How Servants Pass the Time
Roarkian 14th, 480 CE: Getting lost while trying to find help is bound to make anyone a frustrated, weeping mess, right? Poor girl, this Moana Cracy, she arrived in quite the state of upset already. Things were uncertain when our own Heart of the Crescendo, Marquessa Xeii Shevat, could not calm the woman but as…

Dear uncle, How’s yer leg? I hope my cousins aren’t giving ye too much trouble lately. Anyways, ye wouldn’t believe the things that have happened to me since the beginning of the year! I know ye always shook yer head at my hunting and tracking ways. “Settle down to a real business”, ye always said,…
Read MoreThe Testimony of Baeroc Spineson
From a testimonial pasted in Stewartsville and then very quickly taken down: Baeroc was a simple man, a weaver, oh yes, before his glorious transformation: a simple man from the Stewartsville outskirts who did not know the blessing he was given when the glorious greev spores blew past his cottage, when he was seeded with…
Read MoreThe Essence of War
Refusing defeat, Sirsia Pois arranged the robbery of Celest’s schematics and, with Countess Kalas Cyna’s permission, proceeded to build their own machine for the Engine to harness dark essence to re-taint the Inner Sea. After additional inspection, she found a flaw in the schematics and utilising wood and dark essence, fashioned a weapon that could…
Read MorePurification Backup Plans
Though not immediately noticed, a dead fish arising from the foulness of the Sea, gave Velho Caleb Luminare much pause and he immediately requested guidance of his fellow citizens. Student Laurent and Duchess Auriella took to arms with many questions, but more urgently, seeking solutions. Laurent began by speaking with Lanikai, who seemed to not…
Read MoreTainted Promises
On an otherwise normal day for the Engine of Transformation, one Sirsia Pois arrived and a deal was struck with the Warlord, Avurekhos Feyranti, and the Chaplain, Marcella n’Lochli to deliver a miraculous feat that would spread the Taint and the Glory of Magnagora further. Despite Sirsia Pois’ own doubts about the true strength of…
Read MoreDigging a New Life
Grumbles and grunts echoed across the Basin as gruff orc-like voices shouted about their hard work to the unmoved demands of an orclach. Spirit Warden Xenthos An’Ryshe, Spider-tender Athree, Chaplain Marcella n’Lochli were the firsts to arrive, soon followed by Countess Kalas Cyna. The orclach in charge, Hethklyff Ruag, explained the incompetence of the hired…

Lusternia Gets a Facelift Website Facelift! Check out the new website. We’ve updated the entire look and feel which should be sleeker and easier to navigate around.

Read MoreTrialante, the Untamed Muse
It was Avechary, 477 years after the Coming of Estarra, and the word in the Serenwilde was sparrows: Sparrows on the ground and sparrows in the trees and sparrows up in the sky. They sang a song that rang in the hearts of Serens who were present in the forest. Along with the sparrow song,…

Hail Basin, I, Lebo Needles, have requested and been sanctioned to allow this report for the Order of Shallach to be seen by all. It is rather rudimentary; I am still getting used to writing reports, but I hope it suffices and informs anyone who could not be present in Lirangsha. Cordially, Lebo Needles Shallah’s…
Read MoreFactions Roundtable!
Now that all of new guilds have been released, I thought it would be nice to give a little closure and behind-the-scenes insight to our overall process for both the events themselves and the development of factions. I wrote up a couple questions and nudged all of the admin who helped out to give their…
Read MoreYear in Review: 2016
What would Queen Maeve say about 2016? Perhaps she would remark how fantastic it was that she entered the year with the removal of the Brand of Nifilhema that she bore for so long. Or perhaps she would despair over the loss of her beloved consort. If this was how the year began for the…
Read MoreThe Lightweavings of Isune
Arriving with little fanfare, an eccentric trill artiste meandered through Hallifax to seek aid from the city’s finest artist. With the air of a mysterious stranger, this eccentric trill beseeched the Chairman Falmiis Shevat himself for escort to speak with whom she sought, Shalmae Silverplume. After ruffling a few feathers and subsequently smoothing them over,…

Good times and bum times, I’ve seen them all And, my dear, I’m still here! These Stephen Sondheim lyrics run through my head as I think about this improbable project called Lusternia. While the notion itself was fantastic that I would create a new online game, at no time did I look forward and imagine…
Read MoreYear in Review: 2014
Lusternia reached a tremendous milestone as 2014 marked its ten year anniversary. It seems like yesterday that I was rushing to finalize the rooms and skills so Lusternia could be released in October 2004 as we had planned. There was so much to do! The Skarch Desert had to be completely described (for rather contentious…
Read MoreYear in Review 2013
Once again, we find another year has come and gone, and it comes time for me to look back and review the year as it has unfolded in 2013. What should be fresh in everyone’s mind is the Red Star event which has its roots extending back many years. Perhaps some of you may remember…
Read MoreYear in Review for 2012
The Year of 2012 has flown by faster than any I have seen yet! As usual, at the end of the year, I like to look back and see what has transpired in Lusternia during the past twelve months. Frankly, I am rather proud of how many events and new releases took place during that…
