RYL: Path of the Emperor is a massively multiplayer roleplaying game that aims to create increasingly difficult and challenging gameplay as players progress deeper into the quest. In the game, players assume the role of a Warrior, Cleric, Wizard, or Thief (over 20 classes) and explore the many beautiful and exotic locations within the game where they meet other players, complete quests, fight monsters and other players. Path of the Emperor features more than 400 quests (or missions) for players to play through, a compelling battle system, a "skill system" that allows players to define their character's "class" over time, as well as the ability to own virtual real estate within the game. Players can become feudal lords or leaders of clans or bands of warriors.
