TGIF!

Mourngrym over at Woefeather Conclave sent me an email to come visit. So I took the liberty of popping over to see what this site was all about. I was pleasntly surprised. It is an awesome community site for the Woefeather players. While I was there I noticed that Woefeather Server is having a guild hosted community event this coming Sunday. Order of the Hammer is hosting a Beach Party on the Isle of Elionia check out the Woefeather Conclave site for more info.


I also noticed over at Silky Venom there was an announcement for an event on The Flamehammer Server. I stopped by the Flamehammer Server and spoke to Verath of CTNT Guild concerning the event. He said that indeed CTNT was hosting a race this coming Sunday as well and that players are welcome to stop by their website for more information.


We also have two Knighting Ceremonies this weekend in the Crimson Fellowship so it is indeed set to be an exciting weekend. There certainly will be lots to talk about next week. So if you play on Woefeather or Flamehammer and are looking for something out of the ordinary this weekend be sure to check out these two awesome guild sponsered community events!

A butcher, a baker, a candlestick maker...

Well, okay only a baker. Joshuko was kind enough to take some shots of herself whils she was doing a little role-playing in her TMS character. I think that people are still giving crazy looks when we try to rp with them. Maybe someday they will figure out what we are trying to do. :)

Hey, you do not look like a tree disease.

On a side note I would like to welcome our newest Squireling Yahola. He will be joining out Minotaur Cluster. Welcome aboard!

Way Back Wednesday

Before I was Liaison to the Crimson Fellowship, actually before there was a Crimson Fellowship I wore many hats in the CS department. In fact we often assisted in areas outside of CS while Vanguard was still in beta. One of the things I most enjoyed was helping the art department by taking screenshots. Sometimes getting the perfect shot is not always easy... heh who am I kidding it is never easy. For every one shot that is approved to be released 300 are not. But, just because they are not perfect does not mean they are not a great representation of the game in that particular stage of development. So I saved them... all. Some of the models have undergone a change. Some of the areas these are from have been revamped or are completely gone or renamed. And some of them can be found in game exactly as they were when these shots were taken.


Fire and Ice taken in the then "Elven Magic School" now called Fallen Lyceum of Ingolas. 7-21-06


A lonely giant taken in the Frostshard Lake area. (This was actually me pretending to be a giant!) 7-27-06

A Skeleton Captain in the Dead Landing. (This was actually me too, those darn NPCs do not like to stand still.) 7-26-06


Creepy...Spooky...Scary...Lost Shores/Glade of Shadows area 7-27-06

Well this is the walk down memory lane for this week. Tomorrow we will be back to something a little more current. :)

No Holds Barred

In addition to the Knight Ceremony we had on Friday there was a server wide event on The Florendyl Server over the weekend. Our resident Lifestyles reporter Chian sent me information on a PVP tournament hosted by The Black Company Guild of Florendyl on Saturday April 7th. Players of all levels and classes were invited to attend. Read the announcement and a listing of the winners at Silky Venom or Ten Ton Hammer. According to guild representative Verrik there were 23 participants and many more on-lookers. Chian reports that there was much excitement and fun had by all.


Spectators and Participants.

Small but Deadly

Where does he keep that thing when he is not using it?!?

Boot to the head!

Stabbed in the back!

Thank you for getting these great shots Chian! And a big thanks to The Black Company of Florendyl for hosting this event for your fellow players. I am sure the residents of Florendyl are looking forward to future offerings from you!

Congratulations Lady-Avendaloria Part II

There were so many great shots I could not decide which ones to use! So today is a 2 part post.
Poor Zodero...attack of the killer chickens! (all part of my secret plan to rule the world!)

Grateful Dead tribute?

Puppy...errrr Foxy Love? Thank you to a sentimental Tyathera for sending me this photo!

The whole gang!

Thank you to all who participated and sent contributions. I am sorry I missed it! Congratulations once again Lady Avendaloria!

Congratulations Lady-Avendaloria!

Well it has been a rough few days for me. I have been down for the count with strep throat and a sinus infection. I missed a lot of fun while I was out. Thankfully Chian had the foresight to take pics for me! We had our latest promotion to Knight on Friday. The former Squire-Avendaloria will now be known as Lady-Avendaloria! Congrats to you Avendaloria and congrats to the Cyclops Cluster for getting such a great new Knight!


Everyone gathering for the ceremony.
