The World of Craft of GodsEdit this paragraph Top


"Craft of Gods" is a 3D MMORPG, based on Slavic mythology.
The world characters live in is called Akvilon, it is a huge world with 25 different maps. There are many wonderful places to discover, many enemies to fight and an infinite number of things to do.
In Akvilon, there are forests, deserts, desolate steppes, magical ancient forests, frozen icy plains, where the cold can even freeze your very thoughts. There are hundreds of different monsters and more than 70 unique creatures, including the legendary Serpent, fiery Dragons, and the slimy Kikimora. But there are also the honeyed-tongued Sirens… honeyed? Are you sure?

Characters can travel through this world by foot, but they can also ride one of their pets. Pretty much any animal can be tamed, some of them will become fast rides, but others, like tortoises, will be slow, so you need to pay attention to the animal that you want to tame. But perhaps you will enjoy peacefully sight-seeing the world from the back of a slow cow!

On every map, there are also dungeons: these are unexplored places, where Darkness has focused its efforts to attack the world. They are very dangerous places and exploring them will be a real challenge!

Finally, in the “Craft of Gods” world, there are some places dedicated to the battles between Light and Darkness. Fighting for your chosen realm is not only an honorable task - if you are successful in completing a difficult task, the Gods will recognize you as a hero, and they will give you a Demigod rank, which will enhance your abilities beyond any human imagination. But don't rest on your laurels, your enemies will do their best to defeat you and steal your Demigod rank!

 

Craft of Gods BackgroundEdit this paragraph Top


At the beginning there was darkness… only darkness.
Creator Rod escaped from his prison by using his magical powers. He created the entire Universe, and three worlds within it - Jav, Prav and Nav, filling them with everything living. Then, by breathing out his Divine Spirit, he created the Bird Mater Sva and Svarog, the Heavenly Father.
Svarog lifted his hammer, and the world bowed to his will.
Svarog created the sky and twelve columns that support it, and then Rod created the water and Great Ocean and the Alatyr Stone, the Stone of all stones, the first Stone.
In the beginning, it was small and hidden deep in waters. But Svarog saw it, was amazed at its beauty and raised it from the deep. He spoke magical words and Alatyr grew larger and larger - thus Mountain Alatyrskaya was created.
Alatyr contains the entire knowledge of Veda, mediator between gods and humans. Veda can be small and big, light and heavy, someone you know and a stranger... he simply exists.
Svarog got tired of being alone, and he smote Alatyr with his magical hammer, striking it with infinite strength. Flying sparks lit up the warm surface of the stone, and joined together to form the bodies of fiery Semargl, and Svarog Warriors, known as Ratichi.
Semargl’s smoke is his flag, and fire is his horse. His path in the world is marked with a long path of black ashes.

The Great Black Snake, born from the Darkness where Rod was imprisoned, looked at the world, smiled at Svarog's heaven and decided to imitate him.
He slithered towards Alatyr stone, and smote it with his black hammer. And from this demons were born, known as Dasuni.
Semargl immediately felt the evil presence of the Snake and ordered Svarog to fight the evil Snake.
When Rod saw the battle, he was afraid that this conflict will cause the destruction of the world, and he decided to cut the world in half – and those halves were called Avi and Navi.
Svarog and Semargl settled in Avi, and the Black Snake in Navi.
And on the mountain Alatyrskaya, the place of this battle, grew a sacred tree. Its roots connected the two worlds as though with a chain.

Two magical birds built their nests on this tree - Bird Alkonost on the east side of the tree, Sirin Bird on the west.
But the Black Snake desired more lives and souls, and he created his soldiers and settled them over the entire world.
To battle the Black Snake, Svarog created humans, but in this he made a mistake. Humans were not brave or powerful enough to conquer the Snake’s army.
Then Svarog created Giants, and give them strong bodies and mighty spirits.

And so the War began....

RacesEdit this paragraph Top


There are six races in the “Craft of Gods” world. Two of those races, and some humans follow Svarog, and the other two races and the rest of humans - the Black Snake. The races hate each other and battle for the world domination. However, one of the six races is neutral - they are not interested in the battle between Avi and Navi.

You can choose your side when you are creating and personalizing your character. You can choose to be male or female, and also choose your look.
The races are born in different places on the global map, and you will begin your travels in relative safety, until you learn how to defend yourself in this harsh world.

Realm of Light - Svarog’s realm

Humans of Light
Svarog saw the danger that the Black Snake’s army represented, and so he created this race. He entrusted them with the world’s future. The human race is proud to be a part of Svarog's family, and they want to change the world in which they live. They have spread all over the world; they are very adaptable and can live in any conditions.

Hyperborean
When Siana, a golden-haired maiden with sea-green eyes decided to marry, she asked Svarog to find her a good man. He sent Iaromir, they fell in love, and were married. Their life together was happy, but then Siana died and Iaromir ran into her burning pyre to follow his love. He came out from the flames as god Semargl, and to them was born a new race: the hyperboreans. They are akin to humans, but they are made of fiery, and worship the Great Semargl.

Velet
This race has also been created by Svarog. He smote a mountain with his magical hammer, and from flying shards was created a giant human-like race, which Svarog named Velet. They are giants, powerful and strong, but they are also honest, a little naive and innocent. They are good and are kind to other creatures, but do not annoy a Velet, for he is as strong as Svarog himself.


Realm of Darkness—Black Snake’s Realm

Human of Darkness
Not all humans, created by Svarog, became his followers. Some of them were fascinated by the power of the Black Snake, and chose Darkness. They are the same as humans of Light, similar in appearance and their progeny, but the Darkness and the power of the Black Snake made them very powerful.

Voldkodlaki
One day, a wolf went to the Black Snake. He kneeled next to the Serpents great tail, and asked to marry one nice human female of Darkness. At first, the Black Snake refused, but then he realized that uniting the mind of a human with the agility and strength of a wolf could create a new race, very well suited for serving his Dark purposes.


Dyagv
The Black Snake hates water, and he went everyday to the Great Lake to see the Spirits of the Lake. They were not afraid of him, united as they were in the clean waters of the lake. He hated them and so he created them bodies. This race becomes corporeal and they lost their powers in water and named themselves Dyagv. They are still serving Darkness, hoping that one day they will return to being spirits.

The neutral race

Atlantis
Few things are known about this race. They don't want to participate in the battle between gods’ followers, but they are also important to the world’s equilibrium.
