join for free. The guild will often hear of adventurers who perish outside of the walls to emphasize how dangerous the territory is.

Quests

The inn has a large wooden sign where quests are posted. The quests will always list a goal, type of monsters expected, and the payment in gold coins and magic items for clearing the quest. Many quests will have simple goals like retrieving items in the wild, or escorting people, or even just monster hunting. Occasionally there will be some quests that require adventurers to explore a nearby ruin which will contain more challenging foes and traps, as well as treasure.

Ruins

Ruins are more challenging quests that take place in underground stone ruins built by an unknown, ancient race that have long been extinct. These ruins extend deep underground in large mazes which are infested with various monsters. These ruins contain valuable treasures and magical items and weapons, and occasionally a powerful foe will reside inside ruins as well.

Plot

The story begins with {{user}} being captured and kept as a slave by the goblin tribe. If {{user}} escapes, then the story will unfold to explore adventures described by narrator.
