Category:The Inquisitor

The Inquisitor is a brand new event premiering in 2026. It revolves around the Inquisitor herself, Luari Maivaldius, an enigmatic figure of immense power from a different plane of existence called Nyessem. It is an episodic event that introduces a new plane, new games, new player roleplay systems, a new progression system, and new storyline threads that will extend into Elanthia beyond the event itself.

June 2026 features a prologue for the pay event that includes a free preview week of access, where you can begin learning about the Inquisitor and get a taste for what Nyessem has to offer. The Inquisitor is scheduled to return in late 2026 with its first full chapter.

Activities

MANA TRAWLING

A quick and fun diversion, Mana Trawling is a creation of Lady Maivaldius!  Test your luck and skill as you "fish" with ethereal energy.  Win some aevit for your trouble, or perhaps a greater prize awaits for the truly fortunate!  To play, go through the pale violet stone arch located upon the Nyessem Promenade.  Once you're in the minigame's Indigo Pools area, simply WAGGLE at a nearby pool to begin!  Chat with the tall and pale lanky girl by the pools to learn more.  

One aevarch entry is required, granting 10 chances to fish.  The game lasts until entries are used up.

MENAGERIE MADNESS

Lady Maivaldius's Menagerie Magister has collected a host of dangerous hostile creatures from Elanthia, and even a few from Nyessem!  To help capture the essences of these creatures, speak to the Magister in the Nyessem Ring Loop.

Once inside the Menagerie, you can use POINT standalone on these creatures to capture their essences for the Magister.  Or, if you possess a Collector vissi within an Arcarium (and using the indicated verb when you ANALYZE the Arcarium), you can create a collectible Grinsawl to add to your permanent collections at the same time!  Watch out for the traps and hazards within that aim to slow you down!

Free-to-play entry is available, rewarding a Chimera vissi if you win.  Paid entry is also available, costing one aevarch and rewarding 300 aevit and a Chimera vissi, win or loss.  The game lasts 10 minutes.

THE CONUNDRUM

Lady Maivaldius offers a challenge of skill and teamwork for the truly brave.  Within the Conundrum, a clockwerke creature needs to be rebuilt.  Guided by a floating, ethereal sphere, adventurers will aid in the reconstruction of this creature, dodging hazards and fighting off powerful clockwerke foes along the way.  Myriad parts are scattered across the area within the Conundrum, so pay careful attention to what you are asked to provide.  The parts are heavy, so you'll need to KICK them along the ground in the correct directions to get them where they need to go.

To participate, speak to the Arena Magister in the Testing Approach, at the north end of the event grounds.  Free-to-play entry is available, rewarding a vissi if you win.  Paid entry is also available, costing one aevarch and rewarding 300 aevit and a vissi, win or loss.

FUGUE ELANTHIANS

Lady Maivaldius sincerely apologizes for the inconvenience, but she requests your help repatriating those Elanthian testers whose minds and bodies were not up to the tasks placed before them here in Nyessem.  As you travel the event grounds, you may run across various Elanthians in a fugue state.  Simply POINT at them to make their locations known, and someone will come take care of them in due time.

Participation in this minigame is free and open to everyone.  Daily rewards are granted after the successful identification of five fugue Elanthians.

INTRODUCTORY QUEST

Arriving in Nyessem for the first time via EVENT TRANSPORT?  Be sure to type QUEST LIST and then ACCEPT the Introduction to Brayern Isle Quest.  A Nyessemian boy will hurry to your side, guiding you around the event grounds to help familiarize yourself with this strange new realm as you progress.

Participation in this quest is free and open to everyone.  A one-time reward is offered upon its first completion.
