A call went out last night that just outside the gargoyal city, was a large gathering of searing, burning gargoyals and large gargoyal enforcers.Kaatya and Hudson went to investigate. Upon thier arrival they were set upon by many of these unfriendly gargoyals.Lucky for them both many adventures were already there. The gargoyal enforcers were very large and unbardable,but surcomed to Kaatya's "Frostbriging bow".Westayed about an hour fighting these.The entrance to gargoyal city remains blocked.We found no more clues to the Jonathon or solunite quest though.

2 new books have been found in the tents of the enslaved gargoyals just insdie the passage from honor shrine ish. ALSO THE ENTRANCE TO GRAGOYAL CITY IS NOW BLOCKED.I would have posted for all to see but it would not let me post in tavern slot or another place. so if someone can cut and paste this info for all to see?? Also seems many adventures, gather nightly in Serpants Hold to go exploring , in hopes of finding more clues.Believe they go about 8:30 pm est

It appears that the word travels much faster than I originally anticipated. During a policy discussion a few days ago we determined that faction sigil purple items would be now legal to buy, sell and own. This decision was made simply because these items can now be made without the use of an exploit. Because no exploit is involved we no longer saw the need to police these items. We are currently in the process of updating all our documents regarding these items and we appreciate your patience while we do so. I apologize I was unable to get this word out to all of you prior to the GMs enforcing this new policy. Thank you, Platinum Customer Service Manager EA Customer Support

Seems that Jonahton has escaped,he was held in Hyloth by Gargoyals. his house and lab have been found,as have 2 ships he used.His house is in serpanants Hold just south east of the forge, the boats:p 1 is is serpants hold docks , a book in it hold. .The ship that he made it to moonglow is at the docks, but has been sunk. New information has been uncovered in a book in the Gargoyal city.This book is in the inn in the south west corner of the city.It gives account from an helper of Jonahtons,a"Samuel Jackson." They is rumor that another book exsists in montor, but I have not been able to find it.Also in the abyss the runes in the middle of lave pit are glowing but take you now where.They apppear to match the runes on the floor of Jonahtons lab.

the book out side the cage has been rewritten, it provide no clue,there is a book in the royal guard barracks in brit castle. Also a book in jonathon's house in serps hold titled"forgotten cities" The quest is now to find his lab, which is rumored to be ina remote area out side a city.I have just checked Montor near chaos gate, found nothing.

As the Guardians gathered for thier weekly meeting, at olympus.The dorrs burst open the a resounding crash!!!! Who should walk in ranting like a mad man, none other that Capt.Quackenbush..........the cursed Capt of the Pride.he began shoutting that he came to advendge his crew.He challeged any who face him.After calling us a few obsence names.the Praetorian Malk. excepted his challange and quicky dispatched his soul to Hades.A book for the cure was found upon his body.it stated that his body must be burned and the ashes mixed with holy water from the shrine of spirtuality.Grurdians were dispatched to get the waters needed while his body was reduced to ashes.A cloth was soaked in the mixture of water and ashes and apppiled to the Emperor. After a few , what seemed like hours, the Emperor's tremors ceased and it seems the cure has brought him back to us.

YES There is a book outside the cage, but it has been erased, the gods are trying to have it rewriten.atleast that what the book reads now.

All the ore piles have been filled.It seems jonathon has been kidnapped.Last night or early this morning, a gate opened to Lord British's castle, upon going to the throne room.There was a miner,wearing a torn apron with jonathon's name on it.He said he found it.Rumor was it was found on the 4th level of Hyloth.Being the invesigative fool I am .I went and checked.Found only other citizens there.Upon returning to ore piles, Creatures that exsist only in the power core ,had spawned, not many but a few( quagemires etc.)Is this a clue??Has jonathon been taken my evil mages??

Travel well my friend perhaps some day some day you can return to us. STRENGTH and HONOR

shadow is filled, when it hit 60k about 10 shadow elems spawned

aye had a great time

yes how did the 3 Founders meet?? Hudson The other two founders, Sir Lags A Lot and Yukon Bob are real world friends who live in the outskirts of Cleveland Ohio. They were playing the game in the evenings and I had saw them first at the Provisioners shop in Trinsic and then later on several occassions either at the Healers or coming from the Healers. General conversation over "HOW TO DO" something occured in the provisioners....dont quite remember what it was but I belive it was over selling backpacks and junk.....you could only sell 5 items at a time to a NPC Vendor back then and sometimes they would run out of gold.....which stunk and meant you had to travel around to other vendors to see if they would buy your stuff. Well....we seemed to have the same "play times" and started to venture out together and first found REZZ POINT (place South of Trinsic on cost) that had alot of animals and RED Grizzlies and the occassional Orc and Troll or Ettin. Those were mega monsters back then....and the RED GRIZZLIES were nasty and usually chased everyone away ehhehe. It was a challenge back then to be able to kill an animal first before the others could. BANDAIDS....DID NOT WORK in early days....only magic really did any good healing or potion pots. An amazing sight was one time a SHIP came up on that point.....everyone there was in awe.........Holy Cow that guy has a SHIP!!!! Murderers would also recall or gate in and in seconds kill everyone and loot them dry.....trashtalking all the time. Original years PKs were all kEWlDoods.....then came roleplaying murderers for about 2 yrs then it all dropped off and now powergamers and KewWLDoodS again make up the PK population mostly. The greatest weapon of a PK or Murderer then was the HEAVY CROSSBOW hehehe. It was a great time actually when the Roleplaying Murderers would come....they would declare orders for you to leave or you would KNOW they were coming by seeing thier names come on screen.....hehehe and you knew what kind of player they were.......Murderer (RPer) or PK (keWldood idiot). One of the greatest PKs who became a great Murderer was Xtasy (spelling that wrong I think) and she was a challenge.......none of us ever defeated her but she never did kill me....I always would escape or actually talk to her and roleplay out of the combat event.......was a great time then. I became good friends with her and back then most of the PK/Murderers were at the top end of all the skills (they would train against each other and not worrying about being red meant they would skill gain FAST) In those early days too.....if you died you LOST SKILLS so most of us couldnt commit a ton of time to gaming and skill gain was TOO valuable to gamble with losing. Well through good interaction I actually became known to the Murderer community and would get "more" time for my group to "interact" prior to any combat. That process and how it related to the game engine and overall experience added to the adventuring that Lags, Bob and myself did....so it began to bond our group together. We all enjoyed helping other new players and tried constantly to show others the merits and worth of teamwork and doing things FUN and FASTER but not to the extent of Powergaming. The more we learned the more we looked to help and expand our circle of friends and contacts.....constantly learning and venturing out deeper into the wilds.....I remember Yew did not have a Bank at first so we would have to SURVIVE travels to and from Orc Valley many times evading Orcs (Roleplayers) and PKs as well as the worst PKs....the Chest Bombers. Everything we did as a team and/or taught each other.....we to this day I think could finish each others statements if we sat at a bar or whatnot.....like minded individuals. The early days of UO fostered such and provided such type of grouping.....and then guild creating occured on that line. Inside Trinsic Rattlehead used the North Smith shop and thats where we would also buy his services and then find him in the wilds. Our adventuring took us further out away from Trinsic and after navigating the Moongates we eventually also met Balandar and he became our mage support and then travel gatemaster. The one thing that really separated us from most players was that we all did not care at all about gold much......only thing we wanted it for was to buy new armor from NPCs or Rattlehead, Reagents and Potion pots. The main thing we cared about was SKILL gaining and being able to survive longer in dangerous places....stunk when we would lose stuff to PKs who only took our stuff to sell to get gold. We would just have to sell more backpacks hehehe The Realm was divided then into..... 1)GOLD HUNGRY PKS (aiming to irritate others) 2)GOLD and SKILL HUNGRY MURDERERS (aiming to build big houses) 3)SKILL and GOLD HUNGRY ROLEPLAYERS (aiming to build communities) 4)SKILL HUNGRY GAMERS (aiming to adventure) We started as Group 4.....and remained such till early 1999 then we moved to be Group 3 Now I think there are only 3 groups..... 1)GOLD and SKILL HUNGRY PKS (aiming get better loot) 2) xxxxxxxxxxxRIPxxxxxxxxxxxx 3)ROLEPLAYERS (aiming to build communities) 4)GOLD HUNGRY GAMERS (aiming to get better loot) Mainly due to the nearly irrelevant issue Skill gaining has become (so easy to achieve) and the emphasis on all mechanics of game system to deal with loot achivement by killing....Group 2 is basically extinct. Roleplaying Murderers were rewarded by the GODS and given "blessings" to thier communities or buildings they built. So too did the other Roleplayers but Evil was rewarded first and provided a goal or challenge for the rest of the realm to fight against or aim to achieve. THAT interaction WITH the game system was what many played the game to achieve....us early Founders sought to create a good strong team of friends (family) that could someday achieve something good. We were early teachers in a sense....Good of the Many. We began in a way then to worship the GODS of SKILLS.....Bob and Lags were less into the RP than I was and I guess it was my flair for the dramatic/weaving of storylines to foster an issue that sorta made it fun a bit more......especially when we would get some notice from the GODS. So all was good.....we were happy in anything we did. Including putting a stapler on our keyboard to hold a button down to make the computer attack the damn training dummy over and over.......lord were we EVER going to get to 25 skill in it? We didn't realize then that SPARRING rose the skill 1000 times faster heheheh Man it feels like yesterday and a lifetime ago...... Borg
