| 8/6/2001 | Luukos Strikes Again! Voln Swears Revenge! |
|
Reports have come in that due to a dastardly move by Luukos, the Voln Symbol of
Holiness might not affect certain weapons that it was previously able to. Priests of
Voln have sworn that they are attempting to find ways of thwarting this unexpected
move by the dark god, but have come up flabbergasted to date.
(The weapons affected were never intended to be able to be used with this ability. The change is to correct this and set the ability of the symbol back in line with its original intent.) |
