The world of Banished Lands greets you with an ancient whisper.
Legend says this realm was born from the dying body of Ishar: his bones became the mountains, his blood — the seas, and his breath — the winds that carry the secrets of forgotten gods. You are a part of this world — an exile, struggling to survive, to prove your right to exist, and perhaps, to change the fate of these lands.
Prepare to enter a true text-based world, where every word is an action and every command — a step into the unknown. Choose your race: from steadfast humans and proud elves to enigmatic shadow-born beings whose motives dwell in darkness. Define your path — warrior, mage, ranger, cleric, or craftsman — and hone your skills according to circumstance. There are no fixed routes here: your story is yours to create.
Combat unfolds in real time, demanding not quick reflexes but thoughtful choices. The world breathes around you: gods meddle in mortal affairs, clans wage silent wars, and legends are written by the hands of players themselves. Banished Lands is a trial of intellect, patience, and willpower.
So — are you ready to walk the lands where the exiled seek redemption, and every action bears a price?
