Thought I would share some development update with you all. I am currently working on implementing at least 2 quests per race as well as further fleshing out the game's lore and in-game content.
Developer's Log V.1.0:
- Blossom has been added to the Hethalone powerset, this causes all plants in a player's surroundings to instantly bloom
- Shields now have health. The stronger you are, the more durable the shield you project is going to be. If the shield's health reaches 0, it disintegrates.
- Certain offensive abilities such as Molecular Combustion, Projectiles, Telekinetic Blast etc. now lower the shields health.
- Redesigned the Projection effect
- Fixed the bug which prevented shields from blocking combat attacks
- Overhauled the Power progression system. It is no longer associated with a player's RP status but rather with their level, as the player's level increases they will learn new abilities associated with their skill set.
- Power progression now works on percentages. If you are under level 25, you have a 20% chance of earning a power from the level one tier of that power-set. If you are under the level of 50, this percentage increases to 40% from level one tier, and 20% for a level 2 tier etc.
- Remaking now distributes abilities based on the new power progression system
- Walls and Doors are now opaque
- X-Ray vision has been added, this ability allows players to see through any opaque items such as walls and doors

- Players who are presenting themselves as the opposite alignment are now attacked by NPCs who may mistake them for good/evil
- Zombies of varying strengths have now been added to the Lower Realms as fightable-NPCs
- Added a new Any Alignment Rank (The Necromancer)
