Richard “Lord British” Garriott and other team members will be hanging out on Reddit today! Click here for the AMA link.
We are focusing this AMA on questions about the game’s development, though will consider what questions we can take related to our equity crowdfunding campaign currently running through SeedInvest. Please know that we will do our best to get to as many questions as possible, but we may not be able to answer everything in the time allotted.
Thanks Shroud of the Avatar redditors for allowing us to promote the AMA! We can’t wait to have a great chat with you.
Greetings Fellow Avatars!
Here’s what we have for you in this week’s edition of Update of the Avatar:
A New Look to Celestis Scene
Celestis is an NPC town currently in the game, but is being uncloned for Release 43. Changes are being made to make the scene look more like other nearby Perennial Coast scenes. In Celestis you will find an outdoor theater, beautiful rock garden, and several hidden ‘easter eggs’ for you to find!
We will be kicking off this week’s Community Livestream by giving players a first look at changes to the uncloned update of Celestis! Chris “Seawolf” Wolf will be driving the master build machine as we get a look around the scene and its surprises.

After the scene changes go live, we have even more content, including quests, you can look forward to in future releases!
The fun begins on Twitch this Friday at 4pm CT. Also join the community watching on Discord chat to ask questions about this scene.
As you all saw last week, we announced a unique way for you to become a part of the Portalarium team by investing in the company through our equity campaign at SeedInvest.
This campaign has since gone from reservation status to investment status.
If you have contributed but have not logged and updated your SeedInvest account since Wednesday, June 7th to make the switch to investment status, please do so now!
We continue to see a ton of great questions around the campaign with many community members hoping to participate but are unsure how it works. Today we announced two Q&A sessions with investors and those interested in becoming an investor:

New Libris Ruins Screenshots & Video!
[From a Dev+ Forum Post Update by Esteben “SorcerousSteve” Zaldivar]
Hey guys! SorcerousSteve here to give you an update on Libris Ruins!
I am approaching completion of the the worldbuilding phase and now with all the major POI’s in place I will begin spawning the map with lots of bad guys and yes, traps.
Looking to the North the ruins of the ancient courthouse are dwarfed by rugged cliffs in the background. To the lower right we can catch a glimpse of the Sanctus River flowing by.
We will be kicking off this week’s Community Livestream by giving players an in-depth look at the upcoming Libris Ruins scene! Esteben “SorcerousSteve” Zaldivar will be driving the Unity client as we tour around the scene. We hope to have Libris Ruins live in-game in Release 43.
The fun begins on Twitch this Friday at 4pm CT! We may even catch part of the Release Dance Party at 2-4pm CT. Also join the community watching on Discord chat to ask questions about this scene.
While you wait for tomorrow’s stream, check out last week’s Update #230, where we show off Libris Ruins screenshots for the first time.
And just in this morning, a video tour of the scene ahead of today’s livestream!
From the journals of Elbyon, the Ranger of Kahli…
With the skeletons of Ravensmoor closing in upon me, I had no choice. Kahli. Certainly the rumors of peril arising from this land could not be so true, and most assuredly, could not compare to my impending doom by skeletal hand. Holding my panicked breath as if plunging into frigid waters, I ducked into the darkened canyon, descending through twists and turns akin to a maze. Even the undead dared not to follow.
What have I done?
But ahead, a glimmer of light brought me hope. Approaching, there be three disheveled merchants, forlorn, all but emaciated, and with only a paltry amount of supplies for trade.
“Traveler! Come, quickly, to the light of our fire! The night here… it becomes too dark. Do not get lost in that madness. Are, are they gone? The walking bones? Can we finally leave?” implored the raggedy banker, long since away from her comforts and riches.

Boreas Colossus Scene (Unclone)
[From a Dev+ Forum Post by Travis “Vas Corp Por” Koleski]
We continue our development of the Colossus scenes with a sneak peek of the second scene, Boreas Colossus! Currently in-game is the Oracle Colossus scene we covered in a recent video in last week’s Update #227. We hope to have the following Boreas Colossus scene in Release 43:
Once again, having taken to the field, I, Earl Greyhot, bring you a first hand account of my extensive travels. This journey has brought me to the site of the Colossus of Boreas. A sleepy fog has taken hold of the mountainside and it begins to rain as I make my way through the many trials necessary to reach the giant statue itself.
I came across strange architecture and flora around every corner…
