In the aftermath of Tyrael's daring act of destroying the Worldstone, a cataclysmic event ripples across the world of Sanctuary, leaving a void in its wake. As time passes, the absence of the Worldstone begins to take its toll on the delicate balance of the realm. The forces that once held the world together now unravel, causing decay and chaos to spread throughout Sanctuary.

It is during this tumultuous period that individuals find themselves born anew or infected by a mysterious force known as the Shardinum. The Shardborn are individuals who bear a unique connection to the shattered remnants of the Worldstone. This link manifests in them as latent power and extraordinary abilities, granting them an edge in the battle against the encroaching darkness.

Guided by the ancient wisdom of the Horadric Elder Deckard Cain, the Shardborn discover the true nature of their existence. Cain unveils an ominous prophecy that echoes through the annals of history, speaking of the inevitable collapse of Sanctuary without a divine artifact akin to the Worldstone to uphold its foundations.

Word of this dire revelation spreads like wildfire, reaching the ears of those who still cling to hope. Adventurers, both experienced and novice, both good and evil, begin to gather, driven by a common purpose. They understand that the fate of Sanctuary lies in their hands. United by their shared burden as Shardborn, they set out on a perilous quest to find a solution to this impending catastrophe.

Their journey takes them to forgotten lands, ancient ruins, and hidden enclaves, where they encounter a myriad of challenges. Along the way, they confront demonic hordes, ancient evils seeking to exploit the power of the shattered Worldstone, enigmatic cults that worship the chaos consuming Sanctuary, and much more. The adventurers must overcome these trials, not only to save themselves but also to safeguard the very existence of Sanctuary.

I might - might - join.

I'm interested. Consider me considering.

@Letter Bee@Gelatinous Cube Let's not forget that there will be a pay to win function. It will be like Diablo Immortal.

Joking aside. I wanted to know from an RP perspective. Which style would you like to play this from. Originally the Shards are supposed to give the players power based on an aspect. Baal had corrupted the worldstone and that is why it was destroyed. At this point I may just scrap the traditional class/race limitations of the Diablo world. However, gaining powers from the stones akin to a class would still be open.

Furthermore, if possible I would like for all the characters to know one another somehow. This may not be possible for all characters which is understandable. There will be an infernal and purity system based on the powers and how they are used. Mainly this may or may not be something I keep track of. Depends on if the players are all having fun and don't mind things going a specific way. Count Purity as a type of Angelic corruption and infernal is a type of Demon/devil corruption.

Normally players start at level 1 in the games. However, without classes and such I'm unsure how to scale the experience. Then again an RP can be a totally different beast. I'm open to suggestions. If none are "balanced" enough I may just scrap exp all together and make it more of an item based system. Please note that some rare items may be better than a legendary. lol D2 stuff.
