Our City Name Poll has concluded and we now have a name for our new city.

We have introduced 3 new chat channels which are not ranged channels but are global channels. One of these new channels is a universal channel. This means it doesn’t matter if your friends are on TAW and you are in the Creative World or the Lobby, you can still chat to them. Details on the new channels below.

• [Faction Channel] Global – Same World Only (Alias: fc)
  This is a private global channel shared between you and your Faction mates. All players who are in a Faction have access to this channel. No cooldowns.
• [World Channel] Global – Same World Only (Alias: wc)
  A global channel accessible to all players that can only be heard by others on the same world. Useful for making announcements, asking a question, making a trade offer, and other things of that nature.  180 second cooldown.
• [Ancient Worlds Channel] Universal – All Worlds (Alias: taw)
  This is a Universal channel that is accessible to TAW Members and acts as a new form of chat that reaches all worlds. No cooldown. Note: This is a private channel and can only be heard by TAW Members & Staff

Ancient Stories are true Roleplaying Events that have taken place on TAW and we have documented them for all to enjoy! This week we have 2 new stories to tell.

 

It was discovered that a bloodthirsty killer was living right under the noses of the Citizens of Voyager’s Wharf. The Killer, Mrtrustme, was ruthless in his serial killing of many innocents of the new city. Nobody suspected anything could have been wrong in the quaint port town. But sometimes evil can lurk in the dark corners of the most unexpected places..

A mysterious portal opened up nearby the Freelancer Fort. A large group of well geared TAWers took the main road from Euloria to Freelancer Fort to investigate.

What they found was a dimensional portal with a strange mix between nether & aether spewing out a variety of mob types. Enderman, Endermites, Witches, Summoners, and Blazes poured from the gates and advanced towards Freelancer Fort. As the skies darkened the danger grew and the corruption spread further and faster.

Just as the situation grew further out of control, the heavens were said to have cracked open with a flash of light, and a being glowing with light descended, relighting the landscape below and smiting all evil mobs that were crawling the landscape. The corruption was purified, and a voice was heard. The Mortals below gathered to hear the words.

Thank you everyone for visiting!
We hope to see you soon when you Enter The Ancient Worlds
