My first adventure years ago...

[Swish]

Fantastic stuff. We've all got them...keep them coming!

As for me, I started up in November 1999, similar story. Saw it in the shop, it looked VERY different from anything else I'd ever played and sure enough it was!

My first character was a high elf wizard on Prexus. Female? Sure, we'll try that. I remember getting a gossamer robe off someone who didn't want theirs anymore - very generous indeed, I looked fantastic going through Greater Faydark. Ohh, and the path from Felwithe to Kelethin was so scary.... wasps buzzing, bats flapping, ORC PAWNS? Didn't like those!! Eventually get to Kelethin thinking I'd travelled for miles, there were druids there giving out magical buffs...projecting green and yellow from their arms, they gave one to me. I thanked them.

Had a go at the bandit camp (3 bandits) with some others, some guy asked me if I had any pictures? I was quite unsettled. Could he have my ICQ number? Fucckk offf! That spelt the end of my first EQ character, never rolled a female toon ever since on any game... too weird! :s

Went on from there as a wood elf bard, spamming my elvish for someone else's gnomish (etc), enjoyed OOT, enjoyed Freeport/EC/WC. Typical levelling from there, all so new to me... and the memories come flooding back on P1999. Great to have it with us! Best of all, the kindness that some people show on EQ is still present.

Hope you're all enjoying it as much as I am [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
