Become an Emperor ruling over one of the nine cities which are spread out
across the three continents which make up Elysium, or perhaps gain favour
from an existing Emperor and become one of his or her five ministers - 
researching new technologies and spells as the Minister of the Unknown, or 
even setting the tax rates and constructing vital industries as the 
Minister of State! 

If the political world isn't your speciality, rise up the ranks in your 
chosen guild, learning from 20 varied skills, each skill having around 20 
abilities with which you can carry out such diverse tasks as summoning 
demons, forging weapons or cursing your enemies with disease and 
pestilence. 

Join your city's army, commanding legions of infantry or cavalry, making 
attacks upon other cities so that you may bring them under your Emperor's 
command! If land battles aren't your thing, the navy offers you the chance 
to secure your naval superiority over the other nations, through boarding 
or sinking enemy vessels!  Whatever path you choose for your character, 
Elysium will provide you with the depth and realism required for the 
ultimate in roleplaying!
