• April 16th - Maloria - Weathering the Storm

We, the Maloria team, have been working towards what can only be seen as one last push in an attempt to restore the server into it's former glory. If we will succeed or not is entirely up to the amount of dedication we put into our work, both now and in the future.

We have always had a very small and closed team, but now we're looking to expand upon it. As such, we're looking for people with that little bit extra. We value creative people that can really involve themself with the gameplay and come up with their own ideas on how to improve it. If you are able to recognize yourself in this and want to know more, come have a chat with us on the server!

Not only seasoned developers are welcome, but we are also interested in you rookie developers!

- Ziro, Manager of Maloria

• April 2nd - Valikorlia - Finally back in Action

As many of you may know, Valikorlia is primarily a roleplaying server meaning combat is usually conducted using text, but not anymore! With the release of the new combat system players can now fight in open combat to either pass time with friends or enhance the RP experience of all players involved. The new combat system is intended to be fun and doesn't have any penalties for death or rewards for the winner.

In addition the fishing and mining have been re-implemented, get involved in these fun activities to relax from the role-playing experience and earn some coin to spend on new items and gear.

For further information regarding the new updates please use the links below:

March

• March 3rd - Graal Kingdoms - Day of the Sun

Every year the Cult of the Sun performs a ritual to bring warmth and life back to the barren, frozen world. Without performing the required rites, the world will be engulfed in an eternal sheet of ice and snow. Also during this time the Sun’s entity, the Bringer of the Sun transcends to earth from the heavens to lead the ritual. For the first half the ritual was carrying on impeccably with no interruptions. In the final moments of the ritual, the Bringer of the Sun is at its most vulnerable state. Nearly completing, we were ambushed by a powerful unknown force. Most of our priests and initiates were slain in an instant. Amidst the chaos, I laid eyes upon a power figure emitting an aura as powerful as the freezing winter itself. That’s when I knew who we were facing; The Vile Ice King and his legion of forgotten frost. The horrendous figure strikes down the Bringer of the sun in one fell swoop. Before losing consciousness, I see the entity taking something from the Bringer of the sun....

The event will run on Saturday, March 3rd between 0000 - 0300 Server Time. For more information please click here
