Issue 7 - "Destiny Manifest"
Featured Zone: Grandville
Levels: 40-50
Gameplay: PvE (Player vs. Environment)
Available: Coming Soon
Cost: Free for all Active Subscribers
Short Description:
A vertical zone, Grandville contains Spider City, the capital of Arachnos(tm), where players encounter mutated Arachnoids and a huge new cast of characters including Lord Recluse(tm) himself!
Extended Description
Rising from the gritty streets, slate grey buildings ascend into the sky, blotting out the sun and driving Grandville into the blackness of perpetual night. Among the shadows, the city is a dense jungle of skyscrapers linked together by walkways and bridges. Below are the castaways, infiltrators, and mutated creatures too terrible to mention. Above are the less wild but more cunning hunters, like spiders waiting to pounce.
Because it is so small, rather than grow outward, the island was forced to build upward, leaving those with the least power cast-off at the lowest levels of the city's strata. Already fortress like, when Lord Recluse took over the region he chose Grandville as the location for his capital and built himself a massive watchtower complex called the WEB. Now Recluse's citadel soars above this stratified city, the pinnacle atop a ladder of power.
Passing through the streets of Grandville it is possible to catch an occasional glimpse into the Gutters below. Through imperfect junctions, missing grates, and open sewage pits, a vertigo-inducing drop plunges into the darkness of the Gutter where the dredges of Grandville lurk. Unable to effectively control the creatures hidden here, Recluse has an Arachnos Flier patrol the area, its only goal to annihilate all living things in its path.
With the completion of Grandville, Recluse has spun his web and now lays hidden, luring those he seeks to destroy, a patient hunter setting his trap for an unsuspecting prey.
We'll have more soon...
