The darkness between Elysion's floating islands thickened as the Nedom Wolven and its forces approached. The screams of countless souls being devoured echoed into the night while the prayers remained unheard. The Dreamer had turned its back on Elysion, the Cynos were gone, but left was their power bestowed to the Dreamlords in a final attempt to stop the Nedom Wolven from devouring Elysion once and for all.

The land shook violently as the Dreamlords gathered to unleash a powerful spell taught by the Cynos. Guided by their new powers, they started to chant. Gnosis siphoned from the dissolving land around them. Even the Dreamlords themselves seemed to dissolve into gnosis and gather in a massive bolt of energy. Like a beacon of hope it shone through the darkness, igniting the spirit of survivors all across Elysion's remaining shards. Out of despair and into the fire, the inhabitants of Elysion took arms against the forces of the devourer.

Surprised by this sudden display of power the Nedom Wolven set course towards the massive bolt of energy, determined to stop the futile attempt at saving Elysion. Only the strongest Dreamlords were yet to be dissolved and join the force of reckoning. The Wolven was upon them, devouring Dreamlord after Dreamlord. Unable to fight back they had no choice but to be devoured while chanting the final words of the spell. The bolt of energy started to rise, and with it the remaining Dreamlords. The land below turned entirely into gnosis and as the Nedom Wolven was about to devour yet another Dreamlord the power was unleashed. A ray of pure gnosis shot through the sky followed by a massive explosion that dissolved everything in it's path. The Nedom Wolven howled in agony and frustration as it was driven away by the powerful spell. Then there was silence and darkness.

Until the bolt of gnosis rose above Elysion as a sun, spreading life and light to the few remaining broken shards of a world. The Cynos were gone, the Dreamlords were gone, the Nedom Wolven driven away, but the Dreamer had noticed the new dawn over Elysion...

We would like to thank all you players of Dreamlords for your love and devotion to this game. Also a huge thanks to our Moderators who kept peace on the game server. Some day we will meet again, until then farewell and best of luck in life.

Dreamlords: Resurrection ended on September 29th.

Those that can listen to the wakes and vibrations of the Primordial Ocean have sensed it... but it does not take much wisdom to understand that the events that have unfolded so far, with increased presence of monsters and death, are pointing towards a dark future.

The skies are being tainted with the fires of war, and the ground will soon be decorated with a crimson carpet of corpses. And among them, scattered lone survivors, crying in despair, trembling into the core of their brittle bones at the sight of a landscape of slaughtered loved ones, of grotesque abominations slowly feasting on the dead...

...and at the sight of what is coming...

The end starts here. The Nightmares have finally reached a point where they can start mass breeding one of their most powerful beings; the Nightmare Seeder. Armies of Nightmare Seeders and their minions are approaching through the Primordial Ocean and through portals leading to their unforgiving domain. They are here to make the final preparations, to devour what little left is needed for them to be able to call upon the bringer of ultimate destruction and fear – the Nedom Wolven, the Cynos of ultimate Destruction, the devourer of worlds.


During the last days of the Era, you will be able to take on eight quests on your Patria of varying difficulty, from a level of 35 up to 59. Upon completing one of these quests, you have the chance to obtain one of the items from the Corruptor (Dreamlord gear, level 3) set, or a wealth in dissolvable items. Those of you who manage to finish the final and most difficult of these quests will be awarded the Corruptor's Key of Souls, a weapon which is unique for that particular quest. The gear can be traded unless they are soulbound, and cannot be found anywhere else.

The event and Dreamlords: Resurrection will end on September 29th, 10:00 server time.

"Eyes are lurking in the thickening darkness of sky between our islands, they are watching, waiting, biding their time. The Nedom Wolven will soon be upon us and our need of the Cynos grow stronger for every day. Yet no prayer has been answered for weeks. Where are the Cynos? Will they aid us in our time of need or have they already faced the sharp fangs of the Nedom?"


The end of Dreamlords is coming closer. September 29th is the day when this Era and Dreamlords go down. Ladders and rankings will stay on the website (www.dreamlords.com) for a period of time after this date. The server will shut down at 10:00 server time.

So, since the world will soon crumble, I will take this opportunity to show some of the artwork that never really made it into the game, together with some descriptions.

Asynja

Ah, this one. Asynja has been a part of the Dreamlords universe for a long time, yet she has never shown herself. She had her own event at one point, but you never got the chance to fight her. We really wanted that to happen though, but it seems like I could never get her design down. She started out like some bimbo-amazon and gradually transformed into something more demon-like.

She was something of a broken lady, having resurrected herself with some minor bits missing, like her sanity. While she was not specifically after the Dreamlords, she would frenzied attack anything that stood in her way.

Asynjans

These strange beings was supposed to be Asynja's "loyal" army. In actuality they were her long dead kinsmen, resurrected but disfigured and quite as mad as their leader.

They also started out as some sort of goth-bimbos and gradually transformed into something more nasty with horns and scar-tissue covering their bodies.

Ghunan

Good old Ghunan. Not many players knew who this fellow was, and it is understandable, as his role in the universe diminished after the first Dreamlords game. He has always been around though and is both scheming and devious. It was he who "helped" the Nihilim to destroy Elysion long ago.

There was a nice duality with Ghunan as he was not inherently evil, he just tried to do what he thought was right for Elysion, but harmed many in the process, including the aforementioned Asynja.

I had the wish that the players would be able to fight a physical representation of this guy, maybe at the end of era-event or similar, but we never had the time to actually realize it.

Librarian & Collector

This old hag and her nervous sidekick was supposed to scavenge your patria during an event where they would go look for scattered pages from a forbidden book, fighting you in the process.

The Librarian was a wonderful character with a large book on her back, which she would pause and read sometimes.

My favourite of these two though is her nervous side-kick, The Collector. He was supposed to be carrying the lost pages they found, and is acting all wary and scared, constantly looking around him for threats.

The event never got finished and so, the models were never used.

Undead Thul

These were designed as a part in bringing dungeons as a map-type into Dreamlords. The idea was that the player would find the old burial-tomb of an old Covenant Lord that somehow had been awoken into undeath.

When he was buried, the bones of the most fierce Thul that the Lord had slain was buried with him. As the undead Covenant Lord wants some protection in his tomb, he has raised them from the dead, to serve him in his dark halls. Forcing them to wield Covenant weaponry and armor was a cruel joke from his side.

---

Oh, you are still here? Great!

I will take this opportunity to thank all the great people I´ve met and worked with on Dreamlords.

Thank you, all you dedicated players, you made us go as far as we could :-)

I have truly learnt a lot, had great fun, and while things have been tough sometimes, it was all worth it.

/Daniel Ribera Olsen, Lead Artist at Lockpick Entertainment

No one is really sure what has happened to the Flesh Sacs that roamed the Patrias. It is clear that many of them were slain by the courageous inhabitants of Elysion, but all the killing in the world could not seem to quell the stream of the foul couriers. Some theorize that enough of them finally reached their destinations at last, and that whatever dark beings were granted their putrid innards have grown in strength considerably. At any rate, it is certain that things are going to get tougher, and that darkness is coming.


The Flesh Sac's Rancid Remains, as well as any formulas related to this event, will persist through Era restarts. The powerful items they create, however, will not.

Sheit, the Cynos of Nightmares, has sent out his servants with deliveries of resources and weapons to monsters and beasts that are willing to make the life of the Dreamlords and their people difficult.

These servants, simply called Flesh Sacs, are roaming the Patrias. They are living cargo containers, with the only goal in life to carry and defend their contents until they reach their destination, upon which they burst open and die.

If you are lucky enough to see one, and foolish enough to take it on, you might end up with its valuable contents yourself... or your face full of its corrosive innards.

The Flesh Sac monsters that can be found on your Patria can sometimes drop rare formulas that allow you to craft items of nightmarish powers by using the very remains of the slain beasts. For those who do not want to hope for the formulas to drop there is also the option to purchase them in the Altar of Cynos, together with some new and exciting Dreamlord gear! However, you will still need to gather the ingredients to the formulas the old fashioned way.

Be adviced however, that the Flesh Sacs will not stick around forever.

The Flesh Sac's Rancid Remains, as well as any formulas related to this event, will persist through Era restarts. The powerful items they create, however, will not.

Event ends on September 14th, 10:00 server time.

Deira, the Cynos of Life, and the ancient warlord Ghunan has momentarily made a pact and will grant every Dreamlord with their blessings during the Week of the Warrior. The Blessing of Deira helps you bring back fallen troops to life (PvP only, increases your Field Medical Points), and the Blessing of Ghunan, that magically causes your weapons and gear to retain their durability when fighting other Dreamlords on the foreign (PvP) islands. Together, Ghunan and Deira bless the Dreamlords with the gift of Celestial War Surge, giving the Dreamlords increased soul shard rewards when battling each other.


The Fight is on!
We are happy to announce Week of the Warrior in Dreamlords Resurrection. This time around it will be for a full week starting Monday Aug 29th at 10.00 am (server time).

Not only will the player have much more Medical Points to resurrect their fallen brethren after a PVP fight, the durability of weapons used in PVP will retain their durability. This is not all, this Era we offer the players inscreased soul shard rewards from PVP battles.

At the end of the event, we will grant great Dreamlord Gear prizes to the 1st through 10th place holders of the Battle Rating ladder, as well as additional prizes to lucky winners randomly selected from groups of the Battle Rating ladder. The higher up on the ladder you are, the greater the chance is that you will win something. 

As for the Tribute Award, the higher Battle Rating you have, the higher the prize will be, even though the Battle Rating doesn’t affect the chance of winning the tribute awards.


The Prizes
Prestigious and valuable rewards await those brave and skilled enough to claim them! Prizes will be based upon the Battle rating ladder when the event ends at 10.00 am (server time) Monday Sep 5th.

Deira, the Cynos of Life, and the ancient warlord Ghunan are discussing terms of a pact to benefit Dreamlords that are waging war.

Week of the Warrior will begin on Monday, August 29th 10:00 server time. The event span over a full week of glorious battles. During this event all players that engage in player versus player combat (PvP) will have a chance of winning both Tribute and Dreamlord gear.

The Cynos grow weaker every time Cael winds back time, they are merely shadows of the past. Without love and attention from the Dreamer the world, people and Cynos are withering, dissolving into gnosis. Elysion must regain some attention of the dreamer, or everything will be lost...


This is the last Era of Dreamlords: Resurrection, players will experience more tribute income from the game and no activity points to limit trading.
