Diary of a Mad Captain

Diary of a Mad Captain
So, there I was, sitting at the bar in the Perplexed Otter. I was enjoying a pint of ale when the scent of sea air filled the room. I peer over my shoulder and I had seen a tall, gaunt man with a crazed gleam in his eyes. He caught me spying and said to me "Yarrr! I see you faerie! Would you care to hear a tale of the sRead More...

Hair woes

Llanathris — Sat, 28 Jun 2014 01:51:30 +0100

I'm really regretting not getting my hair cut while I was still in Lasler. I've tromped all over Sigil and have yet to find anyone who's heard of scissors. There's nothing more embarrassing than sneaking up to feed on a bit of tasty unsuspecting prey and getting a mouthful of your own dandruff in the process.

Maybe I'll just hack at it with this nifty silver dagger. Gods know my mace won't do the job.

Tone — Wed, 07 May 2014 03:08:47 +0100

I am slowly getting towards my first class goal of completing every single skill and spell available to me. As it stands skills are completely and level 60 has been reached. Started working on my spells and it is a slow process but they are coming along as well. For those wondering I am an Ogre Ranger.

Hiss-Out With Yer Wings Out

Tinywing — Sat, 19 Apr 2014 02:17:41 +0100

What don't kill ya make ya more strong. If axe breaks then use sword or spear. If weapon breaks use yer claws. If claws break lash tail and if tail breaks then thrash torso and hiss loudly; no limbs no tail... maybe no head if ya lucky.

Ya is a lizard so all grow back.

When pumped bash with shield; breathe fire use all mana. Sweep when target blind (or not); no matter; target go dead and black; ready for snack.

Kharmha's Take on Recent Events

Kharmha — Fri, 18 Apr 2014 16:06:09 +0100

This is my personal take on the recent events happening in materia magica.

About the whole fiasco over Omnis and Alyce, this should never have happened, especialy his having a 250 imm. 'IF' Omnis wants to both do imm things and play the game at the same time he should either move alyce to the test/dev server to play there (not bothering or affecting the player base, or he should have Omnis only on the test/dev server, that way he cant affect anything happening to alyce and his other moRead More...

Lasler.

Gearheart — Fri, 25 Oct 2013 03:46:45 +0100

I finally arrived at my destination today, the small town of Lasler. Leaving my laboratory was difficult, but, if I am to expand my horizons, I must start to explore the wider world beyond. The People of this small town are very helpful. I made inroads with the local population, helping deliver some unreturned items belonging to some local clerics. Along the road to the village proper, I met with a number of misfortunate travelers, who seem to have been troubled by the predations of a lRead More...

Mistakes Made, Lessons Learned

Erdric — Mon, 26 Aug 2013 07:19:28 +0100

It was inevitable. Mistakes were bound to be made, and the more costly the mistake, the more tangent the lesson. Some lessons will never be forgotten.

It seems that in my avid studies of both the holy warrior and the scholar, I neglected to learn such subtle life skills as how to manage the items and equipment I've amassed in my travels. Already I've lost books containing many spells that took hours to scribe, bags of magical reagents, and an enchanted cloak that made me invisible, a mRead More...

An Uphill Climb

Erdric — Tue, 20 Aug 2013 02:40:27 +0100

It has been some days since my first entry into this journal. My time has been filled with so many new experiences that I scarcely find myself with some time to simply sit down and reflect on my adventures.

Since undertaking the studies of the Wizard, I find that my progress is much slower. My time spent studying the ways of the Paladin seemed easy, almost carefree, by comparison. Now, between exploring the unknown, accepting jobs for local lords and ladies, and keeping up with my studRead More...

Entry One: Better Late Than Never

Erdric — Tue, 13 Aug 2013 22:10:12 +0100

Though my journey is not new, my decision to make a record of it is. My name is Erdric, and I am a dragon warrior.

I began my life as a paladin. I learned a variety of weapon techniques, as well as a few useful spells to heal myself or my companions, or deliver my holy wrath upon my enemies. It was a good path, filled with challenges to overcome.

From the beginning I traveled with my companion Katrena. Together we roamed the land in search of fame, fortune and personal growth. WRead More...

Faction Points and Vand. Trunk

Lyneirari — Tue, 16 Jul 2013 21:26:37 +0100

I feel that that faction points earning and trunk selling is a great idea, because I started working toward getting all the fp I needed to be able to purchase a trunk for 25k in quest points. Except some how i have been getting lucky and get a trunk from the QM.
