Despite how I first came across, I have really enjoyed the influx of new people to the area. And I really look forward to the new S'kra residents. I know the typical S'kra is very wary of outsiders, but I enjoy the culture and the people so much that I don't care.
My initial fear is gone and is overriden completely by the excitement of the text city I love booming so wonderfully.

Three new things come to Muspar'i tonight.
First, a new shop on the Street of Stoneworkers may be of interest to certain Moon Mages. The elderly shopkeeper makes a very interesting series of sandstone bowls. You don't have to be a Seer to figure out what they're used for...
Second, the first phase of Shorka's Palace is open to the public... sort of. Citizens of Velaka will be able to access the palace grounds by day and night, while non-citizens will only be able to do so by day, when the gates are open. At night, citizens can either KNOCK on the gates to lead a group through, or OPEN the gates, but the guards will close them again after a few moments. During invasions the gates will neither auto-open nor auto-close, leaving it to Muspar'i's defenders to choose.
Third, there are now two paths branching from the Velaka Trade road that will lead you to Lake Ratamipak, and the saltern shore. Brave adventurers who journey down to the water's edge will find that a curious race called the Isundjen have made it their home, and their little friends the gam chaga are having a field day playing on the shore. The two hunting areas do mingle a little bit, but you'll find that the Isundjen won't venture out of the lake's water, and the gam chaga will avoid any water deeper than their ankles. There's another feature to the relationship between these two baddies that I'll leave you all to discover.
Huge thanks go to GM's Tiesse, Grejuva and Abasha for helping this release run smoothly, and colossal thanks go to the players who turned out for it -- on both sides of the conflict.
Oh, and you know what? I lied. There's a fourth thing. The Hvaral-Muspar'i barge now makes a pit-stop at an oasis in the middle of the desert. Of course, it also goes faster now, too. Even with the pit-stop included, the total trip takes roughly half as long as it did before.

"The S'kra Mur, being S'kra Mur, gather each year ceremoniously around the site to taunt his ghost." ~ A Brief History of Alchemy
This just barely missed the deadline to come out with the other releases last week.
Shasuro's Dyes is now open in Muspar'i -- in all instances -- located on the Street of Alchemists. Shasuro has a plethora of new color options for all of you who aren't satisfied with your bland attire.

<<A museum like Raven's Court with appraisal/scholarship trainable art.
Actually, I could see a having several of the intersections or streets with statues in the center which could serve a similar purpose. Maybe have a recall history tied to each as well, with maybe a perceive history for one or two.

they gave u a bridge to climb and a whole lake to swim in, what more could u want?
and i hope the palace does have cool study'able stuff.
oh yeah would the salinity of the salt lake effect electricty any? i remember they did a mythbusters or something...
and is there anything to do with the salt? margaritas? or is that stealing property? i figured the foreman would give me money for it...

Ok here's a couple of things.
- New hunting, we now have in order of difficulty: Sand Spiders, Tightwads/Moneygrubbers, Westies, Slavers, Zombie Nomads, Gam Chagas and Isundjen conjurer.
- Faster barge route, including a stop over at an Oasis where you can switch barges if you want, much faster ride.
- New shops including a sandstone bowl divination shop, a dyer that works on cloth and metal, a NPC healer, a locksmith.
- New housing in 3 areas, one is S'kra only, one is upper class on the Street of Proprieters and one is on the Velakan trade route (also very nice).
- Palace road is now open, you must be a citizen to enter at night or be travelling with one.
- Many events taking place in Muspar'i lately. The most recent involves the Sand Elf Necromancer Lhars and the gam chaga's he created.
Er my internet's being wierd so I need to sign off, hopefully someone can pick up where I left off. Thanks!

<<Or up the spawn rate of conjurers/camgas >>
This is only the second time I've seen a request to up the conjurer gen rate. Anyone else care to chime in? Are most people relatively satisfied with their current rate, or are people not hunting them because there aren't enough of them?

>>Some neat releases, and probably people running around saying nothing but "Shade and Water" to each other.
Nice. But there is none of that nonsense going on up in Muspar'i right now. Trust me, I'd be really unhappy if there was.
>>Anyone else care to chime in? Are most people relatively satisfied with their current rate, or are people not hunting them because there aren't enough of them?
I think the trick is, the deeper you go into the area, the more conjurers you get. But I also hunt with Call of the Siren until I get a nice room full. If I had time, I'll try hunting without it. But I think if you know how to work the area (gam chaga's in the shallow part and conjurers as the water gets deeper) then you're all set. But as I said, my results could be skewed.

i would like to travel to Muspar'i and wanted to check here first to see if there is anything i need to know before i set out.
the reason i am asking is because i recently traveled to Shard only to be turned away by the guard at the gate. i then traveled to Boar Clan but got stuck crossing a river because i wasn't good enough at swimming. so this time i thought i'd ask first for advice first.

it would be good if you downloaded kraelyst's travel script, it does a check to see if you need the passport.

You need the passport that was mentioned. The location you can find them in is located on this map:
http://www.elanthipedia.com/wiki/RanikMap42
Other than that, I would check maps for lands you'll be traveling through. There are some areas with creatures on the way to Muspar'i, so in some parts you may need to travel quickly.

The barge ride to Muspar'i is long, so make sure to bring something to keep you amused. Also, don't go down the trail; That leads to a desert that is home to a few very unpleasant critters.

>>The ride time has been reduced significantly. I would say the barge rides from Haven to Lang and Haven to Throne are longer. At least it feels that way to me.
It's about a 10 minute ride, with a 2 minute stopover at the oasis. Way shorter than it used to be. I've been here a few weeks and I'm loving the place, and big thanks to Terra for her hospitality.

due to family issues beyond my control, on December 29 I'm putting my Simu account on hold and have no idea when I'll be back to work on the Muspar'i wiki. While Im pretty sure I'd have internet where Im going (Dutch Harbor Alaska...NOT the fishing boats. I have family that actually lives there) I wont have any time for playing. So, you people that live out here in this city and know it backwards and forwards, Work on the wiki. Get it up to date. It needs a bit of TLC from people to be a really great page.
I hope to be back within a couple of months, but no promises.

Ok I know that Muspar'i and the Outcasts are not the same king. It is my understanding that the Outcasts have a domain OUTSIDE of the city walls. Within the city is ruled by King Arhhdan.
I want to do more things to associate Muspar'i has it's own territory, not by something the Outcasts are a part of. Even King Raenilar met INSIDE the city gates with his Outcasts the other day on the street of cloth weavers. Here are some things I would like to see and some things I am willing to help along with.
1. More Muspar'i only events that do not specifically involve the Outcasts unless by invitation.
2. Outcast meetings taking place only outside of the city walls from this point forward, unless granted access by King Arhhdan or Ithida.
3. More interaction with the Muspar'i nobility.
4. More Muspar'i RP in general, something I am slowly working on.
Now I know the Muspar'i GM's have done a LOT in terms of making it a more livable place. I never even thought I would see so much incredible development in my time playing DR, but I have and for that you have all the praise in the world. I also understand Muspar'i is run a certain way. It's not like some of the other cities who have Courts and things like that.
Anyway just hoping to see some more people up there to RP with. Alexii left, Lomelinde is an Outcast (Although easily one of my favorite people to RP with in the game) and a smattering of other people, a quarter of which are Jappal's wives.
