<div {{prettydiv}}>Troubled Waters - Prime<br>
==July 2014==
Sailing the Northern Waves of the Great Western Sea, krolvin warships raid the Elanthian coastline in the name of the Slavers Guild. The price for able men, women, and children keeps the Krol in business, as the slavery trade from Glaoveln to the Southern Waves of the Great Western Sea runs rampant. Brave volunteers are called upon to board a chartered schooner and join a rescue mission to save those taken captive. The schooners sail out to known slave-trading routes to intercept krolvin ships, which volunteers board to meet the enemy head on. Because of the high volume of krolvin traffic on the trade routes, schooner captains dare not stay longer than two hours, lest krolvin reinforces arrive and add the volunteers to their slave inventory. Up to 10 players can participate in the next GemStone IV Adventure, a small-scale quest starting at an introductory price of $14.99* that takes roughly two hours to complete. This is a combat-heavy quest, but is designed to accommodate a wide mix of professions and levels.</div>*Included custom [[siegery]] miniature at the end of the quest. This promotion ended after the first month.

==Salt-stained parchment==
Players can have up to a total of ten (10) spell preparation messages. The salt-stained parchment affects all a player's spells, but can be toggled with <span style = "font-variant: small-caps">prep phrase on/off</span>. It is also possible to switch the order of preference for preparation phrases, for example, such that a phrase unique to a specific spell is used rather than the phrase for "all spells" (such as this case). In other words, using this item will not remove the ability for anyone with other types of custom preparation phrasing to be used, assuming they presently have nine or less total. The only likely issue appears to be if one had a different custom phrase for all spells, in which case one would need to manually swap their orders to see both of them.

Troubled Waters, Rescue at Sea is a pay to play quest that began in April 2014 and is scheduled regularly. The cost is $9.99 for standard accounts. Troubled Waters introduced a new quest prize ticket system where players can accumulate tickets, or Blackscrip. In Troubled Waters teams of up to 10 characters raid a Krolvin ship to rescue prisoners, which must be escorted back to the schooner. From the website:

Troubled Waters - Prime
Sailing the Northern Waves of the Great Western Sea, krolvin warships raid the Elanthian coastline in the name of the Slavers Guild. The price for able men, women, and children keeps the Krol in business, as the slavery trade from Glaoveln to the Southern Waves of the Great Western Sea runs rampant. Brave volunteers are called upon to board a chartered schooner and join a rescue mission to save those taken captive. The schooners sail out to known slave-trading routes to intercept krolvin ships, which volunteers board to meet the enemy head on. Because of the high volume of krolvin traffic on the trade routes, schooner captains dare not stay longer than two hours, lest krolvin reinforces arrive and add the volunteers to their slave inventory. Up to 10 players can participate in the next GemStone IV Adventure, a small-scale quest starting at an introductory price of $14.99* that takes roughly two hours to complete. This is a combat-heavy quest, but is designed to accommodate a wide mix of professions and levels.

*Included custom siegery miniature at the end of the quest. This promotion ended after the first month.

To set up a private run email quests@simutronics.com.

Cost is in Blackscrip and items can be purchased in the Bait Shop in Wehnimer's Landing. Those completing the quest will typically get 50 to 150 Blackscrip. Old prize lists and items have been moved to the Troubled Waters prize list archive.
