Black leather gloves, rapiers and tinder boxes on goblins, silverfish in ships rats, jumping through the floor of the old barn in goblins to get a wound to tend. Cave bears slaughtering folks, cougars also slaughtering folks, massive ranks of evasion off of beisswurms. Shard opening and me standing there going whats a Dragon Priest? <duh!> Leucros opening up and being lead to my death due to a massive crash...I could go on and on but I am getting all misty eyed now!

I still remember my first fight against a musk hog. It was an epic battle. I got cuts and bruises to my leg and I thought I might die of blood loss. I'll never forget that first mental imagery I conjured up.

Oh, and silverfish in the shipyard? Yeah, I was stunned when I died at fifth circle. Eventually I graduated to sharing a room in goblins.

Man. Q is OLD!

I remember the day of the undead, where they turned off death for a day. My first barb was like 3rd circle, and someone took him along out to rock trolls. Came back to town with literally no chest. Fun times.

Shapeshifter lying outside the Guild until they would let him circle to 30. Everyone sitting in the Trader Guild socializing. My first raise. Shard opening. Rowan's tree and the jellybeans. The night the merchant came with moneybelts. Phangor rerolling...and rerolling...and rerolling... When milady's cloaks were coveted. Buying a snake charm for 6 plat. Therae, Luigi, Shapeshifter, Tera... Claw trolls. When gargs were the scariest critter.

Life is the journey, not the destination.

Here's a few more,

Never mind selling outside the bank we used to be able to sell INSIDE the bank at the tellers window. Rolling up new characters and entering through the East gate of Crossing. Snowbeasts invading Crossing gobs. Being lost in the Hunting preserve forever. The old ranger grove and the endless stealing, stalking and teaching cirlces there. The Gorbesh singing campfire songs and the smell of smores from thier camp. Making massive plats in blood wolves. There is just so much to remember.

<<the jellybeans

I still have some of those in my vault also.

I surprise that Dulci didn't mention Dung Beetles. Another to add is Battle Spheres.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect. M.T.

moon gates

the day fireball casting Fire Sprites overan Riverhaven..
finding a Ilmenite tipped wand on a goblin and saying wonder what this does?
everyone wanting a jagged edged outrider broadsword
the day the west gate in riverhaven opened (AKA Dung beetles) and Strake and Raft saying 'come on it will be easy', me dying 45 secs later.
everyone wanting a Gorbesh clenched fist broadsword
the day I realized that Lord Sorrow had cut off the NTR and I was stuck in crossing for the duration of the war.
everyone wanting a elpalzi veteran claymore sheath

just a few of the many...

A sailor walks up to you and says, "Your commission as Captain of the Lybadel has run out."
The sailor salutes and walks away to return to his duties.

>How about licking your sword to give yourself a tendable bleeder?

you can still do that (except empaths can't for some reason..)

you have to do it multiple times to get a bleeder, warmies have it easier, just burn their beards off a few times.. but who would want a head bleeder anyway, interferes with almost everything

>> - Those two-handed swords from an invasion creature that could only by lifted by a select few after they were buffed up. I don't recall anyone being able to swing them.

Heh, cyclops invasions.

I think Gurt or someone swung one once. He had a huge RT (this was before a cap was put in place) and he had to assist because it actually broke his fatigue.

You accept Syralon's offer and are now holding some holy oil.

Syralon says to you, "May the oil make you shiny and full of religion."

Was Glemm.

<<everyone wanting a elpalzi veteran claymore sheath>>

Man I remember killing a bunch of those Veterans back then (smite foe had some major kick at the time). I didn't realize that the sheaths were anything special and just left them lying around. Had to pay 50 plat for one a week later =(

Just got to this thread. Oh how I miss them. I still have a bone to pick with them!

Goblins dropping gweths like candy, 1400 people in game with 700 in the crossing, loud, obnoxious auctions and frequent conflicts, lightning bolt wands and the slaughtering fields out the west gate, full guilds and frequent wars. Course there was the crashes and constant lag, but still, it was pretty awesome and exciting being constantly forced into new situations by the sheer frezny that was the Crossing, especially for a pragmatist like myself who doesnt like to pretend conflict with set boundaries and all that.
