ANNOUNCEMENT: GM Avaluka announced the retirement of the Sprite Quest for new players and in its place is a Tutorial for new folks! It’s called Sulliver’s Travels. New characters beginning in the Landing, Icemule, and Ta’Vaalor can access it – or you can to see it – with the new TUTORIAL command. Take a gander with TUTORIAL START from any of those three towns.

The Sprite Quest has been officially retired and the new tutorial, “Sulliver’s Travels”, has been released. You can access this tutorial upon creation of a new character OR by being in one of the 3 starter towns (Wehnimer’s Landing, Icemule Trace, or Ta’Vaalor) and by typing TUTORIAL START. All information about your current progress in the tutorial can be viewed in the TUTORIAL verb.
While this is meant for new players, any current player/character can go through the tutorial to try it out if they so wish.
Please flag any oddities in the forum post, though many thanks to the various people who tested this last year in the Test Server and caught many of the initial bugs in the system!
