Worlds of Rhun has merged with Nosgoth PW - Bringing the Area Count to 592, after instanced generated areas, the count is around 700.
Vampire Features from both Nosgoth & Worlds of Rhun have been merged.
Worlds of Rhun vampire features preserved -
Clan & Bloodline system.
Create a New Vampire character from scratch, and you become a pure blood vampire, you can sire people into your bloodline, and have them sire others into your bloodline. Pass on the disease, and make your bloodline the dominant one in all of Rhuniverse.
All Kills by vampires, contribute to the Clan's Blood Pool, points which can then be spent on gaining Bloodline wide enhancements.
eg - Bonus to skills, ability scores, or bonus feats for the whole clan.
eg - If your clan/bloodline are developed towards agility, perhaps you wish to have +5 dexterity (if you have enough bloodpoints).
If you make the purchase, then everyone in your bloodline, and those who join it, gain +5 dexterity.
Nosgoth Vampire Features -
Glyph Network throughout the City of Meridian.
Glyph magic is deadly to vampires, and is used to power the ward-gates throughout the city. Wardgates are green glowing energy barriers that repell vampires.
Whisper System -
Finally the Whisper Channel in Chat actually has a purpose.
Use it to send telepathic communication to other vampires.
Senses and Examine area commands.
+Sense macro will highlight with a visual cue, any points of interest - mostly used in Nosgoth.
+Examine macro will interact with hidden objects, this allows placeables to be usable, without requiring them to be 'usable' and glow when tab is used.
Nosgoth and Rhun are joint together via the Stargate System.
Join the game, explore, find the Stargate in Etum, and be able to visit Nosgoth, an entirely separate world, now part of the Rhuniverse.
