Aetolia is a mountainous region of Greece on the north coast of the Gulf of Corinth, forming the eastern part of the modern regional unit of Aetolia-Acarnania.
Aetolia, the Midnight Age, is an online MMORPG MUD, owned and operated by Iron Realms Entertainment. Aetolia launched on October 7, 2001, with a duplicate map layout of Achaea, Dreams of Divine Lands. Originally Aetolia was a dark gothic fantasy world, with the backstory of everyone's memory having been erased (known as the Great Artifice in the game), however the game is currently transitioning to a steampunk type realm, with the introduction of technology trees (powered by ylem), the Dreikathi Empire invasion, and other technological advancements. The game features a multitude of playable races and classes, with players able to hold multiple classes.
It was revealed to the playerbase in late 2010 through an uStream with Eric Lamy, who was then Aetolia's producer, that the entire playerbase would be shifting to a new continental map, known as Albedos, that will continue the game's evolution away from its Achaean roots. This is considered the penultimate part of the steampunk transition.
In 2015, a new event has occurred. Labelled the "War of the Night", shadows from a rift to the Elemental Plane they dwell within have been unleashed upon Albedos, causing recurring attacks upon the cities. With the sudden appearance and invasion of the Nazedha Empire, Aetolia is currently under war, with its players working together to attempt to beat down the Nazedha, and reseal the rift.
