-Fixing bugs

-Working on AI
--this one should be a fun addition as it allows NPCs to have a life of their own. For example, if they are thirsty, they will go get a drink, if they are tired, they'll go home to rest. So far the inn can be found and the waitress works well.

Work is going but since classes have started things have slowed down just a bit. Still working hard on this stuff. Quality is the key.

Working on adding baddies to areas as well as cave/dungeons. Many areas will utilize a population spawning system. What that means is, there will not be the same number of creatures spawning in one area. It will depend on the level of their population (if you kill tons of goblins, we can't expect them to simply reappear from the air).

A new prestige class has been dreamed up. Comments welcome:

Templar
Level 1 - DR 1/-, Favored Enemy
Level 2 - Templar's Protection
Level 3 - DR 2/-, Fighter Bonus Feat
Level 4 - Opportunist
Level 5 - Protector's Strength

Templar's Protection
-The templar's influence calms the nerves of those allies around him giving them a bonus to their ability to dodge opponent's blows. +1 AC/2 CHA Modifier

Protector's Strength
-The templar's skill in protection has honed his ability to attack with unparalleled tenacity giving him a bonus to his attack bonus. +1 AB/2 CHA Modifier, max 4

Requirements:
-8 Ranks in Knowledge Religion, Arcane, or Nature
-Alertness

We'll be adding this in soon and finalizing it.

Still pluggin away. Most of the Alaron areas are done both in and outdoors though some do need to be added. Overall the island is not a bad place to play (imo). I have also spent many hours trying to figure out a way to host through one of the worst (and currently the only one I own) router ever made. If I am able to get a test server up, I would deeply appreciate any and all testing/playing. So far so good.

Fixing small bugs, adding items used to make tents/stools, working out stores/loot bins, testing some hooks into the engine for certain events (ex. hiding, skills, etc.), adding triggers for baddies, and still working on hosting.

Believe it or not I'm still working on this! I am unable to host from home so I am trying to find an alternative I can access to make changes (for free). I am also working on some small quests. I've made a generic mini quest conversation that I can manage via scripting and variables. All that means is I can use the same conversation all over the place and change what is said by the NPC and the PC inside the convo.

WE ARE UP!!

Jack O'Blades has graciously offered to host the server. Currently we have the server up for testing purposes but nevertheless we are up!! Find us on Gamespy under the Roleplay section:

Server Name: Beta MSEraOfPeril
Module Name: MoonshaesEraOfPeril_1u

Come on in and make a PC. Run around and tell me what you think!

OK, all the necessary files are uploaded! The custom server haks are added at the bottom of the page.

--Did some major testing of this
--squashed quote a few bugs

-Item added for Spiritual Weapon spell

-Level 1-5 PCs will now receive the correct remaining time until they may 'free rest' again.

School has been heavy this last week or two so things are slowed a bit BUT I will have lots of free time (hopefully) to get some stuff done over this break. If you have ideas or you would like to see something added, now is a good time to request them.

-Stuff I plan on adding:
--new carpets
--floors that are used like carpets (for ambiance)
--new music (not a required download. Optional for those who care)
