IC News travels slowly in Mizahar. Fortunately there is a constant stream of news from around campfires, from caravan to caravan and from merchants to merchants. Within this forum lies the best of the best of this talk. Also, within this forum, OOC news from the staff and players can be found. This forum requires all posts to be 'approved' by a Founder before they are displayed. So if you post within, be patient. Your post did display - it simply will not show to everyone until approved as actual 'news'. Please keep all Introductions, Status Updates, and various other discussions in their appropriate forums and leave this area for game news!

New Weekly And Ongoing OOC/IC Activities!

Some Additional Fun For Everyone



I just wanted to let everyone know that Riverfall and Wind Reach are playtesting some new ideas to generate player participation in their cities. We have jointly developed the Perks Point System. Any player, even those not playing in either location, can participate. The basic rundown is simply that the more you participate OOC the more you earn IC, though what you earn you have to work for via threads. It sounds crazy, but we don't always have moderator/staff support to bring in cool quest items or say run individual quests for everyone. However, this way your PC can earn very unique, wacky, rare, or even artifact type items that they can legitimately acquire in solo threads by out of character means. Please see the following threads for more information:


We will constantly be updating prizes and perks in these threads, so check them frequently because you never know when something is going to pop up your PC just absolutely HAS to have or that fits your PC's theme perfectly. And start earning points today!

In addition, Riverfall is running a Weekly Design Contest. Each week I'll put out some sort of image to inspire players. They then can develop an NPC, Location, game, anything surrounding that image. The first inspiration I put up was for an NPC but people have already responded with locations, names, games and a ton of stuff in regards to her. This contest should be exciting and it will earn your PC Perk Points to use in the Perk Points Center.

A new image goes up every week, so don't miss out!

Good luck with the Beta testing. :)


12 hour shifts have started, and Im working 6-7 days a week mandatory overtime. My replies will be slow until I can adjust to this new groove.

So are the Perk points specific to the city they were awarded in, or is it an overall thing?
Forecast for tonight... Dark

We are still working out details. That's why we are 'testing' it. :)

This sounds like a lovely idea.
School just started and it's already killing me. I'll try to reply as quickly as possible, but I may be slow.

Can't wait to finish with IRL stuff and get on this :) I'd been meaning to try helping with the world development stuff.
