Editing Ardoris (section)

==Trivia==
*Ardoris, the waterfront city on the main continent filled with canals and framed by two opposing castles, will now be available to players.<ref>[https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=43556#more-43556 Release 9 Instruction]</ref>
*The architecture of Ardoris is based on the canals of Venice.
*A series of row houses were sold in the [[Add-On Store]] based on Ardoris' architecture. These included a [[Blue Tile Roof 2-Story Row House|2-story]], [[Blue Tile Roof 3-Story Row House|3-story]], and [[Blue Tile Roof 4-Story Row House|4-story Blue Tile Roof Row House]].
*The culture of Ardoris is based on feudal Japan, ruled by a shogunate with a strong caste system.
*In [[Release 37]], the visuals for Ardoris was polished and made more distinct from the rest of the game. This included adding an [https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/21298 Asian-themed asset pack] for Unity. Over the course of Release 37 and Release 38, those assets (along with the new character assets) will be propagated throughout the Perennial Coast region to give that entire region its own distinct visual identity.<ref>[[Update of the Avatar]] [https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=66316 #206 - 2016.12.09: Ardoris Polish]</ref>
*Ardoris Plague: A horrific plague hit the town of Ardoris and devastated the population there. Only a fraction of the humans and animals survived. Even the gondoliers, whose constitutions were the hardiest, were not immune. Please refrain from civic disorder while Siranto and Khasi work towards recruiting the guards that were lost. In all seriousness we had to significantly reduce the NPC population for performance reasons.<ref>[https://sotawiki.net/sota/Release_43 Release 43]</ref>
