The good news is limited, but pretty big. Zulghinlour has managed to revive CF.

Telnet carrionfields.net 4444

Note the new address. Carrionfields.com may work sometime soon, but for now use .net, and use port 4444. If old habits die hard for you, and you try 9999, don't be alarmed. Port 9999 is actually another mud, a POS clone.

The bad news is we got mostly screwed by ThePlanet, the old hosting company. There was apparently some issue with the credit card. We still don't know exactly what. We may never know. It isn't a lack of funds, we know that. Basically, our card was declined for whatever reason, and ThePlanet did not send any warning notification (that we received, at any rate).

Then, again without warning, they "reclaimed" the server. I.e. formatted it. Gone. Toast.

Luckily, we have a development server, and we are able to rebuild from there. The problem is, we don't keep/need pfiles on the development server.

So yeah. All of the pfiles are gone, never to return. As are some other important things, but nothing as bad as all the pfiles.

"Why weren't we told earlier?" To be frank, we didn't know exactly what was going on until yesterday, when Jullias was able to talk to someone at ThePlanet and get the info. So we honestly didn't have anything to report beyond what we did. Then we didn't want to post until we had figured out whether we could get CF up and running elsewhere. Zulg did, so here's the post.

Normally at this point I'd make a flippant remark about how Iunna deleted your pfiles, or how Graatch can be happy because the hummingbird pendant will be in, but honestly right now my heart isn't in it.

Good news is that we're going to be doing doubleXP for a while to get folks up to speed. I would ask that you bear with us while we get up and running on our new server, there's a bajillion kinks that have already been worked out (Zulg is the Man) and there's sure to be even more coming.

For the "IC" version of what happened, check out the History and Current Events board. In the meantime, it's time to choose...By what name do you wish to be mourned?

Ouch. Just learned about this now. Well, if there's some way I can help with replication or backup scripts or something hook me up with an email address to ping you at.

Do tell.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

I'm guessing somebody already has, but I might as well mention it just in case they haven't:

Have you checked http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.carrionfields.com ?

I browsed through it a bit and saw that a good amount of script was saved. Nothing exceptional, but maybe it is some sort of help.

A screenshot or two of what I'm talking about:

We've already recaptured as much (if not all) possible content from webarchive that we can. The time requirement of rebuilding that content on a new site is the only hiderance at this point. It will end up on the website eventually, just not as quickly as some of the players seem to think it should.

Thats quite a shock.

Thanks for all the hard work getting the most kickass game out there up again though.

I wondered how to destroy the Lich, guess theplanet figured out the solution.

Will it be back? Will it be especially outdated?

Back... eventually. I don't know that we have ANYthing saved from it besides what you can see here.

Lots of people have bemoaned the state of the website. Now maybe those people could submit some html and such and make something they think is worth marketing for.

The helpfiles I had were roughly a year old, which is why you see so much crap out of date. As has been pointed out by many, Dioxide's site has many of them far more accurately that what is in game right now (http://www.qhcf.net/help/)

It's on the list of things to try and figure out how to get back up (our previous system of inputting them is also gone with the server wipe so there is a lot more work to do there). In the short term, do what you can it's not the highest priority so may take awhile.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Pretty much all the edge helpfiles especially don't seem to be in the archive that we have and don't seem to be in Dio's archive.

I know there are some threads and things where people posted whole sets -- the more people can find, the less time I or someone will spend recreating all of them instead of making something more fun.

A ton of edge helpfiles are there. Not all, but lots.

http://diku.qhcf.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?GeneralHelpfiles

that there is a helpfile toggle at the top to switch from user input info on edges to the actual helpfile. Some classes have it, others do not.

ANTIHERO

Although many evil characters are equal-opportunity in choosing their enemies and a few become focused on the destruction of the sorts of good characters that hunt them for their nature, a few rare evil characters possess some sort of twisted moral code that makes them strongly prefer to prey upon other evil characters.

Those who walk this difficult path may find that they accrue a few small benefits, at a price. Among these, they gain bonus experience for killing evil NPCs but none for killing good NPCs, and a protection spell or supplication will shield them from harm by other evil characters rather than good characters.

As choosing this edge does nothing to alter the character's grouping restrictions or, most likely, the reaction of other PCs towards them, it is not recommended for inexperienced players, who will almost certainly find it much more hindrance than help.

SEE ALSO: EDGES


COURAGEOUS

Brave adventurers with this edge more readily resist a variety of fear affects. Minotaurs, being naturally immune to fear, may not choose this edge; nor may orcs, being naturally cowardly.

Characters with this edge, being brave as they are, may not set their wimpy as high as other characters.

SEE ALSO: EDGES, WIMPY


COVER UP

Charismatic characters with this edge have learned to better defend themselves from attacks aimed at their often-attractive faces.

SEE ALSO: PARTING BLOW, EDGES


DRAGONSLAYER

Adventurers with this edge are experienced in doing battle with dragons as well as the vulnerable parts of such a creature's anatomy. They deal greater damage to dragons and are more resistant to dragons' signature attacks, such as breath weapons.

SEE ALSO: EDGES


EHREN LORD

A character with this edge has further honed their abilities at singly fighting multiple foes, and deals slightly greater damage of any kind to assailants other than the one who bears the brunt of their attack.

Characters who choose this edge and despite it gang opponents down will find that their honorable soul rebels against their lifestyle as this edge grows less and less useful, ultimately providing no benefit or even only detriment to them.

SEE ALSO: EHREN SOUL, EDGES


EHREN SOUL

Some characters are born with souls that long for honorable combat. They find that when many enemies beseige them, their foes get in each others way slightly more than they would while ganging up on another opponent. However, woe be to the Ehren Soul who themselves strike with dishonor, for they then suffer as their foes have, but manyfold.

SEE ALSO: EDGES


EXTRA TRAINING

Characters can choose this edge and convert some of their edge points to a train. Note that this edge may be chosen multiple times, though its cost in edge points increases sharply once you have chosen it once.

EVASIVE

A character with this edge is more effective than usual at evading attacks.

SEE ALSO: EVADE, EDGES


EYES IN THE BACK OF YOUR HEAD

Characters with this edge are less likely to be surprised by would-be assassins and are thus less susceptible to assassinate.

See also: 'EDGES'


FOOTING

A character with this edge has learned to choose her stance and footing in a fight in such a way as to make it more difficult to move her from her chosen location by techniques such as pull, drive, buffets, earth ripples, driving ambushes, morosa charges, roguish separation or isolation, and so on.

In many ways, this is a more limited and much less effective equivalent of the sure footing technique developed by some rangers.

SEE ALSO: PULL, DRIVE, BUFFET, EARTH RIPPLE, AMBUSH, CHARGE OF THE MOROSA, SEPARATE, ISOLATE, SURE FOOTING, EDGES


FOOTWORK

Characters with this edge are more likely to anticipate kicking moves and avoid them using advanced footwork.

LAST BREATH

LUCKY

Some Therans are just plain luckier than others.

SEE ALSO: EDGES


MANA DROUGHT

A mage with this edge can draw more additional power to cast his spells than most in times of a strong Prismatic Veil. In effect, the strong Veil cripples his magic less than most.

Other aspects of Veil fluctuation that do not directly relate to spellcasting in the general sense are not affected by this Edge.

A character who has this Edge may not have the Mana Flood Edge or the Mana Drain Flaw.

SEE ALSO: THE VEIL, MANA FLOOD, MANA DRAIN, EDGES


MANA FLOOD

A mage with this edge can draw more additional power to cast his spells than most in times of a weakened Prismatic Veil.

OVERCOME DISTORTION

A character with this edge has trained long and hard under the effects of assorted exotic drugs and other debilitating conditions, ultimately yielding a fighting style that is less hampered than normal by effects such as displacement and sensory distortion.

SEE ALSO: EDGES, SYMPHONIC ECHOES


POSSESSIVE

A character with this edge has a small chance to instinctively and violently react to a failed attempt to steal from them. This chance diminishes but is not eliminated even should they be sleeping.

This edge does not reduce the success rate of steal attempts on a character, nor does it have a chance to function on a successful attempt to steal. Wiser characters may be slightly more effective at employing this edge.

SEE ALSO: STEAL, EDGES


QUICK HEALER

A character with this edge, if not bloody from battle, can recover hit points more quickly than normal. This ability pales dramatically in comparison with the Whispers of the Great Siege legacy and other more powerful regenerative abilities, but still may prove useful.

SEE ALSO: FAST HEALING, EDGES


REMAIN CONSCIOUS

A character with this edge has a small chance to ignore attacks which would otherwise put him to sleep or otherwise knock him out.

A character with this edge has learned to fight in a way that better shields their eyes from physical attacks that specifically target them, slightly reducing their chance to succeed.

SEE ALSO: DIRT KICK, EYEJAB, BLINDNESS DUST, TEMPLAR'S DEFENSE, EDGES


SHIELDSPINNER

A character with this edge has learned to gracefully spin their shield out of the way of blows meant to cleave it in twain. While not foolproof, many a rare and valuable has been saved by its flawless execution. Unfortunately, the high cost of this shield-preserving technique is that its performer tends to take an axe in the face.

SEE ALSO: SHIELD BLOCK, SHIELD CLEAVE, EDGES


SHREWD TRADER

A character skilled in commerce may choose this edge, which allows them to barter for greater quantities of items than previously possible. A shopkeeper will still not part with more of an item than it feels a fair bargain for what the character offers.

This edge is increasingly effective for characters who have accrued more commerce experience.

SEE ALSO: COMMERCE, BARTER, EDGES


SILENT SIDESTEPPER

Characters who choose this edge, typically among those who are adept at both moving silently and dodging blows, are able to gain a small advantage in dodging opponents who cannot see them.

No special advantage may be gained in this way versus characters who know the Maelstrom of the Veils legacy.

SEE ALSO: SNEAK, DODGE, MAELSTROM OF THE VEILS, EDGES


SLIPPERY SOUL

A character with this edge more effectively resists attempts to scry upon them.

A character with this edge may notice attempts to summon him, as well as attempts to open a gate or tesseract to him, even when those attempts are resisted.

SEE ALSO: SUMMON, GATE, TESSERACT, EDGES


TWITCHY

Characters with this edge have honed their keen perception into a sort of sixth sense which occasionally warns of danger if something in their environment is awry. These flashes of insight often save their lives. However, this paranoid intuition is not perfect and will occasionally warn them of danger when none is present.

SEE ALSO: EDGES


UNPREDICTABLE

Characters with this edge have an intuitive, free-spirited fighting style which defies easy prediction. Those who intend to fight them by anticipating their moves in battle will find it more difficult to do so.

SEE ALSO: STRIKING THE SHADOW'S FOOTFALL, MARTIAL TRANCE, EDGES


WISE RECOVERY

The fast healing skill represents a multitude of factors ranging from sheer toughness to a knowledge of simple herbs and how to keep wounds clean. Characters who choose this edge tend more towards the latter end of the spectrum, and may, while not bloody, regenerate hit points based on their wisdom rather than their constitution, if it is better.

This can be particularly valuable to long-lived characters whose natural constitution has taken a severe beating over the years.

SEE ALSO: FAST HEALING, EDGES


ZOMBIE FIGHTER

A character with this edge has learned to anticipate the predictable and crude attacks of non-sentient undead, allowing for such attacks to be parried with greater ease. (Zombies, for example, are typically non-sentient; greater undead such as wraiths and ghouls often possess some sentience.)

some of these being rewritten in the process

LYRICAL ADAPTATION
Bards who utilize this Edge find themselves able to switch repertoire again in less time when switching from their preferred repertoire.


BARDIC TEMPERANCE
Bards with this Edge are quite different (opposite, actually) from their teetotalling guildmates. They gain no benefits from imbibing alcohol; in fact, it hampers their abilities. Rather, it is by eschewing alcohol that they gain some measure of the benefits other bards enjoy while tipsy.

A bard with this edge is prohibited from choosing some other edges pertaining to alcohol.

DEFT HARBINGER OF TALISMANIC DOOM
Some bards and rangers have melded brandishing staves into their martial style to the point where they can brandish an offensive staff faster than most.

See also: EDGES, DODGE, ENHANCED DAMAGE, BRANDISH

PROFICIENT VOCALIST
Bards with this edge enjoy increased ability at singing without an instrument.

Bards that choose this edge may not choose Proficient Instrumentalist.


PROFICIENT INSTRUMENTALIST
Bards with edge enjoy greater proficiency with an instrument. Bonuses to singing with a given repertoire may be increased, and penalties to singing with a given repertoire may be reduced. (Instruments which are neither good nor bad for a repertoire remain so.)

Bards that choose this edge may not choose Proficient Vocalist.


TAVERN BRAWLER
Bards with this edge are accustomed to bar fights, and their martial abilities are improved as a result. Tavern Brawlers have more damaging roundhouses and brawling skills.


SOOTHING VOICE
Bards with this edge have enjoy bonuses to curative songs, as well as Tranquil Serenade. Bards tainted by darkness lack sufficient compassion to learn this edge.


LOREMASTER
Although the wee folk already possess a remarkable inherent knowledge of the properties of items, those that expend additional effort in this area find their lore is dramatically more accurate.


'WANDERING MINSTREL'
Accustomed to wandering ways, some bards have become skilled with their walking sticks. They enjoy an improved ability to fight with a staff, including delivering pugil strikes and deflecting attacks with a basic defensive spin.


'HIDDEN ASSETS'
A bard or thief with this edge is skilled at hiding their wealth and appearing truly destitute, panhandling with greater effectiveness.


'GUARDED VOICE'
A bard with this edge has, over time, developed a fighting style which better protects their most crucial asset in any fight: their voice. They are less likely to suffer an attack which deprives them of their ability to sing, although this is not entirely without its drawbacks. For example, a dagger thrown to strike the bard's throat has a chance to be avoided or deflected, but in the process can strike the bard elsewhere, even if the throw would have otherwise missed. Despite these risks, the benefits can be significant.


'SOUNDER OF THE KNELL'
A bard with this edge can, when singing a requiem over the corpse of someone they personally killed, experience more potent and long-lasting effects. It takes a significant history of violence for a bard to develop this ability.


'SHATTERING NOTE'
When singing a piercing dissonance, a bard with this edge can sustain the final note, possibly shattering glass objects in the inventory of those the song harms. Although somewhat rare, this effect can be quite satisfying. The more glass items are shattered by the bard's note, the longer it will take them to recover from singing the song.


'NOCTURNE OF DREAD'
Those who fail to resist the Nocturne of Fright sung by a bard with this edge have a chance to be afflicted with a more lasting, if still brief, fear.


WINDSONG
An arial bard with this edge sings more effectively under the open sky.


WOODSONG
A wood-elven bard with this edge can sing more powerfully when in a forest.


'SHIELD OF WORDS'
The protective songs of a bard with this edge are slightly longer lasting.


SERENADE
A bard with this edge may compel members of the opposite sex with a seductive serenade, increasing the effectiveness of several subtle songs traditionally favored by romantic bards.


DANCER
A bard with this edge has learned to dance to accompany their vocal performance; this reduces the loss of effectiveness experienced when singing a capella. In order to dance, the bard needs to be standing, singing without an instrument, lack any crippling or encumberments which hamper their ability, and have sufficient endurance (movement). This drains a small amount of movement.


'CHANGE OF HEART'
Choosing this edge clears a bard's preferred repertoire, allowing them to choose their preferred repertoire again. This is a one-time event and the bard may not experience a second change of heart.


'CHOSEN VOICE'
A bard with this edge channels divine grace in their Canticle of the Gods, empowering its standard affects and adding some new blessings. Only a bard with the sanction of a God, in the form of their sacred tattoo, may choose this edge.


'NATURE'S SONG'
A bard with this edge has learned to sing in tune with the power of nature; their offensive songs will not harm creatures at home within the wilds.

A bard with this edge has learned to work their offensive music within the bounds of the laws; within protected cities, their music can only harm wanted criminals or their servants.


SWASHBUCKLER
This edge can improve the ability of a bard to evade blows. It is only useful to bards somewhat more charming than they are agile.


'DAUNTING PRESENCE'
All successful bards have a strong charm and sense of the theatric, enabling them to evoke a sense of awe or dread. However, independent of this, some bards are people worthy of genuine fear, able to kill and maim a hundred different ways with the power of their voice alone. For these bards, their theatrical ability magnifies the seeds of hestitation or trepidation in an enemy's mind a hundredfold, causing even those who despise them to occasionally lose their nerve for a moment and fail to attack them. While such hestiation is rare in a seasoned adventurer, it can easily save the bard's life.

For this ability to work, the victim must be able to both see and hear the bard; it works better as the victim's morale falls or fear grows.


'FEIGN WEAKNESS'
A bard with this edge may use their acting ability to appear more wounded than they actually are, to some degree exaggerating the severity of their wounds.

A bard with this edge may not choose 'Feign Strength'.


'FEIGN STRENGTH'
A bard with this edge may use their acting ability to appear less wounded than they actually are, to some degree concealing the severity of their wounds from their assailants.

A bard with this edge may not choose 'Feign Weakness'.


'ERODE CONFIDENCE'
A bard with this edge may taunt and banter with their enemies as they fight, gradually lowering their morale.


'LANGUID LULLABY'
The audience of a lullaby sung by a bard with this edge may also be very briefly oversome with a powerful languor, temporarily visiting effects not unlike a slow spell upon them.


'FORCE OF PERSONALITY'
A character with this edge may attempt to resist mental and paralytic effects with the strength of their potent personality rather than with their mental prowess.


'ALCOHOL TOLERANCE'
A character with this edge can imbibe greater quantities of alcohol before suffering ill effects.

A character with this edge may not choose the 'Bardic Temperance' edge.


'HABITUAL DRUNK'
Developing their alcohol tolerance to an extreme degree, a character with this edge may imbibe truly terrifying amounts of alcohol with no apparent side effects. At some point, alcohol poisoning will still set in as normal.


'DAUNTING DIRGESINGER'
A bard with this edge may sing maledictive songs to greater effect.


'COMBAT SHOWMANSHIP'
A bard with this edge may display their weapons prowess in combat to greater effect.


'PERFECT PITCH'
A bard with this edge may tune their instruments more reliably and swiftly.


'ELVEN ROMANCE'

'FRIGHTFUL FIEND'
no help file


'DISTORTION OPPORTUNIST'
A character with this edge has developed a fighting style which capitalizes upon the sensory distortion of their foes, distracting them with feints and quick, silent moves that confuse them even further and cause more blows to go astray.


WARSINGER
The battaglia of a bard with this edge, if sung while fighting, inspires allies who hear it with more pronounced immediate inspirational and debilitative effects.


'MUSICIAN'S CARESS'
A bard with this edge grips their instrument for dear life, making it somewhat harder to wrench from their grasp by various means.


'RAUCOUS RACKET'
A song of cacophonous clamor sung by a bard with this edge may also fully deafen its victims for a short time.


'INSPIRATION OF ANGELS'
The beneficial songs of a noble bard with this edge are more powerful when heard by an audience that battles the wicked.


'DEPTHS OF DEPRESSION'
A bard with this edge has learned to capitalize upon the depression and doubts of their enemies (when present), enabling them to sing harmful songs to those with low morale to greater effect.


'INSINUATIVE OVERTURE'
When a bard with this edge sings an apocalyptic overture, they are more likely to visit illusions of fire rather than ice upon those more vulnerable to the effects of fire and to likewise visit illusions of ice rather than fire upon those more vulnerable to the effects of cold.


'PSYCHOLOGICAL INSIGHT'
An intelligent bard with this edge better understands the keen workings of the highly developed mind, and how to find the proverbial gaps in their mental armor. Even the finest minds have phobias, quirks, and foibles to be played upon, in ways that a dimmer mind could not be so occupied.


'GLORY HOUND'
Some bards thrill in the thick of battle, regenerating mana more effectively while fighting, especially while fighting formidable opponents.


'KILLING JOKE'
In violent Thera, it is no wonder that even bards of a comic bent often turn their cheerful art to murder. A bard with this edge sings comedic damaging songs, including the dread grand nocturne, to greater effect than normal.


'HEAR LIGHT'
A bard with this edge has honed their sense of hearing and listening skills to such an extreme degree that they can ignore or reduce some of the effects of blindness, so long as they are not also deaf. Some say that these bards have so gifted of ears as to be able to hear light itself, although that is, of course, impossible.


SCRUTINY
With long experience reading the moods of crowds, a bard with this edge may discern something of the mood and fatigue of those they see.

One mistake in: BARDIC TEMPERANCE, I forgot the second paragraph, "A bard with this edge is prohibited from choosing some other edges pertaining to alcohol."

SEE ALSO: EDGES, ELBOW, KNEE, KICK, BRAWLING


'PRIMAL TERROR'

Although orcs are usually more prone to fear effects than many characters, some orcs have adapted to the constant state of primal terror that floods their writhing brains. Rather than try to feebly resist fear poisons and magics, these orcs effectively ride the wave of terror, weathering the fear more ably.

'MASTER OF LEISURE'
A transmuter with this edge wields the spells of relaxation to far greater effect.

SEE ALSO: EDGES, RELAXATION, 'MASS RELAXATION'

'MASTERY OF SELF'
Long self-experimentation has granted some transmuters an exceptional mastery of specifically their own body and metabolism. All spells cast upon themselves are done with slightly greater effectiveness.

This edge requires a strong understanding of metabolic unity to learn.

SEE ALSO: EDGES, 'METABOLIC UNITY'

'METABOLIC FORTITUDE'
Putting their extensive knowledge of the systems of their own body to use, some transmuters find that they can more easily shrug off toxins and illness.

ORGANMENDER
Transmuters who focus upon mending grevious internal injuries may do so more often and with greater effectiveness.

Transmuters who seek to learn this healing art focus first upon mending wounds of the flesh and bone. Only good transmuters are sufficiently selfless to learn the secrets of this edge.

SEE ALSO: EDGES, 'REPAIR ORGAN', 'FLESHMENDER', 'BONEMENDER'


'PARALYTIC OPPORTUNIST'
Some more martial transmuters have taken the somewhat ethically questionable step of focusing their combat style to better take advantage of the combat deficiencies of the paralyzed and otherwise very crippled. While never winning them humanitarian awards from the Triumvirate of Voralian City, this edge does reap powerful advantages in melee combat versus those so incapacitated.

<b>'PSYCHE CRUSH'<b>
Transmuters of strong mind may learn to employ the Psyche Crush against more dimwitted opponents they strike with neurological disruption. This can increase the damage of the disruption, as well as the potency of its non- paralytic side-effects.

'REGENERATOR OF SELF'
Transmuters with advanced understanding of their own body's processes can repair damage to their body with great effectiveness.

SEE ALSO: EDGES, 'REPAIR FLESH', 'REPAIR BONE', 'REPAIR ORGAN', 'MASTERY OF SELF'


'REORGANIZE INNARDS'
Some advanced transmuters have been known to take the radical step of reorganizing their internal organs to better hide some of the vital and squishy bits from would-be assailants. This can make attacks that require knowing just where those bits are, such as backstabs, assassinations, disembowelment, arterial strikes, and the like more difficult to land. However, these organs tend to be found where they are in nature for a reason, and this irreversible process can have dangerous and unforeseen side-effects as the terrible price of its more obvious benefits.

'RESIST PARALYSIS'
Some transmuters turn their knowledge of paralysis to defense, learning to resist all forms of paralysis more effectively.

'STEALTHY REDIMENSIONING'
Particularly sneaky transmuters can learn to reassume three-dimensional form more subtlety, often giving no indication at all to those nearby.

TORMENTOR
Some transmuters excel in causing their victims acute pain. This unpleasant prediliction for suffering grants them more effective fumbling magic and often more excruciating muscle disruption magic.

Only the most depraved of transmuters readily acquires the tormentor's art.

See also: EDGES, FUMBLE, 'DISRUPT MUSCLE'


'VIVIMANCER'S REJECTION'
The art of transmutation traditionally focuses upon affecting relatively natural living creatures. This at time proves inconvienient for some transmuters, who, when beset by hordes of undead, constructs, or extraplanar creatures, have been known to wish for more pleasant occupations such as carpentry or farming.

In answer to this difficulty, some transmuters pursue a school of thought often known as the Vivimancer's Rejection, which trains them to focus both device- based magic and what little of their magic can successfully be brought to bear upon the abnormal with greater effectiveness.

Vivimancer's Rejection and Vivimancer's Precision are antithetical; a transmuter may not choose both of these edges.

SEE ALSO: EDGES, 'VIVIMANCER'S PRECISION'


'VIVIMANCER'S PRECISION'
A transmuter learns much about the weaknesses of the races of Thera, knowledge that has some use even when they are not employing the direct teachings of their own guild. A transmuter with this edge has learned to apply this knowledge to more effectively use offensive device-based magic against the sorts of creatures they may affect with their metabolic spells.

A transmuter may not choose both this edge and the Vivimancer's Rejection.

Humans and half-humans with the Barbarian edge grew up in one of Thera's frigid
wastelands or frozen tundras. They move through such terrain more easily and
know how to protect themselves from the lingering effects of the bitter cold.
Because of this, they also suffer from snowstorms created by frost magic much
less than most. However, should they find themselves in a desert or other
exceedingly hot climate, the scorching heat causes them more harm than most.

Anyone?

It had all of those and more. They're better than nothing, at least.

http://diku.qhcf.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?NecroEdgeHelpfiles

I've sorted out what you specifically asked for from the list:

Cursebringer - Stronger, harder to resist and remove Curse.

Defiler - Offensive skills may drain extra power from natural places. May then provoke natural creatures, but give some resistance to certain feats of natural power.

Horrific - Lich - Horrify better, and more often.

Kindred’s Touch - A powerful Vampiric Touch may shorten the time of bleeding wounds.

Nightmare's Chilling Call - Failed sleep will do damage the first time it fails on a person.

Penumbral Might - More powerful and more damaging Shadows, who will attack any who stand in their way, and can stand the light of day to a limited extent. Penumbral necromancers also possess a more durable umbra.

Sightbinder - Less resistable, harder to heal, and longer lasting Blindness.

Skeletal Smith - Longer lasting, heartier, and possibly damaging reducing Armor of Living Bone.

Subterranean Sorcerer - Dark-Elf - Ability to Summon in places of the Underdark.

Torturer - More damaging Lash with a chance to cause a minor malediction.

And then type cursebringer.

Or whatever helpfile you are looking for. It's not exhaustive, but it's fairly up to date.

I'm not a big fan of the wiki descriptions as the odd one is off the mark.

The qhcf helpfile list should have everything up to that date. I think Dioxide had some script that took them all directly from the game. I wonder if it would still be possible for Gabe to adjust and run it after Imms confirm that they've salvaged everything they can from Dio's.
