Ya Gotta Start Somewhere!
One of the unique features about Age of Conan is its introduction to
the game. Players start off in a single player game, being cast
directly into the middle of a deep, rich story line. Over the past few
months, we've seen much about this single player portion of the game,
but never a complete guide filled with details and screenshots... until
now. Join us as Ten Ton Hammer walks through levels one to five in Age
of Conan: Hyborian Adventures.
CAUTION:
Quest and lore information contained within!
After you have chosen and customized your character,
you will find
yourself face-down on a beach. A man by the name of Kalanthes will
approach you.
He'll tell you that you have landed on the Island of Tortage, in the
Barachan Isles, west of Hyboria. You have been shipwrecked, and the
slavemaster that held you captive on the ship has already begun his way
to the city of Tortage. The city is unwelcoming of slaves, and if the
slavemaster were to reach it first, you would end up being stuck
outside, and left to die in the jungle.
