Just one decade ago climate of Nathmyr region was temperate, there were four seasons with warm summers and mild winters, lush vegetation was covering whole land to the west and east from Kildorrery Canyon, it used to be a home for many species of animals. Almost one hundred years ago in the middle of Nathmyr a little village called Darranard was founded, it was teeming with life, residents lived in prosperity because local miners were engaged in the mining of very valuable crystals in the world's largest mine system - Hadraroth mines. Each year this little city was exporting thousands of crystals, still Hadraroth mines after many decades of exploitation were still loaded with crystals. One man's work for only one year in Hadraroth mines was enough for a big family to live in wealth for decades. Life of the residents of this small town could be called perfect, there was no indication that the peace and prosperity that lasts so long could ever be interrupted.
One year a really severe summer came, temperature rose by a dozen degrees and rain did not show up for months what led to the drought. Crops in Darranard decreased to almost zero, famine came, there was also a shortage of drinking water, many severe thunderstorms burned surrounding forests and fields, people began to abandon work and their temporary accommodations and return to their home towns. Many who decided to stay did not survive the summer. Many who dared to work in the mine at that time never came out. The river in the canyon began to dry up, all the surrounding water bodies turned into brown water contaminated with carrion and specks of dust and sand brought by the wind. The surrounding vegetation dried up, just few years were enough and it almost completely disappeared transforming the entire region into a desert. Nowadays the most common type of vegetation that can be seen in Nathmyr are scraps of dried grass. Only northern regions still have some residues of healthy vegetation, but they are just single trees and bushes. Animals in the region have almost completely disappeared, some started migrating in a search for a new home, some decided to stay, many died. Those that have stayed are no longer reminiscent of old animals, everything that lives nearby the town is now aggressive and able to kill to get something to eat. They are even fighting against each other. The population of the city began drasticly declining.
The summer passed, the autumn came, temperature decreased, first rain since spring came, the joy of the people in Darranard was hard to describe. It was still hotter than it should be, but it seemd that everything was going back to normal, at least everyone believed it. Late in the autumn the workers and their families began returning to the town hoping that they will be able to work in the mine again. At the beginning of the winter a 16-person expedition was sent to the mine to investigate the conditions beneath the ground, noone returned...
... and to start your adventure you should talk to the expedition leader who have stayed in Darranard and ask him ask for details. However this will not take place at the very beginning

Hello everyone!
I would like to introduce you to the world of The Unknown, it is going to be quite difficult RPG game server with many stories such as main story line, which will be the heart of whole game world (the introduction you can read above) consisting of a lot of quests, smaller and bigger ones and lots of bosses, which will be expended as the game continues, so hopefully for many years (I have maaaany ideas!). Of course there will be also lots of another story/quest content, everything taking place in 100% custom map. It will be server dedicated to those, who search for an alternative for classic Tibia, but does not have so much time, for those who love RPG, for those who like things to be difficult where every rare loot, every next level, every skill advance is taking some effort.
Server details (as for today, however it will not change drastically):
Protocol: 10.98
Exp: stages, from around 6x at the beginning, to 2x at higher levels
Loot: 1x - 2x or something in between, with custom drop chances for some items
Skill rate: 2x (still to be tested and decided later), no trainers, but offline training available
PVP: yes, also with guild wars option
Houses: auctioned on the website
And here I would like to mention, that many things will stay classic, so vocations, spells, monsters with loot - this will mostly stay unchanged. I consider it quite good already, there will be of course some little customization in this matter, however not so significant.
Enjoy screenshots!
