    *shrugs* I was trying to figure out what all can he beat. And i didnt know Bodak has death ability.

    Anyway today was quite awsome. Having around 6 characters (all lvl 15+) running around in the dungeon. Nasty thing is that they enter the dungeon, i run a full circle around it setting encounters, traps and loot, and then they walk through one room, find a ladder upwards (with a trap hehe) and go up. So there i go again running around placing stuff.
    It was all cool, while i only had Frosty and Jaxtor(iirc he's jaxtor). All i had to do is run ahead, place some stuff and posses some monsters. But when a lot of players came by, time started running very short. There was a Velsharoon priest, who'll attack the party for looting/escaping the tomb, a n00b ALFAn asking questions and a party to guide (which was luckily quite buisy with their own members). Well, i think we had much fun anyway :)

    BTW, Shifter is really cool!
    Especialy when char is just rezzed, without all items and must retrieve his stuff from a dozen mummies ;)

    But regular ALFA with nice low-levels and a good story behind every quest is much better.

    Aye, it's great fun with low levels adn a good story. Although every now and then one needs to throw some fun monsters at a high level character, just to get a change. Or of course have the monsters thrown at him, which is also fun.

    Oh, on a side note, ALFA Live Vault should be up by this time tomorrow, if not before hand.

    Gothy! Don't forget about our own little traitor.
    From my own character, Darkfyre the drow - (glossed over though. My fingers are freezing and typing is a pain)

    Darkfyre the drow befriended Jax, the very very cool halfling, together, we were doing great, until that is, we headed up gothys bedamned ladder. In the name of the underdark! How many mummies did you spawn on us? After we came back, much fun was ot be had, as it seemed that someone must've followed us up, and also gotten killed by our mummies, we continued to loot their stuff along with organizing our own.

    On the way up, we met another adventurer, dwarven by the looks of it, claimed he was looking for some guy or other. At this point Darkie wasn't really concentrating, her mino form was more eager to sniff out undead then lsten to small folk talking. The dwarf ran off, we followed, andm much to Darkie's joy we met lots and lots of skeletons, so Fyre was happy to cleave those up for a while. We rescued the dwarfs friend, but he ran off afterwards *sigh* thats human gratitude for you.

    After that, the terrible two met up with another halfling, a nasty piece of work he was, Darkie didn't like him at all. Jax was okay with him, but he hated Jax by the looks of it. Bah, next thing he does? Turn invisble on us and run. Darkie and Jax weren't having any of this now. A few words, and Darkie was shifted into a huge drider, and Jax used some of his magical gems to see through the halflings trickery.

    Small folk *rolls eyes* All we wanted to do was to ask him if he wanted to team up to get out of this dark bedamned pit. Eventually, after much running around, Darkie the drider cornered the little bugger. And then, he had the indignity to try stick me with his knife. Now, Fyre wanted none of this at all. Jax was inclined to agree. We decided dead people didn't ned their stuff, and carried on, a lot more richer then before.

    Now, up onto teh third level, by this time Darkie was running low on shifts. But as luck should have it, we met with another two adventurers, Bekka and Hart (ALFA'n newb) The larger party continued on. blah blah blah

    Interesting bit, and pretty close to where my story ends -

    A drow male appears from no where (PC) So... well, Fyre decides to call him "male" not a good idea on her own part really, so inter party relationships get off to a bad start. then Hart tried to pick pocket him while we were arguing. Not good! Hart escaped nearly unscathed, but the drow male wasn't a happy bunny. Anyway, a few minutes later through the dingy corridors... and bloody mummies. Everywhere! Darkie chops a few up, but has to retreat blah blah blah long boring fight.

    Hart and the drow male dispeaed off round the corner, so Darkfyre followed. And what should she see! But the drow male bringing the halfling within an inch of his life with one of his Banite spells. Darkie sticks up for the little guy, and the drow plays innocent. But anyway, everyone sided with me, and I resulted it getting blown away by onw of his spells :( Had to log off after that.

    Great fun though, last night darkie was 6druid/7shifter :( he was 20 cleric.

    But I made a script this morning for leveling up and shoved it into my toolset, so now... 10/10 druid shifter!

    :D Ready to exact some wrath, and looking forward for some more fun tonight.

    Kric Bendt reign of terror is continuing!

    Me and some crazy gnome barbarian(my roommate) are tearing through Selgaunt. Give it a tenday or two and the entire city will be OURS.

    Umm, yea, more like doing DM quests and trying to find a red robe.

    Btw, anyone here interested in playing an evil cleric? We need healing :D

    Bah, my roleplaying ALFA abilities have gone way way way dorwn hill since the death of my beloved druid, Taemarya. Now a days my characters tend to last for neigh on a week (or less - more often then not less)

    Check this out - Never ever hit level 3 on any of my 20 odd characters, :( at least I could hit level 2 on DD, or, I did at least twice.
    I have a vault clean out a few days about 3-4 days ago, blah, already two dead characters in it.

    :(

    eh. Ignore me, I'm just being depressive.

    I only got one character to level 2 out of my 20 odd characters, let alone level 3! But then I was exceptionally terrible at keeping characters alive *shrugs*
    You'll eventually find a character you like and keep it alive.
    Prehaps try a new server or something if you can't keep a character alive on that one. Waterdeep is a great place if you're looking for a change.

    Maybe I am just luckey. My second PC hit level 3, and my newest one just hit two.

    Psst, start a character on Selgaunt, you will have fun. . .I promise. :evil:

    Just take a look at the ALFA community boards, and you'll find the haks download pages in no time.
    Yeah, everything is back to normal. Good old ALFA :)
    Except that quite a few servers have disapeared. Ah, well at least we who remain get more players :)
