Well, I was in the bank 2 days ago and a guy came up to me and asked if I wanted to join his guild. He looked like such a newbie I thought "wow here's a chance to steal some keys and loot some houses". So he took me to the guild stone very close to vesper, but no such luck, the stone was on the steps :(
Then the next day I was about to go to cov to do more stealing, when I meet Pop "n" Fresh the guild master. He asked me to come back with him to the houses to talk to some guys. While I was there, I noticed a name appear in the house next to theirs (Got to love UO assist), so I put myself in a position for an easy run for the door.
When the door opened, I ran fast but didn't make it. But all was not lost. I snooped the guy's pack and lo and behold a key ring. Half a second later it was my key ring. As I walk away they guy goes "WTF" and can't work out where its gone (he obviously hadn't noticed me steal it). By then a friend of his had turned up and they were both yelling at each other about what to do .
Then they notice my rep was malicious and they both yelled out "Fragile stole them he must have the keys". I was feeling cocky so I said "any thing good in the house?" and they began yelling at me and threatening me. I wasn't scared in the least, these guys had axes and nothing else in their packs, so I told them if they want to kill me I would turn myself gray for them. So I attacked a vender and they attacked me. Then from nowhere, a friend of theirs called Hellsong came to play :(.
Not good for me 3 on 1. Meanwhile, while my guild members were all going "WTF?"," what's going on?"," I don't understand?"
30 sec's later the 2 axe wielders were dead with bolts through their spines from brilliant shooting from me. Then as I was dealing with the pesky archer Hellsong, Morgana turned up. I had done battle with her before at a Cov server down battle so I knew I was in trouble against her. As I drank down my last Gheal, I passed the key to one of the guild members and yelled "I'm dead run like hell" , but the idiot didn't move So I died.
I don't mind dying to superior fire power and Morgana is a good fighter and a fair one. I ran, got ressed, met up with morgana at the bank and talked to her for a while about the battle and congratulated her in killing me. I then ran back to the houses and taunted Hellsong into attacking me "would you like to report Hellsong as a murder?" YES.
I ran back, got ressed and went back to the battle. Again I tormented Hellsong. "Hellsong is attacking you!" ohh goodie.. then he stopped ?? What the hell? I bring out my dagger and attack. Then 2 of his friends jump in. 3 more people with murder counts. I run back, get ressed and run back to the fight. As I'm passing the bank, I notice about 20 people all milling around and talking. I notice that most of them are in the same guild as me! I see Pop an Fresh and ask him what's going on. He tells me they're going to get those bastards. So I wait a while and walked up to the fight to see Hellsong and his 3 friends attacking some passer-by. They refuse to attack me now :(
So I wait a while, and 20 people surround Hellsong and his friends. Morgana had left earlier. They all start arguing, then from nowhere, I don't know who signaled it, they all hit Hellsong at once. I have never seen something more impressive than that. I wish I had got screenshots. Bolts, arrows, exp potions, Corp Pors and every bloody spell in the book he got. One "shit" and he died. I looted the corpse, much to his friends disgust. One hit me in the butt with a hally then ran like hell as 20 people turned on him. I checked what I had grabbed: one backpack with scrolls and regs and stuff. Nothing much. Also a chest, but as any thief knows you don't open chests. So I when back to the bank and left the fighting to my guildmates, I put the bag in the bank. That's when I found out the chest weighed 200 stone!
I put every thing in the bank, walked to the healers and hid in the back room. I opened it. No BoooOOOooM thank god, and what's in it? MY STUFF :) I get all my stuff back as well as all the loot from a few battles hells had. 4 more bone sets and chain and a hell of a lot of good stuff :)
I had to go to work so I missed out on the end of the fight :( But I was told a GM turned up and ordered them to stop it because it was not good for people. My guild master loves me for starting a war that they won and that they all had a great time. It was one of my best days in UO in a very long time. Who knew that one little incident could screw up so many people. :) I made a good profit even if I did die 3 times
Bye fragile
