Doomy told me he made a thread about UO, but I couldn't find it, so here it is.

Do any of you play(ed) UO? If you do, you can continue reading. If not(or if you don't want to read the boring details), skip to the last paragraph.

I've played for around 4 years now. I started out way back in '98-'99(right around the time of the Trinsic invasions), but soon quit. I started back right after UO:R release.

I've played on Chesapeake for the entirety of that time. I have five characters on that shard, but only two are really built up:

Raistlin: tamer/mage. My first character(started out as a pure mage, then tank mage, then tamer/mage). Has 86-something taming, 90-ish animal lore, 97.5 magery, lower 90s meditation and eval int, and a pathetic high 60s veterinary. About 10 mil in the bank, with a Fel large L-shape. Rides a mare(bonded), and has dragons and a white wrymn in the stables.

Gunthar: 3x GM pure swordsman, started out as a bard/swordsman. 106 swords, 105-ish tactics, 101 anatomy, 97 parrying, 80-ish healing, 55-ish resist spells, and I forget what else. With his earth ele slaying katana, can easily kill earth eles in two hits, and completely owns level shame. I can get almost as much gold with him in level 1 shame as I can with Raistlin fighting daemons with his mare. About 200k in the bank. Has a valorite katana that I paid 600k for when they were first made available(when it was a GM indestructable, surpassingly accurate katana of vanquishing), but is now worth around 10k(*sigh*). But I once soloed a rotting corpse with him!

Dalamar: bard/mage. 80s provo, high 80s music, 70-ish peacemaking, 75-ish magery, 70-ish eval int and med. Can solo daemons.

Theros: blacksmith/miner. 80-ish mining, 56-ish blacksmithy. Newbie blacksmith.

Derek: newbie pally(and I mean newbie).


Anyway, Doomgaze, myself, and Jebus decided to start over completely on Atlantic, a shard that neither of us had characters on. We used Suikoden names. So Doomy's mage/bard is Mazus and his blacksmith/tailor is Mace, Jebus's alchy/scribe/mage is Crowley, and my Paladin is Viktor, and my t-hunter is Killey.

We haven't been at it long. Doomy has used 8x8 to get his music up to 80s, but I only have one skill past 70 with Viktor, and that's Focus.

With the massive drop in housing prices, we were discussing eventually buying a good-sized fel house, hopefully for around 200-300k(we have around a combined 20k right now, but we're still working on skills).



So, if any of you do play UO, how about creating a character on Atlantic and joining our little group? It's been slightly delayed with Jebus's absence(he had been playing on the Return to Britannia for Free program), but I have been assured he will return(or he'll get a nasty visit to his house late one night). Yes, you can join up even if you already are established on Atlantic, but we did all this to get the feel or starting over completely again.
