The lost ....art?... of planewaking

Post by DarknessFallsLight »

Well being stuck on one plane sure stinks. Are we allowed to freely planewalk between Hala/Avlis/Mystara/Tairis? I know when I left Hala to go back to Avlis and sort of got stuck due to a DM event I thought it was the point where the portals were shut down for good until the outlands go live. Well after seeing some Hala peeps (no names) on Avlis I was wondering if they were stuck as well of if the portals are indeed open but only to those brave/dumb enough to try. I sure do miss my planewandering and would love to stop on by and say hi to all the peeps I know on the different servers.
Im too lazy to think of a witty signature to put here so just laugh anyway

Avlis > Rockhome [Removed]
Rockhome > Avlis [Unknown]
Glantri > Hala [Working]

You can portal to Avlis any time you like... but you can never leave... *plays Hotel California guitar solo*

Avlis > Hala [Removed]
Thats odd. I've gotten tells from 2 or 3 people in the last couple days saying "Please help me! I accidently walked through the portal in Avlis and I dont know how to get back". :?

Well you know people keep telling me the portals aren't working or whatever but I am having no problems. I just went back and forth again just entering hala again right after I write this.

Just be careful and make sure that if/when the link is cut that you are on a world you definitely don't mind being on for awhile.

choraldances in Avlis IC boards wrote:Elysian Council has approved the High Mage Council to lead in closing down of the Cyndrid's Tower portal.

-Melonius Mennallin, Moderator of the High Mage Council
  • Dear Frin Renya,

    I am commanded by the Council of Elysia to advise you that their Lordships and Ladyships hereby grant the High Mage Council of Avlis their authority to take such action as they deem necessary to close down the magical portal between Elysia and Hala, in order to safeguard the City of O'Ma and its residents.

    The High Mage Council is also granted permission to gain entry to the structure known as Cyndrid's Tower, assuming that such entry is required for this purpose. It is understood that damage to the Tower will be kept to a minimum.

    By the Order of the City of Elysia,
    *Signed*

    The Council of Elysia

    *The Great Seal of O'Ma is attatched*

    p.s. Please don't tell the Councillors how long it took for this to reach you - I forgot to post it.

    Dot'ooli,
    A'lana - Junior Council Clerk
P.S. Paaaaatience. :P

Well... you can get to Hala from Glantri, but not back, so that doesn't count... and what is the other one?

It's still there. Someone told me a long time ago it used to be the Avlis portal.

By the way, I LOVE the avatar Lir!!

I've been stuck atr portals where other characters hope back and forth.

Some characters can portal, others, like me, can't.

No idea what decides wether someone can portal or not.

Ya that happened with me and Calandra. I could walk back and forth through the portals and she couldn't get through at all, even though we were trying to go through together. Guess some of us are just more in tune with planewalking. lol lol

If people would post bug reports with the exact conditions under which they cannot portal, we might work it out and fix it one day.
