Dungeons & Dragons Online is free-to-play, and that declaration should be all you need to get yourself tangled up in the massively-multiplayer online role-playing game. If priceless extravagance isn’t your cup of tea, though, then maybe Web of Chaos, the game’s 13th update, is.

Today, Turbine has released the first screenshots of Update 13: Web of Chaos, a prequel to the upcoming Menace of the Underdark expansion. Web of Chaos will open up three new quests, veteran status (the ability to start at level 7 as purchased through the game’s dedicated store), two new items, and three new additions to the DDO Store as detailed below the screenshots.

“3 New Free Quests

• The Lords of Dust: The Silver Flame must now contend with an uprising cult! Controlled by the Rakshasas, the cult of the Lords of Dust have one priority – free the ancient demons trapped in Khyber.

• Servants of the Overlord: Venture deep down into Khyber and fight resistance as you attempt to thwart the Rakshasas from freeing the imprisoned “Spinner of Shadows”!

• The Spinner of Shadows: Engage in an ambitious battle as you fight to hold off the release of the Spinner of Shadows! Though beware of thinking your task is over, for a menacing journey awaits.

Veteran Status (7)

• Now start your new character at level 7 and gain a head start! Earn through favor or purchase in the DDO Store.

New Items

• Use the Omnispell Dust and Omnispell Stone in place of the material component of any magic spell. Free up inventory space!

New to the DDO Store

• Cloak of Resistance – Aid yourself in the defense of magic attacks and traps

• Necklace of Protection – Increase your armor class by 1

• +1 Elemental Touch Weapons – A full suite of level 1 weapons are now available”
