What’s New?
- The Air orb was collected from atop a tree, where its power was being sought after by large numbers of elemental beings and most closely fought over by a pair of Hollowed Demi-human creatures. The Hollowed proved very formidable and took the entirety of Stormgard working together to defeat them.
- The people of Stormgard have now successfully found ALL of the magical orbs that belong in the Gate to allow travel around Tridia.
- Construction has begun within the Swallow’s forest to create a labyrinth-like set of walls, making it harder for would-be attacks from there to get to Storm’s Eye keep.
- A massive nest of flying fae was found deep in the Vilebite woods.
- The scoundrel Randall Skaggs and his bandits are still on the loose.
- The orbs are collected, and are being prepped to be put into the Gate.
- A traveling merchant has made his way to town for the feast’s occasion.
- With the help of many ore donations, the smiths of Stormgard have improved their skills and are now able to craft with iron! Nina Deltagale is planning a large party to celebrate. Maleus Torge is planning a more intimate get-together to celebrate. It remains to be seen which one will actually happen.
- Storm’s eye is being prepped for a feast to celebrate the finding of Stormgard Canyon and its safety.
- One of the town’s woodsmen is certain an angel performed miraculous healing on him. His partner is skeptical and looking for help.
Community Upkeep
- Stormgard currently has enough food in stores to feed everyone.
- Current state of the smithy: Rank 2 – NPCs are able to craft rank 1 and 2 items with provided materials. Adventurers may purchase rank 1 items at normal price, and rank 2 items at double price.
- Ingots to next rank: We are at 0.4 of 75 Iron ingots needed to reach the next upgrade! (copper ingots may be donated still, 10 copper count as one iron ingot)
Friday Night Announcements:
- Health changes: your character sheet will have your newest HP; we will be looking for feedback after the event.
- Safety reminder for ranged weapons, especially thrown: Remember to aim at the torso or lower, try to avoid any throws that go up to head level to avoid eye pokes. Repeat offenders will be barred from using thrown weapons.
- Weapon Skill is now open to anyone to research without a teacher and to buy out of benefit up to rank 5. Prowess now requires a teacher and may be purchased up to rank 3 out of benefit.
- Saying “Physician 1, Physician 2…” and “Field Repair 1, Field repair 2…” are now required when utilizing those skills in combat. We are making this change to keep the skills as strong as they are, but have seen the count being accidentally shortened during the heat of combat.
- If you do not see XP gained from August, we don’t have your Character backstory. Make sure you get that submitted to us this weekend if you want credit for the event, and future ones. (Characters newer than 3 months are exempt)
