The recipe entries show an image of the crafted item, the name of the item and the number and type of materials and tools needed.

## Skills

There are 15 crafting skills in Shroud of the Avatar. They are divided up into three categories:

## Overview

Portalarium will publish a full art style guide on the official site and release an asset starter pack on the Unity asset store to help any artists interested in contributing.

Portalarium will put out biweekly calls for art submissions with detailed descriptions or concept art for the assets needed. If Portalarium chooses to use any of the submissions, the artist will be paid four times the Unity store price for the work and will be rewarded in-game with appropriate trophies, or in some cases, a statue version of his or her art for display. The winner will also be announced on the official website and the artist's name will be included in the credits of the final game. The artist will retain rights to the work and can continue to sell it in the Unity store, where can be displayed with a "*Shroud of the Avatar*-approved" banner.

Escape the Battlefield (Blood River Massacre)

Preceding

**Escape the Battlefield** is a task in *Shroud of the Avatar*. It is the first task for a new avatar on the Path of Truth when they arrive at Blood River Massacre.

## Description

I appeared on a burning dock. Bodies lie everywhere. Something very wrong happened here.

## Walkthrough

Take a couple steps forward to trigger the self-explanatory Double click a body task, and search one of the bodies. Optionally turn right and enter the building to the south for another self-explanatory task: Read the letter. Either way, take the stairs up from the dock to trigger the Talk to the man ahead task. Agreeing to accompany Robert Villines will begin the Accompany Robert task that runs concurrently with this one.

Shortly after ascending the stairs toward the village proper, the Find a weapon quest will trigger. Approach the weapons rack by the stables in the southeast to complete that task and trigger the self-explanatory Double click the sword task. Complete that and optionally collect other weapons in the vicinity, as using the sword is not required.

Optionally investigate the village area further. Zac is at the upper level of the stables with some useful information, and there are several notes providing further background. There is also substantial low-value loot to gather, but be aware that the weight of all the available loot is more than enough to encumber the avatar.

When the avatar reaches the east side of the central west-east road, the Explore the village elder's house task will trigger. Entering the house and completing the Double click the dagger task also completes this task.

To let you test out a wide variety of these skills we will give you a bunch of skill points to allocate up and down as you wish. This allocation of points will automatically build your deck. Skills can be locked in your toolbar or left unlocked so they can be used in combos during combat.
* **Death System:** OooOoooOOOOooo! Death will now turn you into a ghost. Current thinking about the death system will be shared at a later date.
* **Main Continent Scenes:** Finally players will get to see their first maps on the main continent including a city that is part of the story, adventuring areas, and a player town.
* **Interactive Areas:** Don't you wish you could move that chair in the tavern to have a better view of the front door? Public areas like taverns will now be flagged as interactive areas. This will allow more freedom in those spaces by allowing the moving but not taking of items.
* **AI Behaviors:** NPCs will now start to have schedules and change behavior according to the time. This will include things like going around turning on the lights around town as the sun goes down. NPCs will also now react to players taking and breaking stuff so watch out when you try to steal that loaf of bread!
* **Books:** Books will no longer just be decorative objects! Read lovely poems and stories written by our very own community in the game. Try to collect them all!
