=== December 2010 Envoy Reports ===

o New skill in Glamours - LightSpray.

o PsychicPush (Psionics) will give the target balance loss if they
get moved.

o New skill in Harmony - HighChant.

o Beastmastery Jumping has had its beast balance reduced.

o Balestone (Harmonics) will scale down damage with multiple
targets.

o Timequake (Aeonics) now has a targetted version.

o Torturesong (Necroscream) will scale bleeding with plague
afflictions.

o Sweetfount (Aquamancy) has been dropped to 0p.

o Forcefield (Telekinesis) will no longer receive help in damage
mitigation from SuperEgo, artifacts, or trade items.

o SuperEgo (Influence) no longer affects casting ego costs.

o Nymphs will no longer pacify madflies.

o Special types of movement will not be interrupted by
Rainbowclouds.

=== Fixes ===

o QUIT will no longer accept numeric input.

o The Order power that controls deeds is now Steward, no longer
Represent.

o People who had previously held the Ascension skillset were
refunded the remaining essence cost.

o Fixed another bug that allowed Harmonics users to go into resonance
with themselves (when the target of a previous resonance crystal
would die).

o If you are meditating when you pass out due to exhaustion, or die,
the meditation will end.

o When setting manse permissions, you can use the RANK setting for
order ranks over 10 now. You can also use it for cult ranks.

o Entering or leaving the Parallax Arena was clearing a ship's
flashpoints, but will not anymore.

o Made some changes in how the new manse farms and other upgrades
appear in rooms, including more colours.

o Smoker's Pouches will only fill to 30 herbs, not indefinitely.

o Anyone can scribe action origami now, but bookbinders only need one
dose of ink per twenty characters, while everyone else uses one
per ten characters.

o Sneaky slivvens were getting into shield modules despite precautions
to prevent it. They have been properly chastened.

o Harmonics Spire will require and consume opals as intended.

o Paradigmatics Butterfly won't consume mana if you run out of power.

o Fixed an error that caused divine portals to sometimes last
indefinitely.

o The messages for Knighthood Slapknuckle will show which hand has
been hit.

o Fixed a bug that prevented raising shrines in areas that have
loyalty but aren't actually villages.

o Fixed a bug that prevented manse owners from listing room
permissions.

o There has been a change to how library books have their word counts
calculated, which should make it possible to publish books with
formulae, tables, separator lines, artistic flourishes, and other
content that isn't strictly speaking "words", without inflating the
word count. The counting method isn't perfect but it should be
pretty accurate and pretty fair.

Enjoy!

Penned by My hand on the 8th of Vestian, in the year 288 CE.
