The end of EFU:A, maybe, if I really had to pick ONE moment... there have been so many though...

Talir

Entering Sewer Town for the first time, following the rascal employée and rebelling would-be-assassin Montgomery Ubel Criler the III as my Councilor Andrik Krown. Another huge is a NPC watchman coming over to ask how it goes, interrupting a discussion with lieutenant Lothor. This was after Rodon Brinson had gotten demoted down to private. It was just a small thing that meant so much, both IC and OOCly.

Somniis

* Being given a player-made map of the UD Sand Caverns by the mysterious PC elf Sorell Greyn (Germain), which took my first character 18 months to explore, and totally drew me in...

* Exploring the strange passageways of the Dunwarren Machine with Somniis Szul...with a little kick from Nahalopet Ymph; not realising Sanctuary was on its last legs.

* Watching Wiggyboy turn Dan's Paladin PC (Geraint Redpath) inside out during a Temple of Hoar extravanganza.

* Last Days of Sanctuary.

* Being immersed in the many events that lead to the End of EFU:A, for sure. Watching the Aftermath on the server... Mindblowing... Reading Ivan the Faithless's (SC) poem recording the event.

After having been crushed a few times by our archrival Genteel Jim, the Stygians were in bad shape and bad spirits. Master Tau Masemba makes note of this and swaggers up, saying that he'll join us for a bit in whatever we do. So of course we decide to do orcs. What followed was a low-supply high octane quest of unforgettable fun. One of those moments where the game world comes completely alive.

Seeing the assembly and evolution of the Black Parish, spearheaded by Bishop Coolidge and Morthel Seregeth. After the end of the Parish, watching Margulis Baldassare assemble the pieces for his undead creation, turning Bishop Coolidge's corpse into a single-minded animatronic zombie..."Must exterminate!"

A huge fight where the Stygians brought fire and steel to the wildlings and Stargazers, only to be soundly defeated. Even though I was on he losing side, I immensely enjoyed that pvp and still remember it to this day.

Bridge fight; never forget. No more words need said.

Fighting a low-lvl halfling Stygian as a flayer of the rat tribe. We both couldn't have been more than lvl 5, but we fought for ages.

Comital War. Playing a mostly useless bard who ran around healing others and being sorrowful, only to be stomped by ruby horseman. So many cool events in this war.

Blood Hovel. All of the awesome stuff that Germain would do in there. Visions, champions, sacrifices. So many memorable happenings in there with the Blood Legion. One that comes to mind was allowing the Elven Warband into our temple, and greeting them with ritual bloodshed.

And many more...

Big Orc Man

Having the gimpiest rogue vs rogue battle in history as Baklak Trollspike against ShadowCharlatan's Coppercoat in the sewers.  We were using the ambient rats, acid flasks, scrolls of ray of frost, and just about every other piece of pathetic weaponry you can imagine.

Even after Trollspiking him in the end, I still had to just flee from humiliation.

Aethereal

I really enjoyed the Transcendent Conclave events, especially the first major one I was a part of, when the floating enclave left Nebezzdos to destroy H'bala at her very power base.

Aside from that, I found myself really immersed in a fey event that was run by Mort in the later part of Amadeus's life. The confusion of events, being teleported away and separated into groups of 2-3, fighting for your life then when you meet each other again being unsure if your former party members are even the real ones, all culminating in a very intense and utterly sadistic game of musical chairs... marvelous.

There are just so many other smaller events as well, some of a more personal nature too. Truly EFU is full of wonders, which each of us makes possible with our creativity and imagination. Keep rockin' on, as we say. I am certain there'll be a new experience to add here in the future.

It is through Art, and through Art only, that we can realise our perfection.

Had completely forgotten about this. Pretty sublime shit. Big up Wiggy.

Kotenku

I think my favorite was when the Stewards slew a lich and awakened the phoenix.

The Old Hack

Omigod, I forgot this one. A truly amazing moment during which Camille de Ferbourg got captured and used as sacrifice material in a ritual in the Temple of Targus, during which an aspiring palemaster tried to animate a dead PC militiaman as his undead servant. Something went badly wrong and the reanimated militiaman went totally batshit, whacked the palemaster down and chased his accomplice all over the Wardens District. We could tell this from DM shouts about an undead Militiaman rampaging around out there demanding tolls from everyone it met and screaming about Docksmen traitors.

Camille, still lying helpless in a pool of her own blood, croaked, "Is... this sort of thing... a normal risk... in this kind of ritual?"

And the palemaster, who was similarly lying flattened, replied, "There is... unavoidably... always a certain amount... of unpredictability involved."

I laughed so hard. Greatest blood sacrifice ritual ever. Camille somehow survived, but honestly, on top of that experience I really wouldn't have minded it if she had been killed. It would have been an epic way to go.

UnholyWon

If I had to pick one event... it would be when EFU went live. Danger, suspense, intrigue, and a rich history thrilled me with every click of the mouse.  The sheer scope of the server was amazing, and become even more amazing every day.

Bearic

Being a main part in a Bloodmage Ritual, then being turned to stone on random chance, changing back to fight beholders, driders, umber hulks and other beasts just to get out of the underdark with the Shrouded Legion.
 
 That and most of the other running around and finding awesome trouble, like undead petrodyactals and a couple quests were fighting the original threat of the quest is later over shadowed by H'balan monsters.
 
As well, being mowed down by Coral Raiders in the docks in a last defence to save the lives of children, and just lasting long enough to stop orcs from over running the farmlands.

Deadlykate

The dream event where a group of players were put to sleep, they awoke as slime in the Aberdenn's basement.

They fed on the ale leaking out of the barrels then kill and ate the champions of the Aberdenn house. Was pretty funny to think that common slimes could just easily kill them.
