Headlines
More awesome features!
by Chenoan Cirocco
The new Xanth's Temple skin has now been released for those who don't like the old ones too much and there's another one being made for the few who still aren't satisfied. Sadly, this means that the original Elysian skin, known as Xanth, will be permanently deleted. At the same time, a new health bar has been released in character profiles! Now if your health changes, you can just pop into your profile and you're done. ^_^
Playboy On The Loose
by Piper Kin
Recently, Suka Matali was a guest of the elusive Xanth when he was mentally injured during the rescue of Dazadi. Between attacks on police and innocent bystanders, it seems he should either be in jail or dead yet he is still free to roam Elysia. The main threat comes not from his weapons, however, but his apparent determination to woo every woman he meets.
Hoshiko Revealed!
by Chenoan Cirocco and Thryn Lee
Recently the identity of the player of the mysterious character Hoshiko was revealed as Kinu! Kinu has three other characters: Ryou, Sanura and Laurel. Unfortunately there is a rule that says there's a maximum of three characters per player. Kinu has suggested either killing Hoshiko or asking her mysterious friend to play the apparent murderess. What will happen? Who knows...?
Mountain Expedition, Snowed Out
by Chenoan Cirocco
Recently local explorer Eivyonydd agreed to take three young Elysians, Jade, Kaeldra and Lyf, on a journey deep into the mountains. Unfortunately, all four questers fall below the level 3 limit, so Dazadi was forced to intervene. Apparently, this quest is more than a simple thrill seeker's adventure, but a fight for life. Jade seems to be wearing some sort of cursed ring. Where'd the ring come from? Apparently a safe deposit box at the Elysian bank...
Gryphon Blade Antics
by Chenoan Cirocco
The Derby museum was robbed a few days ago by none other than aides Dazadi and Chenoan! Apparently the only thing taken was an ancient war sword from medieval times. The sword seems to hold great importance to Chenoan, the newest aide, and the 'shifter hasn't been seen without that sword since recieving it. Is there more to it than meets the eye, or is it simply sentimental? You decide.
Editorial
To Xanth: Dear Xanth, can you zap Kinu and Fangers so they tell you who Hoshi is?
-zap- There we go.
To Dazadi: Dazadi, what's it like to have so many people fear you?
Incredibly enjoyable.
To Chenoan: What are you going to do to Kaida when you finally catch her?
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. That's classified...
To Narama (blue imp dragon): Why on Earth did you torch the oasis?
Ad ees. Ad eeeeees!
To Emma: When are the Aides stepping down as governors?
Haha, I honestly don't know. Because Aides are so highly levelled, the challenges have to be open but it's difficult finding time with everything else that's going on. It takes a few days to prepare everything and roleplay the challenge, and we struggle to get people interested in taking on the job, so it's difficult to know which challenge to do first. They will happen though, don't worry.
Do you have a question for Xanth or her Aides, or even one of the Sentients? Sent it in to Chenoan by Thursday and it will feature in the next issue.
