Dark Age of Camelot News & Events & Guides

From the rolling hills of Camelot to the mountainous peaks of Snowdonia, Albion is through and through the land of Arthur. Forged from his iron will, paid for by the blood of Knights and commoner alike, Albion encompasses the ideals, the laws, and the heritage of its most famous King. The people of Albion are a mostly homogenous lot - sturdy Britons, hulking Highlanders, graceful swift Saracens, the tall intelligent Avalonians, and the small mysterious Inconnu make up the different races in the Realm.

Realm VS Realm

With Arthur's death, peace between the three realms was shattered and a massive fight for the relics of each realm began(DAOC Platinum). An ongoing struggle of epic proportions is now a constant in the lives of many citizens of the once shining Camelot.

Players are thrust into an immense struggle for their realm's supremacy by fighting in a neverending battle for keeps, ancient relics of power and their futures. The frontiers provide a battleground for the numerous keeps that must be conquered to reign supreme over the other two realms.

Each realm has its own frontier, which must be protected by its citizens. Its keeps determine the amount of control one realm has over its own territory or the territory of others. Capturing these keeps can yield a greater ability to take the relic keeps, which guard powerful relics of power and strength. When captured, they bring bonuses to the victorious realm(DAOC Plat).
