Really, your standard "newb alert" post, but I figured I'd give it a week or so before a proper hello in case I got bored of or frustrated with the server. Thankfully, I haven't!

It's started off great, you've got some nice lowbie quests and none of that "go kill 10 rats" crap I saw on even some of the other RP servers I tried. The single-player quests had a nice range and gave me some useful and interesting gear, though the one that gets you Sverfneblin Healing Devices I somehow managed to miss on all my toons, which was irriating when I found out.

Much of what you changed here actually encouraged me to RP my character, something I'd not bothered with in games before. Giving out just enough information on the site and quests to help but make talking to players a necessity. Banning shouts and having the sending system. Of course having decent players helped, since nobody took offence at a couple of RP screwups when I explained I was new.

See you in-game, and if you meet a hyperactive gnome with a love of over-sized blades, that'll likely be me.

Welcome to the server. I've met you IG already, I was the kobold in the Crone who was afraid you were going to murder me, :P

Have fun here, and prepare to never escape.

Heh. I remember. Figured it'd be fun to play a character whose general gnomish prejudices are secondary to his desire for a challenging fight or more gold for shiny hats.

Had him join up with the "good" goblins in Lower for a raid on the goblin bandit camp with the thought of "If they're honest, I get to fight goblins. If they betray me, I get to fight goblins! :D "

So far him and my bard have been a riot, and i've got Dent as a serious personality.

Nah, I died 4 times, but nothing unrespawnable. :arrow: Once from a bug where a dozen magic missiles hit me from nowhere. (Dent) :arrow: Once from having my lvl 2 Gnome decide to charge the Gnoll invaders. It was IC for him, and I expected little less than gnoll-based demise. (Elwicket) :arrow: Ran away from Hook Horrors and then they spawned ON the traversal when I zoned. Would have survived the hit from them if I'd not been deleveled from his first death. (Dent) :arrow: Bitch-slapped by Slimes (Egon)
