Looks like a huge nesse heading out of the water in the middle of the picture. Glad he's hanging in Kuras....

This looks great, thanks to Tali, Marleh, and rc23492038 for building a lot of this, and gwydion2 for a couple of temples. :)

Oh MY. I spent a quite a few hours in Kuras in the week :? , and then spent 5 mins in Visimontium :shock: , just a bit ago. I predict now that Kuras will become the 'Deglos' of the north. (Don' get me wrong Deglos is very interesting, btu somethign was always missing that would draw people.) Visimontium ROCKS, it is the capstone to all of Avlis and my complements to the creators of it. If you have time later go improve on Kuras, it has potential, but needs a boost. Once again though, spectacular. As stated above, a piece of Art.

Kuras has its own flavor. It is different than what Visimontium is going to become. Kuras will attract all the police types, and Visimontium will be attracting the mages.

they both have different flavors.

And in the "very cool" news department...
As soon as I can get my act together, and get blessed by TPTB, we will be linking Visi and Kuras.

Slight correction, linking Visi with Kurathene.

Not to hijack this thread, and I haven't been to Visi yet, though I plan to make a trip with one of my characters, but Kuras is also amazing. Visi might look better, but a new server is going to be a new server with only so much you can do.
I think the Kuras team has done a great job building and creating new interesting things for all of us that play there.

Sorry choral.

Yes, Kurathene, not Kuras. :oops:
So, it might be bit longer until that link is made.

Dang... how did I get that wrong?

Let me take this opportunity to extend my offer to the non-bards out there.

If you write poetry or lyics and would like Visi's own Miss Trinash or the dashing Vichardo to perform your works, please submit them to me as a PM.

I already have several wonderful submissions from Brant Risko and Raen. I'm looking for about eight more!
