Well Sellara still reigns supreme, and with her Grophamun, but plans are afoot to challenge her to another battle! Can Sea_Mist or katrinaZ defeat her? What is the mystery of the Soul of Nekhefus, found in the sand by Max after he defeated Nekhefus? One thing is for sure ... Sellara and Nekhefus' love has lasted the centuries, even in death ... maybe it can win out now?

Two evil mummies, servants of Arch badguy Grophamun, have been released from their centuries old tombs, and no one seems to be able to stop them! What is the secret of the desert? Who will stop grophamun?

TERROR IN THE DESERT (posted 5:04)

Reports are coming in of some sort of disaster in the desert! Famed archaeologist Doctor Hawawawas has apparently been rushed to a doctor's tent for medical care, and no one seems to know exactly what has happened to his dig. Desert nomads are leaving the area in droves, and they are telling stories of some sort of monster coming out of the sand! What's going on!!

New Combat Action (posted 13:38)

A new default ability has been added to combats, concentration. This will give your stats a small boost for 5 rounds.

COMBATS UPDATED (posted 10:50)

The Combat system has had a major overhaul today. You can now add a stake to combats when you issue the challenge, both players pay the stake and the winner wins the total. The display has also been changed. It now shows the description of your items, as well as how many times they can be used. Items in use are hilighted, and tell you how many turns of effect they have left. Items that have been used the maximum number of times are shown in grey. The new system also means you can now stack different items with the same effect (such as two shields). Previously you couldn't do that.
