A History of the Order of Avalon

OA first has its roots within a text based online RPG called utopia.

Players competed to grow and maintain a province with unique race and specialisation, one of 25 provinces that formed a kingdom. Each kingdom had to establish a leader - their monarch - who was voted in and helped lead the kingdom through peace time and wars with other kingdoms battling for land, power and honor.

As the game developed - different approaches to gameplay evolved. Some kingdoms were aggressive and destroyed other kingdoms when they were at their weakest, other kingdoms believed in fair fights and honorable play. Allegiances started appearing between kingdoms of similar beliefs - and eventually these groups were formally recognised with tags and banners, spokespeople, political affiliations and organised websites. The first alliances.

Order of Avalon started off from an agreement by three kingdoms that they would defend each other at all costs.

Growing from there - it has developed over the years into a solid community that believe above all else the importance of honor, fair play, development, and standing by your friends - and those who join us continue to embrace that philosophy.

Since our humble beginnings we've developed expertise in managing a gaming based community - organising and maintaining an active memberbase, navigating the political landscape that evolves where other competing communities are introduced, and above that - knowing the games that we play well enough to teach others what we've learnt, while enjoying the company of those we call our friends.
