Day 12 of 12 - Announcing the SHS Shop!
Tuesday, January 6, 2009
Posted by K'aeloree in General News

Thanks to the hard work of several Staff members, the Spellhold Studios Cafepress Shop is now open! Currently the selection is limited to designs of the “Slayer” variety, but we intend on continuing to expand the number of designs and items available.

Any proceeds from the shop go directly to the SHS server’s hosting fees, and will be publically disclosed much like our donations.

We hope you can stop buy and take a look at what’s available--who knows, maybe you’ll decide an SHS mug or t-shirt was just what the doctor ordered? ;)

You can visit the shop at www.cafepress.com/spellhold! Expect the shop’s design to change as time goes on and with the addition of new stuff--we’ll be sure to post when anything new is available.

One last thing--if you artists out there have a design you’d like to contribute to the shop (and we’d love to see some!), just contact K’aeloree and he’ll do his best to ensure it gets there. Currently the selection is a little plain, so we’d love to see some other awesome SHS-centric designs!

Day 11 of 12 - Release: Epic Endeavors
Monday, January 5, 2009

Props to Isaya for the next release of Epic Endeavors!

Thanks to a few people who helped setting it up, Mac OS X users can now face up the tactical challenges of Epic Endeavours, with the Mac version now available as a separate download!

There is no new content in this version, but it is hoped it will fix a persistent bug with teleportation that too often plagued players who did not own ToB (even on Mac OS X).

Note to Mac OS X users: you may face an issue that prevents the installation to even start, due to a missing file permission on the setup script. If you face such problem, please check the Installation section of the ReadMe to find a simple way to overcome this issue.

Day 8 of 12 - Release: Ninde NPC
Friday, January 2, 2009

Lady Ninde Amblecrown; once Waterdeep’s most alluring young ingenue, now a hunted woman with a tongue like a guillotine, formidable magical skill and a matching ego. Will you befriend her? Grow to love her? Will you even be able to bring yourself to tolerate her?

Her lavish upbringing have perhaps left Ninde with a slightly bloated sense of entitlement that doesn’t exactly suit her to adventure, and certain events of her past darkened her temperament. That’s not to say Ninde doesn’t appreciate life’s more earthy pleasures - men, mead and magic are her self-confessed vices, and ‘being poor, seal-clubbing, and chastity’ the only things she isn’t good at. Although perhaps she exaggerates slightly, there.

Whether Ninde is truly a woman altered beyond repair by the blackening tinct of her past, or the proverbial tart with a heart - well, that’s for you to decide.

The first release includes the romance, NPC banters, PC-initiated flirts, a chat menu and Ninde’s interjections. We hope you enjoy it!
