War's over!

I've disabled missions being generated. Next Howling no more will appear. You can still complete the ones you have for more rep/tokens. We're discussing conversion of that reputation into the proper org version. Org shops will stay open and I'll mention in a changelog when we add more items.

Quests and RP rewards will progress over some time as the factions recover and build, keep an eye on what they're up to.

Big reward time!

The Kobold race is now available, with a beautiful new format in its helpfile! Their mechanics follow:

Default statpack: Adaptive
Level 1: Nightsight
Level 25: Dig
Level 50: Scavenging
Level 75: Tinkering

Scavenging
----------
SCAVENGE <crafted item>
Destroy a crafted item for a small chance of regaining commodities used in its creation. The more decay time left, the better the odds.

Tinkering
---------
Items crafted by the player will have a 10% longer decay time.



A new item for the Ophidian faction shop:

a crystal of Kobold rebirth
---------------------------
When this crystal is in inventory, those level 98 and below will be able to REINCARNATE INTO <statpack> KOBOLD for free.
Those 99+ may CRACK CRYSTAL to change their heritage to Kobold.
They reset, do not decay, but are not bound. You may buy them for one another.


Temptation will be for this to become The Discussion of the war! Feel free to hit the forums, but our realtalk will be via a post mortem thread that I'll post when we're ready. That's where we can talk details, mistakes, victories, etc. Especially ideas for the future.

PS. Honors lines will be on their way.
