/e rings the bell for attention. July 1, 2006 is the start of the Big Contest. Get out there and rack up those guild status points 

 The new members keep rolling in.

 Welcome to Krifit, who tells us he chose his name because it sounds like a good verb. Apparently he likes to go out and 'krifit a mob'.

 Griffindor (Harry Potter anyone) is the grandson of Lotusbud.

 Kaerwyn and Gaerwyn are a husband/wife team. I'm glad they told us that. Looking at their names, I would never have guessed that they were related.

 Asgardsen is an old friend and guildie from EQ-1 days. He recently got EQ-2 and created a ranger (naturally).

 Please keep Markillious in your thoughts as he goes through RL back surgery.

Greyland returned from France but is off again to Eiffelland for another two weeks.

 Bekkia, Ikux and Raychel have returned from vacation. You know that Ikux has been playing too much EQ-2 when he boldly walks to the edge of the Grand Canyon, confident in his 'safefall' ability.

Sesqui has recovered from his 'bad-puter' illness and is again regaling us with puns and muffins.



 

The new adventure pack has arrived, and those of us above level 55 have been enjoying the new zones and quests. Ferrit has already found 100 new ways to die .

Congratulations to Foxer on his officership. The hairy little halfling has been a HU guildie for many years. I hope he doesn't forget to bring the do-nuts (without foot-hair please) to the next officer meeting.

Welcome to Awlinis, the RL girlfriend of Ameal. For those that don't know, Ameal is an HU member from way back. I remember when his level 58 EQ-1 toon was the highest level in the guild.

Congrats to Saigeblossom on reaching level 70. It's unsure if her alt, Illustra, will see high level anytime soon. Illustra is in her third incarnation as a Fury. At least she picked the right class this time

Hayllie tells us she is getting married IRL. She also says we are all invited to the wedding although we have to find our own way to Quebec.

Check the message board for the guild status contest that starts on July 1, 2006.

See the message board for details of a Heroes Unlimited contest that runs the month of July. Our guild level will rise, and someone can win phat lewt... what more could you ask for? 

The new adventure pack is scheduled for release on June 14, 2006. Lots of new content and a major tradeskill revamp... should be great.

Welcome to Munia/Keeona. She was having so much fun that she got a new 'puter and now joins us permanently.

Speaking of 'puters, Sesqui's steam-powered Commodore 64 finally died. His back-up slide rule has insufficient RAM for EQ-2. He is with us on these boards, and hopefully will be back in the game soon.

Also welcome to Hayllie. She is a French-Canadian mother of two young boys (/wave from a fellow Canuck) just bubbling with energy.

On a Shakespearean note, welcome to Guildenstern. He's considering creating an alt named Rosenkrantz. Guildenstern recently came to EQ-2 after a stint in WOW.

The upcoming tradeskill revamp will make it MUCH easier for guild tradeskillers to make stuff for guildies. The guild now has 8 tradeskillers that can make anything your heart (and ingredients) desires.

Sage - Greyland
Alchemist - Muskeg
Jeweler - Carthaginian
Carpenter - Foxhunt, Alderthicket
Provisioner - Tundrabog
Tailor - Oakthicket
Woodworker - Bigcroaker
Armorer - Bludgeon

The only maxxed-out tradeskill we are missing is Weaponsmith. Inuit is currently at level 58 and rising.

Be sure to read Teller of Tales, for the latest Heroes Unlimited story.

Woot... we have a new guild website. Many thanks to Laot for organizing this.

We had a major push, and despite Sesqui's protestations to 'stoppit', we reached guild level 30!! Saigeblossom immediately moved into her new five-room house in South Qeynos. I hear that she is renting out the loft.

Welcome to our newest members.

Niiux and Ezette joined us just before taking a couple of months break because of their brand-new baby girl!!! WOOT.... what's that smell??? Diapers!

We'd ask you think about Markillious and Zanna as Mark undergoes some serious back surgery. We'll be here for you when you get back. Mark is an old Heroes Unlimited friend back in EQ-1 days when his guild was allied with HU.

Welcome to Piiloh RL son of Kariel. He was on last night, borrowing plat from Mom. We ARE a family guild after all.

It was great to see Keeona, sister of Raychel, daughter of Bekkia and Ikux, and my second cousin (just kidding about that part). Keeona was an HU member in EQ-1. She hopes to join us permanently when she gets a new computer --> gotta convince the fiance.

Yedi is a strong silent type. This means he's not related to Kusabana.

Greyland is off in France for a few weeks. He checks in once in a while, drinking wine at an Internet cafe
