* '''10.19.22:''' A [[Libraries|library]] system is now in place, along with rankings for scholarly sorts who publish at those libraries. While anyone might have a personal library composed of works that they have put into shelves themselves, the formal library system requires a group of scholars for upkeep. The PUBLISH, RESEARCH, and REVIEW abilities have been added as special abilities for those who have levels in both [[Education (skill)|Education]] and [[Investigation (skill)|Investigation]] skills. You can make copies of raw research or published works at libraries as well. Updates have been made to climbing. It is now more difficult to stop your fall on a continuing slope, the steeper the slope is. Climbing has become more difficult in general as previously its ease was boosted by a blunt measure of strength - but that boost is now more dependent on fatigue and encumbrance as well. Remember to assess exits while climbing so you know how steep they are (measured in the difficulty of the climb).

Song of Avaria is a text-based roleplaying game that incorporates both MUD- and MUSH-like features to create a dynamic storytelling experience in an intricate and expansive fantasy world.

SoA is set in the vast land of Avaria, a roughly Earth-like world with a host of cultures and countries spanning a large globe. Geopolitics and religion mix with magic and adventure to create a realm full of possibilities, where player characters can pursue a huge range of goals limited only by their own imagination. Whether a pious priest, a bold knight of the realm, a canny entrepreneur, a climbing socialite, a studious researcher, a street thug with ambitions, or simply an ordinary peasant or citizen with dreams of something grander, Avaria offers a stage for characters to play out their own personal stories with one another against a vast backdrop of history in the making.

More information can be found on the Setting page or under the Lore links.
