For the month of July, Imperian will be hosting a 30% credit bonus and a 30% website artifact sale. We will also be releasing six new artifacts.
All credits purchases will automatically recieve 30% more credits. If you buy 100 credits, you will get 130! Buy 1,000, get 1,300. Buy 10,000, get 13,000.
If you're on a membership, it's a 40% bonus!
Do it, it's fun.
Additionally, the artifact shopping cart will be turned on. You can purchase the exact artifacts you want without the messy business of extra credits. The cart will track the credit value of the artifacts you select and adjust the total cost based on the number of credits it would take to purchase them. Then, it knocks 30% off or 40% if you're on a membership.
In short, the more you buy, the less the artifacts will cost. Jump on it!

To accompany the sale we are release 6 new, powerful artifacts. Read below to learn more about these, or review HELP LOST TOMES.
The Lost Tomes of Albashir
-----------------------------------------
The Lost Tomes were written by a knowledgeable archivist by the name of Albashir. He was a scholar that studied the Diachaim in ancient Antioch. In each tome he laid out powerful secrets that allow individuals to focus the powers of the Diachaim through the books themselves. Following the directions, performing the rituals, and reciting the words outlined within the ancient pages can create powerful effects.
Currently six tomes are known to exist.
The tomes have lost pages over time. It is rumored that powerful beings in the world have collected these pages and can be claimed by defeating them. Recovered pages can be added to the appropriate tomes and will increased their effectiveness.
NOTE: You cannot currently find the lost pages. They will be released with an upcoming event and cannot be purchased with credits. You will be able to find/earn them yourself, or purchase them from other players.
REBIND <page> TO <tome>
The number of pages rebound into a Tome will increase its potency.
0 = Level One Tome

Usage: READ <tome>
CLIMB INTO <tome>
ENTER <portal>

Players can CLIMB INTO <tome> to enter this unique spacial area. Use the command ENTER <portal> to leave. Anything you leave in this space will be here when you return. All players can enter the tome, so be careful where you open it. If you logout while in the space, you will have about 5 minutes before the tome is closed.
The tome can only be picked up by the owner. If the the tome is picked up the portal will be closed. When the portal is closed, everyone is removed from the room and will teleport to the room the Tome was originally read in.
