  and such) 
- Weapon specialization for fighters.

- Detailed crafting, requiring the right tools, ingredients, and   
  recipe/plans.

  Qedit (online quest editor), almost 200 npc races, and tons of   
  features to make building a breeze.

  rebuilding our world from scratch. Only stock area left is the 
  academy which we've nearly completely refaced.
- Factions, led by players, made up of areas, which can produce 
  money, materials, etc.. for global trade.

Features/Systems planned in the future: 

- caravans which take goods from one city to another, which 
  can at times be ambushed. 
- new combat system, initiative based, involving weapon 
  speeds, etc... 
- 'instanced' dragons, with smart AI who can devastate towns 
  and then run to hide in their lair. 
- and much much more.
