[20/04/15 00:18] MRWanderer:whips and chains are always fun [20/04/15 00:18] Masked Figure 3306362:purify?! [20/04/15 00:18] :lashtal listens to Orvid [20/04/15 00:19] Masked Figure 4939074:Purify of all that is holy... [20/04/15 00:19] JadenDew: *mutters* nothing is holy [20/04/15 00:19] :Masked Figure 4939074 becomes quiet as well [20/04/15 00:20] Orvid:Long ago, the drachorns were hunted down and ruthlessly killed, until all but one remained.

[20/04/15 00:21] Draconas:who is behaving like savages? [20/04/15 00:22] Masked Figure 8211102:Savages? No, we're just on the island to have some fum! [20/04/15 00:23] Orvid:The creature endured many an experiment, but, after time, it became too much and the creature finally collapsed. [20/04/15 00:24] Orvid:As the wizard had no use for a weak creature that couldn't even stand up to a few little experiments, he threw it out. [20/04/15 00:25] MRWanderer:correct me if i m wrong but hadn't Mur forbid lore? [20/04/15 00:26] Orvid: (One's belief and reality will forever be separated) [20/04/15 00:26] Masked Figure 4939074: (don't ruin a nice story by overthinking. :P) [20/04/15 00:27] Orvid:On this particular day, there was a storm out, so, even in its severly weakened state, it knew it needed to find shelter. [20/04/15 00:28] Orvid:Ever so slowly, it crawled towards the cliffs, where it knew there must be caves. [20/04/15 00:28] Orvid:At last it arrived, and, once inside one such cave, promptly collapsed, and fell into a deep sleep. [20/04/15 00:30] Orvid:Now, the creature didn't realize it at the time, but this particular cave was home to something else as well, the tiny men. [20/04/15 00:30] Keep:Thank you [20/04/15 00:30] :JadenDew pats Keep on the head [20/04/15 00:32] Orvid:Seeing the terrifying creature in such a weakened state, they realized they had a chance to tame a magnificent beast. [20/04/15 00:33] Orvid:So quickly, they concocted a plan to imprison it, while nursing it back to health. [20/04/15 00:34] :Draconas mutters about the tiny men [20/04/15 00:34] Orvid:As soon as they were sure the creature was asleep, they acted, tying the creature down with hundreds of ropes, so that it couldn't hurt them. [20/04/15 00:36] Orvid:Ever so carefully, they treated the great creature's wounds, nursing it back to health. In time, the creature became a great friend of the tiny men, who continued to aide it whever they could. [20/04/15 00:38] Sir Blut:Hey! [20/04/15 00:38] Sir Blut:People [20/04/15 00:38] Sir Blut:D: [20/04/15 00:38] :Masked Figure 4939074 shushes Blut [20/04/15 00:38] Orvid:When the time came for the creature to lay its eggs, there was no safer place for them but with the tiny men. [20/04/15 00:39] Orvid:Even to this day, the tiny men still care for the eggs of the drachorns. [20/04/15 00:40] Draconas:hmpf [20/04/15 00:40] Orvid:And, on occasion, deal with the creatures' rebellius periods. [20/04/15 00:41] :JadenDew 's eyelids are drooping.... [20/04/15 00:41] Draconas:grrr [20/04/15 00:41] Orvid:Those eggs however are impure! They contain the DNA of the creature after having been experimented upon by the wizard! [20/04/15 00:42] :JadenDew dozes off hugging one of Syrian's plushies [20/04/15 00:42] Orvid:Today we shall purify one of these creatures, to return it to its rightful form!

[20/04/15 00:47] :Orvid takes out a steel spike, shifting the egg to his left hand [20/04/15 00:47] :Change giggles as she noms on a fish and spits out the skeleton [20/04/15 00:48] :Sir Blut laughs [20/04/15 00:48] :Lintara furrows her brows with a growl at the spike [20/04/15 00:48] Orvid:And now, observe carfully. [20/04/15 00:48] :Masked Figure 4939074 looks closer [20/04/15 00:48] :JadenDew leans forward sleepily, still hugging a plush [20/04/15 00:49] :[Spell] revenge of the ancestors [20/04/15 00:49] :Orvid starts chanting something quietly [20/04/15 00:49] :[Spell] Atlaga loesa draconas [20/04/15 00:50] :Change draws what she sees [20/04/15 00:51] :[Spell] seeds grant me power [20/04/15 00:51] :Orvid ever so slowly chants faster and faster, louder, and louder, until at last he yells [20/04/15 00:51] :*Syrian* failed to cast a spell [20/04/15 00:51] Orvid:Purifica aceasta besti! [20/04/15 00:51] Aeoshattr: (bestie) [20/04/15 00:52] :JadenDew watch the egg with mild interest [20/04/15 00:52] :Aeoshattr tilts his head and watches [20/04/15 00:52] Draconas:torture! mutilation! i will not forget this! [20/04/15 00:53] :lashtal inhales deeply [20/04/15 00:53] :Orvid tosses the egg up in the air, and makes as if to slice the egg in two with the, now glowing, steel spike [20/04/15 00:53] Masked Figure 8211102: *grins and twirls around the impure dragon* No, it's best to remember what your future holds! [20/04/15 00:53] MaGoHi: *pats draconas* i know that feeling [20/04/15 00:53] Masked Figure 4939074: *notices the return* Welcome back, draconas. [20/04/15 00:53] :Orvid watches as, instead of splitting the egg in two, it pushes something dark out of the bottom of the egg [20/04/15 00:54] Draconas:you will die many painful deaths for this [20/04/15 00:54] :[Spell] stay still. draconas [20/04/15 00:54] MRWanderer:it pooped [20/04/15 00:54] :Orvid quickly catches the egg with his left hand [20/04/15 00:54] :JadenDew giggles at Wanderer's comment [20/04/15 00:54] :Change giggles as well [20/04/15 00:54] :Masked Figure 4939074 observes the dark stuff and wonders what will happen to it [20/04/15 00:55] Aeoshattr:Interesting.

[20/04/15 00:56] Draconas:an eye for an eye, mutilation for mutilation... [20/04/15 00:56] MRWanderer:now we stay here for the 90 day inccubation period [20/04/15 00:57] :lashtal watches carefully [20/04/15 00:57] :Orvid watches as the egg starts to glow red, followed quickly by many swirling colors [20/04/15 00:57] :JadenDew likes swirly colors! [20/04/15 00:58] MRWanderer:touch it jade [20/04/15 00:58] :Change somewhat wishes that she had more colours to draw with [20/04/15 00:58] :Orvid listens as a small wind starts up, and as the swirling colors grow more violent, as the wind picks up, and as the swirling starts to grow, encompassing the pillow, and a good deal around it [20/04/15 00:58] :Draconas stares in disgust [20/04/15 00:58] JadenDew:but lashtal would ground me to the topmost room in Deathmarrow if i tried :( [20/04/15 00:59] MRWanderer:i wont let her do eeet [20/04/15 00:59] :Masked Figure 4939074 feels the wind on his face [20/04/15 00:59] JadenDew:..?

Happy birthday!

Nice one, if I manage to be online on the scheduled day I am in as well. My sister laylah wishes to sponsor this tournament with a Soulweaver. The criteria/reasons to award it are up to WittyLeWat.

Happy birthday!

Is it today?

Happy birthday Mur :)

I wouldn't go as far as making a completely new creature available to top spenders... We have already several rare/un-released creatures many people would be interested into. Aside from rare creatures, other options could be: - RP items, - Creature power-up / merging, - Spells (regenerable casts), - Answers to specific questions (one per ticket). I'd personally say no to Wish points and tags...

Having run this quest for one year now, I felt like sharing some stats. So far, 44 contacted me to start it. 21 disappeared immediately after, 9 completed it, the others are somewhere on the way. Now, thanks to Chewett, I'm able to award a WP for those who perform extremely well and manage to amaze me. (This also applies retroactively, I already found a couple deserving it) So, ladies and gentlemen! Forget about rabbits and come chasing darkness! :ph34r:

lashtal 221376 1318 AD Necrovion Briskness 1983 + (10 - 100)

Cooldown time for this item?

I can.

Having or not spent a WP shouldn't affect your ability to summon a creature once you reach the place. On the other hand, the inability to recruit while dead kinda makes sense (although I don't know if it was intended or you're encountering a bug).

Happy birthday you two!! Best vibes!!

I would suggest we may go further and at the same time prevent the issue No one pointed. Why not have anniversary achievements? One WP every 365 AD doesn't sound too inappropriate to me. I don't think it would devalue WPs much. One year is one year, doesn't matter if the first, the second or the seventh. Thoughts?

I'm in. ID: 221376

I'm interested in the following items: Canine teeth: 3sc Bloated Knator Head: 5 sc

My item: Mandragora's roots. It's still displayed as Mandragora\'s roots. Thank you.

I'd prefer the second option.

While I'd support all kind of experiments on creatures and totems... I have to express my perplexities on the premise. I believe our creatures are not real creatures, they have neither brain nor need for anything. From my K-doc: <<In MD we are pure spiritual entities, the act of acquiring (or upgrading) a creature, the act of binding it to one's spiritual energy represents to me an expansion of the state of consciousness. From that moment, the owner can 'act' like the acquired creature, being creatures simply different manifestations of the owner's spiritual energy.>> In the light of this, totemizing a creature represents to me a reversible crystallization of thoughts. Like: I don't want/need to behave like a knator anymore (I won't use the knator as a fighting creature) but I want to pay it a "tribute", immortalizing it in a totem form. It's like having a knator pendant attached to a necklace, the difference being you can turn it back to creature (usable manifestation). That said, I like your ideas. I would push them even further... Why not using totems, creatures ash, or creature shards to create hybrid creatures? Like, half winderwild - half knator?

Wanting to get lost, be it in your mind, in a labyrinth, in the open sea... It's no madness. I dare to say -call me mad- it's THE challenge with yourself. It implies abandoning all points of reference and preconceptions, going with the flow... dissolving your ego, your identity, WHAT YOU ARE, and reconstruct it anew. It's pushing the boundaries, it's enlarging the size of the cube. Of course, it can lead to madness: you can get lost. But you know that if you find a path - your path - you'll come out stronger.

I'm interested in: fungal mass grimy snake skin insect pouch monkey claw pestulent arachnid spicy maggots

Ok I took some time to review the announcements published in stage 12 and tried to sum up the most important stuff (at least from the general public point of view). New features: - Purchasable RP items; - Kill contract(s?) introduced; - A25 tools introduced for quests and clickables (or about to be introduced); - Title-docs escaping MD borders (or about to); - Creature shield (immunity to fights); - Pickable items from scenes; Change in features: - Kill and revive items requiring gold to be used; - Fighting cool-down time decreased for allied players; - Max viscosity reduced + NML freed from viscosity; - Tags evolution (multi-tag now possible); - Expire date introduced for some items; Cleansing and cosmetics: - Avatar shop cleaned; - User interface redesigned; - Default items artwork introduced; - HTML5 creature page; Creatures: - 9th and 10th anniversary aramors introduced; - Santa creature level 4 introduced; - Root warrior creature introduced; Politics: - New kings in MB and GG; - Labyrinth Kingship introduced; - MDA land leaders introduced; - Tribunal crown waiting for a head; - Lair Keepers came back; Quests and events: - Build your own drachorn permanent quest; - 3 Spell doc permanent quests; - No more HC or BCH; Admin & organization: - Hidden Council was restructured a few times, then got disbanded; - Public Council was introduced, then disbanded; - Judges introduced; - Mur is back; New skills: - Volition; - Cartography; New spells: - Petrify spell; - Send to Trail of Agony (unless it happened before stage 12); New lands: - Shadow labyrinth (to be disclosed, but I've been there :P); Get involved: - Legacy (people documenting existing features); - Project Omega (know nothing about this); - Sky visibility and sky scouters; Various: - Night mode ready to kick in (what happened to this?); - Adventure Log restarted then paused again; ... I may have missed something, I hope not too much.

Happy birthday Change!

Thank you. It's no big deal, anyway.
