Rules | FAQ | Premise | Applications


i.Main Street

Main Street has settled in for January, but there are still Christmas Decorations here and there to liven things up a little bit. Feel free to shop, mingle with the locals or explore the castle grounds.

Though after hours there are still some shadows that venture into the streets. Not everything here is as peaceful as it seems, and it’s best to defeat the corroded trespassers before they cause trouble.

ii. Cookie Overload

Do you like free cookies? Of course! Everyone does. After the Christmas Rush, there are plenty to go around, available only after the sun goes down to any hungry passerby. There are cookies of all styles and flavors. But watch out for the dreader sriracha cookie. It will make you breathe fire in three flavors and gives a bit of heartburn after, but the aftertaste will leave you craving more.


iii. The Eighth Wonder of the World
Now that the jungle has been purified, Apprentices can wander through to explore all the things the jungle has to offer. Take a (still somewhat shambly) riverboat and explore the river, or come to chat and trade with the villagers. (Shrunken heads, two for one special!) But beware. Even though the jungle is purified, it’s not a safe place. In this kingdom of animals, someone is always hungry.


iv. Pin It On Them
Some smugglers are hanging around the outskirts of New Orleans, selling dubious looking items from even more dubious looking bags. Do you buy from them? Haggle? Steal? (not recommended) Or quietly try to alert any sort of authority (good luck) The choice is yours.


v. Battle Mesa Gate
While the jungle may be purified, many other Kingdoms are still seething with corrosion. Erstwhile Apprentices will find such corrosion on the banks of the Rivers of America, right where the jungle river joins in. Fight corroded creatures on the shore and in the water and be careful, they are stronger than they look and cleverer than they seem.

Amren was enjoying a night out when someone had shoved a cookie in her hand earlier. What was she going to do with this? She can't eat any kind of food.

She was looking at the cookie when the larger (Which just about everyone who wasn't a youngling was larger than her) woman started talking to her. Amren looked up at Scorpia and arched a brow.

"They're called cookies. A type of sweet pastry and are anything but a ration. I think their only purpose is to give children a sugar high."

"Really?", Scorpia said, arching an eyebrow at the news. "The guy that gave them to me said they were alright for me to eat though." She looked at the cookies in her pincers, considering. "You think I should find some kids to give them to instead?"

Amren arched a brow. This one was a weird one, and it wasn't because she had a scorpion tail and pincers either.

"Just because children are usually the ones to eat cookies most of the time doesn't mean that an adult can't eat them either."

"Ah... alright," Scorpia said, giving her a rather sheepish look. "Sorry, I'm still kind of getting used to this place's... well everything about it, basically. It's a lot different than what I'm used to."
