-If the character looking at the ticket is the one that named the mount they
  will see the name on the ticket.
  "You think this is the ticket for your mount, '%s'."
-Clan specific stables now use the new code that persists mount names on tickets.

-Fixed a crash bug
-Fixed another crash bug
-Continued changes to mount stables
  -Only supports 'rent' and 'offer', no longer supports 'give'.
  -Now have to use full syntax for tickets.
    offer <token> <stablemaster>
  -The name (first keyword) of a token is now used in the message when a
    stable master gives the object to a character or takes the object from a
    character.
   -A message to the character is sent about the stablemaster giving the
    token to the character which contains the sdesc of the token so the
    player immediately knows what that shop's tokens look like.
  -Changed most the 'says' by the stablemaster to 'tells'
    a) Make it clear to others in the room who the NPC is talking to.
    b) Keep the language code involved for scrambling/learning.
  -Changed the rest of the says to echos that only the PC wills see
    because they were issues of syntax or bad keywords.

-Shops will now maintain their # of coins between reboots.
  (if a merchant has 50 coins when the game reboots they will have 50 coins when the game comes back up)
-Wagons will now leave/arrive instead of sneak/walk/run/fly
-Large scale automated update to armor items based on the work lead by Shabago.    This should standardize normal armor values but also allow us to tweak things in the future without untold hours of work.  Human tweaking of values of armor items will be on going as needed.

-Shops now maintain inventory between reboots.
  -This includes their unique values such as bloodied, dyed colors, and state (damaged armor, aged food, etc...)
-There is now always a small chance to dodge.  This should help address the issue of
  hitting a false cap on weapon skills and offense.  Many thanks to Brokkr for digging through
  the math on this and providing a solution.

-Changes to allow race properties (from the SQL DB) to determine their abilities rather than so much of it
  being hard coded. This actually fixes several aspects to races that were never addressed.  Hopefully more
  of this in the future will give staff more flexibility and options in creating new and updating old races without
  requiring the intervention/assistance of a developer.

-Fixed a bug in the 'keyword' command that could reveal buried items.
-Fixed a bug in pouring vials into subdued people, vial now truly empties if the vial is wasted.
-Made pouring vials into subdued people easier after some testing.
-Fixed a bug in merchants valuing damaged armor differently when buying and selling.
-Fixed a bug in skellebain to correctly dismount characters who fall down as a result of the poison.
-Changed how sunslits work so their use is predictable by staff and verifiable by players.
  -There are now two distinct types of sunslits items, those worn on face and those worn on eyes
  -Wearing both does not double the bonus
  -The bonus now applies even when the character does not have the skill (in the past it wasn't predictable if it would or would not)
  -Wearing a face/eyes location sunslits will give a message that a bonus is being applied.
  -Assessing a face/eyes location sunslits will give a message that the item will protect the character's vision along with which location they should be worn on.
  -Updated sunslits 'eyes' items in the game so they (should be) universally wearable on eyes, es, on_belt, in_hair, about_throat (they will only give benefit when worn on eyes).

n.b. If your sunslits item (either face or eyes) do not assess as such please wish up asking to have your item replaced with a updated version that has the correct values set on it.

> assess mask
You assess a staff sun mask...
...it is primarily made of wood.
...can be worn on the head.
...can be worn on the face.
...will protect your vision when worn on your face.
...it is very light.

> wear mask head
You place your staff sun mask on your head.

> rem mask
You stop using your staff sun mask.

> wear mask face
You fasten your staff sun mask across your face.
Wearing a staff sun mask protects your vision in a storm.



> assess sunslits
You assess a pair of staff sunslits...
...it is primarily made of wood.
...can be worn in one's hair.
...can be worn on the eyes.
...looks like it will fit you.
...will protect your vision when worn over your eyes.
...it is very light.

> wear sunslits hair
You put your pair of staff sunslits in your hair.

> rem sunslits
You stop using your pair of staff sunslits.

> wear sunslits eyes
You fit your pair of staff sunslits over your eyes.
Covering your eyes with a pair of staff sunslits protects them from harsh weather.

http://www.armageddon.org/help/view/Nilazi

Two new Drovian subclasses have been added and are now available for play.

A Nilaz subclass was added awhile ago, but was never officially announced.  So consider this that announcement, if you haven't noticed it hanging around for the last few months.

Much like the changes to the other four elemental subclasses, the re-appearance of Drovian and Nilazi elementalists can be taken IC.
