Adventure Begins: April 1, 2014 - Create Your Character Now!

The very first adventure released by Realms of Adventures has just been announced. What began as a short play-by-email expedition for a single solo-adventurer to enjoy, has grown into a full fledged adventure. The encounters serve as the perfect entry into the Realms of Adventures for new players.

'The Secret Vaults of Kas the Betrayer'
is a quest into forgotten halls built by a rouge Dwarf and his band of engineers and stone cutters. The story is forgotten legend now, merely an insignificant footnote of the Third Age. However, if the stories are true then the Vault must be explored extensively - at once.

Create your character now
and join the adventure with a group of players from around the world. Explore the Realms of Adventures Races List, and Class List to decide how you will venture forth into the Realms.

Touch base with all the friends you know would enjoy a new adventure, and invite them to come along. Success in the darkened corridors of Kas the Betrayer's Secret Vaults will require a variety of skills, and many sharp minds.

You didn't think Kas the Betrayer would simply let you waltz in and take his hard won treasure - did you?

My Brain Won't Stop, But Where Is It Going?

Some of my very first books were from the Choose Your Own Adventure series. If you are not familiar with these small children's books, they allow the reader to become the main character. Beyond that, the plot of the story changes based on decisions by the reader. There can be many possible endings - but they may only be discovered by the reader making choices.
I've always preferred the high epic fantasy and hard science fiction genres. Piers Anthony was a favorite author of mine. Perhaps because the very first long novel I ever finished on my own (without the pressure of parents or teachers) was On A Pale Horse by Piers Anthony. From there it was on to Companions of Xanth and another world. While I've always been a slow reader, I find that my mind delivers vivid imagery, rich sounds, and deep emotion from the works of fiction I read. While in college I learned about the 'suspension of disbelief' - and was made aware how low the hurdle for my 'suspension of disbelief' was set! I really, really got into whatever I was reading, or watching at the moment.
There was a time I recall asking how to write a book, a story, or a novel.From some arts and crafts store, or local educational supply store, my mother found a large poster about plot lines, character development, proper grammar and sentence structure. I liked the poster a lot - figured it was my ticket to being an author - then promptly hung it up inside my closet door with the other toys. Something in me loved the idea of writing - of exploring other worlds - perhaps even worlds I dreamed of inside, and longed to visit myself. But another part of me had a hard time sitting down to write...
That part of me is still very much alive. Recently I learned a good term to describe myself is 'dilettante'. But the child-author is chipping away at walls time built, and is stirring up a desire in me to write. And he's doing it through a medium that is very special to me. The interactive fiction genre - the digital offshoot of the classic choose your own adventure book.
