Release 25

December 17, 2015

 * Story: More towns with story content will appear in Novia along with the dungeon of Artifice on the island of Elysium that will be the climax of the Truth Quest line.
 * Property Tax: Property ownership will now incur regular fees (unless you are using a tax free deed from a pledge). If the fees are not paid, the player will lose their claim, and their possessions (including the house and decorations) will be moved to their bank.
 * Combat: The cover system will be introduced and will modify attack and defense values when you (or your target) are behind cover.
 * Creatures: Our creature list will continue to expand with Chaos Demons and Wisps.
 * Guild Warfare: Guilds will now be able to declare war on each other.
 * Agriculture: Players will be able to start planting and harvesting as Agriculture appears in the game.
 * Player Owned Towns: We will continue to expand the number of templates.
 * Multiple Characters: Players with pledges that include additional character slots can now create and play with those additional characters. As mentioned previously, all these characters share reputation, bank, pledge rewards, add-on items, and property. Additionally, if the first character has a last name, all additional characters will have that same last name.
 * Earlier Delivery Date: Due to the Christmas holiday, R25 will be coming out one week earlier than normal releases.
