This happened more then once...

[Havick_T]

So I log into the game. Staring at the hairy footed Rogue Masters in front of me. I heard the sounds of battle out side of the room I was in. I quickly trained up my piercing and ran down stairs. To much delight and horror I see a Dark Mage destroying my town guards! Such power, such atrocities, such..such opportunities! Hey so sue me I'm a Rogue. I would steal from my mother if I needed too. So I started grabbing the shields off these fallen Guardians of my town. The Dark Mage didn't seem to mind at all! With no warning again.. A flash of fire and pain filled the air. Another guard was under attack. I quickly ran to the wall in fear I might have been next! The Mage looked at me with fire coming forth from his hands! "Care to make some coins my friend?" Staring in my inventory and noticing that it was shy of coins. I nodded. The Dark Mage beckons me close. So I abide. "Take this bag, go into the merchants and sell it.. bring me back the profits of pp.. the rest is yours for your troubles." Being the Rogue that I am. I found this to be quite the interesting proposal. I agreed and hurried off to sell the wares back to the merchant the guards were protecting! Quickly I ran back to not keep the angry Dark Mage waiting. I would not like to end up along side the corpses now stacking up in my town. "Your Platnium and bag back my Dark friend." I said with a bow. He flickered his hands and suddenly fire came forth once more it began to surround me! I thought I was a goner! It did not burn? I was fine. In fact there was nothing wrong with me! I looked at my hands and feet nothing.. I was completely fine. However I now had a different glow to me. I had a living flame not touching my body but protecting me! "Go now little one, kill to your hearts content, I will summon you again for more errands!" said the Dark Mage.

I did as he said ran into the Misty area just outside the towns safety... and so my adventure begins.. Gold in pocket, slain guards spear in hand, ahhh the life of a Rogue. Turn bad situations into profit!

Thanks M for the help bud [You must be logged in to view images.

It's kinda funny I had this happen once before when I stopped playing EQ the first time. I came back and started on a new server with my Gnome Enchanter. There was a Mage out side of the Gnome town killing guards. Lol good times.
