Hilt Fortress Interior

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_1

[A Dev+ Forum Post by Scottie Jones]

Finally I’ve had the chance to complete Hilt’s expansive interior! This map doesn’t include the upper tower itself, which will appear in a later release, but does include all the lower areas deep beneath the earth.

Once you pass through the exterior doors, you will appear in an entry hall adorned with friezes and stone carvings of past Obsidian battles and victories, now defaced and crumbling. The torches are lit, evidence of the kobolds which have decided to make this area their own.

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_2

Beyond, a huge reception rotunda hosts the four stone thrones of the ancient Obsidian generals who once held court here. It has become of den of the kobolds, who just might be willing to make a deal with the players (eventually) which could include escort through these ancient halls if the players are willing to fight an infestation of giant spiders far below.

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_3

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_4

Deeper still are several of the forgotten chambers adjacent to the large barracks, similar to those at the surface. Here the party will discover areas such as the old kitchens and mess hall, armor and weapons forges, and a small armory. The kobolds are frustrated because neither of these proved to be the Obsidian Forge of legend…

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_5

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_6

Below the Barracks a huge, shadow-filled training area sits, choked with vast spider webs and filled with crawling horrors. It is here that the players might find a few meager kobolds attempting (and failing) to fight the many giant spiders that prowl this room, especially the lowest arena floor where the players must cross to go deeper..

Sticky webs seem to halt intruders at every turn, and of course the spiders immediately attack any who dare trespass. At the chamber’s center, a huge nest stretching to the ceiling is adorned at its base with many corpses that have been sucked of blood yet still carry treasures to loot… The players are welcome to continue delving further downward in search of the real Obsidian Forge… The kobolds wish them luck…

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_7

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_8

Below the Training Arena the stairs eventually lead to the main entrance to the Crypts of Eternity… Apparently the ancient Obsidian Builders truly outdid themselves when they found the old lava caves here, because now the grand central crypt hall is an impressive area filled with fly-over walkways, multiple arches leading to tomb-filled halls, and great pillars stretching many stories up and down into darkness. Only further down these side halls might one find evidence of the crude lava tubes they were originally carved from. A single path through this echoing hall, lit by eternal sorcerous crystal sconces, leads to the far side, where a door continues deeper down below… But between here and there, however, sinister green mists rise form the floor and gaunt, skeletal shapes move menacingly through the glowing vapors….

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_9

Below the Crypts of Eternity is a long-abandoned Chapel where the Obsidians once performed dark rites in honor of their dead before carrying them back up to be interred in the endless tombs… This is largely full of collapsed stone and old furniture, including a few supply chambers and the office of the old Chaplain, but the main feature here is the secret door the players must discover that will finally allow them into the hidden volcanic chambers of the Obsidian Forge itself.

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_10

Beyond the Chapel’s secret door, a natural tunnel lined initially with a few crystalline lights leads deeper into the earth, eventually emptying out into a large, dangerous-looking chamber filled with swirling vapors and angry pools of lava…

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_11

Beyond this, at the back of these natural volcanic chambers, is an entrance carved by the Obsidians leading into a large circular chamber excavated to expose part of a massive, alien glyph-covered artifact that seems to be made of volcanic glass even more ancient than that which fell from the shattered moon… This must be the true Hilt that once pierced the land long ago!!! And at its center, under a shaft of crimson light and power that falls from a huge floating piece of obsidian, is the Forge itself…waiting…

SotA_Hilt_Fortress_Interior_12

I hope you’ve enjoyed this little tour through the depths of Hilt! Hopefully I’ll be able to post some more once the tower interior is done… Have a great weekend!

Scottie ^_^


New Britannia’s Next Top Model

SotA_NextTopModel_1

[From a Release 24 Events Forum Post by Lace]

Diamond Fields, one of the newest Player Owned Towns, is proud to announce its first event, [New] Britannia’s Next Top Model. Diamond Fields is located a wagon’s ride from Port Phoenix in the Elysium Isles. Just west of the wagon drop off point, you will find a large catwalk constructed for this event, complete with dressing tents for contestants, a red carpet walk for our spectators, along with concession tents, and a ‘swag bag’ pickup depot.

That’s right, not only will the grand prize winner receive 15,000 gold, with the runners up receiving 10,0000 and 5,000 gold, but also all our lovely spectators will receive swag bags containing fabulous prizes that no self respecting fashion show would be without. Prize money may be increased as we approach showtime, but these are the minimum guarantees.

The rules are simple, contestants will have approximately 2 minutes to use the stage and surrounding area to combine emotes, and their most bold fashions choices in order to take home the cash prizes. Various props are being constructed about the area to allow more creative expression, so contestants are encouraged to come practice on the stage or request perhaps a special prop to be constructed to help them with their routines.

If more than one person wishes to compete as a team, that is fine as well. If you want to have your own music to do your routine with, then there is a piano, but you must supply your own musician(s). To keep crowd expectations high, I strongly suggest all contestants arrive in their street clothes at entrance located behind the stage, and use of of the dressing tents before their debut.

Myrcello’s Peaceful Novia

Community member Myrcello created this beautiful and deeply moving video of SotA visuals that he posted in the Release 24 Screenshot Gallery Forums. Words can’t do it justice so you’ll just have to watch it. Thank you Myrcello!

And in case you missed it back in April, check out the very impressive “I Dreamed a Dream” video, created by Myrcello during Release 16.


Seven Piece Musical Performance

Quality Assurance Specialist, Rhys Romero, happened to be in attendance this week during a 7-piece, synchronized musical performance held in Vertas. Fortunately, community member Elnoth captured a video of the performance, which Rhys shared with the rest of the SotA team. The performance was the brainchild of community member Minerva, who shared these comments:

Arkah EMPstrike is my musical mentor, and I requested that he make ‘Soul Man’ from the Blues Brothers for us to play together. He set to work. Not having brass in the game was a huge challenge but he made the flutes fill in the gap. It was hours of work. We asked Winfield to have his weekly “Fishing with Winfield” event in Vertas, knowing a piano was near by, and that there would be enough people to play.

Most had no idea what they were going to hear but cheerfully joined when asked. We passed out parts and gave out instruments to those who did not have them. Then the magic happened! It was so well received they wanted it streamed, so Elnoth offered to document.

The performers included: Margaritte (lute), Leostorm (drum), Arkah EMPstrike (harp), Minerva (piano), Kazyn PhoenixFyre, Jack Knyfe and Kal Tasker (flute)


Holly Wreath Hats

As part of our continued Holiday festivities we have two lovely Holly Wreath hats that will be available in Release 25. Here is the craftable in-game Holly Wreath Hat:

SotA_2015_Craftable_Snowfamily

SotA_2015_Ornate_Snowfamily


Replenishing Rocket Fireworks Boxes

Just in time to celebrate the New Year, rocket fireworks will be working in Release 25! We plan to expand these over time to include more colors and more types including mortars, fountains, pinwheels, missile launchers, etc. The goal is to give players enough variety that they can produce their own fireworks shows (with musical accompaniment of course!). Look for more varieties and colors next release in honor of Chinese New Year.

Currently available in the Add-On Store for the winter season are replenishing boxes of 50 rockets in three different colors: Blue Rockets, Yellow Rockets, and Red Rockets (Note: the Red Rocket Fireworks Box was previously available in the Add-On store under the name “Replenishing Fireworks Box”).

24 Day Countdown for Winter Reward & Price Expirations

As major milestones such as Alpha and Beta loom ever closer on the horizon, we are announcing the Winter Reward Expiration Event that occurs at 10:30 am CST, January 4, 2016. This event includes the following reward expirations:

Additionally, the price will increase for several Add-On Store items.

[More Winter Reward Expiration details…]


Account Services Vouchers
SotA_GameServices_Voucher_25_thumb

For a very long time now, since before our Kickstarter ended, we have endeavored to satisfy, at no charge, each and every one of our backers’ Account Services requests. As time has gone by, the number of requests for Account Services has grown. Most of these requests have not been related to account or purchasing issues, but pledge transfers and converting add-ons into store credits.

To accommodate these requests, we have been spending an ever growing amount of backer money to devote more resources to support these efforts. We do not consider this the best use of backer’s funds, so we will no longer be performing these types of requests without some way to fund these elective account services.

Effective immediately, Account Service requests may require at least one Service Voucher, including, but not limited to, the transfer between accounts, or conversion to Store Credits, of pledges, Add-on items, or Player Owned Towns. The voucher will be considered redeemed and removed from your account upon completion of the Account Services request.

Service Vouchers can be purchased in the Game Services Store with new funds only (not Store Credit). You will be notified if your service request requires more than one Service Voucher.

Please send us an email at support@portalarium.com if you have any questions about whether a Service Voucher is needed for your service request.

    Portalarium, I would sincerely beg you to waive said fees for any other outstanding/pending purchases/transfers/sales that Lord Andernut is involved with currently. I’m certain that you could recognize that this member of your community is most definitely a valued asset, and his trusted, free broker services have been very, very much appreciated. The “effective immediately” policy that was implemented by your recent newsletter/email seems partially “unfair” (this word is often abused) to this upstanding member, and I feel that it would be appropriate to waive this new “fee” for Lord Andernut (at least for a little while) in order for him to clear-up any withstanding deals he may have on his plate. Thank you for your understanding!

      I already had the fortune of Lord Andernuts service and can affirm the benefit of his service to the community.
