Some of you will remember Galathan, and some of you will not.

Do not worry, he is not dead.

He has been busy making a game.

And of course I cannot figure out how to embed it here.

I am not just promoting it because he is a good friend or has worked a long time on it. I am promoting it cause Tatiana is one of the NPCs in it.

Thanks for the shout-out Tai!

When I made Sir Cuthbert, you did come to mind, Cuthbert. Though that was not the primary reason to name him why I did, just a happy after-thought.

Oh, and Cat, you are still a monkey.

I did base certain people or organizations after those which I have had the fortune of meeting or being part of during my time in UO. There is an evil cult of dark worshippers based after our very huggable OES members. An elitest machiavellian caste with highlights of Humanis, and some subtle homages to the Stormreavers, among others. Tatiana Alexi was kind enough to let me put her into the game, so of course she is going to be the source of some of the best weapons and armor you can get! UO, Ultima games in general played a large role in inspiration for this game.

*pretends you used his name on purpose from the start*

Thank you. This is quite an honor.

I'll tell you what. In your honor, I shall make his cape dark red, like the one on your little avatar picture thing!

Thanks for the patronage and support Cuthbert, it really is appreciated (and I just finished coloring Sir Cuthbert's cape dark red).

A monkey and a cat hanging out. That is doable!

I have some great new graphics brewing up, and a bunch of sweet changes in general, if anyone is interested in taking a look:

It's been awhile since I checked back here. I want to give a big thank you to the folk who chipped in and helped make the project successful.

UO, and the Ultima universe in general is a huge influence on my project. As such, I want to extend an open Beta invitation to everyone who still is a current member of the UO RP community (otherwise, the Beta is limited to a certain range of backers from the project). You guys (those of you old enough to still remember me!) have been a big, and very happy part of my life over the past 12+ years.

Anyways, if you wish to check out how the project is doing, feel free to go to my website: Pioneer Valley Games

If you want to participate in the Beta testing, then head on over to here: Aleph Beta Testing

Nice work Gala!

You named the game "Aleph"?

What am I, chopped liver? Or perhaps a frothy, poo-based beverage?
