10/19/2020 We are pleased to present, The Black Gate By EM Malachi The Black Gate The sky was a swirl of colors, as raw mana poured in from the other worlds in orbit around Sosaria’s sun. Eight columns focused the magic toward a massive slab of blackrock etched on the border with runes: the Black Gate. The Fellowship forces fought with zeal and desperation. The Black Gate was everything Brother Batlin had promised, and failure meant death or imprisonment. The cult was not alone. Humanity had other enemies, brought here by the Fellowship’s influence. Britannia’s forces were much smaller. The […]
Halloween approaches, this year evil forces have taken over Deceit making the dungeon even more dangerous than usual, with the occupants no longer confined to their usual areas, but wandering throughout the dungeon and having gained the ability to spawn as paragons. Following a similar formula to previous Halloween Events an artifact trader has stationed himself outside the dungeon. Artifacts of the Undead Lords will appear in adventurers’ packs as they battle the inhabitants of the dungeon and the trader will exchange these for a variety of items in his inventory; figures in brackets are the number of artifacts the […]

Publish 109, in the summer of 2020, saw the introduction of 26 dynamic champion spawn locations that may be activated for the duration of a global or EM event. These spawns function in the same way as the established, permanent, champion spawns with waves of increasingly difficult creatures leading to a final ‘boss’ monster, champion boss spawn scales based on player density, up to two Champions spawning per encounter. Dynamic Champion Spawns do not drop any scrolls but instead will drop participation and top contributor rewards relevant to the story line of the event that the spawn is an integral […]

Dockside By EM Malachi The docks were a swarm of activity. Crates from all over Britannia moved on and off ships, and captains and merchants haggled loudly across the pier. Iolo waited with Katrina as her ship to New Magincia was prepared for the journey. “Glad to be going home?” Katrina clutched her pack as a sailor with a wheelbarrow of marrows ran up the gangplank next to her. “I can’t wait to leave. I’ve only been to Britain a handful of times, but it’s always too much!” “Too much?” “Too much city! Too crowded! Too dirty! Too loud! Too […]
“Oi, this rock sounds hollow!” yelled Bronze-nosed Bob, putting his pick aside for a moment. “Arr, oi don’t hear nuffin’” said Bung-ear Fred, peering at the rock Bob had been chipping away at. “Are ye sure ye aren’t whackin’ on an ore elemental’s belly again? Yer remember what happened that last time! She weren’t happy, no sir!” “Nay, it’s no elemental. Listen!” Bob grabbed his pick, and swung at the rock again.
