Heroic deeds on an epic scale: The Drakensang Online story
Centuries ago, a mighty dragon engulfed the world in flames which plunged the world into a state of chaos and nearly caused the downfall of mankind. Brave heroes inspired the public to join forces and banish the dragon to the fiery depths from where it came.  However, after the death of these valiant warriors, the empire eventually crumbled. Memories faded, vigilance waned and the evil became nothing more than a distant legend.

A century of peace and prosperity passed, and unsettling rumors started to spread like wildfire war has broken out in the north and Prince Aldred has vanished without a trace. The land is shrouded in terror and a long-forgotten cult has reemerged. The increasing turmoil, an omen of the dragon's revengeful return, is a summons to the ancient order of dragon warriors and mages to take up arms once again. The time has come for them to confront the evil which was banished into dark realms centuries ago. As the battle to end all battles draws near, new warriors are born and the bravest will join forces to fight for freedom and survival: A new age has begun an age of heroes!
