Oh no! The Shadow Weavers are bugged.

That's right everyone the bugs are bugged. There have been reports (Some I have personally witnessed) when you fight the Shadow Weavers in The Crucible instance to get to Vesna Shadowscar that after you defeat the 4 Shadow weaver minions it says you need to defeat them again. This of course will cause a minor inconvenience for some as you'll most likely have to fight them again to further in this particular part of the quest. Just make sure you report the bug to KI and provide as much detail as possible and remember to be safe and wary.

Alric R. and The Lady Mercenaries!

As many of you know or have guessed now I'm really tight with most (If not all) The Mercenaries for Hire team over at Central. Today I was lucky enough to hang out with the mercs and do a little Shadow Weaver crushing!
Its interesting to note that while I was with these wonderful Soldiers for Hire A few fellow W101 members allowed a screenshot or two of the new gear (Possibly common?) I don't have clothing images but rather Stat images anyway I'd like to thank Keira Nighthunter,Cassandra Dragonheart,Alura Hexcaster(As her Death Alt),Sabrina Rubybreeze,and James Ghostrider for their assistance in making this story possible.
Look how cool we all look here.

Oh my Lady Luna!

Today I decided to take a break from leveling up Isaac Storm My storm wizard for some well deserved training for Lady Luna (Who saved my tush more then once against the Death bosses of Wizard City) and just some fun for myself 35-40 Minutes later She went up from sweet new to the world Luna to I think I know everything and will live forever Teen Luna both though are in my favor as I unlocked an awesome Derby skill and neat Talent.


Perfection!!! What can I say Lol.
Slick-N-Slide Oh my!
Now I need a Talent where I'm immune to Debuffs and Lady Luna will be perfect for the Pet Derby. :)
Added Accuracy to Life spells is nice now I won't have to worry about the 5% chance my Treasure Centaur will fizzled in a tough situation Life wizards know what I'm talking about that one time you need your Centaur to hit and you know it will and BANG Fizzle just right when you wanted to do that Uber awesome hit against Malistaire.

Ravensinger Diary : Entry 2 - Chilly birds and Angelic voices.

So in this entry about my W101 adventures I can happily report that I have found Taylor Swift yes that's right the Taylor swift Prof. Greyrose was talking about on twitter which can be found below.

So without further ado here is myself and Taylor Swift lol.

Also a few days ago I decided to do a Kensington Park run with Kevin Battleblood and his little posse.
First of all I'd like to say that Kevin and his group of friends are one of the most organized team of players I've seen they had a mission (Stoker) and prepared promptly. It was quite a change of pace from the more laid back play I do with my friends. All in all though it was a fun run and I can say now two things first off I love the Ice Bird pet that Kevin had and two the Seraph pet is officially mine though I admit I wanted the Spider Golem pet. Here are some screen shots of Kevin's Ice bird laying some smackdown on 1st Stoker and My dear friend Brianna (Some of you might know her as Alura Hexcaster she is a Mercenary for M4H on Central).

Sneak Peek My new Fanfic!: The forgotten Army

 Celestia Myths and Legends
By Bellicus

Erisa Goddess of discord
Leader of The Dyscordian Army
Her goals the ruin of Celestia and the enslavement of it's people to her will.
She and her army were nearly successful in Celestia's downfall when an unknown enemy appeared not even a god could foresee. They swept across the land mighty and terrible like the great Titans themselves. They defeated the goddess and her army and imprisoned them never hoping Erisa would come to power again. For they wanted Celestia to themselves. But the goddess and her army did not perish for a god doesn't die so easily. Erisa and her army survived the long centuries for as long as she lived they did master and servant linked forever. Trapped and entombed Erisa and the Dyscordian Army wait silently beneath the waves. To be reawakened and to take vengeance on the force that supplanted her long ago-the Shadow Weavers and once again rule Celestia with a choking grasp.
(The ancient book is damaged its impossible to read further)

Reveal: Celestia Wallpaper adds a new character-Brass Man!!!


So today KI has graced us with a new a character reveal one people have been asking about since this Wallpaper was first revealed to us. Introduce Brass man who with his drill and diver armor looks like a Marleybonian creation (Though its very possible that I'm wrong) that does the dirty work literally for those cats and dogs (Probably more for cats cause of their issues with water) and their reserach into all things ancient.

Remembering the past and looking toward the future.

So I watched Toy Story 3 on friday and was really moved by the movie. Basically Andy is all grown up now and has forgotten about good ole Woody and the gang. Without ruining the movie for you folks i'll just say the movie ends on a good note but also leaves a sad impression on you especially those who grew up with the series like myself. But that's not what this is about its about growing up and how we forget the things and people who once made us happy. I just want to tell you all to never forget those things even in a game like Wizard101 where having the best gear has replaced things like having an item cause you obtained it with a dear friend. The same goes for people I have seen it myself deleting true friends for a game figure. I myself have been caught in this vicious cycle of popular trending. So I say to all you know never forget those things once upon a time we were all novice wizards and had friends who we quested with in Wizard City. Never forget them they are our true friends. Happy Farming!!!

Happy Father's Day!!!

I'd just like to wish every father across the Spiral Happy Father's Day.
It takes a lot to be a father and in today's world it can even be tougher so lets honor those father's who have.
Whether your a new father or have been a father for many years thank you all for being there to shows us the way when we get lost or to help us pick up ourselves when we have fallen and can't see the light no more for teaching us it's not only just having a child but about being there all their lives cause that's what makes a real man actions not words. So again thank you all fathers and a personal thanks to my Brother Chris who wasn't just my brother but also my father I'd be lost without you bro and I love you. :)

  Happy Farming folks!!!

Comic/Site News:Fame At a Price II Postponed Indefinately

I have decided to postpone Fame At a Price II which would have starred Leesha Darkheart and Stephen Spiritcaller indefinably. After the The Friendly Necromancer Arch is concluded which will be soon. As you may know Friendly's arch is Season I and after it I've decided I want to start something different now so I after a few days of debating have found what I wanted to write about as many of you know yesterday I and Friendly posted (and probably many other sites and blogs) posted about the Celestia hints from Beckett Pokemon Issue #127 I have decided to write a Fan fiction of sorts about a Mercenary who is hired to accompany a Marleybonian Team to an alternate excavation site The Marleybonian team and this Mercenary soon discovers a lost and forgotten temple they begin to unravel its secrets and soon find out some things were better left forgotten.



I will probably spend awhile writing up the first parts so don't expect this for awhile but soon I'll start to introduce characters from the story.

So for now I introduce the title of this story

Beckett Pokemon Issue #127: Reveals Celestia hints/questline and new Villians!

So after I read this on Central I decided this needed posting quickly this sort of exploration excites me greatly and I am giddy as a girl for Celestia now enjoy. Credit of course to Willowdreamer on Central for providing the story give them your thanks!

"After attaining the rank of Grand Master and defeating Malistaire, you are summoned to Ravenwood by Halston Balestrom, who explains that he has received a cryptic message on a strange device, the Resonating Omni-Audio-graph.
Balestrom asks for help decoding the message and sends you to Krokotopia to fina an ancient artifact that will help in the translation. Upon arrival, you discover that the item you need has been stolen, broken apart and scattered throughout the Spiral by a group of mysterious villains."
"It's up to you to travel across the Spiral and defeat a cadre of villains to get the pieces Balestrom requires. Gradually, you learn more about these mysterious enemies, discovering that they are the Shadow Weavers, a secret order of Wizards with sinister plans.
Upon successfully decoding Balestrom's mysterious message, you learn that it originates from a long-lost Marleybonian survey team from the Spiral Geographic Society, a league of explorers who set out long ago to find the lost world of Celestia. According to the message, the explorers believe they have stumbled upon an important discovery, but they are trapped and in great danger!"
"With this new information, Balestrom concludes that the Shadow Weavers are after the ancient Spiral Key to Celestia, held in the Spiral Geographic Society archives. He asks you to travel to the Society headquarters and retrieve the Spiral Key. However, upon arrival in Marleybone, you discover that this simple errand will become a daunting trial, requiring you to overcome a squadron of Shadow Weavers and other powerful forces eager to keep Celestia lost and its secrets unknown.
After defeating the final enemy, you find a blackened, broken Spiral Key... now you must discover whether it is shattered forever, or if it can be remade to function again!"
Willowdreamer also provided Pictures from the Magazine.
