There will be a brief (30 minute) downtime in half an hour or so to update some of our software. As with any update, there can be things that don't quite work right afterwards if we need to update scripts to work with the new software, so please bear with us if this is the case :)

Aluriya was recently the victim of a malicious attack resulting in malware being uploaded to the site. You may have seen a malware warning when attempting to access the site. We believe we have ferreted out all the malicious code, but we have taken the site offline temporarily to be sure that it is safe and that we've identified the security issue so that it will not happen again.

While we attempt to keep our code as secure as possible, any site is potentially vulnerable to malicious attacks. Everyone should use an anti-malware program as a routine precaution! We encourage everyone who accessed Aluriya in the past few days to be sure to run a malware scan and change your Aluriya password. It is good practice to change your password for ALL sites on a regular basis, and never use the same password for more than one site!

We are sorry for any inconvenience this has caused and we'll try to be back online asap!

This month we are celebrating the little critters found around Khimeros, Khimbits!!


You can now find 2015 Retro Khimbit Packs while Foraging, while playing Dice, while chatting in the Forums, and even while completing Kai and Tai's Quests.

Inside you could receive any collectable khimbit that was released in foraging, dice, or the forums from October 2009 to April 2014!

These will only be available until the end of the month.



Khimbit Breeding Crystals are no longer stocking in the foraging grounds. Instead the Tea Shoppe has reopened and Onyx will request that you bring her certain items in exchange for them. As a reminder, Khimbit Breeding Crystals are used to breed Fennik and Margay khimbits only.

We've heard from the elder dragons that almost all of the runes have been found. They will likely be all found the end of the day tomorrow!



We've also heard from a spokes person of the Boreal people, that while they are grateful for the masses helping to display unity and rekindle the life in their sacred tree, they are very overwhelmed by the sheer number of people coming through their once quiet villages and hunting grounds. In fact, they are very concerned that their land simply will not be able to support it for much longer. As a sign of respect, Khistopher has agreed that in two days time he will provide assistance to restrict the access into their land. Any final blessings should be offered to the tree before that.
