The dark lord Mobius has just thrown you out of the Empire for crimes against the Ascendancy. A new life in exile is your destiny, and your new home is unlike the world you once knew. Welcome to Puddleby, outpost town in the Lok’groton island chain.

Clan Lord is a world of high fantasy role-playing on the Internet. Join thousands of players around the world exiled to a dangerous island chain threatened by monsters, sorcery, and political strife. Not just hack and slash — heal the wounded, study magic, and solve puzzles.

Game characters have been exiled by the mad Emperor Mobius to the Lok`Groton Islands for "crimes" against the Empire. Characters are of seven races: Human, Dwarf, Sylvan, Halfling, Thoom, Ghorak Zo, and The People. Exiles may choose to pursue one of three professions: fighter, healer, or mystic. In addition to the dangers of the natural island wildlife, exiles must deal with other sentient beings, including the warlike Orgas, the Darshak pirates, the Undine (i.e., undead), and a group of ancient and powerful sorcerers.
