Welcome to A Wiki in the Desert, a wiki for the Massively Multiplayer On-line Role-Playing Game A Tale in the Desert.
This wiki exists to document the game and to provide a community scratchpad for the players. You can find guides on things such as growing Flax, an Atlas of interesting places, and various personal pages created by the Users and Guilds. If you're looking to buy and sell, try Trading. Visit the community portal for lots of info on current events, debates on the forums, or just random chatter.
Anyone with an ATITD game account can edit any page on this site, but you have to log in first. Please read the user's guide and information on formatting to see how to edit, and read our Policies before editing. Politics are not welcome (exception: Users pages, but no personal attacks please) and, if you want to discuss something such as laws, you'll find the forums more suitable. If you have any difficulties, please ask around in game or contact a wiki admin.
If you have a suggestion for how to improve the wiki software, please add it to the Suggestions page. If you have a suggestion for improving the content, please just go ahead and do it! If you want to contribute but don't know how, start creating missing pages listed here, or verify the information in pages containing unchecked content copied from the T3 wiki.
Test of Beacons
The Test of Beacons has been released. Wahim announced this today with the following message:
Disciples of Worship, prepare for your third Test. From time to time, the gods will send an alter to those who have performed their favored activity in the last week. Activities are everyday tasks, perhaps feeding sheep, or fishing. The difficulty lies in the fact that there are dozens of such activities, and there is no straightforward way to determine what this week's activity is. Disciples of Worship, please the Gods by completing the Test of Beacons!
Visit the nearest University of Worship to begin this test!
Level required to begin: 17
A Big thanks to Traak in Queens Retreat who discovered the 42nd activity needed to open this test!

Current Events
Phile's Sorrow
Following a vicious fight between BooBoo and Phile, Phile has stormed off, leaving behind a notice that would seem to be the warrant for the arrest of Nikomedes!
A new Events page!
A New Events Page has been started to try and catalog events in a more orderly manner. Please follow the current method and add events to their own page and list them in order of occurrence on the Events page.
The old page still exists, at The Old Current Events Page.
How to Log In
If you have problems logging in, please contact FaceAnkh ingame (or just FaceAnkh by IRC, forum PM, etc).
Before you can log in you must set your webpass in game: Log into the game and type /webpass atitd.org password (meaning you replace password with your password).
Once you have created a web pass you log in here with "Login with OpenId" (top right).
Your open id is atitd.org/openid/YourName.
You should be sent to a page to then type in your account name and password you set in game with the webpass command. If you logged in to openid recently, it won't ask again.
If you forget your password, just re-set it in-game by using the webpass command again.
