Archangel the warlock says "when I first played this mud (which was the first mud I ever played) I decided I wanted to name my self after Heihachi from Tekken.". Archangel the warlock says "I spelt it wrong as Heiachi". Archangel the warlock says "and then a few days later, in my first bash, I died, and quickly rushed back on, but I missed out the 'I' at the end.". Archangel the warlock says "I got my first hero with Heiach". Archangel the warlock says "with my first hero I got my first superhero". Archangel the warlock says "and then my first champion". Archangel the warlock says "and then my first sorcerer". Archangel the warlock whispers "I died shortly after.". (Karya the muddled witch) grins. (Karya the muddled witch) asks "how did you die?". Archangel the warlock thinks. Archangel the warlock says "to tell the truth, I can't remember". (Karya the muddled witch) asks "what was the first death you remember?". Archangel the warlock says "me (prelate) and Niles (necromancer) dying to 3 dwarves, trying to do them by our selves". (Karya the muddled witch) asks "When did you first start playing MUD2?". Archangel the warlock thinks Archangel the warlock says "August 98". (Karya the muddled witch) asks "What led you to MUD2?". Archangel the warlock says "Niles introduced me to it". Archangel the warlock says "he had been playing it for 3 weeks at that time". (Karya the muddled witch) asks "ahh, how did Niles discover it?". Archangel the warlock thinks. Archangel the warlock says "I am not sure, he did play air attack at that time, so he probably saw it on the WirePlay website". (Karya the muddled witch) nods. (Karya the muddled witch) asks "did you introduce anyone to MUD2 yourself?". Archangel the warlock nods. (Karya the muddled witch) asks "who?". Archangel the warlock says "Madidus (who played for about a month) and Drucilla". (Karya the muddled witch) asks "once there was the three of you playing, did that work out well, did the three of you play here together because you all knew one another?". Archangel the warlock says "you mean me Niles and Drucilla?". Archangel the warlock says "yes". Archangel the warlock says "we teamed up a lot". (Karya the muddled witch) nods. Archangel the warlock says "and during the short time Madidus played, all four of us played together". (Karya the muddled witch) asks "do you all still get on, or has MUD2 driven you all apart?". (Karya the muddled witch) grins. Archangel the warlock says "I still get on with Madidus and Niles, Niles more so.... It wasn't because of Mud2". (Karya the muddled witch) nods. (Karya the muddled witch) asks "What were your first impressions of MUD2?". Archangel the warlock says "before I played the game, when Niles told me that he plays an online text game, I didn't think it sounded particually good. Then I watched him play for a bit, and he asked if I wished to play". Archangel the warlock says "I did, I got hooked... I like the being able to kill players when ever you want and the idea of swamping treasure". Archangel the warlock thinks. Archangel the warlock glances around. (Karya the muddled witch) asks "who has had the most lasting impression on you?". Archangel the warlock thinks. Archangel the warlock thinks, some more. Archangel has two choises in his head. (Karya the muddled witch) wonders. (Karya the muddled witch) says "do tell". Archangel the warlock says "Darknight and Azrael". (Karya the muddled witch) asks "What kind of impressions have those two left you with?". Archangel the warlock says "well Darknight used to help me a lot when I saw new... so he helped with some problems I had, generally got me even more hooked". (Karya the muddled witch) nods. Archangel the warlock says "Azrael attacked me quite a lot, so I had to learn how to flee". (Karya the muddled witch) nods. (Karya the muddled witch) asks "what annoys you the most about MUD2?". Archangel the warlock thinks. Archangel the warlock makes some magical gestures. Archangel the warlock says "losing every single point when you die.. but mainly re-attacks.". (Karya the muddled witch) asks "could you suggest a reasonable alternative to losing points when you die?". Archangel the warlock shakes her head. (Karya the muddled witch) grins. Archangel the warlock says "if losing every single point is really bad, why do players keep coming back". Archangel the warlock says "if when the mud was first played.. and everyone complained.. then it could of been changed so you lose a certain %". Archangel the warlock says "but I don't mind it that much..". (Karya the muddled witch) smiles. For your information: there are 125 mobiles still alive. (Karya the muddled witch) asks "What is your favourite part of The Land?". [----*]qw (Karya the muddled witch) Calliss the superhero Dogsofwar the yeoman Diablo the sorcerer Archangel the warlock Archangel the warlock thinks. Archangel the warlock ponders. Archangel the warlock says "I am not sure". Archangel the warlock thinks, a little more. Archangel the warlock says "the graveyard". (Karya the muddled witch) asks "interesting, why there?". Archangel the warlock says "I like the idea of having immortal's bodies buried there.. when I was new I spent some time reading them all". (Karya the muddled witch) grins. Archangel the warlock says "and I was interested in the urn.. so I could find out when past wizards made it there". (Karya the muddled witch) coughs, and witches too Archangel the warlock nods, witches as well. (Karya the muddled witch) grins. (Karya the muddled witch) asks "if you could design an area in The Land, what would you do?". Archangel the warlock says "probably a desert". Archangel the warlock says "with hidden tombs under the sand.. and". Archangel the warlock says "when its sunny, your stamina would decrease slowly due to the heat". (Karya the muddled witch) exclaims "nice ideas!". Hovering before you is Eros, wearing a blindfold.  Eros pulls his bow and shoots Archangel the warlock! Eros gives a satisfied smile, and flies away. (Karya the muddled witch) exclaims "save them for when you make wiz, you've got the beginings of a quest there!". Archangel the warlock corrects you, "change when to if". (Karya the muddled witch) grins. (Karya the muddled witch) asks "so ... do you have any major plans for WHEN you make wiz?". Archangel the warlock says "not really, I could probably come up with quite a few WHEN I make wiz.. I am not banking on it". (Karya the muddled witch) grins.
