| 4/30/2006 | AELOTIAN RELIGIOUS DISSENT. |
|---|---|
|
By the word of the Aelotoi Elders at a recent town meeting in Cysaegir, the traditional worship of L'Naere will continue to be fostered and encouraged for all of their people. Still, a minor contingency of the Aelotoi decry this edict, choosing instead to establish their own means of worship to the Arkati and other Immortals of Elanthia.
----- Characters of the Aelotoi race are no longer prevented from becoming members of the Cleric or Paladin professions. Discussions on the topic should take place in the Aelotoi folder in the Races of Elanthia topic of the forums: http://www.play.net/forums/messages.asp?forum=102&category=10&topic=2 |

| The GameHost Program is looking to add a few new members to its team! What is a GameHost you ask? Good question! They are the liaisons between GM's and the players when it comes to technical and game-related issues. They are the basic "frontline" in the chain of Customer Service. GameHosts are required to have a good knowledge of the game and should be able to answer questions about basic technical issues and general gameplay. They must also possess excellent customer service skills, be able to commit to a set shift schedule of six hours per week, and have demonstrated a history of following the policies of GemStone IV. GameHosts must be at least age 18, have advanced a character to level 14 or higher, and have played GemStone IV six months or longer.

|
Fed up with their lawless town, the Aelotoi of Cysaegir have granted the title of Magistrate to one of their own. "No longer will criminals be allowed to roam free in our fair city!" the Magistrate declared upon receiving her new title.
Cysaegir now has a fully functional justice system within its town limits. The arched opening near the pool in town will lead you to the Reformatory, and any incurred fines should be paid to the clerk in Rhyaesdid Hall. |
