-Fixed a crashbug in some staff commands.
-Fixed a crashbug in quit command
-Fixed a bug where some character applications got in a stuck state and could not be approved/declined.
-Added to NPC logic so that some NPCs will retreat to a specific room to heal when they are injured.  Configurable on a per NPC basis by staff.
-Updated shooting bows/loading crossbows so there is a (small) chance to break them when the character is significantly stronger than the bow/crossbows pull value.  This is to encourage characters to seek out weapons that better match their character.
-Spice now decays.
  -On the ground - fastest
  -Inventory/Equipped - slower
  -In a container - slower, yet
  -In a spice specific container - slowest
  -On a logged out character - does not age
  -On an NPC merchant - does not age
-Spice items will have updated sdescs and keywords as they decay, similar to food decay.
-Fully decayed spice cannot be sold/shaved/sniffed/used with make.
-Fully decayed spice have no coded use and will 'crumble to dust' after 16 IC days.

December 10th, 2017 (Sunday)

(Nathvaan)
-Bugfix with regards to movement in a fringe case (falling, casting fly, then moving).
-It now properly removes the falling condition meaning you can move and not still fall while flying.
-Modification to the reel echoes to be inline with other combat echoes. (e.g. different echoes for
  hitting char, hit char, and people in the room).
-Applied the proper color profile to each of the above combat situations.
-Bugfix for odd behavior when targeting global items (staff tools and at least one spell).

(Nessalin)
-Fixed bug where spice items would be considered older than they actually were and block
   -being made into smokeable items.
   -being smoked
   -being shaved
-Fixed bug where spice items would be considered older than they actually were for determining
    value by NPC merchants.
-Fixed bug in how subguild options were set on accounts by staff.
-Armor/Clothing tailors
   -Will now increase their time/cost for dirty items that they are capable of cleaning.
   -Will not increase time/cost for things they cannot clean.
   -Will now charge more for silk items.
   -Separate tickets for Armor and Clothing tailor.
   -Fixed some weirdness around how the ticket was found.  Can now 'offer N.<item>' rather than being
      required to type, literally, 'offer ticket' and having the code always taking the first ticket it found.
-Armor/Clothing tailors will no longer provide a new item if the ticket is held between reboots.  In
  the past when a character had an item re-sized or repaired by an NPC and the game rebooted before
  the ticket was turned in a new item would be created rather than the original item.  This resulted
  things like armor being restored to new, rather than having dents, and clothing having stains
  that could not normally be cleaned removed.  The before/after state should be maintained even
  between reboots.
   -This should also fix the issue where the time/cost quoted when the item is offered to the tailor
    differ from when the ticket is offered to the NPC.
   -This should also fix the issue where sometimes the wrong item would be returned to the character
    turning in their ticket.
-Armor tailor bug fixed where armor that was re-sized would have the # of armor points provided
  increased/decreased proportionally.
-Fixed a few fringe bugs on staff side when dealing with item creation.

-Pipes no longer let you smoke 'rock hard' spice items.
-Pipes now give better messages when used incorrectly.
-Pipes no longer intercept 'smoke' commands meant for other items.
-Turning ethereal during combat now takes you out of combat.
-The brief command now has a 'taste' option
  -sip/taste commands always display taste messages, regardless of 'brief taste'
  -eat/drink will display taste messages if 'brief taste' is off
  -eat/drink will NOT display taste messages if 'brief taste' is on

-Fixed a bug in spice shaving with how age was determined for the piece shaved FROM.
-Fixed mistake in how sdesc was formatted for aging spice.

-Updates to NPC actions
   -NPCs will no longer pick up items that are being guarded.
   -NPCs will no longer steal from unconscious people who are guarded.
   -NPCs will the bandage skill and bandages in their inventory will try to bandage friendly characters
     (NPCs and PCs, alike) who are below 50% hit points and are not in combat.

-Added the command 'threaten'.  When Character A (raider) threatens Character B (merchant)
   ...the code gives the raider a chance to attack when the merchant performs certain actions (flee,
   wield, move, stand, mount, cast, shoot, throw, load, draw, ready (but only if fails sleight of hand
   check)).
   ...the code blocks the raider from performing certain actions (hide, sap, backstab).
-Added the skill 'threaten'.
   -Currently even those without the skill have a 35% chance to initiate combat when a character they
   are threatening performs an intercepted action.
   -Currently there is no way to increase the skill.  The skill is in the play-test phase so we'd rather
     people not focus on improving the skill.
   -Currently no guild/subguild has the skill.  This is likely to change in the next few days.
-More details about syntax can be found here https://www.armageddon.org/help/view/Threaten

-Undressed PC races will now have 'naked' added to their sdesc.  Undressed is when your character is not
  wearing something on locations LEGS, PELVIS, ABOUT, or a BODY LONG item
  (like a dress, which is worn on body, but covers legs).
-NPC Combat fixed.  NPCs will go back to wielding/drawing weapons, kicking, bashing,
  backstabbing, sapping.

-Staff now have more granular control over how skill trees work for guilds/subguilds.  Namely the value
  at which skills branch can be set manually rather than being a value slightly below max.  This will allow
  some skills to branch early even though they have a relatively high maximum value.

-Quality of life improvements to staff commands.

(Nessalin)
-Fixed a crash bug in drink/sip commands.
-Fixed a bug in the steal code where using pre () and post [] emotes would make the command unable to find the target object in the room.
-Fixed a bug in dynamic keywords on items (bloodied, dusty, etc...) where they could not be used with '.'.
  ex. Such as 'a bloodied shirt' count not be picked up with 'get bloodied.short'.  It can, now.
-Added new material types to help builders better flesh out the game.
-Cure items can now be analyzed to determine what types of herbs went into making them (provided the character has the skill to make that cure)
-Taste messages for herbs slightly modified to more closely match how they are described in the analyze command.

-Fix to how objects are displayed in some situations.  It now should display the correct object description.

-The pour command can now be used to pour liquids into the mouths of unconscious, paralyzed, and subdued
  characters.  This feature is a result of seeing players attempt it in the game and not having it work the way vials do.
-The save command will now give a warning if it is provided with arguments while still saving the player's character.
  This is a result of seeing players type things such as 'save board' and 'save room' under the impression the command
  does anything except save their character.
-Fixed a crashbug in a staff command
-Fixed a bug where it was possible to enter the game with 0 stun while still conscious.
-May have fixed a bug with tailor cost estimates.
-Fixed a bug in messages sent when shooting a crossbow while holding an item in secondary hand.

(Nathvaan)

-Fixed a minor spelling error with regards to notes/illustrations.
-Updated messages and some bugs with regard to karma spending/regeneration.
