Asherons Call: Quest Updates: Player Killer Lite

Very few of those living upon Dereth maintain a pacifist outlook on life for more than a few days or weeks after arrival - the newcomer's first encounter with a vicious Banderling or Mosswart will usually dictate the tone of their relationship with Dereth's fauna for a long time to come. This applies even more strongly for those unfortunate enough to arrive during our present time of turmoil - the Olthoi do not exactly welcome new arrivals to this island.

For the most part, however, the blood lust of the average Isparian is constrained to act against the hostile fauna of this land - indeed, those who try to engage their fellows in combat find themselves inexplicably unable to land a blow or blade upon their opponent. Such is the effect of the protection Asheron has placed upon us.

Soon after our freedom from Olthoi rule, it was discovered that this protection was not immutable. For those willing to follow the path of Bael'Zharon, the effect of Asheron's protection could be nullified, and violence was once more an option that could be employed to the resolution of disputes - at least, amongst those also treading upon the same dark path.

This state of affairs continued for many, many years... until last month. Thanks to the efforts of a green-cloaked assassin, it is now possible for anyone to circumvent Asheron's protection with a simple effort of will - and without the danger of hard-earned belongings parting company with their owner. Our very own BBQ Bob has been kind enough to risk his pride, if not his possessions, to research this new development, and he his now ready to present his conclusions.

Those with a violent nature are invited to visit our Quest Compendium, where you may begin to satisfy your bloodlust with the help of the aptly-named Player Killer Lite. Just remember - clean up your corpses!
