It has arrived at last! Behold the patch notes:

- Krampus is here! Along with a very out-of-season OOC room.
- New Undersigil areas and quests (Mimi Fearthegn, Taurus Daggerknight, Morrigan, Lazuli, Serena, and Edmaster)
- New Half Outsider (Edmaster)
- Psychic Knight (Edmaster)
- New player store overhaul (Gadwin)
- New Kobold outfits, helmets, and tail (Eldwen and Taurus Daggerknight)
- New creature weapons (Eldwen, Edmaster, and Mimi Fearthegn)
- Astral Gith Ruins overhaul (Weirwood)
- New Music tracks (Mithras)
- Caught up on portrait submissions

Notes on Creature Weapons:
We have changed the creature weapon system completely. The new creature weapons have been consolidated into five types: bite, claw, slam, large bite, and large claw. They do not "advance" as you go up in level, but they are transferable. You should get one when you create a character of a race that normally gets creature weapons. You can also purchase them from the "exotic" store in the OOC room, or craft them via the normal crafting system. They are also enchantable via the normal enchanting system.

- Mortuary store updated to contain a few more useful items

- That Revolting Basement quest now gives an item reward in addition to gold
- The box of herbs no longer weighs 30+ lbs

- Zak's Corpse Collection quest now gives more gold and exp
- New quest: Welcome to the Cage
