Seasons and Turns | January 22, 2008 | |
First of all, turns are running slowly on Dwilight, apparently manually triggered by Tom at irregular times. It also appears that Dwilight will use seasons, like the Far East Island. | ||

Strict Name Enforcement is the Rule | January 15, 2008 | |
In case you thought that the Serious Medieval Atmosphere wasn't going to be very strict, then think again. Characters have already been warned for improper forms of address, and deleted for inappropriate names. While the name policy may be lax on the other islands, it will be enforced on Dwilight.

Dwilight Open (Occasionally...) | January 14, 2008 | |
Dwilight will be open for the creation of new characters, every now and then. If you're lucky enough to be one of the few who manage to catch it when it's open, then we look forward to seeing you there.

Dwilight as the new Roleplaying Island? | January 10, 2008 | |
There was a recent, very long thread on the Discussion List regarding the possibility that Dwilight will be the new, enforced roleplaying island. Tom sent the following message to the List:
It is important to point out that this does not mean that you need to send long-winded messages telling stories every time your character does something. What it means is that you need to have a good character concept, and always act within that concept. You should have in-character reasons for your character's actions, and stick with them. Tom created this wiki page to help define what he means when talks about a serious role playing island: Serious Medieval Atmosphere. If you plan on playing a character on Dwilight, this page is really required reading. | ||

More Details on How Dwilight Will Start | January 10, 2008 | |
Tom sent the following message to the Discussion List detailing quite a bit more information on how Dwilight will open. As always, if you happen to be one of the lucky few who get to start there before the rest of us, then we'd love to hear from you regarding any details you are able to reveal.

Religions being prepped for Dwilight | January 10, 2008 | |
With Dwilight comming up, alot of religion concepts have been made. Among them, the Blood Cult, based on aztec mythology, and Soken, based on far-eastern traditions, both have strong cultural flavours. Others I have seen include The Cult of Blissful Dementia and Desperatism, and I believe there are many more that have been though of, though many of these concepts lack the character support to either get started or to grow. Another notable religion would be Sanguisastroism, which, though I have yet to see any evidence indicating it has any support, is the only official religion for one of the starting realms upon which I could fall upon. | ||

Player Characters on Dwilight | January 9, 2008 | |
The first of the contest winner player accounts was spotted as having characters on Dwilight yesterday. With their characters active on Dwilight, it should (hopefully) be a short time before the island is ready for open immigration. We're all waiting (im)patiently for the chance to move there ourselves. | ||

Madina Update | December 30, 2007 | |
The original idea of Madina being a pirate realm has been debated a lot and we thought about the fact that pirate realm's are not appreciated in Battlemaster by Tom. So the pirate concept will be changed a bit having the ruling and RP style of the Dutch/British East India Company but with a sailor/pirate flavor. We are waiting for Tom's opinion on our new concept. Since he is away at the moment that is going to take some time, lets hope this is allowed...HARRR!!! For now, the Madina creators wish you all a good new year and watch the fire works ^_^ | ||

YADRC (Yet Another Dwilight Realm Concept) | December 21, 2007 | |
Bannable has started his own project to set forth a new concept for a realm he would like to try on Dwilight. Let's just call this project Dwilight: 1984, complete with the Thought Police. | ||

Schedules | December 20, 2007 | |
As people can see on The TattleMaster, both war islands are going away to make place for Dwilight, which appears will come out "early next year". While rather vague, it seems early enough to warrant people of the SWI to wait it out in no-war mode, so by all appearences it'll be out in january. So if you've got some preparatory RPs to do before Dwilight, it might be time to start having a go at them! | ||

More More Realm Ideas | December 14, 2007 | |
I noticed a day or two ago another proposed realm idea that someone is looking to start on Dwilight: Andrastaland. (Working title only...) This particular idea is for not just one realm, but a possible grouping of small barbarian-style realms. As the designer states: Sounds like an interesting concept. | ||

More Realm Ideas | December 10, 2007 | |
First, the Springdale page has been updated with some new information. Mostly some flavor/background information. Second, a couple players have come up with some rather interesting concepts for realms they want to try out on Dwilight. The first of these, and probably the most complete so far, is Chénier's The Blood Cult. The Blood Cult is based on the South American Aztec culture. You can read more about it here. (If this looks a little familiar, it's because he tried to start it on Beluaterra, but was not able to get it established, and it collapsed.) The second interesting project is Ceorl's Samurai realm, named Meiyo. This is a realm based on the Japanese Samurai culture. | ||

Realm Designs | November 2, 2007 | |
As the initial four realms are developing their RP background, their structure, and the like, I have renewed an old idea of mine, and with the help of a very active IRC channel, we have attempted to design a perfect realm: our Dwilight Project. An aztec-inspired realm based on originality, depth, and fun. For this concept to work, a minimum of three but preferred five small realms would be needed, so all those who have comments or want to join in on the idea can just pitch in, players and characters of all types are wanted. | ||
