Celestia Artwork Part 5

Here's the latest installment of the Celestia Artwork. Robot Boy has been revealed. We're getting so close to the final piece. I'm sure you can picture what all of them look like by now. I know I can. It's weird that there aren't any Shadow Weavers in the background though. Maybe just not yet. I mean, they are going to be the big villain in Celestia right? Hmm... Maybe more theorycrafting is required. Who knows.

And of course according to Friendly's MS-Celestia (What will be the abbreviation? Leave a comment with your guess) comparison, Robot Boy will be a... oh right, he and Shark Kid weren't in the comparison. So, I think he'll be an NPC because he doesn't look mean, actually kind of nice. Let me know what you guys think in the comments. ;D

Tomorrow I am going to post a few pictures that Victoira Spiritblossom kindly sent me of two glitches. (Yay we can bring out the Glitch Dog again!) And after I get a camera and pc mic, I'll be able to do an instructional video on how to do both, and maybe some vlogs like Ditto.

Happy Gaming

Celestia Prequests Part 2: Theorycrafting

"Hold on a second, Blaze! You mean to tell us there's even more involved in that questline?"

No, don't worry. What's a good spoiler without some theorycrafting from your favorite blogger right? Of course, Friendly hasn't done much of it yet, so second favorite will have to do. Ok fine, third.

I just want to talk about where I believe we will have to go to fight Shadow Weavers to retrieve parts of the decoder. Now, I know that almost all of you have seen an area in the game and asked yourselves (or Friendly as the case may be) "Hey, self / Friendly, what is the point of that place?" Well, that's mainly what I'm here to talk about.

For Wizard City, I believe that the Shadow Weaver will be located behind the Death gates in the Haunted Cave.

I know what you're thinking. "Blaze, that's obviously for a Death Wizard spell quest." WRONG! It's not. Friendly did a post about it somewhere, but I don't really wanna go looking for it. (Feel free to if you want.) If you just don't want to agree here then it's probably in the mysterious empty house in Olde Town

You know, it's probably not because I've been told that if you go up on the ledge near the attic window, you can see Malistaire inside.

For the Krokotopia Shadow Weaver, I have found a few places that it could be. For example, behind the wall of bricks in the Pyramid of The Sun. (Yes, fellow sorcerers, that is Priya, the dryad, helping train a theurgist. I know, Priya loves us more. ;D)

Or maybe through one of the tunnels we haven't been able to explore.

If we can find a way down to it of course.

Or maybe it's in the Temple of Storms, behind those bricks.

Or through that tunnel.

And has anyone noticed that island up there?

Maybe it's up there, watching from above. (Creepy, I know.)

And if it's not up there, maybe it'll be behind that door on the side of the Oasis Library.

Yeah Zan'ne is definitely hiding it from us. Never trust an orange mander, I guess.

Or maybe through the tunnel on the back of the minigame pyramid.

For Marleybone, I believe it will be inside Barkingham Palace.

"Hey Blaze, isn't there some sort of Marleybone side quest from one of those guards that has you go in the palace?" WRONG! (again.) There isn't. "Then why would they make it." -.- For the Shadow Weaver. "Oh..."

For the Mooshu Shadow Weaver, I'm not sure at all. I honestly have NO idea whatsoever. If you guys have any idea of where it might appear. Let me know down in the comments.

For the Dragonspyre Shadow Weaver, I am almost positive it will be behind the door behind the knowledge crystal in the Plaza of Conquests.

Ok, I hope that gave you a good idea of where you'll have to be going on your next journey throughout the Spiral. (Like the obsidian chests... x shudder x)

Btw, if you started up W101 to try and find Malistaire, you get +30 Brownie Points! You probably won't find him though. He's really busy battling those bored grandmasters. ;D

Note: The pictures of Malistaire in Olde Town, The Krokotopia Library, and the Krokotopia Minigame Pyramid ARE edited by yours truly. I apologize for any confusion. I guess I really AM a great edit-er. Sorry for the disappointment. I just really love editing W101 pictures. ;D

Celestia Prequests

Ok guys. I know I'm a little late with this compared to the other bloggers, (but that's why you love me right?) Anyway, let me just get to the insider info right? Well, here's KI's little synopsis of what the prequest line will be like:

"After attaining the rank of Grand Master and defeating Malistaire, you are summoned to Ravenwood by Halston Balestrom, who explains that he has received a cryptic message on a strange device, the Resonating Omni-Audio-Graph.

Balestrom asks for help decoding the message and sends you to Krokotopia to find an ancient artifact that will help in the translation. Upon arrival, you discover that the item you need has been stolen, broken apart and scattered throughout the Spiral by a group of mysterious villains.

It's up to you to travel across the Spiral and defeat a cadre of villains to get the pieces Balestrom requires. Gradually, you learn more about these mysterious enemies, discovering that they are the Shadow Weavers, a secret order of Wizards with sinister plans.

Upon successfully decoding Balestrom's mysterious message, you learn that it originates from a long-lost Marleybonian survey team from the Spiral Geographic Society, a league of explorers who set out long ago to find the lost world of Celestia. According to the message, the explorers believe they have stumbled upon an important discovery, but they are trapped and in great danger!

With this new information, Balestrom concludes that the Shadow Weavers are after the ancient Spiral Key to Celestia, held in the Spiral Geographic Society archives. He asks you to travel to the Society headquarters and retrieve the Spiral Key. However, upon arrival in Marleybone, you discover that this simple errand will become a daunting trial, requiring you to overcome a squadron of Shadow Weavers and other powerful forces eager to keep Celestia lost and its secrets unknown.

After defeating the final enemy, you find a blackened, broken Spiral Key... now you must discover whether it is shattered forever, or if it can be remade to function again!"

That's quoted from Willowdreamer over at the Central. She was kind enough to type up the article from Becketts magazine. And of course KI wouldn't leave us hanging without a few insider pictures right?

Check them out!

I believe they are the Shadow Weavers. (Unless the Celestians are evil bugs. O. o) I'm not sure which one will be the Head Weaver, as they are both pretty menacing looking. Wish us luck, young wizards!

As more information comes out (from the test realm I assume, unless Friendly can get some more info from Greyrose.) I will be sure to keep you updated.
