Server Transfers

You can now transfer your character to Firiona Vie and Zek for free! This is a one-way server transfer and your character will not remain on the original server.

Housing Layouts

Housing layouts allow for the saving and loading of entire sets of placed items. When you create a look for your yard, your house, or your entire plot that you want to keep, you can save it as a layout. You are then free to modify the plot's appearance, because at any point in the future you can easily load the layout and all available layout items will be restored to their saved positions.

There are a number of options available when loading a layout:

• You can store all currently placed items that aren't used in the layout or keep them where they are

• You can use items from your inventory while loading a layout

• You can choose to load only the house or yard portions of a layout.

Whenever a layout is loaded, an Auto Save layout is created of the plot's placed items right before the load was done, allowing you the ability to undo a mistaken load. Also, in case you forget the items that went to a particular layout, there is a layout details window. This window tells you all of the required items for a specific layout and whether or not you have enough of them available to fully load the layout with your desired settings.

A New Face in the Neighborhood

An uneasy tension fills the morning air of Sunrise Hills. Garik, the recipient of five consecutive losses at Orcakar glares around the room irreverently before speaking, 'I don't much care for their kind waltzing into our home and bandying about their authority like they do...'

Darix, the cynical antagonist, smiles, 'You sound worried, little man. You should keep your focus on the game at hand. He's not a concern to us; let him wander about crafting his knickknacks and going on about his brother...'

Ragthar slams a small Orc figurine down on to the table and lets loose a roaring laugh, 'Me win again!' The surrounding trio sighs. Perhaps a new face in the neighborhood will introduce a bit of luck in their efforts to best the Ogre savant...

Tremors and Premonitions

The rumors started, as they usually do, with the gnomes. The Eldritch Collective buzzes with activity, and even the students are excited by something they can feel in the air. A flurry of messages zips from sage to sage, each returning confirmed - the Order of Three, the Academy of Arcane Scientists, the Keepers of the Art, and even, surreptitiously, the Heretics - they all feel the same subtle change in the fabric of reality.

The barrier is weakening.
