Down in Slithville, everything is a nice, peaceful society run by priests. Also, it's on the same level as Vahnatai lands - both are in Lower Avernum, although far separated. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

You can have up to a certain number of stat modifiers on items. I think the max is four or five. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Novah is basically a naming language used for places, people, control panels, etc. and it would be very difficult to adapt it to an entirely spoken/written language. Oh, and Jeff has said that he likes Vahnatai Week, so nyah. When Alec/Djur talks about 'our current plotline', he's talking about the Arena. There are some things that are canon, like the continents, what they hold, some immediate history of the Empire, etc. The rest is left up to us. The Encyclopaedia Ermariana is meant to be a resource for scenario designers to use if it so moves them. I suppose it would be useful to create a section that is 'pure canon' as well. But the rest is just for the fluidity of scenarios set on Ermarian, and to provide background on the world. All of the following is pure canon: South of Pralgad was Valorim, a land ruled by the vicious Ratbane clan of Nephilim. The Empire constructed Blackcrag Fortress at the southern end of the isthmus connected Pralgad and Valorim and began to mount attacks. After about 50-75 years, the Nephilim were overwhelmed and the cities of Gale and Lorelei were established. At this point, Hawthorne I was the Emperor. His court mages discovered the system of caves beneath the surface, and he sent an expedition. The expedition was led by Thralni, and some of the other members were Scrioth, Karzoth, and Korthax. This expedition was slaughtered, "to a man and a woman." After Hawthorne I's death his son, Hawthorne II, came to power. He began to send down violent and dangerous criminals of the foulest sort, instead of executing them. At this point, there was a power struggle among the mages, and Garzahd and his cronies won and appointed him the advisor to Hawthorne II. Hawthorne II sent these mages down to Exile, including Erika, Rone, Solberg, Aimee, and Patrick. When Hawthorne II died and Hawthorne III came to power, Garzahd remained his advisor. Hawthorne III saw the portal to Exile as the answers to all of society's troubles. All the misfits, antisocials, petty lawbreakers, and more were sent down to Exile. And this proved to be his undoing. After the first few people were sent down, they established a city and began to fight the demons and sliths that threatened them. When the mages were sent down, they were able to help stage an assault on Grah-Hoth, and they captured him in a bottle and stored him in Akhronath, with the lich-ified Prince Hrothar, who had fallen in the battle, to watch over him. When Micah was sent down, he worked closely with the archmages to establish a society. They created glowing mushrooms, built more cities, learned to fight, and they took over the caves. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

If you look in places like the Giant Caves in Exile/Avernum 3, to open the room to get to the map you need to play with a control panel. What's there, but Vahnatai-labeled runes. I'd imagine that it's sort of like Japanese or Egyptian, where there are two sorts of alphabets used in different occasions. Except in Novah, it would be one formal rune alphabet also used in magic, but with a regular alphabet used in common writing, most books, etc. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Ahem. TGM, I can't change your account's name unless I log into it, and I don't want to do that. It's really not a big deal for me to have an account named TGM. If you want to change it, then change it yourself.

Orange juice is my lifeblood. I just can't live without it.

When I was talking about fresh-squeezed, I meant juicing my own oranges (that sounds terrible) or buying from a farm. The only good mainstream orange juices I've found are Tropicana Grovestand and Simply Orange with pulp. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Vahnatai Did Do It desperance.net - We're Everywhere The Arena - God Will Sort The Dead ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!
