We at Lost Pilgrims Studio want to wish you all Merry Christmas (or whatever else you celebrate in your neck of the woods at this time of the year) and a hopefully-much-better 2021 than this year has been globally! We hope that you are safe and well in these dark times.

Keep a weather eye on the horizon, as we'll continue working hard on Vagrus, releasing content and features continuously to be able to deliver a final game in 2021 that has the high quality we aim for as well as our quirky, unique touch. :)

The Assassin enemy in Vagrus is a version of the Handjari Assassins of Tark, sharing skills and a general appearance of a masked, sneaky killer. Yet their looks are less culturally specific than their Tarkian brethren and this was the goal with their character art so that they can fit easier into the many combat encounters where mercenaries or henchmen are found, complementing their combat effectiveness with their deadly toys.

Hey everyone, a quick recap of the patch/fix that went live during the weekend can be found here. Hopefully, the more egregious errors have been squashed, now onto the smaller ones as well as the upcoming content development before the year closes out. :)

New/Updated Features:  

• Exploit leadership perk enabled. Use RF to reroll available Trade Tasks  
• Objective area markers for certain events where you need to scout a larger area [like bounties] so you know, at least roughly, the location  
• Goods category filters on the Market  
• Specify quantity button on the Market - mainly for Steam Remote Play users playing on iPads  
• Goods pilfered by the enemy can be taken back if you destroy them in Crew Combat  - Entering major settlements with a larger armed force now requires a license  
• Vagrus now runs in the background

Bug Fixes:

Hey everyone,

today, we are happy to share the changes we squeezed into this new update! Better yet, we have included two additional features that we managed to implement on top of our initial plans.

A quick recap of what we have added (skip ahead to see the bonus additions):

The Stinger Scorpion is a deadly beast that usually ambushes its prey from under the sand. In this week's animation showcase, however, it is right here in all its terrifying glory.

The Vortex is a prominent point of interest on our chart and takes up a lot of space on our gigantic playable area in game. It has been a static item for a long time but when it came to adding the Deven region, we knew that we had to change that and give players something much better.

So here we are, a little later, looking at the new Vortex, resting our gaze on its forever swirling form. We are very satisfied with the result and hope that you are, too. Let us know what you think!

'Disgusting little runts. Eaters of the dead. Pale vermin. I hereby vow to do all in my power to push them out of your neighborhoods and businesses, to bar them from decent citizens of the Empire, and in the end perhaps even rid this city of their filth altogether.'

- Tribune Septimus Votano of Deven in a speech about Wraiths during his campaign for office

One of the recruitable companions, Criftaa, once a bandit leader, now a bounty hunter, is ready to put an arrow between the eyes of your enemies.

Even though the Riven Realms do not celebrate anything comparable to Halloween in Fall, we at Lost Pilgrims are ardent fans of the spooky season as well as the celebration at its end. So in that spirit (sorry), let us wish all of you a fantastic All Hallow's Eve!

'How hasty you are to point out that my people owe allegiance to your Senator. But your petty strife and pitiful intrigues bore us, Imperial, and our allegiance is merely ink on paper, not invoked by blood. We never shared battle, nor feasts, nor kinship. The Senator thought to purchase us with that crude contract but we are Moreldin, descendants of Caladnir Aen Daglunath and the great heroes of the Second Age, the victors of the Forgeheart Massacre, the defenders of the Kavraenar Ziggurath, and scions of Dread Skar'Voran. My kin owes nothing to yours save for the silver already paid as per your sorry little contract. Tell this to your Senator.'
