Story

Moons edge is a farming community located off the Olbin Pass near Icemule Trace. The area is represented by Marquis Barlan Kane.

In 5122, Moons edge, and its immediate vicinity, was stricken by an unknown illness.

The ancestors of Barlan Kane, the current Marquis of Moons edge, were minor local lords who ruled over territory that once included Briarmoon Cove. As Briarmoon surged in wealth, power, and popularity, their line faded and their town became a bit of a shambolic backwater. Zeban used an ancient gigas tablet to create new undead under his command. He was trying to craft the perfect undead body for himself. In doing so, he created bloodsucking strigoi from the half-krolvin who lived along the Crawling Shore. For reasons unknown, the Marquis of Moons edge became obsessed with eternal life. After his scouts found one of these undead, he had it brought back to town and experimented upon by his conjurers and somehow it allowed him to turn him and his aristocrats into vampires.

Behind the Scenes

An informational recap from Opalina's perspective can be found at Exploration of Moonsedge.

The Castle area was built as a level 100-107 focused expansion and is an Ascension level area.

The vampires are obviously his favored aristocrats. Ghasts are the commonfolk who did not have enchanted strigoi blood to help guide their transformation into undead.

Death knights and their dreadsteeds are Barlan's guards.

Area Mechanics

Dread

After 5 stacks of Creeping Dread, you'll start accumulating stacks of Crushing Dread. Crushing Dread stacks are -5AS / -3CS.

Spell sever

Spell sever is a balancing mechanic for hunting areas to manage the amount of outside spells a character can wear in the affected areas. Spell sever will strip any beneficial spells that a character does not know over a maximum allowed limit per area. The order in which the spells are stripped is in random order.

Spells in the Arcane circle(such as Spirit Guard (1712)) are not removed or counted by Spell sever.
