Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach (abbreviated as "DDO") is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed by Turbine, Inc. Turbine has developed DDO as an online adaptation of Dungeons & Dragons (abbreviated as D&'D). DDO is based loosely on the D&'D 3.5 Ruleset and set in the Eberron campaign setting.
DDO is set on the fictional continent of Xen'drik, in the world of Eberron. Eberron is a campaign world, developed by Keith Baker for Wizards of the Coast. Players can create their characters following the revised edition of D&'D 3.5 rule-set fashion, and play them in both indoor and outdoor environments, including a large variety of dungeons.
The core of the game is set in the city of Stormreach, a giant-scaled city built eons ago, and recently settled by humans. There are a number of areas within Stormreach - the Docks, the Harbor, the Marketplace and the four Dragonmarked Houses - House Deneith, House Jorasco, House Kundarak and House Phiarlan. In addition, there are a number of adventures that are taken beyond the city walls, into distant lands such as Tangleroot Gorge, Threnal, Three Barrel Cove and Sorrowdusk Isle, each home to one or more adventures of their own.
Generally, the plot of the game revolves around the following dark plots:
Giants attempting to regain mastery over the city of Stormreach and the continent of Xen'drik
Cultists attempting to reopen the gate to Xoriat
Minions of Khyber (Eberron), attempting to gain power over Xen'drik
