After traveling the RuneRebels world filling in his various quest scrolls, Bill decided that it was time he take on a challenge that he had set aside long ago. He returned to RuneRebel's headquarters and ventured deep into parts of the the Quest library that he hadn't visited in years. "Where is that damn scroll..." Bill muttered to himself as he glanced over the scrolls. "Ah ha, here is it"... he said as he slowly removed the tattered scroll from the shelf. To be continued...

Over in the experiments room, Matt was conducting intensive experiments on doing the same thing over and over. "Bro what exactly are you doing?" asked Onur as he stumbled into the room holding a Wizards mind bomb. "I'm doing science sir!" replied Matt. "I've found that after I do these actions so many times, random things start to happen!" continued Matt. "Thats nuts" replied Onur as he struggled to walk out of the room. "I'm gonna go find some formulas in the brewery real quick" finished Onur as he finally made his way through the door.

Meanwhile at the headquarters of the bank of RuneRebels, Zion was performing an audit of the master item list that hadn't been looked at in years. "No no no, this is all wrong!" he exclaimed as he frantically made edits to the list. "Whats wrong with the list?" asked one of the bankers in training. "There are a ton of items on here that are cleared for transfer between players, when such conducts should be illegal!" replied Zion as he intensely scribbled more notes on the list. "Oh, I see..." mumbled the banker as he backed out of the room.

Back at the mainlands Wandi, a new citizen of RuneRebels, was causing Onur's "not very interesting" bug detector to go off like the Sheepdog at Falador farm when fed a fresh cut of beef. Onur's detector hadn't gone off this much since the great well crisis of the first age. He teleported over to see what was going on and was horrified by Wandi's discoveries; there were doors, shelves, crates, and bookcases, and even a well, that were all not very interesting to look it. Thankfully, Wandi was prepared with the skills to make the aforementioned objects much less uninteresting!

Hello players! We apologize about the delay again for this update; unfortunately the day when we planned to launch Ryan lost power due to a blizzard, and then his basement (where his office is) proceeded to flood due to the lack of power for the sump pump and all of the water from the melting snow. Nonetheless, we are happy to finally make this update live! We have a TON of bug fixes crammed into this update, and lots of small fixes and polish on many areas of the game, such as fixing longstanding broken objects in many of the cities.

We are also spicing up the currently lackluster list of available random events, and we hope that this makes your playing experience during the grind a bit more fun! We have even more random events in development and can't wait to bring them all to you.

We also of course have more quest content in development, so stay tuned for updates on that! Additionally, we would like to welcome some new (and old!) additions to the team! Cam (Black) has returned to us as developer from the past, Zion (Brownay) is joining us as a new developer, and Wandi (Rapunzel) is joining us as a bug report master!




Finally, we are excited to pre-announce a double XP event on Saturday December 12th and Sunday December 13th! We are pre-announcing this so that players have time to prepare for the event. As usual, players will have 10 hours of double XP available to them per day. We hope you enjoy it!

- The RuneRebels Dev Team
