#17663, "(CON) Miradur the Master of War"


          


Well, it was a good go I think. Second Villager, first Defender. Arial Sword/Whip specs arent all they are cracked up to be in my honest opinion, but hey it was still fun as hell choking people. Toward the end I started getting really really bad lag, thats where a few con points went, a few through the Village, then most before I had a hut. I have to go through a server upstairs that my step-dad built, and since my computer is almost as old as me since it is a handed down rebuilt piece of crap I get the lag that the server has while everyone else in the house with their fancy dells going a hundred times faster. It was annoying but I tried to just play at the wee hours of the night when no one else was on. Well, for goodbyes and flames, really not much of the latter.

Desc. Role. Score. (Long)

Your description is:
As you look, your eyes fall upon this large creature. Its long wings beat
effortlessly, holding up the body of this large avian. As you look closer
to its head you notice first its sharp beak, a mottled color of yellow and
a chip in its right side. Where the beak ends, the feathers begin, the dark
grey color darker around the beak, then slowly lightening. You glance at the
dark blue eyes of the creature, and see intelligence and intent as they look
about with a calculating gaze. You look down, and see his strong taught arms
and notice four large plates of metal, two on his forearms, and two on his
wide shoulders. The feathers stop as they reach them, and you see they are
grafted into his skin. As you look to his chest, as it rises and falls with
each breath, another plate, a round circle grafted into the skin, strangely
right over his heart. His upper body you see is supported by two large
legs, ending in clawed talons. His upper thighs are bound with metal, as are
his shins. As you look around him, you notice a jointed strip of metal, which
looks grafted to his spine. He wears an assortment of armors, and all seem
to be well cared for. As he speaks a deep, rich voice catches your ears.


Your role is:
Added Fri Apr 11 12:39:15 2003 at level 15:
Far north on the Dragon Sea there is an Island. No beaches adorn the coast line
only steep cliffs where seagulls and albatrosses nest. There is but one solitary
way to reach the top, as the cliffs are like a mountain. A stairs, that wraps all
the way around the island, a long walk to be sure. Once the top is reached, you
will see trees, and flowers of many colors. No people in sight on the ground...
But in the middle of the island you see a large tower, poking straight through
the clouds. As you venture through the majestic forest, with its ancient trees
that dwarf even the tallest giant, you see smaller spires wrapping around the
tower. Each shines silver as the sun relfects off of it. Not granite or brick
but metal, all the way around. You see a cobblestone path through the forest
that seems to lead directly to the Tower. As you venture closer you see houses, but
not just any house, they are elevated. It looks as though someone as cut one of
the large trees around where the branches started, then used the rest to build
a small cottage on top of it.

You venture still closer to the tower, and see flashes around it, as if someone
were throwing coins from it and the light was reflected off of them. But upon
closer inspection, you would see Arials, many hundereds of them. This place is
called It'Nur. Or the Arial's Island. Not many have ever ventured to this place
For it is not only secluded and hard to find, but no ship has never thought
to look so far north.


My name is Miradur Hesnick. I once lived in that place of splendor, no greed
or war, though that does not mean we did not know how to fight. Combat was a
skill all were to know, from a very young age, it was a right of passage I
suppose. At the age of fifteen one would have to know what weapons they were
to use, and how. Then if they were able to fall the weaponsmaster they were able
to do as they wished. Take a wife and have a family, or join the royal guard.
I chose the latter, for it was a great Honor, and I took Pride in what I did.
As time would have it, I began to work in the Tower as I turned sixteen. I was
one of the youngest, though most skillful with weapons. I quickly gained a high
seat in the guard, but there was always Honor, and I always upheld it. Soon
after I was named the Guard Master of the second Spire, there being for spires
around the middle Tower, I thought I was doing quite well. But then..Hell broke
loose.

Added Fri Apr 11 13:03:04 2003 at level 15:
It came one earlier morning, I was asleep in my chamber when I heard a rasp on my
door. It was a messenger, I asked what the problem was and he pointed to the scroll
in my hand. He said he had to reach the rest of the spires before day break. I
unfurled the scroll and began to read...

A ship is headed this way, they must have seen the sun reflected off of the tower,
be ready for anything. We go to the edge of the cliffs to see what they bring,
whether it be friendship, or....I dont have to tell you. Have you guards on
alert, I want all of the Guard Masters on the cliffs now! Be prepared for anything.

Captain Velkron

And so began the day that would live in the back of my mind forever...

Added Fri Apr 11 13:19:23 2003 at level 15:
As the four Guard Masters and each of their two Lieutenants arrived, the Captain
began barking out orders, everyone was in constant motion. A few of the villagers
had come down to see what was happening, but were soon disperesed by the Captain's
personal guard. We made ready at the top of the steps, barackeded it with fallen
trees and rock. All that were to greet them put on their best armors. I had a
full suit of silver chain mail, with a solid piece over my heart. It was a gift
from the Captain himself, and as he saw me wearing it a small smile came to his
face. By mid-afternon the ship was circling the island, looking for a way to scale
the cliffs. As they found the foot of the stairs the anchored and farther out, and
life boats were dropped into the water. Burly men held the ropes as others wearing
long robes of fibrant colores climbed down make-shift rope ladders. We watched
as the men began rowing the boats to the stairs.


As they got to the barakade we hailed them. The saw us and grinned, it wasnt
on of happiness, or friendship. But the malevolent grin of one who sought power
and destruction. With a flick of their leaders wrist our barakade was thrown from
its place. We stood in shock as they ventured toward us. A murderous look in
their eyes. Within seconds they were on top of us. The Captain called out to
'Kill them all!' then I saw him thrown over the cliff, his wings had been
torn from his back...I struck down the first near me, then another. They just
seemed to keep coming. Soon there were only three of us, circled by the robed
men. But they just stood there. Eyes unblinking, staring at us..Waiting. Soon
we found out why. A man a head taller then the others came into view, he wore
red robes that seemed to flicker like fire. The young guard next to me screamed
out and flew forward with a speed I did not know we had. Before he could bring his
daggers down on the tall mans chest he wrists were caught be two of the other men.
The leader of the large group as it seemed, raised the guards chin then nodded.
the others grinned and he instantly caught fire...I will never forget his screams...
He walked toward us, needless to say we backed away. There was nothing else we could
do. Soon there was no where to go. So we stood, our Pride showing through.
The guard next to me brought his spear up, right at the leaders chest. But he did
nothing. He stopped as the tip landed straight on his heart. Then lunged forward.
His eyes widened with pain and fear, then he slowly kept walking forward..It was

horrible, the syrupy blood coated the spear and he walked straight and true.
The guard next to me fainted, I felt nauseous, but stood my ground. He finished
his walk and looked at me. I colapsed, strangly asleep.

Added Fri Apr 11 13:31:02 2003 at level 15:
As I awoke I was somewhere...Not right. The entire room seemed to be moving, back
and forth, I felt sick again. I tried to move my arms and legs, but they seemed
stiff and heavy, my back also felt strange, like it wasnt bending correctly.
As I looked down in shock, I saw that I had metal, attached to my skin, in my
skin. Like ticks, only they did not feed off of me. I was stunned. One of the men
came in and gave me one of those sadistic smiles and left some food, I looked
at it at my stomach began to growl, how long had I been asleep? I felt my chest
and another piece of the strange metel was over my heart...Like my armor. I felt
sick to my stomach instantly, I found a bucket and wretched, over and over. I
thought the experience alone might kill me. Then the Leader came in and sat down.
I looked for him to wince at the wound he had been given, but he seemed like
it had never even happend. I demanded he tell me what he did, he said it was
obvious. He said it was to make me more subservient. I told him I would never
serve him, he said I would and All of the sudden I was up, walking around. He
laughed, it was as if he was using me like a puppet. With the suddeness I had
got up, I was down again. The metal was so heavy, and I was so weak. In time
that again changed.



Added Fri Apr 11 13:39:13 2003 at level 15:
The sailors and the mages as the called themselves laughed and pointed, I never
once struck back, not out of fear, but Pride. I was better than them all and I
would show them at one point. I was not blinded by my Pride, but I was not
about to stoop to their level. As I began to walk the ship, I didnt notice the
plates anymore. Their weight meant nothing to me. One day we stopped at a port
supplies needed to be refilled, and water was needed as well. It was the perfect
chance I needed. As I was ordered to help the sailors and they all grinned, knowing
how much fun they thought they were going to have...All I needed was a blade.
I learned the place was named Arkham, and there wasnt much good here. So I looked
around. I found a blade just lieing on the ground. It took to hands to hold it but
it was a sword none the less. I yelled out to the sailors who saw me with it, and
charged. I was one to their many, they believed they could win. I cut down the first
wave without effort and the others jumped out of reach, they started circling me
trying to get a better angle. I chuckled to myself. One on one is honorable, I told
them, but they just barked orders at one another, and with a suddeness they all
reached for me, I slashed and hacked, and all that remained was me standing over
a bloody carnage of bodies. I stalked back onto the ship and confronted the magi.
The looked surprised and I just smiled, they got into a ready stance, so I dashed
toward them with speed unmatched. They all fell and so I went after the Leader...



Added Fri Apr 11 13:43:05 2003 at level 15:
I found him in his cabin, he saw my entrance and my blade and just watched, I
struck out with words and he did nothing but dismiss them with his hand. I
told him to stand, let us fight I said. He grinned that old grin and my arms and legs
were no longer my own. I found myself beating...Myself. I was thrown into walls
and cabinets, and when it was over he stood over me. With quick reflexes I tripped
him, and fled. There was nothing else I could do. I ran down the main street and
vanished. I came to the Academy and hid. After a time I began wandering about and
found the guild of warriors. It was my place. I trained so that one day I would
find the Leader. And then kill him. I still held my Pride, even in defeat. I
had challenged him to Honorable Combat, but he defied that. I will learn the
ways of these warriors, and one day be his equal...

Added Fri Apr 11 16:17:53 2003 at level 19:
Miradur thinks that if he trains hard and can keep his Pride that one day he
will be able to find the Leader and challenge him once again in Honorable
battle. And after such a strenuous training be able to defy his power. Being
a Villager, you might look at the magi as the ones that killed the people on
his island, and the sailors the fighters that travel with them. He would not
usually kill the fighters, except they were helping the magi. Also where
better to train in Combat, especially against magics. I just thought I would
put this in so there wasnt any confusion on his motives.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Village:

Findlebisk: Well hell, I didnt really pick up what happend to you, I guess you and Waka were going at each others throats or something, at any rate you did an awesome job. Wish you could have stayed around longer, taught me a few things about whips and flails.

Wiglaf: You are a cool Villager, dangerous under the right circumstances, and completely insane in others. I wish I could have
fought you before the rights, just to see what I was up against. Good luck in them.

Aidamo: Hello there Captain Aidamo. You were great, through the hole baby thing, to leading the Village. Good luck, and come back soon, probably need you more than ever here pretty soon.

Alarin: You were one of the smartest players Ive been able to intereract with I think, even though you sometimes fell asleep due to your own traps. *wink* Good luck with the next.

Zylundak: New you before either of us were in the Village, you helped me out a little, not sure if I did anything for you. Then we found out we both were getting a hut and we automatically were almost inseperable, untill the end there. Amazing char, keep it up. And good luck in the Rites.

Brogg: Aw Crap! Famous last words of the terror from below. You made me pee my pants on more than one occasion, not to mention you were deadly dangerous. I just cant believe I out lived you, if only by a few days. Good luck with the next, hope to see you in the Village again.

Wakachacha: Well, tried to talk you out of deleting, but if you werent having fun, whats the point in going on? Well done, one spec the entire time is insane. This being only my second warrior past lvl 40 I dont see how you could have survived that long. At any rate, very very well done. Props for going hand to hand only.

Drahkul: I started out lvls over you then bam your a hero before I can freakin blink, you deserve it though, you know your way around, and know how to use your specs. That time in arboria was wild, cant believe I almost screwed us at first before Ramstin came. Good luck in the Rites.

Ramstin: You are a competent player, and I knew that I wasnt going to die easily with you around. You knew alot of the in game mechanics, as well as where some nice shiny stuff were. Your a powerhouse to boot. Good luck with the Rites.

Stampar: Just you and me in Whitecloak at the end, no food, a little water, and I couldnt resist. Damn it all to hell *laugh*. You are an awesome assassin, and I know you will do well in the Rites, good luck anyways, you will need it with the axe wielding giants hurtling at you.

Gieldon: You seem a little new to the Village, if not to the game. Just keep at it and dont give up, which I highly doubt you will, to stubborn *wink*. I think you will do well, and keep it up.

Nalwarf: Was just you and me as Defenders, damn we were awesome! lol Two defenders can go a long way, and we proved it. Its just you and Siagathach now, you two will be fine though. Good luck with everything.

Siagathach: Didnt get to talk with you much except there at the end. Was going to speak to you on the Village when you told me you were speaking with Kastellyn already, I felt like I was to slow, but I guess it all worked out anyways. Good luck in the Village. And post what you write to the Village eh? Be interesting to see what good ole Miradur gets.

Im probably missing a few of you...Kind of late here. Post and I will reply to your message.

Nexus: Didnt get to fight alot of you untill the end, who I did get to battle with here goes.

Quezzumpliet: Boy you can be mean, but when caught unaware (which isnt often) you are beatable. You killed me, what? Twice? Three times, everytime you gave me most, if not all of my things back, thanks for that. Good luck with Nexus, Kahosarin leaving and everything is going to make it that much difficult for you all, knowing what its like to be in Nexus I know you had it hard to begin with.

Kucerael: Heh, knew you with Khardan, and Dalitin. Then got to fight you with Faerin and now Miradur, was an eye opener thats for sure. You do well for yourself and the Nexus, you will all be really strong before I can fight any of you again, I just hope I am up for the Challenge.

Kibling: Damn it I hate that Cobra, that with your preps and your bites...Ick...You have a good form so far, I just wonder what your next air form will be...Eagle *shiver* Please no, fought enough of them with Miradur. Anyways well done, and good luck.

Tribunal: Wont you ever give up!?!?

I loved the fights, all I have to say, getting tired of typing...Bah! Loved Thrawn and Blrindelfrin, Orein was fun to beat up on when I wasnt being attacked by three other people at the same time, and I really never got to fight any none magi people in Tribunal, seems like it is going toward the Magical Protector's Spire or something. Oh well good luck to you all.

Scion: Really only one of you.

Ulzoth: You I can see becoming a lich in time. You are smart, sneaky, and damn deadly when everything goes to plan for you. Good luck, and please, once I get a new char, dont make me a zombie! Only one of me is running around damnit! lol Good luck.

Warlock:

Gherian: Heh, smart, lucky...Lucky...You got away more times than anyone I know, through pincer, cranial, lash, trip, bash, everything you got away from and it drove not only me but the ENTIRE Village up the wall. You must be doing something right though. Good lick.

Chasillia: I think you died just about as much as me. Was fun fighting you because I knew I might have a chance. No offense or anything, you are doing great.

Hmm..Who else...Just post and Ill reply.

Imms:

Sabiene: Was one Defender, then two with me...Then back to one, then three, then two, then three, now two. Heh, cant seem to get more or less. Congrats on the IMM hood and all that, I know you will be great as one. Loved the interactions while you were mortal, was fun talking with you. I thought I could ask anything and get a straight answer when you were around, and I was glad about that, cause I always seemed to need help.

Grogim: Really didnt speak with you all that much.

Thror: Ditto.

Kastellyn: Wanted to be a follower of yours, prayed a few times, then sent a note asking for a Vitality Quest...Too late I guess, first time I ever asked for one and wasnt sure when I should do it so I just waited for the last possibly moment. Im still kicking myself for it. You religon is fun to think about, and making roles for it is fun also. Good luck with the Village, Ill be back soon, maybe have another follower maybe not.


Well thats it for now, if I missed anyone, or someone wants to ask something just post. Thanks for all the Fun and see you in the Fields.

Fighting Miradur was fun, the few times we got to. What ever did happen to Dalitin and Khardan? You had pretty good forms with Dalitin, and -seemed- to be enjoying yourself. Why did you go to the other side? Catch you later.

I commented the same thing once I logged on and realized you were gone *sighs deeply* although believe me, it can be less, very much so. For a long time, I was it, and if I hadn't been Miss Hyperspaz Healer, things would have been muuuuuuuuch different back in the day.

I could tell Sabiene is a very straightforward, down to earth type.
She isn't naive, but isn't sophisticated either. Even in her old age, she's a little bit bubbleheaded, although when trouble hit she'd go hyperactive. What, me chaotic? Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Anyway, IC, Sabiene was really really hoping you'd hang around longer, and she's sorry to see you go. OOC, great char, I think you got a lot done given your (apparent?) skill level. I'd encourage you to try a defender again... perhaps not as a warrior though?

Thanks for the compliment, I try and do as well as I can with my char's guess it is working a little bit. And, yes I did get alot done, learned alot of new things, and I am a better player for it, or so I like to think. Another defender would be really fun, though Im not sure I will have the time now that finals are starting, probably later on though for sure. Your right in warriors arent the most proficient of healers, maybe some crazy assassin or a ranger would be good, herbs and field dressings would be insane. But anyways, thanks again.

Well damn, I tried to help you get to that hero rank. Guess I will have to try harder next time.

You seemed like you were doing well, though I cannot say much, I have not been around all that much here lately. Guess that second job took a little bit more time than I intended. Anyway, I like working with you, and good job and all. Good luck on your next character.

Thanks, its alright with the final title, I hadnt noticed my con was so low. It was fun with you around, only spear spec in the Village right now that I am aware of, and a good one too. Maybe next time we will see each other a little more frequently. Will be interesting as always to travel with you. Good luck. And see you in the fields (hopefully)

Just must be because I use another two handed weapon simular to them. Though the spear spec probally would have been nicer.

For you Miradur is what was written:

Sgiathach: Miradur
Sat May 17 00:00:24 2003
To: Battle
This eve, Miradur a True Defender of the Village passed on to Valhalla
to join with the others of the Village who revel in the Halls and
await the final battle.

I waited at his last. He offered these words:
'If anything is to be said of me, let it be that I was always here to
Defend, no matter the strength of the enemy'

Thanks alot Sgiathach. Really wish I could have gotten to know you better, wasnt to long before you got a hut that one of the Villagers was talking about how the Village needed a bard. Glad you got in and good luck.

I did rank up fast, but that was some time ago, I think I advanced from rank 30 to 51 in two weeks, maybe less, but thats only because I knew I would be more help in the hero ranks, and I don't believe in stopping to train skills to mastery. So if I wasn't slaying magi I was advancing.

I could tell you weren't the best tactically with a villager or a warrior, but you did well considering your past experience. Drahkul respected someone who knew how to fight the war, and you did your part well with bandages, a few times your slow head caused some problems during sieges and whatnot. Regardless, I liked travelling with you, too bad to see you go down already. I remember you and zylundak and I were given a hut at about the same time, you must have lost alot of health earlier in your life. Good luck with the next, try something else? A dark-elf berserker assassin? *chuckles*

Yes, Im alright with mages, not the best by far. And with fighter classes I am worse. One way to get better at it though, right? Live and learn. I learned alot of things from you, and liked traveling with you as well. Tried a dark elf assassin a very long time ago...Sucked. But who knows, maybe I will give it another shot. Good luck in the Rites.

Really hope you meant luck, because I don't remember getting drunk and licking someone. Those raids can get insane sometimes, with five villagers all trying to lag me in a different way. Yep, I get lucky sometimes. Skill cannot get you through every situation, but a little luck can. I've heard all the grumbling from the villagers about how lucky I am. Maybe villagers are just unlucky? As for interactions, limited as they were, you were a good opponent. Not necessarily deadly to me, but a constant. You tried, and that is always something I like in my enemies. A tip for the future. If you raid, and you are very wounded, don't sit around expecting your cabal mates to occupy the defenders, get the hell out, come back later. Got you about four times like that. Just flee, throw a cone to finish you, and go back to defending. Luck on the next, stay out of forests.

Heh, yea I meant to say Luck. And yes, we were probably very unlucky as well. That time when you coned me then a round later the sorceress coned me so I ran. I had around 10 hp left. I wasnt going to be able to go back through the sorceress to get out so I just used a field dressing then sat down, right when I saw Someone has arrived. I knew I was screwed. Had there been another option I would have taken it. Swords and whips arent very useful against mages, best against fighter classes I have found. What do you mean stay out of forests? Im really confused. Good luck with Gherian.

Sorry about that,

Wish I could have learned with you, but eight lvl max sucks. Well maybe my next Villager will be that high sooner than later, then I can cash in a rain check or something like that. Over all well done, I remember you saying over cb "I start stalking so-and-so now." Then later either Bah, or So-and-so dead. Heh, anyways have fun Ill be coming back with another.

Thank you for the compliment, you did a good job as a defender, and believe me, I know how hard it can be, and also how much you want to tell people to "find their own bandages." Sometimes, the demands can be quite tough on you defenders. You did great work though, and I'm sorry to see this death announcement. What has been happening to battle lately? Good work though, luck on the next!

It wasnt as much the "get your own damn bandages" more of the, I have no mana and no bandages, wait awhile. Not in those exact words of course. Thanks for your compliment. It was a ride thats for sure, being able to get away from two eagles thanks souly to field dressings and choke is just plain funny. AS with the Village, no freaking clue. I was trying to get a Vitality Quest in there, but like Brogg I waited to long, being it my first try for one ever. See you later.

My lord all my good friends are leaving you definantly had my respect
souly for being one hell of an opponent in our duals. I liked you from the start and after finding out that you and I spent so much time
training we were one hell of a combo, twin arials is just too sick.
I really would like to meet up with you another time ic, I loved the
char, role and fighting alike. Really going to miss you saving my ass
with field dressing.

Thanks alot, knowing how much you trained, and me doing I think 3/4 of what you did, being a good opponent just rocks. You are an awesome Villager, and I think you will give them hell in the Rites. The twin arial thing was funny, both getting in at about the same time. Then two arial assassins right after us. Good luck with everything, who knows maybe we will get to duel again before long.

*Quezzumpliet: Boy you can be mean, but when caught unaware (which isnt often) you are beatable. You killed me, what? Twice? Three times, everytime you gave me most, if not all of my things back, thanks for that. Good luck with Nexus, Kahosarin leaving and everything is going to make it that much difficult for you all, knowing what its like to be in Nexus I know you had it hard to begin with*

Overall I liked Miradur more than most Villagers, hence my perpencity to return as much as I could. Minus one or two nicer items if you had them. Lets see, I slew you three times, Once with Kucerael as we raided for the Head, once on my own, and the last time I assassinated you in Galadon when you were helping wakachacha fight that croc tribunal, sorry you lost most of your clothes in that one but what can you do with the rampent noob looting.

Having no Imm sucks and none of the others have stepped up to do anything so far. Lord knows we need a new Lord Elder, as Erinphalis is MIA and frankly even if he does come back he should lose leadership for being gone this long, its rediculous. Overall things could be better.

Yea, having three hero shifters in Nexus, being attacked by Kahosarin with one, and deleting the other two because of lack of interest, you guys do what you can with what you have, and that deserves some respect. Being on the other side of the line in the war makes me see how the past bickering OOC on ganking I think isnt all that rampant as most people make it out to be. I only remember being getting the #### beat out of me with three or more players once on eastern, the rest of the time ganking came from raids and defending the Village which is fine with me it being a war and all. Once again, you made this char barebly when fighting Nexus, giving back things is something that makes it possible to jump right back in. Keep it up, maybe you will will be the New Lord Elder, get your name in the Library part of the Rift.

Geez I am sorry about that, there were so many Applicants and only one of me. I tried to talk with you once but you were always seemed like you were under heavy fire, I tried to help once or twice, I think the last time I saw you being attacked was in the weald, and I gave you one dressing then my mana was out from helping the Villagers in Galadon. Just keep it up, new commander coming. That will make it much easier to get in.

Miradur gasps and falls unconscious.

Sorry about all the ganging, I did try and fight you solo a bunch of times, but as you could see I was rather limited in my skill choice. Roll another Villager, as soon as I'm done with Mortug I'm gonna try one, maybe we can gank together

See you around

Props for you Mortug, you did what a trapper thief is supposed to do, at least in my eyes. It was annoying as hell through, coming back from a big fight and instantly falling asleep at the breach, get robbed then either you would try and attack me alone, or get a scion or somebody that would really dislike me. All in all you are doing great. But this next Villager might prove a little much for you *wink* thanks for all of the fun times.

Well Well I didn't think your con was so low. I grew to like you, and really enjoyed watching you. I laughed many times when I saw you choke someone out. I was waiting for the day when it would work out that you would choke that bird out on eastern; while I was with you watching, so I could just get rid of the bird right after the choke. But well the timing was never right. I was also glad that we kind became friends at the end; that is to say I saw you as a respected friend, not sure about how you saw me. I always had a feeling you might still hold those two past meetings against me, and I wouldn't blame you at all. With that in mind I was always very careful when I watched you from time to time. Well anyways, best of luck and I hoped you like walking into a room in the village and seeing some of my work right there during a raid. See you around.

- Jegrael

Yea, now that I read this I am kicking myself in the rear end. You were amazing, both in rp and pk. The clover thing is something that I would never have thought about, and you deserve alot of credit. There at the end when you stalked Kibling in the Village, then I died and came back and saw the clover next to the cobra's corpse I started laugh, then you would tip your hat and tell me to ask for help when it was needed. I was sore the first few times we met, but afterwords I was glad you were around. That time I DID actually choke the osprey on eastern, its only two hours, but I was in the middle of switching to my swords when






I got that much lag, and it didnt know what was happening, then all the sudden An osprey flaps its wings and is gone. I was the maddest mother....Yea lag was what was killing me in the end. But keep it up, soon enough someone will notice you. Glad you are around makes the mud a better game.
