  Shard History   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Most of Shard was in ruin by the time the Dragon Priests had finished plundering it and moved on, heading northwest around the Dragon Spine Mountains to crush The Crossing and Riverhaven in their grip.
Shard rests in the center of the Lake of Tears, so named for it is said that the forest to the northeast of it is where Sorril fled her father, and where she returned to Fade.
Shard was also a base for the Bards after the war of the Dragon Priests, a place where they first began to retrain the lost art of their guild, and where some of that art that yet remains lost may still be recovered.

 "Shard"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The "Shard" was the first object spotted by Hoagland on frame LO-III-84M.
Although no cross-confirming images of the "Shard" have been found, it's vicinity to the "Tower", which has been cross-confirmed, is a factor favoring it's existence as a "real" object.
While this cannot be totally discounted, the absence of any "spray" around the "Shard's" sharply defined edges work against this explanation.

 X-Men Character Bios: Shard
Shard was transformed into an 'Emplate herself, which should have meant her death, but her brother Bishop risked everything and sold himself to Stark-Fujikawa for a year, in exchange for a procedure that would transfer Shard's mind into a holographic program.
However, Forge was able to repair the module, and after a battle with the Adversary, in which it appeared that she had been destroyed, she gained true sentience and life, and was no longer bound to a holo-projector, having become a photon-based lifeform.
Shard then re-formatted herself back into energy and jumped into Bishop, who had no choice but to absorb and rechannel her back at their enemy.

 Terra Nova: What's in a Shard?
At last year's E3 I was assured by some of the eldest statesmen in MMOGdom that the shard phenomenon has little to do with technical limitations and much to do with the cost of content creation, which rises quickly on a per-player basis as the number of shards goes down.
One answer is that a single shard or game universe (as I personally I would define a shard as an instance of game universe with different shards being parallel game universes) makes it simpler to provide global dynamic ingame content then several parallel shards.
The problem is that that type of dynamic content is limited, it is complex (it has to be attractive but at the same time cannot be exploited) and it is difficult to judge the impact of the system in the customer population before deploying it.

We have received the Unity Shard dBase from Digital Brothers, along with many other files and dBases, in order to start our testing to determine if it will be practical to transfer the Unity shard to U.S. operations.

There is no "character transfer" process across shards on Horizons, therefore we will have to manually modify dBases on this end to create your new character.
