Althanas News Hey everyone, This is a news feature we've added to the site. Every week I'm going to be posting a bit about what is currently going on in Althanas ICly and OOCly. If you have anything you want me to write about feel free to send me a PM, these news updates won't be much fun if you don't tell me what you want to hear about! Anyway, lets hop right to it. The corone war is still going strong, with the raiders currently in the lead. Make sure to check out some of the current battles. Better yet, throw yourself right in, there are still missions available on both sides and your stories could change the future of a nation! Sound interesting? Check out the mission board found Here. Want to participate but don't know much about Corone? Visit This Page for some backstory before you jump in. Want to participate but can't find a mission that fits your character? That's fine too, just pick a side and write away, be sure to mention that the thread is to be a part of the war though, so that your points go to the right team. So who will win? What is the future of Corone? Well Althanas, you decide. There are two threads in the Your Word forum that are a chance for you to let the staff know what you would like to see from althanas. The "Well Althanas, what do you want?" thread is a place to voice any ideas for the site. The "10 favorite Moments in Althanas History" thread is a place to tell us what features you'd like to see back. Overall, the staff is trying to make sure we understand what each and every one of you want from this site. Remember, if you have anything you'd like to see up there let me know! Amber Eyes

Thread of The Week This is where we will put the spotlight on ongoing threads of note in Althanas, giving them a bit of attention. Our first thread of the week is Sagequeen's Escape from Anebrilith. Here's an excerpt, and be sure to keep up with it as best you can... "The height of noon brought with it the brilliant light that filtered through the leaves of Concordia Forest like the translucent stained glass of a lovingly-adorned temple. Erissa sat upon the ground in awe of the verdant beauty, a sylvan wonder the likes of which she could only dream when she resided in Anebrilith. There, she dared not venture into the Red Forest, and rarely did she venture outside of Caedron Hall, her father's home..." Article of The Week This is where we feature one of the articles we've made for the Althanas Wiki so far. Our first article of the week deals with one of Althanas' most dominant religions. The polytheistic belief system of the Thayne. The article of interest is the Codex of Thayne Lore by Ithermoss. Here's a quote about the most feared and reviled of the Thayne, N'jal... "By all rights, N’jal should be an Elder Thayne, although she has been forsaken by the other six. In The Siring (See The Book of Thayne), when the single entity known as the Thayne divided itself into seven parts, there were six portions of it that had inherently distinctly and positive force. What was left over, however, what was left over was the being’s negative force: a destroying and corrupting energy that manifested itself in the form of a foul-looking spider, banished to an asteroid in far orbit around Althanas. She has since sworn to bring back The Days of the Torrent...

Member Spotlight As more and more members make their wiki pages, we'll begin to feature some of them, helping members get to know one another. We invite everyone to make their own pages talking about their characters, their musings, and their ideas. As soon as we have someone with sufficient content, we'll spotlight them here. Judge's Choice Spotlight The Judge's Choice forum is a great source of inspiration. Members should know what others before them have achieved. Our first Judge's Choice Spotlight is a semi solo between Numbers and his alt Les Misérables in Your vices are in order. Here's an excerpt... "Underwood was a transient town. A place where hungry travellers could grab a meal and a night's rest on their way from just about anywhere on Corone to anywhere else. Joshua had departed from Radsanth that afternoon, travelling as the tone of his enchanted metal boots on the city's cobblestones echoed in his mind. By the time the sun went to rest and the moon peeked through foreboding fingers of cloud, he'd arrived at the sparsely wooded fringe where Concordia gave way to Underwood..."
