      By Nathilia and Salrillian
      STORYLINE:
      Damath, the great Habnabit hero has returned from his the war in Prioth to find the habnabit race nearly vanquished, saved only by the great Ferazel, but now, evil is returning to Teraknorn. Nathas and his brother, Nathalia have found the ancient artifact known only as 'The Tain.' They are using it to create an army of ultimate evil, soon there will be no stopping them. Now Damath and Ferazel must work together to defeat the twin evils.

      PLANNED LEVELS:

      Tombstone
      Damath returns to his home caverns only to find that they have been overrun by the goblin hordes, there he meets Ferazel, who gives him his quest.

      Deeper Darkness
      Damath is drawn to the dark prescence deep in the habnabit caves despite Ferezels warnings

      South-er Pole
      Damath finds a secret passage at the bottem of Habnabit caverns into a new complex of huge caves engulfed in snow and ice.

      Mathan
      At the very depths of the frozen Earth lies Mathan, the high mage and all his apprentices and disciples. Kill him, for he, using the Tain, has the power to wipe all Teraknorn off the face of the Earth. A powerful telaporter in Mathons lair sends you across Teraknorn to the north mountains.

      Fetid Peak
      The highest peak of all the world, dark energies and demons flock to the caverns within. Make your way across these mountains into the caverns below.

      Drachelnach
      Within mount Vylorin lies the underground fortress, Drachelnach, of the fallen king Denethor of Teraknorn. strike down the acolytes of evil and face Denethor. Use the teleporter there to go to the forests of Naph-Lukash
      (IN PROGRESS)
      ------------------

      South-er-Pole has been completed. Its loaded with secrets and traps, and is annoyingly complex. it's buggy, which im striving to fix. Anyone interested in testing email me at (url="http://"mailto:Junkmailreturner@netscape.net")mailto:Junkmailreturner@netscape.net(/url)Junkmailreturner@netscape.net

    • I have started work on Tombstone it is a medieum sized level littered with corpses. Medium traps, Medium hazards, few enemies, but they are well placed

    • Although i didnt plan to make this, it was a good idea in theory, I made a tower level, thin and tall. I havent yet thought of a name so suggestions are welcome. If you are interested email me at (url="http://"mailto:junkmailreturner@netscape.net")mailto:junkmailreturner@netscape.net(/url)junkmailreturner@netscape.net

      Just as a matter of interest why do you have two progress logs. Aren't they supposed to be only on the hacking boards? They say the same thing, even to the same spelling idiosyncrasies.

      To be honest, its cause no one payed much attaention to my old world, so i figured if its on both boards it would get more notice so i could get more testers and such.

    • Eh, isn't the Tain already in use as the artifact in Myth? Seems like this level set is a tad... derivative.

      Heh... ferazel and I have already done the changing-Ferazel's-colors trick too, Salrillian... but then again XR hasn't been released yet so I suppose you could still be the first to publically release new Ferazel sprites 😉

      well, ive never read your progress log (if you have one) so I didnt know that that had already been thought up. You arent Ferazel in my level set so I figured it would make sense to give him a slightly different outfit.

      Play the Myth series. The Tain figures very prominently in all of them.
