Awaken at Lighthaven
Log in with your account, create your hero, and choose your path. Every new soul opens their eyes in the sanctuary of Lighthaven — the last bastion of the Light. From there, the Gloom is yours to survive.
Where you'll spawn
New heroes begin in Lighthaven's sanctuary square. Trainers, a banker, and a weaponsmith are steps away.
One account, one identity
Your portal login and your in-game login are the same. Change nothing — just play.
Track your heroes
Your hero roster shows every character on your account, their level and where they roam.
