Mage Wars RPG is a massively-multiplayer online role playing game based on Course Books IP and set during the late Dynastic Period of the Mage Wars mentioned in the books.

Canon

Within the Course Books storyworld, the game is set sometime between B.G.A. 305 and 301. The Marcon Alliance is fracturing, but the Gudersnipe Army has not yet emerged. Magic still dominates the land, sword and sorcery.

Setting

The game is set initially on the massive Agras Plane, but will later grow to include many regions and continents in the dimension of Arindell. Later expansions might give the players access to other dimensions, but the world of Arindell is large enough to enclose the entire massive adventure.

Expansions

One planned expansion will be to introduce the Gudersnipe Army on schedule. This might enrage the fanbase however since the Gudersnipers use high-technology. However, some players might be interested in the addition of guns and other equipment. The army is never explicitely stated to have used entirely technology and is often eluded to being magic-tech. It would not be an enormous challenge to make everyone happy through some well-placed questions.

Story

The game will not have a set dynamic story line and will basically remain static. New areas and expansion packs will be added, but it will be assumed that no time passes within the game unless a major event such as the arrival of the Gudersnipe Army occurs.

The primary enemy will be the Marcon Alliance, who's reach extends to the eastern-most edge of the Barrier Range. Most end-game content will be based around raids into Marconian territory.
