Overview
| Vanguard is set in a fantasy world called Telon. Most of the known playable races are from traditional fantasy: gnomes, humans, halflings, dwarves, elves, barbarians, and half-giants. Less traditional is the vulmane, a race of intelligent bipedal wolf-men (unlike werewolves).
Geography
There are four confirmed continents in the world of Telon.
- Thestra – A European type continent with mountains, wetlands, and forests. Thestrans, High Elves, Dwarves, Lesser Giants, Varanjar, Halflings, and Vulmane inhabit Thestra.
- Qalia - Middle-eastern type continent with mountains and deserts. Qaliathari, Mordebi, Dark Elves, Gnomes, Kurashasa, and Varathari inhabit Qalia.
- Kojan – An Asian themed continent with jungles. Kojani, Half-Elves, Wood Elves, Raki, Goblins, and Orcs inhabit Kojan.
The fourth continent, Lothenland, is not immediately accessible to all levels. Not much is known about Lothenland. What is known is it is surrounded by icy weather created by a magic force.
Dungeons
Not much is known about the type of dungeons Telon will have. However it has been stated, by Sigil, that there will be no instancing.
"Dungeons simply exist within the world. Walk over a hill and you might find a human castle taken over by orcs, delve into a chasm and you might find the cavernous entrance to a mini dungeon or play area. There is no loading – you simply enter and leave. Of course, many monsters have “leashes” which stop them from being “trained” too far from their dungeon of origin."
Housing has been confirmed to be included with the release of the game. There are three types of buildings that are crafted by players and sold to players.
- Residential Buildings – Player owned homes.
- Industrial Buildings – Crafting player owned buildings.
- Commercial Buildings – Commercial shops and stores owned and run by players.
Placement of the crafted building is limited. Developers have divided areas up into zones. If a player wants to build a house in a certain area of a continent he/she will have to find a near by appropriate zone to place the building. Player owned cities have been confirmed, although not much is known.
Currently there are twelve unique races. Barbarian, Elf, and Human have their own sub races. There are seventeen unique adventuring classes. When creating a character the player must pick a race and then pick a class. However, not every race can pick every class. Each class is limited to a certain number of races.
Each style of play is broken up into what is called a sphere. There are three types of spheres: Adventuring, Crafting, and Diplomacy. Each sphere will have a level and will increase in level as you perform certain actions. For example if you fight various monsters your adventuring level will eventually increase. A player can choose to level any sphere at any time, but is not forced to level any sphere. All three spheres effect your character overall. There are no restrictions to any combinations between spheres making each character very unique.
