There's been some interesting developments in the last hour, the Elysium team just released this announcement.
https://www.reddit.com/r/ElysiumProject ... er_stress/Here's some encouraging excerpts from it,
The PvP realm hosting the Nostalrius character database will be named “Nostalrius PvP” exactly as you knew it from the previous realm. The same goes for the PvE realm, that will be named “Nostalrius PvE”.
The last realm, that will be running the beloved Nostalrius core, and offering a completely fresh start, will be named in memory of the, now defunct, realm: Elysium PvP.
There are significant reasons to launch the Nostalrius PvP realm before the fresh realm. The Nostalrius PvP server is the most significant aspect of this revival. A huge part of our success will be in the result of being able to bring your characters back. This will only add to the reputation and hype of the project, lending more respect and population.
There will only be a 3-4 week period between Nostalrius PvP and the fresh realm.
