~Dragonica~








Dragonica is a 3D fantasy, action-oriented, side scrolling MMORPG developed by Barunson Interactive.

Story

The World Map, taking the shape of a dragon.
The World Map, taking the shape of a dragon.

The great war between gods and demons separated all living creatures into two opposing camps; one on the side of Light and one on that of Darkness. During the Great Dragon War that took place 50 years prior to the beginning of the game, the dragons themselves were also separated into two sides; one led by the Lord of all Dragons, the other by the Dark Lord, Elga, whose heart and mind had been twisted by the evil Enchantress, Paris.

As the ruler of all Dark Dragons, Elga believed in the divine right of the Stronger to hold dominion over the Weaker. Guided by his cruel cause to wrest power from the hands of "foolish" humans, he is intent on controlling all through the use of sheer power.

According to a Treaty created after the War of the Divinities (between the gods and demons), the Dark Forces will be handed dominion over half the world if Elga's forces manage a successful invasion. With the dragons unwilling to allow Elga such control over their world, they've finally devoted their forces and combined them with the force of Light, preparing for the inevitable battle against the Dark Lord's minions.

Our story begins now as the Dark Forces have taken just over a full third of the world. Your task, by agreement with the Dragon Lord himself, is to train and develop your skills as one of the foremost warriors in the lands, in hopes of defeating Elga and the Dragonoids.

As a member of the Dragonian Fellowship, you will be forging alliances with other adventurers, helping with quests and tasks as you explore the various lands, and shaping the future of Dragonica itself.


Classes

There are four classes to choose. They are Warrior, Magician, Thief and Archer.

Warrior

Warrior seek strength only for themselves. They may seem to be mindless daredevils due to their strong lust for power, but they are gifted with a strong body and a sharp combat sense, making them worthy opponents and brave adventurers who know how to make good use of their talents and gear. If their world was in danger, Warriors would willingly throw themselves into the bloodshed to save it. They are fully prepared for the journey, to prove their strength to the world. With their extraordinary melee talents in both attack and defense, they make themselves the ideal vanguard in any battle.

Magician

It’s a long, intense, and difficult path to study sorcery, isolated from the rest of the world. Magician, however, love their magic more than anything else, and thus, can overcome any hardships they might encounter in the mystical magic towers. Even though they are mere apprentice magicians, they have more wisdom and reasoning than anyone in the world. They enter their magic towers to study sorcery to establish new principles and laws in the realm of magic. However, the recent crisis that's befallen their world wields a higher calling and didn’t let them focus on their studies. Realizing that they had to resolve the current emergency in order to peacefully finish their study, they didn’t hesitate to barge into the war with the knowledge that there’s a solid difference between the lessons of textbooks and teachers and those of the battlefield.

Archer

Long-range, projectile weapons, which require much preparation time, have been said to be the greatest and most complicated weapons in all of time. Among said long-range weapons, the bow stands out as being especially notorious, as it’s often one of the hardest weapon to master. Archer are those that have struggled and practiced with bows to truly master them. It’s incredible to see that archers are not only efficient and deadly in long-range battles, but are also formidable at close quarters. With their proficient, swift hit-and run strikes, they heckle their enemies with guerrilla tactics, giving their allies time to prepare and strike. As danger loomed over their continent, they grabbed their bows to fight in the war and save their world.


Thief

Thieves used to wander around the dark alleyways of cities and towns, loving what they did. However, the current calamity of the world wouldn’t let them continue with their comfortable lifestyles. They realized that they’d have to come forth from the shadows to resolve what faced their world. The Thieves formed an organization under the anonymous name of “Guild.” It began to prove itself as an incredibly helpful information provider. Thieves are so used to ambushing and sneakily attacking their prey that they’ve been rumored to have never before fought a straight, fair battle. With their unmatched urban battle styles, they are the master of the city landscape, using the architecture and buildings so well that few could capture them in any city.
