Verra
The name of the Ashes of Creation world is Verra.[3]
- Verra exists in the material plane.[2]
- There are constellations and multiple moons in the night sky of Verra.[4][5]
- Players start in Verra a few short months after the very first expeditionaries were sent through the divine gateways when they opened from Sanctus.[6]
Lore
World history
The history of each server will be tracked and visible to players in a node's library.[8][9]
- This design may have changed.[10]
- We're gonna keep track of the history of the world so that we can tell people the story up to the current day. A player who's brand new, who's come in at the six-month mark can take a look at each server, what each server has done, how each server has tackled the storyline; and they can decide for themselves what community they want to join; what version of the world that they want to take part in.[9] – Jeffrey Bard
- Scribes may be able to collect and record information about the events of the world as they see it from their point of view.[11]
Sanctus
Sanctus is the world where the people of Verra found their sanctuary.[12]
- The Goddess of Creation created the planet Sanctus along with the Divine gateways to allow the descendants of Verra to escape their destruction at the hands of the The Others and The Ancients.[2]
- Very little will be revealed about the Sanctus story arc prior to the betas.[13]
A long long long time ago, everybody lived on a planet called Verra. Something cataclysmic happened that forced people from that world to another world called Sanctus. Verra is a place of really high magic. Sanctus is a place with no magic whatsoever. People escaped through these portals into the world of Sanctus. They had to rediscover technology, because so much of their current technology was based on magic, so they had to figure out how to interact with the world. Thousands and thousands of years go by. A long dark age passes. This history that I just told you falls into myth and legend. After this time passes, these portals reopen and the players are going to take the part of people who are coming through those portals once again back to the world of Verra to rediscover that magic, rediscover their history, and try to figure out what happened to this world to force them out of it.[14] – Jeffrey Bard
Sanctus is a key story arc, that will likely have very little revealed about it prior to the Betas.[13] – Steven Sharif
