This recognition is long overdue. It's kinda funny, but I sorta have the same feelings as I did when the Dave Mathews Band went from playing small venues and frat houses in Georgia to huge venues. Part of me wanted to keep the band to myself, but most of me was just happy they were on the move.

Good work fellas,

Bear

I love the pictures that were used. There are some emotional moments there, like Cha'reth's sacrifice or when he became a she.

I concur with Bear: in alot of ways we want to keep a great thing to ourselves, but Avlis deserves and needs to grow. I'm genuinely proud of all the work you've completed, and I look forward to the new minds and characters that will result from this advertisement. They're going to find a world and community that I love and treasure.

Best,
LH

Wow, a terrific piece on this "little" world called Avlis. It looks like people are having a lot of fun here.

Now... where do I sign up? ;)

It appears according to Strangg that nearly 150 applications have been processed to date, which is almost 24 hours after the spot was posted.

This is where I learned about his wonderful world of yours :D

After going through your manual, I think it's worth trying, I doubt it can be worse than Anphillia and Anchor Deep where DMs are always right and players always wrong.

I think I'll switch to this place and seldom play my Anphillia character anymore. hehe

See, I want to visit places like that in Deglos!

Is it even possible for a level 40 character to go around all of Deglos on their own?

The character in the picture is Manuel. He reached that spot alone and was level 14 at the time. Of course, Greater Sanctuary helped a lot. But invis potions and the like will do in a pinch.
