Be proud of who you are...
This month, and every month. The Artix Entertainment community has always been made up of many different heroes. We live in different countries, believe different things, have different types of families.... but one thing has always been true. We believe that you should always be proud of who you are and the struggles you've overcome.

And this month -- when people across the world celebrate Pride Month and so many are coming together to work towards a better world -- the message is even more important. Stay true to who you are, no matter who you are, and never be afraid to show the world your true colors.

We know many of you are still stuck at home and can't celebrate like you normally would in the real world. So this weekend, head to your game menu to find a ton of new gear to help you /party in our world.

• Pastel and Rainbow Pride Parade outfits
  
• Rainbow Splash! Pride Street Wear
  
• Wings of Pride, Love, and more
  
• and more

#WorldGoals: Equality. Respect. Kindness for all.
Today is Juneteenth. Some of you might be asking... "What's that?" Many of you already know. In case you don't, though... this is the best day to drop some knowledge on you.

Juneteenth celebrates the emancipation of slaves in the United States. Most states in the US celebrate this on June 19th (hence the name) but in several areas around the country the celebrations can stretch across several days of parades, parties, lectures, and exhibitions celebrating African-American culture.

Members of our player community have every color skin, practice every religion, and come from nearly every country around the world. It has always been important to us to represent and promote equality, unity, kindness, and the spirit of playing together.

I hope you'll join us in continuing to move towards a better world, where all heroes can work alongside each other as we direct our combined energy, talent, and skill towards goals that will take us all further and higher.

Shadowrealm Evolution
The ShadowRealm expands... and the Hollowborn appear
In 2012, the heroes of Lore first entered the Shadow Realm. There, they faced the Beast Master and his menagerie of twisted, troubled creatures. Then, in 2013, experienced heroes were allowed to explore a new section of the realm. There, they met a … strange-looking… version of the Twilly we know and love, who sent them to face a rogue Shadow Lord.

This weekend, level 45+ heroes can log in and battle through an updated Shadow Realm with new art, new areas, and new NPCs!* Find the shadowy Mysterious Figure to begin your adventure.

*Fans of the original map art and layout can /join shadowrealmpast and /shadowlordpast

Introducting... the Hollowborn Faction
A new faction of warriors (or creatures?... or both?!) has appeared among the shadows of that dark realm. Known only as the Hollowborn, they appear to be lead by man named Lae. We do not know much about him... Yet. This weekend, find Kaselbel in the /shadowrealm and complete her quests to earn Hollowborn Rep and to unlock new rewards in the merge shop.

• Hollowborn Thunderlord armor set
  
• Hollowborn Vampire armor set
  
• and more gear to come in the future

Once you find the enigmatic Lae, if you can convince him to talk, he'll tell you of a deep, dark fortress. Travel there and you'll find a series of quests that only the highest leveled heroes should begin. Complete them to unlock the exclusive Hollowborn Paladin armor set.

All of the set pieces are color customizable (to eye color) and 0 AC for free storage!

Plus, return next week for even more gear as we celebrate AQWorlds artist Lae's birthday in-game with new gifts!

Father's Day of DOOM returns
Our seasonal Father's Day map returns this weekend! Log in and travel back in time to the days when Empress Gravelyn was knee-high to a skeletal warrior. Battle to help Sepulchure's undead assistant keep his little Princess from destroying the dracolich fortress and try to survive her first experiments into necromancy. She's her father's favorite, and he is a VERY PROUD PAPA.

Making her cry might be the LAST thing you ever do. Literally. Complete Horatio's final quest for a chance to earn the 0 AC pieces of the all-new ShadowScythe Stranger armor set.

• Battle to round up the necro minions Baby Gravelyn loosed into the halls
  
• Clean up after her... experiments (EW)
  
• Give Baby Gravelyn her "snackies" (but do NOT ask about the ingredients)
  
• Battle Baby Gravelyn's bestest, newest friend! (If you DARE)

Picture snipped for being too big

Complete this weekend's new zone to unlock the One Final Task farming quest. Each time you complete it, you'll be able to choose another piece of the Shadow Phoenix armor set (shown above).

Another picture snipped for being too big

Plus, for all you shadow-loving heroes out there, complete the zone to unlock the ShadowScythe House Merge shop. Find the Sepulchure's Wing House (5 rooms) for all heroes. Members can unlock the Shadow Family Quarters (7 rooms) with the BEST view from the Dracolich's flying fortress (shown above)!
