Who We Are

About

Oath is a story-driven Aion roleplay community built around an Asmodian legion. We are Asmodian-only for now, with Elyos characters possibly joining later as the story grows. We are lore-compliant but not lore-strict: if a character could reasonably exist in Asmodae, we want to meet them.

The Cataclysm split the world and the Tower of Eternity with it. Elysea rose into endless day and Asmodae sank into endless night, and the Abyss opened between them. A thousand years of war followed. Our stories live in the quiet between those battles: in Sanctum's lamplit terraces, in Pandaemonium's cold halls, in the fortresses of the Abyss where enemies are forced to share a fire.

We are a found family first and a roleplay server second. Scenes are consent-based, planned out of character, and open to any pace you like, from a single tavern evening to a months-long arc. Asmodae has its own in-character spaces, the Abyss is there for cross-faction scenes, and a neutral tavern sits where the lines blur.

Our Discord is built around four archives, the Visions of Atreia for screenshots, the Gallery for art, the Chronicles for writing and the Daeva Registry for character profiles, plus a prompt channel that will hand you a scene seed whenever the muse is quiet.

The Light Half

Elysea

Bathed in perpetual sunlight, Elysea is the home of the Elyos, who hold that they alone kept faith with Aion when the Tower fell. Oath does not accept Elyos characters at present, but Elysea is the other half of every story we tell.

From the floating spires of Sanctum, the Seraphim Lords guide a people who are radiant, devout, and quietly certain of their own righteousness. Our Elysean stories lean into that tension: the pilgrim who doubts, the Daeva who remembers the war differently, the merchant for whom the Light is simply good for business.

◆ The Elyos in our stories

Elyos appear as rivals, captives, reluctant allies and the occasional ghost from before the Cataclysm. Staff and guests may play them as NPCs in Abyss scenes. If the legion ever opens its doors to the Light, this page will say so.

The Dark Half

Asmodae

Locked beneath a starless sky, Asmodae forged its people hard. The Asmodians survived where nothing should have, and they do not forget who left them to it.

Pandaemonium is a city of iron and ritual, ruled by the Shedim Lords and defended by a people who are fierce, loyal and far warmer than their reputation. Our Asmodian stories are about that warmth under armour: the Daeva who guards a village the Lords forgot, the smith who still believes in the old Tower, the raider who finds an Elyos worth sparing.

◆ Playing an Asmodian

Asmodian characters bear the marks of the Dark: clawed hands, a mane, eyes that catch the light. They begin in Ishalgen, Altgard, Morheim, Beluslan or Brusthonin and travel as their story demands.

◆ Pandaemonium, in character

Our Asmodae channel is the capital and its lands: the Capitol, the Temple of Artisans, the Vifrost Bridge and the taverns of the Kaisinel... sorry, the Marchutan quarter. Scenes set anywhere in Asmodae belong there.

How We Conduct Ourselves

The Covenant

These are the same rules posted in our Discord. Accepting them there verifies you and opens the server.

I. Inclusion

• No discrimination. Racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, religious intolerance and bigotry of any kind are not tolerated, in or out of character. This does not need to be elaborated on.
• Respect names and pronouns. Pick yours in the role menu; use the ones others have picked.
• Everyone is equal here. Staff, veterans and newcomers are all held to the same standard.
• Treat all players and their creations with respect. Critique a story only when it is asked for.

II. Consent and Boundaries

• Respect boundaries. No means no. Consent is key.
• All members present in a scene must be aware of and comfortable with its subject.
• Anyone may disengage from any roleplay at any time. No one is obligated to roleplay with you.
• Triggering or heavy topics must be discussed OOC before a scene starts, not during it.
• Do not dictate how others should or should not RP. The only exception: if a character is doing anything sexual with a canonically underage character, or engaging in bestiality, report it to staff immediately.

III. Age and Content

• All members must be 18+. Verifying confirms you are of age.
• No sexual content involving underage characters, ever. This is an instant, permanent ban.
• Keep NSFW content to channels marked for it, and keep it between consenting adults.
• No real-world gore, self-harm imagery or hate symbols anywhere in the community.

IV. Lore and Characters

• We are lore-compliant, not lore-strict. If a character could reasonably exist in Atreia, we encourage creativity.
• No canon characters (Siel, Israphel, Kaisinel, Marchutan, the Lords, named Balaur and so on) and no pre-established characters from other universes.
• No godmodding, metagaming or powerplaying. A Daeva is powerful, not invincible, and other players decide what happens to their own characters.
• Oath is an Asmodian legion. Elyos characters are not accepted at this time; cross-faction scenes happen in the Abyss with NPCs or guests, and faction rivalry stays in character.

V. Conduct

• Keep in-character drama in character. OOC harassment, dogpiling or callouts are not allowed.
• If you report another member, bring receipts. Accusations without evidence will be treated as slander.
• No advertising other servers or selling services without staff permission.
• Listen to staff. If you disagree with a decision, take it to a ticket or DM, not a public channel.

VI. Triggers and the DNE List

• The DNE (Do Not Engage) list is for things that bother you but are not triggers. Report them to staff and they will be respected.
• Let staff know your current triggers. If you are triggered by something you never stated, no one but yourself can be held accountable.
• Do not weaponize the trigger list to stop things you simply dislike. Triggers are serious; everything else belongs on the DNE list.
• Do not discuss, hint at, or ask permission for topics on the trigger list. They are simply avoided.

VII. Strikes and Bans

• We operate a three-strike system. On the third strike you are removed without appeal.
• Strikes are forgiven after a month of good activity in the community.
• Strikes are not given lightly, so reaching three is not easily achieved.
• Violations of anything above will earn you a strike. Serious offences skip straight to a ban.

The Oath

The Oath

By the Tower that was and the Tower that will be,
I swear upon the aether in my blood,
To rise, and to lift others as I rise.
A wing for the wingless, a light in the long dark.

I shall not ask which half of the sky you were born beneath,
Nor hold the Cataclysm against the children of it.
Where the Abyss would make us enemies,
I will make us kin.

Truth shall be my compass,
Yet I shall not speak it where it wounds more than it heals,
For silence too can be a mercy.

No secret shall escape my lips,
No name betrayed, no trust undone.
In the quiet between the sieges
I forge the vow that binds me still.

I do not seek the Lords' favour nor the Balaur's fear.
Only the story, and the will to tell it well.

So long as I draw breath,
and the aether lights the sky,
This oath I carry.
This oath, eternal.
