Richard Garriott, better known as Lord British the creator of the Ultimate RPG series, has announced plans for a new fantasy RPG, Shadow of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues. A Kickstarter for the game has been started and a live stream with some of the crew from Rooster Teeth detail Lord British's plans for the game.
The game promises to have a fully interactive world, original fictional story, physical game components (cloth map, fiction manuals, trinkets), both an offline and multiplayer online component, classless character system, player housing, and more.

With Shroud of the Avatar, Richard and his team will again reinvent the classic fantasy role-playing experience. Using state-of-the-art tools and technology, the game will focus on what made his seminal Ultima Series great. Once players are introduced to the game, they will discover their own story woven into the immersive world and lore surrounding them. Players may choose to follow the life of the adventurer or, if they prefer, focus on exploration and discovery. Players may even choose the life of a homesteader; either nestled within the safety of the settled lands, or on the dangerous but potentially lucrative frontier. The world is full of opportunities and challenges!
