💀 What better way to analyze the data of spooky event than with a proper post-mortem? The response and participation exceeded our expectations, and we're grateful to everyone who joined us in Adrullan. We were able to glean some incredibly helpful performance data. Although we were incredibly encouraged by our end of the night festivities with over 500 players present in a small region, we now believe we can shatter those records and that's all thanks to your efforts!

Whispers from Beyond
The Whispers of Grixius drew thousands to face their fears in Adrullan. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the spooky season, players showed a strong affinity for the darker arts - Shadow-Knights and Necromancers proved particularly popular among those brave enough to answer the call.
While many dipped their toes into the haunted waters, thousands committed to longer haunting sessions, with over 3,800 characters manifesting for more than 2 hours. Some particularly dedicated spirits remained to terrorize Adrullan for over 40 hours!
Ending the night with fireworks, fears, and friends in Moorhaven Crossings was the perfect finale for this chapter in EverCraft Online's story.
Now that the whispers have dissipated, we once again can return to work. Our team is deep in development on the cheery rolling hills of the Ardent Vale, where we'll meet the Halflings of Willowbrook. Meanwhile, another, more enigmatic city rises in the south. Two dungeons have broken ground, one quite literally! A revamp and expansion of hair and customization for all races is underway, alongside tons of class work implementing many discoveries from the test. And we continue our march from Harvest Reach, down eventually to the Fellwood Plains and the Coalition's activities there that we can't wait for you to discover.
There's a ton of work to do, but we are so grateful to our community and energized by everyone. Stay tuned for flash tests, stress tests, and future announcements. Spread the word and share your experience in our alpha. We're working hard to deliver an experience true to the tenets we cherish and are so lucky to get to share it with you.
The Spirit Lives On
Like any proper undead, this test refuses to stay buried. The insights gained will rise again in future iterations of EverCraft Online. Until then, may your fears fuel your courage, and may Grixius's whispers remind you of the adventures yet to come...
Thank you to all who dared to face their fears in Adrullan. Your courage in the face of the unknown continues to shape our realm!
