Chatting with EM Dudley | |
| Posted on Wednesday, October 28, 2009, 1:05 PM EDT by Merik ONN (Chesapeake) |
| Chatting With Em Dudley October 27, 2009 By: Lissa Eldi [*V*] After last nights graveyard event, which featured well over an hour of spawn, culminating in a boss Mongbat, EM Dudley (and the Spirit Advisor) hung around to chat with anyone who cared to for quite a long time. He is a very patient person, and was fortunately wearing a doublet which was crafted by the Minoc Flak Jacket Co. hehe....cute and creative. First I want to say, the event was great fun, and unique items were given out in undisclosed numbers: Some sort of unique bandages which I did not see Orange hued lanterns, named light of knowledge. (Tancred got one and might be persuaded to post a screenie) A book off the Mongbat boss...aptly titled The Top Prize. (This was won by Pearl) I'm going to apologize, I have no screenshots and will be telling high points from memory. ~ Some events will give items and some will not. ~There will be an event next month called Feast of the Harvest Moon. ~ The contest and silly fun type events like at last weekends Harvest Moon Festival, will be prizes like GM crafted clothing with clever names. (I received two of those; one for apple bobbing contest, a jester hat crafted by Britannia Apple Growers Inc., 6 total given out; and a wizard hat for costume contest crafted by Moonglow Costume Emporium, 5 total given out.) ~ "Meatier" Events, featuring battles and such will feature giveaways of more unique items, such as last nights lanterns and bandages. ~ All the EM's had a meeting Monday night with their boss to clarify what they should and shouldn't be giving, and in what numbers. There should be more equity between shards. Movement is going away from globally handing out items to everyone. ~ Said numbers of each item will be undisclosed ~ The Commander Foxx/Belander saga will be ending next month with an Epic ending...Epic being the word Dudley used. ~ A dual Tram/Fel event is in the works, might be slightly different on each facet. He is not sure what to do about the fel duels, I assume from what i've read this is due to technical issues to prevent griefing...but you would need to ask him that. ~ Constructive feedback and ideas continue to be invited, and everyone should try to attend the House of Common meetings, held on Sunday nights at 9 ~ He feels that for him, in game methods are the best for getting word out to folks. He favors scrolls because the event announcers are limited to one-liners and are more cumbersome to set up. ~ Don't expect a lot of updates on the website, Dudley is a person after all, and freely admitted to us that website construction is "by far not his strong suit". There may be more but after I came into the talk a few minutes late and had a short's night sleep, this is what stands out for me. The chat began with some players being pretty unhappy, but I think by the end, everyone had a better understanding of things. Thank you Dudley and Vladimere for the time and patience you put into all that you do! |

[Some stories were lost from power outage.]  Told by: Goat "I came across a disturbingly ugly world with three heads! I charged the wolf as fast as my goat legs would take me I took my war fork and jammed it straight into the eyes of the right head. Thinking this would kill the beast It did not fall! Nearly stop one head from biting the wolf tackled the goat! and started chomping down with the other two heads. But Goats, my friends have a secret weapon.

Took it upon himself to face what all dreaded. This hero ventured into despair fight all on his way to the god stack. He was too cocky to care. Didn't watch his back, let us say he wasn't aware. The elf didn't make it home. Let this remind never fight alone." Told by: Ado the Theif "Bout... 4 years ago while I was travelin' th land... I heard quite a bit of battle cries in the distance.. Sounded like a gank t' me... Turned out t' be a battle between two armies. Why they we're fightin ill never know. I waited in the shadows of the houses for quite a while. Till most of em we're dead. Then I went out an started killin' th' remainin' wounded. Then went through all their belongings.. made quite a killin that year.. Had so much loot I could barley move. Ah.. guess thats th' end.."

Journey to the Harrower! | |
| Posted on Thursday, October 8, 2009, 9:28 PM EDT by Morpheus Mardox (Chesapeake) |
Journey to the Harrower! It's not everyday one can enter the realm of perhaps the most ferocious beast this world has to offer. Such was the case last eve as I hastily decided to accept an invite to travel to the lands of Felucca. Gathering my armours I journied to the dungeons depths en route to the star room to meet my guides for the evenings fun, the UhOh guild. Placing the skulls upon the temple the infamous black gate came to life as our group moved into the darkenss appearing somewhere within the great Terathean Keep. Our search for the one and only Harrower had begun. Arriving near the north walls of the second level , we found ourselves face to face with the shards ultimate champion.  Expecting visitors, UhOh dug in for the long haul as exits were soon manned and fielded with precision as the party engaged the evil being.   The sights and sounds of the nights battle still fresh in my mind, I recall the massive dragons and mages afoot casting furiously into the evil one's direction. Even a newfound Vollem was out for action this eve lending its might along the way.  Just as the objective and the path to its defeat seemed clear the call rang out of invaders in the corridors to the east. FoA had arrived with minimal forces to attempt to thwart the efforts of UhOh. A giant Colossus was unleashed upon the unsuspecting invaders forcing thier retreat from which they came.   Dealing deadly blows UhOh bested the invaders in short work with the battle reaching the home of the Legendary Mephistis. Here I got a death robe of my own!  With the invaders quelled the attention soon turned back to the evil ones demise. a long lenghty battle ensued with UhOh eventually slaying the beast.    As always the battle rages on in the lands of Felucca. Thanks to the UhOh Guild for the invite and grand time witnessing the carnage. A hearty well fought to the brigands of FoA for making it interesting. Great night! |

A hope of an era of cooperation and prosperity between our lands and races and offer to thy people the knowledge of the gargoyle race in all things now and forever. Dawn offered her a room to stay in since she seemed tired. The Zhah accepted. Tomorrow they will see how security is and have a party.

Two Teb And A Massive Slasher! | |

Slasher of Veils Defeated by TEB! The Underworld September 22, 2009  Kroth and Spag two lone dexers against one of the Underworlds most deadliest beasts. These two took this monster on with little challenge. The only challenge was fighting it for so long but, in the end like most battles against great dexers the beast fell. The weapon of choice? Soul Seeker. Healing tactics? Cross healing. Armor? Not sure. From what this reporter has seen this villain of Veils packed a hard left fire hook. One does have to wonder if Draconi had any say in all this Fire destruction this beasts does during battle. Congrats to Kroth and Spag. (I will be around this week peeking in at different monster battles in the under ground. Your epic battle could be seen next!)  |

FoA Treasury (Museum) Moves To Ter Mur | |
| Posted on Friday, September 18, 2009, 4:21 PM EDT by Merik ONN (Chesapeake) |
FoA Treasury Moves Royal City Of Ter Mur September 18, 2009  After walking in Zento I noticed the Museum seemed to have vanished. I later found the museum in its new home of Ter Mur. I had the opportunity to contact Solus, the owner of the museum to ask him a few questions about one of Chesapeakes largest Museums. The new location is directly East of the Ter Mur Moongate. Why has the FoA Treasury / Museum moved to Ter Mur? I moved the house because the atmosphere in Ter Mur seemed much more fitting. The amount of travel it will see, will be increased once the moongate is activated. More people will be visiting Ter Mur than they did with Zento. What kind of items does the museum collect? I collect any EM Items/Sever Births/Shard wide community event items/Seer Items. My goal is to help show the history of each shard through the items that were found during their events. I try not to divulge into the history of each item, because I find the time researching and reading the history of the event and the item is much more fun and informative. The museum seems very well organized. Do you have a certain way of displaying items? I do not have set standards to display the items. I am not the best decorator around, but I try to make everything flow. I do admit, the most rare items will usually be found on the first floor. What is the most historic item in the Museum? Fiction wise in the game, the Treachery is probably the most historic. It was Lord Blackthorns "claw" after all.  Do you have any new displays recently added to the museum? I have added several new items from around various shards. The items are mostly from recent events these shards have had the past couple months. What is your favorite display and why? They are all my favorite. Some items do hold a deeper meaning for me. Maidens Heart + Silver Plated Skull because they were items I received myself on Chessy. Treachery + Gem of Immortality because of the fiction behind the two items.  Give us a look into how you decide what goes into the museum and how you obtain the item for display. Obtaining the items is no easy task. First off there is a large Rares community that helps keep track of when a shard has an Event Item. Then the next task is to post/travel to that shard to find the item and track down someone who owns it. Negotiating is the hardest part, working out a deal that satisfies both parties. Once you finalize your deal, you of course need to pack up the gold, and travel to and from the shard. For items over 100m in value, there are also trust issues. You have to discuss and figure out the safest way for both parties to trade. Sometimes this requires a broker to step in and help. Has the museum ever donated any decorative items to any outside communities? I do try to add to the community as much as I can. While true, I unfortunately cannot hand out the big rares, anything I can do to add to the shard community I will try my best. If something is needed, please ask Gareth to pass it on to me, and I will see what can be done. I also am aware some people may take that with a grain of salt considering how harsh I am on EM Vladimere, I want to reiterate, items in my collection are usually never for sell. When I get upset at Vladimere for being the only shard at the moment to NOT give Event Items, I am upset because we have no pieces of history to take home with us. Greed rules the world, but for me, it is about taking home a piece of history so I can show others history of our shard and others. A peak at the first floor of the FoA Treasury. This is all but a small part of the entire display area which is every tile in the building. If you want to see more you are just going to have to visit the FoA Treasury. Thank you Solus for taking the time to answer our questions and giving Chesapeake an insight of how the museum works and what it has to offer.  |

PaxOku and Kijustsu Anei Part Ways | |
| Posted on Monday, September 14, 2009, 9:04 PM EDT by Morpheus Mardox (Chesapeake) |
Okuintwo PaxOku and Kijustsu Anei Part Ways PaxOku undergoes significant changes as of Sundays eve. The city has been split into two defined areas. Kijustsu Anei Village as its called is emerging on its own from the parting of ways. Attending the cities biweekly meeting led by Governor Winfield, visitors were greeted at the cities "Blue Light Tavern." General announcements included the resignation of the cities mayor of almost a years time Bam Bam, the temporary Mayorship of Winfield inside the city, along with a thank you to Bam Bam for her conrtibutions to the city. Governor Winfield then opened the floor to speakers, Bam Bam, Niva and Gareth took turns accordingly explaining the current announcement that the established "Village of Kijustsu Anei" would open its doors to the realm as the shards newest player run village. The two settlements would share the space outside the Homare Jima Moongate in attempts to coexsist during these changing tides. City boundaries would soon be redrawn as the two parties worked to hammer out finalities within the sepration. The two newfound neighbors will look to once again foster mutual respect and good play in the coming months as both begin to grow anew. Godspeed to all.  |

Lady Dawn Leads Chesapeake To Victory Over The Shadowlords! | |
| Posted on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 1:04 PM EDT by Morpheus Mardox (Chesapeake) |
SLEnding Lady Dawn Leads Chesapeake To Victory Over The Shadowlords The evil that has plagued the realm of late came to its finale this weekend as Lady Dawn with the aid of the Platinum Dragons led the uprising to crush the forces of the Shadowlords. The battle began on Fridays eve, as hordes of Crimson Dragons were met by the players of Chesapeake as well as the protectors of the realm the Platinum Dragons, just outside the dungeon Wrong.  The battle began ferociously as the behemoths of the realm shook the earth beneath blasting away at one another as the brave warriors of Chespeake joined the fight attacking the evil Crimsons with all thier might.  As the battle raged on, word spread fast around the realm of the ongoing conflict as not only players and guilds seeking to aid the forces of good arrived but evil murderers and faction fighters from Minax and the Shadowlords jumped into the fray slaying those who might aid the Platinums. The Followers of Armedeggon's attempt to thrwart the will of the virtues fell short as their forces and many dragons were eventually slain by the combined forces of Chesapeake.  Once the murderous fiends were held off, the efforts of the realm were realized as the Platinums overtook the final Crimson. The death toll high, a sigh of relief could be taken as the realm was safe, at least for that eve. Special thanks to Panaramix (Qc) for our screen shots as well as Pink (MoB) for thier eyewitness accounts. Healing the wounded and recouping from the previous nights battle brought many questions as the realm wondered if this truly was the end of all the suffering brought upon us all. The Shadowlords had been dealt a defeat but had not been seen themselves. The treachery of Lord Casca in tow, the veil of the Shadowlords still lingered in the air. Sundays town crier brought word to meet Lady Dawn in the city of Britain..... Equiping myself with thy sturdiest armour and spells I made the trek to Britain arriving from Guardians Gate to find citizens gathered in excitement and ready for anything as the anticipated arrival of the fabled warrior ensued. Appearing on the rooftop of the Britain Counselors Hall, Lady Dawn addressed the crowd speaking of the true nature of the Shadowlords intentions here on Chesapeake.   Lady Dawn told those in attendance the Shadowlords sought to recreate a new "Gem of Immortality" , The very gem which created the multiple facets we call home here in the realm which met its end many years ago. She revealed she knew thier location as the very lords of evil guarded its completion. Calling upon the crowd to help defeat this plot against them, the call to arms had begun.       Calling upon the mantras Lady Dawn opened a moongate to the described location. The group plunged into the darkness to find themselves deep inside a cavernous area dank with the smell death itself. The defenders of the realm knew not what lie ahead.  Charging forward to meet thier foes head on, courageous warriors from all walks of life took up arms against the beasts that lie within. What seemd like hundreds of Shadowlord Manisfestations roamed the corridors! Alerting the evil to our prescence the battle that ensued was nothing less than spectacular to bear witness too. Thunderous bolts of energy and flame lit the darkness as the caves floor was soon littered with the bodies of warriors and manifestations alike.      The relentless will of the players of Chesapeake tested to its fullest, the group fought deep into the catacombs reaching a mystical altar from which sparkeld a gem of which none had ever seen. Brillianty red in color, and gleaming with the powers of all Sosaria, It's keepers , the three masters of the shadows Nosfentor, Faulinei, and Asteroth stood in our way. The battle was fierce and the death toll immense as the Shadowlords fought unto thier own demise eradicating many along the way. Barely surviving the encounter, we gathered to bear witness to the gem and Lady Dawn's retrieval of the powerful artifact.    Claiming the gem for safekeeping Lady Dawn once again summoned the mantras transporting us to Castle British. Ascending the throne gem in hand, she made several declarations. The glorious lady warrior declared her intention to assume the throne of Britannia! The shadowlords defeated her sights now set on Lord Casca. Boasting her first works upon laying claim to the throne was to free those falsely accused by Casca. Lord Avery, Commander of the Royal Guard was to be set free immediately, along with the once salty thief Ricardo! The would be queen then ordered the construction of a new House of Commons north of Britains Gate.                  Among the many riches discovered with the gem were hordes of Cloaks of Corruption, Doom Artifacts, and three very peculiar items. Small fragments or "shards" of the newly constructed gem were gathered by a lone warrior. Conker aka Necro amassed all three shards dealing heavy damage to all three Shadowlords. He took a few moments to show me the precious remnants. Upon realizing thier origin and importance, he proclaimed the three would be split among several locations along with the realm to ensure any and all who wished to visit and gander at the prizes of victory. I even went as far as to suggest one be displayed at the Museum of the Virtues, one of the realms most prominent museums. The kryss wielding necromancer assured us he'd mull it over!  The day saved once again by the citizens of the realm led by the air apparant to the throne of Lord British. We now look to locating Lord Casca to confront the false king one final time. Will he relinquish the throne to Lady Dawn? In the words of our own EM Dudley "Stay Toon'd!" Well Done Chesapeake! |
