The Foundation & Development
Our Mission
Imagine, if you will, a fantastical land where financial dependence is a necessity and progress is only obtained through the sacrifice of potential. For many, this may sound all too familiar to their current experience within the Western part of the world, particularly the United States. The land of Fiach embodies the issues of student debt, as well as the socioeconomic effects caused by a life lived in the red. Through immersive and multiculturally-inspired settings, Fiach highlights the common struggles of citizens attempting to find financial independence.
Looking to bring about change, one of our world’s main design motives was to help the viewer become more aware of the rippling detrimental effects of educational debt. We also aim to accent the influence of societal structure on indebtedness and the unequal impact of debt on individuals. We have set out to inspire those in power to take steps toward eliminating this issue so that the true potential of a collaborative, debt-free, and sustainable society can be reached. |
An In-Depth Fabrication Process
We wanted to develop a modernized version of the medieval era in a world that parodies our own. To do this in a full, holistic manner, we sectioned our world into four main categories: (1) Political, Governmental, & Economic Structure, (2) Environmental & Societal Structures, (3) Workforce & Jobs, and (4) Wizardry & Culture. Each of these sections is extremely researched and elaborated; further reading on individual areas is below.

Beyond the game - how to get involved
The world of Fiach acts as a library of information on the student debt issue, and aims to give players a better idea of this issue's widespread effect; our larger goal as a team is to inspire players to leave Fiach with an educated perspective on student debt, and take action on this issue. We've compiled some organizations who share similar goals as us - we look forward to your participation!
