'''''AdventureQuest Worlds''''' is an expanded universe of [[Artix Entertainment]], a company originally created for single player flash games, and it's their first step into the MMO market. Launched five years after the company's first game, ''[[Adventure Quest]]'', the game follows its own chaotic storyline, but with NPCs from all the previous AE games (AQ, ''[[Dragon Fable]]'' [a walkaround RPG] and ''[[Mechquest]]'', a [[Humongous Mecha|Giant Robots]] RPG, or DF [[Recycled in Space|IN SPACE!]] The monsters are more recognisable.
 
The game follows your character on his or her path to become [[The Hero]] of a legend. After saving a dragon from a princess (Yes), he or she moves to Swordhaven, in hope of getting their reward. Instead, they found a burning city filled with undead and a giant, flying dracolich hovering just above the King's medieval castle. As he/she journeys inside it, they now start watching the overwhelming number of undead try to destroy the city, while the paladin Artix -- ([[Author Avatar|yes, that one]]) -- tries fighting them all in vain. [[The Hero]] goes to the throne-room to 'help the King', but instead they get to watch the legendary battle of Good vs Evil unfold: King Alteon, king of Swordhaven and ''all of his Pactagonal Knights'' versus Sepulchure, lord of the legendary ShadowScythe and proclaimed '''Master of the Undead'''. The two arch-enemies fight a fierce battle, with neither gaining advantage over the other. As they proceed to unleash their most powerful techniques... Something ''unexpected'' happens.
