What is the setting of the game, and where can I learn more about the stories involved?

Image the ultimate fantasy universe, where the things of our dreams may very well be reality for those who live there. Our game is broken up into several different planets, which we call Realms. The place from which all life has sprung is called Urth, hence the name of the game. It is a magical and wonderous planet, filled with countless races, and intriguing and heroic stories of the past, with history and culture far too detailed to explicate here. Through the use of magical portals one might explore the other realms as well, each with its own unique and enchanting set of lore; all of which can be read from within the game in what we refer to as Encyclopedia Urth (or the EU for short).

Players may also explore the rich history of our realms, as well as communicate with other players within our game, right from the web by exploring the link at the top of this page labeled Forum, which is our message board system; external to the software itself.

The origin of Urth's Legacy...

Urth's Legacy, sometimes called UL, or ULRPG, started over 10 years ago. At that time it was nothing more than a set of webpage, which players utilized from within America Online chat rooms to form the common bonds of a community of role-players. The game would soon emerge as one of the most popular structured rule systems on AOL. As the community continued to support the game, its creator continued to expand on it. Although the game was original known as S.P.A.W.W.N. Forum (Specialized Players And World Wide Networks) it later came to be called Urth's Legacy, becomming part of the larger idea of the S.P.A.W.W.N. gaming network. And here it is today, some 10 years later, being actively developed into a world class text-based RPG even in the face of magnificient graphic oriented video games. The power of the imagination prevails.
