I heard a noise and set down my basket. Through the hole was a sight: feet of hooves and boots mashed the flowers flat into the grass and clover and dirt. |
Two great armies stood on that field of wildflowers. One was in red with cloaks fluttering and swords shining. The troops stood side by side in proper regiments with perfect clean red uniforms and shining silver buckles and red hats. They held red muskets with bayonets like rows of toothpicks. The other army wore bedra... |
A horn blew. On a grand stallion among the red army sat the Queen. Her shining blond hair blew back from her shoulders in the soft gusts of evening wind. Her uniform shone with shiny spangles and glittering buttons. Wind rippled the cockade of her great plumed hat. She drew her sword and paused. Then she ordered her me... |
With rank upon rank they did, the first ranks bending on knee to fire as the second rank loaded and the third waited their turn. |
The early ranks of the mad and the green were felled by the Queen’s bullets. The insane green horde pushed forward over the fallen bodies of comrades and foes. War was met and the sounds of horrible battle echoed over the field. Those perfect ranks were nothing more than fodder for the chaotic and maddening ranks of th... |
I staggered forward through the hole between the stones. My basket lay forgotten on the cobblestones. At my feet was a man dressed in red, lovelier than any man can be, dying, his lifeblood pouring out on to the grass. I put my fingers to his wound as blood poured over my hands. He died and I cried: “STOP!” |
The Queen of the Faeries gazed at me with her purple shining eyes. For a moment, silence. No sounds of combat, no attacks, no muskets fired at close range with ear-splitting cracks in the air. I knew only the Faerie Queen and her terrible wrath. |
Then they were gone, every one of them. The fairy battle disappeared. They left only crumpled flowers and the occasional strange discoloration in the grass. The sounds of battle hung in the air for only a moment and then they, too, where whisked off to the land of Faerie. |
There was nothing, then. Nothing but my basket and a hole in a wall. And the knowledge of faerie, warring, somewhere beyond a veil. |

Codependency: Getting What You Truly Want Is Scary |
When you have enmeshed yourself in another person to the extent that you lose a major part of your identity, it can be hard to imagine life without that person. Even if that person is clearly not for you in terms of compatibility, letting go can be painful. So it is with a number of my clients at present who are all st... |
As stated, recovery from a break up and or narcissist abuse is scary but is a process that has a beginning, a middle and an end. It is extremely important to realise that the length of the process will depend very much on the individual and how soon they are willing to start it. Before this, there is an extremely high ... |
A number of my clients are in this phase at present and times are tough for them. As a therapist, I am helping them to see that the very process mentioned above is functional and essential for recovery. It is hard for some of them to ever imagine they will be ready for this. Let’s take a look at what a healing process ... |
Start To Think Instead Of Feel |
At the start of the process, feeling and emotion take over. We are paralysed with self doubt, romanticising the ex mixed with a healthy dose of self pity. It is important to feel and to recognise that these feelings are part of the process but listening too much will stop us moving forward. I have known clients who hav... |
Answer The Important Questions |
Once you can start to think rationally, then you can start to ask yourself key questions that will help you move on and learn from the experience. These could look like : |
1. Why did I allow myself to stay in this relationship for so long ? |
2. What were my expectations going into the relationship? |
3. Why did I not ask for my needs to be met? |
4. Why did I put this person on a pedestal? |
5. What was the cause of the break up? |
6. What are the real advantages for me being out of the relationship? |
7. What can I learn from this to move forward? |
8. What do I want for me now? |
9. What do I need to get there? |
10. What is stopping me getting there? |
These ten questions are in my view a very functional grounding for assessing a bad relationship and help to ensure that the same pattern does not repeat itself. In terms of codependency, question 2 is especially relevant. Many men go into a relationship hoping and expecting to find a mother substitute who will take car... |
Restore And Replace |
Coming out of a relationship of such emotional magnitude can feel like a huge loss in our minds. Even if logically, we know that the ex was not for us, there is often still an emotional attachment as this person was part of the fabric of our lives. In fact, in some cases, was the fabric. Recognising this loss is valid ... |

We community managers are often asked for statistics in discussion threads or feedback forms. Several players want to know which skills they should have with their character, or which cities are favoured by Tibia players, and many many other things. For this reason, we have asked the product management if they could sh... |
Countries of Tibia Players |
You might remember our recent poll Where are you from?. In this poll, the top five countries that Tibia players come from were: Brazil, Poland, Mexico, Sweden and the United States. According to this poll, Brazilians and Polish players form about 50 % of the Tibia community. |
According to the account registrations, the results of this poll were pretty representative: On May 16th, 2009 there were about 1.3 million registered Tibia accounts, of which 485,778 were registered to Brazil, 296,935 to Poland, 99,802 to Mexico, 54,446 to Sweden, and 54,221 to the United States. So the top 5 countrie... |
About 1.15 million of these accounts are registered to male players. That means that 88.5 % of all Tibia players are male. It is interesting to see whether this is represented by the gender distribution of ingame characters. There are currently 6.54 million characters altogether, of which 5.38 million are male and 1.16... |
Who knows if this is really the truth, though? Looking at the age of Tibia players according to the account registration, we can see that many players do not enter correct data there. For example, 9,643 players said that they were born in 1901, and 2,124 players claim to be only five years old. While it is indeed possi... |

Actively Played Accounts |
There are 2.6 million Tibia accounts altogether, which means that there are over one million unregistered Tibia accounts of which we hardly have any data. Many of these accounts are not actively played, though. Many people create an account and then never log in. Also some registered accounts are not actively played an... |
Now that we know a bit already about who is part of the Tibia community, let's have a closer look at some ingame statistics. The average level of all characters in Tibia is approximately 16.5, which is a bit lower than one would expect. This low average level can easily be explained, though. Many characters are created... |
Only 61,021 characters have reached the magic goal of level 100 or above so far. Only 2,582 of these characters have already reached level 200 or above, and just 57 characters level 300 or above. Currently, there are merely 3 characters in Tibia that are already above level 400. |
Which vocation does a typical Tibia player favour? There are about 1.6 million knights in Tibia, of which only about 83,000 are promoted. 1.2 million characters are sorcerers, of which 68,000 are master sorcerers. There are approximately 1.1 million paladins, of which about 60,000 are royal paladins, and only about 1 m... |
Another interesting number is the average skill development of the different vocations: |
For druids and sorcerers mainly the magic skill is important. As you can see in the chart, the average magic level development of sorcerers and druids is pretty equal. Druids seem to develop their magic level a bit faster than sorcerers, which might be explained by their gaming style. The average shielding skill of sor... |

For paladins, pretty much all skills play a role, so you can see the average skill development of all skills for paladins in the next chart. A paladin's average magic level hardly passes the level 20 line. This does not mean that there are no paladins with a higher magic level. There are of course peak values and many ... |

For knights, as melee fighters, the shielding skill and the weapon skills, such as axe fighting, club fighting and sword fighting are important. As you can see in the chart, all three weapon skills and shielding pretty much develop with the same speed. On average, a level 100 knight has a magic level of 6, a shielding ... |

Where do all these brave warriors and adventurers live? What is the population of the Tibian cities? |
Approximately 1.7 million characters do not even have a vocation yet, so practically speaking, those would be the inhabitants of Rookgaard. Thais is the most popular city with about 1.8 million inhabitants. Carlin has 1.4 million inhabitants. Only about 150,000 characters stay in Kazordoon, making this the least popula... |
Darashia is the most popular city in a premium area, with about 67,000 inhabitants, closely followed by Edron, with about 56,000 inhabitants. 19,000 Tibians have already moved to the youngest city in Tibia, Yalahar, and merely about 4,000 adventurers favour the cold and rough climate of Svargrond. |
1. Thais: 1,758,998 inhabitants |
2. Rookgaard: 1,698,125 inhabitants |
3. Carlin: 1,359,321 inhabitants |
4. Venore: 1,032,443 inhabitants |
5. Ab'Dendrie: 319,129 inhabitants |
6. Kazordoon: 150,941 inhabitants |
