4th April 2005 - Getting Sand Between Your Toes

April is currently being called the "Desert theme month" and will greatly increase the desert area south of Al Kharid. There will be plenty of new challenges to be found, especially with the Pyramids and Sphinx, and the communities of Menaphos, Pollnivneach and the Bandit Camp.
For years the Al-Kharidians have been at war with the desert folk south of the Shantay pass. Only recently have strangers been allowed to wander the desert freely without fear of being imprisoned and tried for war crimes. We recommend you take advantage of this while you can, who knows when the Sultan will release his next wave of desert raiders? Only time will tell.

The new area will soon boast the most difficult quest yet released in RuneScape, and also some of the toughest people you are likely to meet. Dont expect a warm and friendly welcome in some of these parts, the inhabitants are accustomed to a harsh and hostile life in the desert and see no reason for pleasantries.

Odd birds, and lumbering shadows have been seen and heard during the cold desert nights perhaps they are security for the gods who are worshipped in this quarrelsome place? No doubt Guthix will be interested if this affects the balance of power in RuneScape, I guess we will all know very quickly if it does...

New spells, new cat-based activities, new revealing storylines unravelling a few more of the mysteries of the RuneScape gods, plagues, tomb robbing, camel-trading and even troll-melting will all arrive this month, so be prepared!

4th April 2005 - Ali Morrisane and Pollnivneach

For years the Al-Kharidians have been at war with the desert folk south of the Shantay pass. Only now can strangers wander the desert freely, without fear of being imprisoned and tried for war crimes.
One of the quickest people to take advantage of this is the entrepreneur Ali Morrisane, RuneScape's self-proclaimed greatest merchant. He has set up a market stall in North Al-Kharid, but thanks to his near-mystical sales powers he can hardly keep it in stock!

Pollnivneach, a desert town, home of the super kebab and melting pot where both Kharidian and Menaphite cultures mix, has also opened its arms to travellers in what we hope will be the first of many gestures of reconciliation.

Travel to this desert town should be taken with touch of caution as the desert climate is unforgiving to careless travellers who embark without enough water.

Rumour has it that Ali Morrisane needs an errand to be carried out here, so it may prove profitable to talk to him before embarking for this town.

In other news, Diango the toy salesman in Draynor Village is now selling a new toy.

4th April 2005 - Dragon Scimitar Change

The Dragon Scimitar's special attack has been changed. Unfortunately, the original special attack wasn't working properly and it was impossible to rectify the problem.
Instead we have changed the attack so that it now uses slightly more special attack energy, 55% to be exact, and prevents your opponent from using protection prayers for 5 seconds.

Well, I'll be doing that quest very soon. Also, that behind the scenes update seems cool... New spells, creatures AT NIGHT, and the toughest quest RS has ever seen... Harder than Legends, Regicide, Monkey Madness? *Screams* eek4.gif

Yay.

wow, sounds like some cool updates! Can't wait for the pyramids biglaugh.gif ...but the "the most difficult quest yet released in Runescape" sounds kinda scary 1zhelp.gif

Whats the new toy Diango is selling?

Dragon scimmy special kinda sucks now...I wonder if it stops KQ from using her protect prayers ponder.gif otherwise that special is kinda.... really useless. . .

Nighttime? Hmm, will "game time" finally be tracked, or will it just be a quest gimmick I wonder?

That would be seriously cool if there was actual 'game time' with certain bonuses to things at 'night time' and bonuses to things at 'daytime'.

That, or different events at different times of day.

Kithicor Woods springs to mind. *Shudders* To those who haven't played EverQuest... Kithicor is generally safe to travel through during the day, but at night it fills with buttload of high-level undead.

I wonder, would days be short, or would each server have time equal to the time zone actually happening at that location in the real world?
