Inis Albion is a high fantasy role-playing game setting by Jörg Rhiemeier which is part of the project named The Elvenpath. The setting is currently under construction and has not yet been played regularly (though it has been playtested once at a gaming convention, using GURPS as the game system).

The world of Inis Albion is an interpretation of Arthurian Britain. The setting avoids the cliché of an idealized High Medieval royal court, which would be an anachronism in Britain about 500 AD. A special feature of Inis Albion is that Elves and Dwarves exist (as playable races), who, however, are just human beings with "Elvish" and "Dwarvish" cultures. Also, magic may work, though this is an optional feature of the game world.

The setting is designed for use with OURS, but can be used with other game systems as well.
