The new and improved cathedral is now open to the public. This returns access to the catacombs that were inaccessible after the fire. Please excuse the temporary placeholder maps. But DO enjoy the substantially larger and far more authentic and impressive cathedral!

The former Scottish estate has been renovated and reopened partially to the public as the new papal palace. The entire first floor is accessible to the public, while the second floor and the rooms available for rent to upper-level clergy are inaccessible to those outside the Catholic Church.

Hello All!

The new year is the time for changes, resolutions and setting new goals and Allegory is no different! Allegory will be undergoing some changes as we progress through the coming months and one such change is our approach to plots and consent. For those who are unaware, we have @victim which implies a willingness to be effected by plots, be it injury, harm or other issues. It is @consent for larger scale involvement without staff having to check each person during each scene every time we are about to do something major during a plot. Henceforth, we ask those who are interested in deeper immersion with current and future plots to review @complicit. This is new, different definitive way of communicating with staff you consent to be complicit in current and future plots on a deeper level that may or may not have consequences (or rewards?), through the reach of a VP. We wish for those who want to be involved in plots to do so and for those who don't to have the freedom to do as they please and not feel pressured to participate! If you have questions, please feel free to @assist. With great risk comes great reward- usually!

*there is no limit to how many alts may enable @victim and @complicit so long as AoE's rules regarding alt interaction are followed.

Scarves, gloves, mittens, hats, socks, and SWEATERS have been added to one of the Christmas merchants. The colors available are neutrals. You are welcome to spend STPs for different colors, though! (30 STPs per word; we reserve the right to deny requests.)

Healers can now apply GARLIC PASTE or ALOE VERA PASTE to bandages. Doing so will create a poultice.

COMPRESSING the WOUND with the poultice treats infection similar to how maggots do.

For those who don't want to use maggots. ;)

There are now two alarm bells in the city. The bell near the fountain is to alert the City Guard and Militia to the need for assistance. The bell in the hospital is to alert healers, doctors, and nurses of the need for medical assistance.

Thank you!

PS - Don't forget @victim exists ;)
