In the next couple of days I'll be adding content to the desert and adding some more specialized merchants in the major towns. I will take a look at and fix the quest on Hundevolk Island. Now that the major home cities are in place, I will add a merchant trading quest - similar to what was in Lomatin on T1, but more expanded. Be forewarned that this will not give you xp for simply being in the party! Found out today that I'll be up regular hours tomorrow and not up all night. Tomorrow night I'll be up and I have the undead areas I'm working on about 75% done. They should be going in sometime tomorrow night. These areas will probably be ideally for classes 6-8 to 20. I'm thinking about putting a lower level undead area elsewhere, something for level 2-12, and attaching a quest to it (and perhaps another wrinkle or two).

I have the Ruins added to T2. I just have to tweak one more area before uploading. I'll do that when I get up...So I should have an update of T2 later today.
There are some new undead creatures; namely, some ghosts and skeletons. You think that's not a big deal - you haven't run into them yet. ;D

I will be between jobs this weekend so I'll be adding stuff to T2. I might even get on and DM on T1 or T2 if I have a chance. I know! THE HORROR

It looks like my job is ahead of the corporation's readiness. I've been around too many blocks to be surprised. What this means is that I have about 10 days off.
I'll be doing a lot of updating and building. T2 will be vastly expanded by the middle of the month.

I have some merchants to add, especially in Northport. There will be a fair amount of various class-based specialty merchants there.
Specialty merchants will take two forms 1) They won't have anything to do with you at all unless you are specifically who they buy from and sell to, or 2) They'll have a seemingly small amount of merchandise unless your character is the right class, race, or alignment.
I am also working on Gnomehome content. I've always envisioned the Gnomes to be fascinated with conversation, magic, and things mechanical, and less so with scruples and morals. As a result, you'll find them doing business with types that others might find unsavory. I am building a tower basement in Gnomehome that is both an introduction to planar/underdark creatures, and has underground river passage to merchant Drow. The Drow connection will be a little bit later on. I'll have to decide whether to be doing a drow home city (which I am leaning toward); and if so then I'll need to decide where the connection to the Gnomes fit in the big picture. In the meantime, I'll have however many levels of the basement in place. For gnomes starting in Gnomehome, this will be a good entry level place to bash things.
I'll be working on content in the next couple of days and doing updates later in the week.

I'll be updating T2 tonight.
I may have a line on a replacement computer, and I'll know more tomorrow.

It turns out I have been working for about a week straight. Ugh. I am working on T2 tonight and should have an update later.
*UPDATE* I'm totally exhausted...I've gotten a few areas done but they're not ready for upload so we're probably looking at midweek sometime. I'll probably do some building when I get up.

I'm almost done with the first part of my additions to Gnomehome, but I think I'll wait until I get up to upload them.
What's being added is Halaster's Tower. In Halaster's basement you'll find odd things...he's not quite sure because he's done a lot of experimenting and doesn't go down there much any more. Eventually there will be passage to the Underdark, but that's not the plan with this update. It's coming, though.
I'll post when this update is in.

Bad news: Working 10 out of 11 days straight. Good news: Everyone is out of town for the next two weeks, so I'll have lots of time to noodle with Talus. Got some home projects in the next couple of days then I'm home free, so to speak.

Dead to the world all day yesterday. I have a lot of projects that I'm having to do in the next week. I will probably spend time doing some playing on Talus because it's been awhile since I've been on.

I've been working a lot of overtime, and 6 days a week. I'm on a 7 day stretch right now.
This isn't going to last forever; I'm making some extra money while I can. In a couple of weeks things will slow down on my end and I'll actually have free time. Right now I have none, so I haven't been involved with Talus.
In the meantime I will try to make some of the fixes I was talking about last week. That's probably going to have to wait for my lone day off on Thu.

Still working at least 6 days a week, only Thursday off. That's going to be the case at least a couple more weeks but it won't be forever, so have patience. I haven't gone away, I just have RL things to attend to.

I managed to strain my back so I haven't been able to sit at a computer and work on Talus. I'll see how I'm doing the next few days. It's nothing serious, just painful....my back is telling me it's been awhile since I've done my taekwondo training.

It's been a long month or month and a half. I've done a lot of working with little to no free time. Things slow down starting this coming week; I'll have some consecutive days off and will be getting back to updating T1 and T2. Sorry about the delay, but it's necessary to get myself established in the new job.

The latest in my corner is that I'm still out a computer so I have not been able to build on Talus. I may be able to address that in a couple of weeks. Right now it's on the back burner because I'm taking care of the final shuttering of my shop building and putting things in storage...between that and work I just don't see being able to deal with Talus for a couple more weeks.
