Thessyra
No one is born a hero.
A low-magic, full-loot MMORPG with no classes. Every skill is trained, every scar is earned. Built in the open.
Where the build stands
One developer, one system at a time. Each part is finished and tested before the next is begun.
A body that reads the world
Walls, ledges, ladders, ropes, falls, and blows. Movement is built, and now being hardened before the first players try it.
Every bench a step Test build screenshot. MetaHuman stand-in, borrowed village.automated movement trials, run every time anything changes.
at 150 to 200 ms of delay: the bad connection every networked trial also runs on.
Props as steps
A bench against a wall, a crate under a ledge, bales under a roof. The body will read the whole way over and chain a step into a climb.
What the world is built on
The design is settled. Some of it already stands; most is still ahead. Each part says which.
-
Bodies with weight
BuiltMovement answers to the body. A heavy fighter starts slow and turns wide; a light one changes direction on a coin. Wounds and loads show in every stride.
-
No classes
DesignedNo class select. Skills grow through use, and mastery is scarce: the blade you perfect is the spellbook you never open.
-
Silence or steel
DesignedA halfling in leathers slips past the watch unheard. A dwarf in plate is heard a hundred paces off. Every burden has its price.
Concept art -
Full loot, real wounds
PrototypeFall, and what you carried is left for whoever reaches it first; the prototype already works this way. Wounds by body part, which spread if left untreated, are designed.
-
Ether and faith
DesignedMagic draws on a shared well that runs dry when casters crowd together. Faith works the other way: a congregation is stronger as one.
-
Craft and build
DesignedNo locked recipes. A blade is steel, hilt, and pommel, each a craft of its own. Walls rise from simple shapes under real physics, and players can break them.
Concept art -
A world that doesn't wait
DesignedSeasons, weather, and hunting pressure shape the land. Hunt the wolves out and the deer strip it bare, until something hungrier comes.
-
Guilds with teeth
DesignedThe fighters and the thieves keep halls older than you. Rank is earned in labor and blood, and working their trade without leave makes you competition.
Players build and break this world, so nothing in it is marked climbable. The body reads what is really there.
A bench, a crate, or a hay bale in front of something taller is a step, and the taller thing is measured from its top. A tall climber jumps for the roof from the first bale; a shorter one climbs the stack.
Forgotten places stay forgotten until someone brings the piece that's missing.
The road
No dates. Only the order it has to happen in.
- Now
One pair of boots
A blade, a foe, and a body that moves well, for a single player. Movement is being readied for testers.
- Next
Others arrive
A small circle of players, invited to break things and say so.
- Later
What is built remains
Characters, skills, and wounds carry over from one session to the next.
- Horizon
The world opens
One seamless world holding many players, never split into private copies.

Every bench a step
Movement leaves the test room for a real village, and a bench against a wall changes how the world is read.

Holding on, and letting go
Ladders, ropes, bare stone, ledges, landings, dodges, and a body that knows how to fall.

The weight of a body
A new way of building the game, and movement rebuilt around the character wearing it.
