Lornius Corporate Challenge
Round 2 has been judged and 3 has begun! Keep up with the matches in the LCC subforum. Congrats to the small handful of teams that have made it this far, the final round is nigh!

Althanas Spawn
Huge congratulations to the new parents here on Althanas! Zook Murnig and Skie and Avery welcomed their daughter Lorelai into the world just a couple weeks before Silence Sei and Amber Eyes got to meet their third son. (Not even rp babies –– real babies!) All in favor to make them Althanas' official mascots, say aye!

Judge's Choice Awards
JCs are exemplary pieces of writing here on Althanas which are collected into a special archive. Recently we announced three new threads to receive this honor:
Adventurer's Crown Solo by Sagequeen
In The Shadow of Oblivion by Sagequeen and Enigmatic Immortal
Child of Darkness by Aurelianus Drak'shal, Warpath, and Luned

Featured Threads
By popular request, we feature current active or newly completed IC threads in each news post. To submit one (either your own or someone else's) for listing, PM Luned. If you're looking for new threads to participate in, check the Role-Player's Corner or look around for those labeled "open". If you're looking for some reading material, look no further than:
Dead Night: The Coalition managed to import a number of necromancers into Corone during the civil war, who were charged with turning the Scarlet Brigade into undead thralls. Now, some time after the troubling disappearance of its members, it is possible that results of the necromancers' attempts have been spotted somewhere in the sprawling slums of Radasanth. (In progress.)
Unserenity: Duffy's been up to some interesting things in the Nexus; check out this space opera for something a bit different than the usual Althanas fare! It is somewhat of an alternate universe deal, showcasing established characters in a new setting. (Solo.)
What Lies In The Darkness: "Shadows. People's own shadows were killing them, rising from the ground and murdering." This is a canon quest in which several writers can volunteer to participate in an event that will affect Althanas' official history. (Open, recruiting now!)
