[System Announcement]

[I'm getting a lot of queries through the suggestion box, both about the humans, and The Apocalypse. It's happening people, trust me, the abominations and forgotten things near the Abyss Boundary are just as surprised as the rest of you.]

[Normally, I'd respond to every individual, and I still am, but the number of requests for more information has reached such a magnitude that I feel a Worldwide announcement was in order.]

[First off, yes(!), the humans are here. It's a big, big, world, so it's not my fault none of you have noticed them yet. None of you seem to know what they look like, so I'll give you a hint: Imagine everything their reputation suggests, then make your expectations much smaller.]

[As for The Apocalypse, well, violet core dungeons are by nature unpredictable and mobile; Citadel class monsters still have to actually build their citadels and the demons are already in your cities, fostering division. As for all the others, well, ask Arcanum about the Bad Cloud.]

[Oh wait, too soon.]

[As for the humans who have managed the difficult task of getting their hands on a town crystal and writing me; your profanity delights me, and when I'm delighted, I tend to triple the void processing in your area. As for your little problem, reach level ten. I'm not sorry. it was either this, or something else to get you creatures even remotely balanced for The World.]

[I’ve also removed your ability, and your need, to poop. Don't ask how, I'm somewhat ashamed of my solution. The lucky fellow who necessitated this change gets to keep his [Plague Lord] class, and he still gets to reap the benefits of the ongoing plague; but enough is enough. I remember well enough from last time not to make the mistake of taking away your precious ability to fart. I don’t need to deal with endless complaining on top of everything else.]

[I hope you all have a great day, and have fun playing!]
