Rise and shine Knights!

Grab your favorite caffeinated beverage and take a look at some of the changes and new additions you’ll find in the game:

'''[[Starlight Cradle]] levels can be found in T2 and T3.
* These levels are part of normal gate rotation, not a new mission set.
* These levels may contain a drowsy [[Sloom]], the fearsome [[Sloombargo]], and other slimes.
* You may also stumble across some optional danger rooms that will give you a run for your money.
* Gates will be cycled after release so that some starlight cradle levels are immediately available.
* [[Zee Core|Zee cores]] will now drop from these levels and can be used in the crafting of some new gear (see below).

'''Reintroduction of the “[[sleep]]” status.
* This has been reworked.
* Sleep will render a victim completely unresponsive until woken.
* Because sleep can be rejuvenating, you may notice a small (and limited) heal upon waking up.
* If you find yourself asleep and vulnerable, look to a party member to wake you up with “gentle” poke of a bullet or blade.
* [[Pickup|Remedy]] should wake you from sleep. Think of it as a dose of caffeine.
* After sleep you will acquire an 'alert' status that protects you from sleep for a few moments.

'''New Helms and Armor
* [[Padded Demo Helm]]
* [[Padded Demo Suit]]
* [[Padded Hunting Cap]]
* [[Padded Hunting Coat]]
* [[Quilted Demo Helm]]
* [[Quilted Demo Suit]]
* [[Quilted Hunting Cap]]
* [[Quilted Hunting Coat]]
* [[Starlit Demo Helm]]

'''New Weapons
* [[Advanced Cautery Sword]]
* [[Amputator]]
* [[Slumber Smogger]]
* [[Slumber Smogger Mk II]]
* [[Slumber Squall]]
* [[Torpor Tantrum]]

'''Knight Statues are now available.
* If [[Bechamel]] is installed in a guild, she will now sell knight statues of knights for energy. When in Haven, Bechamel will not offer to sell statues.
* Statues are a furniture item depicting your knight wearing what you wore when you purchased it.
* There are multiple sizes of statues to purchase.
* Warning: Review all parts of the statute carefully in the preview window. There are no refunds for mistaken wardrobe choices or refunds if a particular accessory or aura does not display correctly.
* A guild may only have 8 statues placed in their hall at any given time.
* You may need to ‘publish’ your guild hall to get the new option from Bechamel.

'''Additional Changes:

* Guild officers and above can sell materials in their treasury to birdsong for half the normal price. This should help guilds clear unwanted items from their inventory.

* In [[Lockdown]], the Guardian’s shield now has more health.

* A few changes to the chat filter to remove ‘Gay’ and ‘muff’. Be aware that it is still against the Terms of Service to use any of these words in a derogatory fashion and we will take action accordingly.

* Fixed some issues with placing furniture near the entrance of a guild hall.

* Fixed a small graphics glitch in [[Firestorm Citadel]], Charred Court.
