My wife, for bringing my idea to fruition. When I have what I think are brilliant ideas, but am too technologically inept to accomplish them (read: lazy) she does them for me.
Finally having an opportunity to try 1v1 with my hunter system, and discovering about 30 bugs/missing triggers. Sooon, soon I will stop being a born again newbie.
Starting tomorrow, the IRE games are going to start selling introductory lesson packages that will be available for individual characters at all times.
- All characters will be able to purchase two packages of 1000 lessons for only $10 each!
- Every character will be able to purchase two of these packages, but no more than two.
- You'll be able to buy them at imperian.com/credits, at all times (after tomorrow). You won't have to wait for a lesson sale to purchase discounted lessons.
We'll have another post on this announce board tomorrow once the new purchasing options are live.
Penned by my hand on the 10th of Ferinus, in the year 44 AM.

I HEART finding bits and pieces of Imperian lore all over tucked away areas in the game! So I guess the Obelisks were not magickal, but indirectly brought about its creation when it did some boom boom something something with the moon (now moons).
currently tentatively active (may vanish for periods of time)
So the moon was split into three by the obelisks, if I'm reading that right?
Basically, yes. Think of a regular lightning strike - electric charge in the sky, and electric charge on the surface, but of opposite polarities. Lightning and thunder occurs to equalize the two regions. I guess the same logic applies to the obelisks and the moon, which both amassed diachaim. Moon in sky, obelisks on ground. Chaos follows.

I remember that. I had problems with it because it didn't fit into the continuity of the existing story. It's just another level of creativity packed on the mass that is Imperian
-Caanae people survived, yet there is 0 mention of obelisks
-No one knew of the islands where the caanae people put these super weapons until yesterday? What.
-Obelisks didn't protect the horde. The horde didn't take the technology. Really?
-Diachaim never factored into the moons.
-A lightning bolt broke the moon, really? I've tanked 20 lightning bolts with Fedith.
-A lightning bolt broke the moon into 3 perfectly even and philosophically different mini-moons?
-It was never expounded upon. Ever. At all.
-How these related to shards but didn't relate to shards? What?
I always figured it was a racial (or cultural or whatever) memory, that evolved into a mythos that became the story of how our three moons came to be what they are.
That would be awesome if each faction had their own belief system on what broke the moon. It would fuel a lot of roleplay and open the doors for the whole 'debating without swords' arghpee. The problem is you're going to run into the head-in-sand roleplay of "nuhuh, I have to win."
Don't apologize, I've been waiting weeks for more of magick to have a backbone. It feels good to stretch the crazy side of Wysrias.
@Gabriel tried in a short little session before, but he unfortunately decided to start wailing on Khizan, and, well.
Meh. It was going nowhere fast and I couldn't, as a character, stomach standing idly by with all of the tree chopping and talk of vacation homes goin' on for long. C'est la vie.
I heart the Khandavan 'we have enough, let's help others out' train. Iluv doesn't get it because he's an unwashed, filthy capitalist, but everyone else? Awesome!
