IP address change
The IP address associated with avatar.outland.org changed yesterday.
If your telnet client is configured to connect with an IP address, please change it to use the hostname avatar.outland.org instead.
This will help protect against future IP address changes as once the DNS servers update the listing for avatar.outland.org to a new IP, you should automatically be connected to the new IP.

Bo'Vul's vault
Lords...
Ctibor recently had the chance to take a tour north of Bo'vul. He found it to be quite boring and the inhabitants either crazy or rude. They did hint about other wonders that Bo'vul has hidden away somewhere else. Perhaps they will be more forthcoming when you can visit them. Bo'vul will probably allow others to take a tour of the area.

Lord Builder Contest 2012
Avatar has a rich backstory full of people, places, and events that none of us have directly experienced. Up until now, we have only been able to learn this history through stories, memories, and ancient tomes. By completing this quest, you will give our players a chance to relive some of the mythic stories of Avatar's past. This quest is open to all players, staff, angels, and imms of Avatar that have experience with the lord tier.
Click READ MORE for more information about this unique opportunity to add your voice to our story.
Luckily Avatar is available for your adventure cravings most of the time.
But there's always ther chance that we have some issues (crash, hanging mud, network issues)
Usually players are the first to find out, and together we manage to fix it quickly.
However, to streamline this process we've written a short procedure to make sure detailed info reaches the IMM team as fast as possible.
Click to read what you, as Avatar player, can do to help resolve issues quickly.
And no worries, there is also an Immortal version that helps us figure things out quickly,
and most importantly, communicate this back to everyone else.
A new XP logic has been implemented that encourages grouping through a reduction in the speed at which XP gained drops along the XP curve as group size increases. The changes are still being discussed and tested. If you notice anything strange or have any questions/comments, the code changes are being discussed on the website forums. A lot of work has gone into these changes so please provide any feedback you can.
