Runes of Magic reveals new zone


Frogster, publishers of the free-to-play fantasy MMORPG Runes of Magic, has just announced the release of a brand-new adventuring zone called the Northern Janost Forest. The new zone, also known as Black Blood Forest thanks to some of its beastmen inhabitants, is previewed at Alltern8.

While the article is light on specific game details, it does detail a fair amount of background and lore information. The zone features two main plot lines, the first concerning a race of warriors known as the Leonines of Angren and the second revolving around Morrok Wallinder, a dragon envoy. The zone also features a new epic quest called The Degenerated Elves, which looks to involve players in a war between the Angren and the Jyr'na elves.

"Before the Jyr'na Elves went mad, they co-existed peacefully with the nature-loving Angren, but as they started to research forbidden magic, the Jyr'na Elves were overcome with an endless lust for power. The changes to the plants of Janost Forest affected the habitat of the Angren, and a war broke out making Dimstar Swamp their battlefield," says the article.
