Welcome!
This help site is for players of the online game, Shilla. Shilla is an old text-based RPG that has its roots in the 90's and ultimately died in 2008. The game was brought back from the dead once in 2010. Since 2019, Shilla is currently up and running again under new ownership and leadership. They have tried to recreate the game from where it was at in 2008, while adding their own changes here and there in hopes of making Shilla a more enjoyable game. Whether you are a new player or a returning veteran, the hope is that this helpsite can provide all the information you need to play the game.
As it is a wiki page, any content can be updated in real time to reflect changes. All you need to do is join the site on the left side, and you can start making pages and/or update existing ones.
Make sure you look at Top Bar Description and Guides for how to navigate the wiki and how to play Shilla, if you aren't familiar from before, or a brand new player entirely to the game.
If you are looking for a specific item, or topic, or whatever… in game, type in chat "/wiki [name]" and search results will come up that hopefully can help you as well.
Enjoy!

I aimed to get a post updated before Halloween, so this definitely counts.
Yeah, Bp is correct, my heart is focused on many other things at the moment. Playing the Parallel Kingdom clone, Parallel Echoes, that has been out since June. PK was the game that had my heart after Old Shilla died in 2008, and I played that one for over six years until it too died. So to finally see someone successfully recreate the game is a pull I was unable to resist. I wouldn’t go so far as to say I’ll never return to Shilla, seeing BnB back regularly will likely be enough to make me pop in for a hi from time to time.
Mostly, I’m working on becoming a special education teacher, substitute teaching enough to pay the bills, and using the rest of my small free time watching sports.
I continue to read the new messages that appear on discord, and BP and I are pretty good about checking in with each other monthly at least.
So I’ll see you when I see ya.
and Happy Hunting until then!

I finally hit my 100 QT exp goal, and I trained it. Didn't really feel like I accomplished anything with the Zoo scaling, so I feel good about giving it up now.
By the end of the year I have some wiki goals in mind:
- Finetune some minor pages that got missed from my first editing phase this summer. Nothing drastic, but I took notes and these things need updating.
- Get an accurate bounty table for the entire game. I should have an idea of what is what, I just need to match up patterns and id numbers. This will probably be my big project.
- Maybe write more about the Animal Holdings since I have all the large keys.
- Get a end of year Wall Score page.
After that, I just have to say no to Shilla.
I'm not going to cover any more areas(scaling or regular), I'm not going to feed into Buggy's thoughts. He could code and write in 10 minutes things that a player would take months to do, and at some point I just need to walk away for my own sanity. It just isn't worth it anymore to me. So I'll do the things I mentioned, when I get the time, and at the end of the year I'll probably firewall block Shilla and maybe the wiki, and just try to move on with my life the best way I know how.

I played in 2001-2008 under the name Bizarro-Phoenix aka Bp. I enjoyed gathering information and this is how this site came into existence. I helped with the recreation of this version to some extent, but I do not play on a daily basis. I have a full time job, full time college, a wife and 4 animals so I don't have the time to play like I used to. This helpsite has stayed alive longer than any version of Shilla has, and as long as it is free to me, I will continue to do so. |

I started playing around 2003 until the Big Crash in early Sept 2008. Bp and I had already been working on this wiki for over a year when that occurred. When Mediathrall started working Redemption we started a wiki for that, archiving this one as a memorial of sorts, never thinking it would be used again. I had moved on to other games at that point, Parallel Kingdoms until it died in 2016, and am currently helping in the closed beta test of it's remake, Parallel Origins. Looking forward to picking up where I left off with Shilla: Fall of the Warlock! |

Note: I would appreciate any changes to pages to include the description of what we are changing. It helps me and others identify what exactly happened in case we need to double check, or just to catch our attention on anything new. It's not mandatory of course, but I just like to see what people are doing.
