My first trip consisted solely of checking out the first three towns, Redspire, Greenspire, and Bluespire.
I entered BLUESPIRE from Nanto behind the meeting hall... portal drop-off is at 38.3N, 75.6W
Vendors in Bluespire:
Nathious Agoren the Jeweler
Baggs the Armorer
Wahnaqa bint Fayat the Mage (no gold scarabs, moderates are 3K)
Lark Grifana the Barkeep (she's my favorite, though I'm not sure why :P)
Brother Ku-Xao Sutan the Monk (healing potions are 1K)
Yusnar ibn Lomac the Grocer
Merlonna Farel the Collector - Carenzi pouch belts, marsh siraluun claws, drudge charms, mud golem hearts
Dorlan the Armorer
Portals in Bluespire:
Ahurenga Portal 40.2N, 76.0W => Plains
N. Manumet Plains 40N, 74.5W (level 25 restrict)
Redspire portal 43.2N, 68.1W
Holtburg 38.3N, 75.6W
REDSPIRE
Vendors:
Leyrale Shalorn the Tailor
Micon Stuirs the Barkeep
Ling Xiao the Collector (carenzi sentry pelts, tidal siraluun claws, drudge charms, water golem hearts)
Lam Yi the Jeweler
Brother Klars Melankeep the Monk
Milanna Russman the Mage (no gold scarabs, moderates are 3K)
Ton Ai Yen the Armorer
Portals:
Northern Ahurenga Plains Portal 40.9N, 83.5W => 52.1N, 86.2W
Greenspire portal 40.5N, 82.4W => 42.9N, 68.1W
Plateau (COOL PORTAL!!! INSIDE A TREASURE-ISLAND-TYPE SKULL!) 42N, 77.6W
there were a couple more portals there, but I went through the skull portal before being able to record their locations
GREENSPIRE
Vendors:
Shalon ibn Mayar the Collector (carenzi burrowers pelts, littoral siraluun claws, sand golem hearts, drudge charms)
Kasin ibn Sayrak the Barkeep
Britana (turn mattekar pelts to her)
Britana's companion (didn't get the name, not sure of his function, other than the fact that he tells us about Bachus, who lives on the western shore... *making mental note to seek her out*I)
Brother Samir ibn Lomaq the Monk (tower)
Greygor Stillwise the Armorer (tower)
Yen Loc Anh the Mage (tower)
Misha the Jeweler (tower)
Redspire portal: 43.2N, 68.2W
Each of these towns are beginner towns. If you want to start a character to level there, the logical progression from town to town for leveling is Blue -> Red -> Green.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT AT THIS TIME, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO TIE TO THESE PORTALS AND RECALL WITHOUT TIE IS ALSO NOT DOABLE. Why? My guess is because this is Turbine's way of monitoring the traffic of DMers vs. nonDMers to the island and its locations. I suspect, too, that as more and more people get the expansion, we'll see either the ability to tie/recall and/or we'll find lifestones.
The flora and fauna on the new island is really neat, very different from the rest of Dereth. Colorations are different, environmental vegetation is nothing you've seen on Thistledown before. And of course, there are new monsters there, too.
So far, I've seen the carenzis (little dog-type monsters, sooooo CUTE!!!), siraluuns...
...and humans - yes, humans! The ones I've seen so far are cutthroats, highwaymen, and brigands dressed in regular clothing and they attack when you're exploring. Some of them carry bandit weapons. I've also heard that some of them wear matty robes, but as I've only been on the lower coast, I've not seen them yet.
So, I'm still doing some exploring, exploring, exploring. I want to go fight, but I also want to get a good idea of the lay of the land, too. The island is small, but it has surprises, and I want to be prepared as much as possible for them.
Ahhh, this is fun :)
