Q: What is the main focus of Kings of Ethristah?

A: Unlike most RPGs, this game is not about fighting, but more so how you play your character. There will be conflicts and plenty of fighting in them, but the focus is more the choices you make rather then how good a sword you wield.

Q: What's different?

A: There are no classes (Warrior, Paladin, Hunter, Mage, etc.) to choose from, but instead different professions that can be combined in numerous ways. Some of these professions may be similar to the classes in other games, in name, but they play alot differently. If a Smith gets paid for crafting weapons, why shouldn't a Fighter get paid for the fighting he is already doing anyway?
Consequences aren't always bad, and most games with alignment based choices reward evil with no punishment. Not anymore, Ethristah is a living breathing world, it doesn't pay out instantly, but doing good has its rewards, and even though you can get your rewards NOW, doing evil may come to haunt you later.
