ill start from the beginning, i was sitting by the stablemaster outside DL and i had just come back from being afk and i noticed on my screen a convosation about how much a horse ride was, *a stranger* was talking to random lowbie hib.
i ask the random hib where did that stranger guy go, she said she thinks he went into DL, so of i go on a mission, i find this stranger just inside DL,(conned ylow to lvl 50 and was a hero) so i bow 2 him and say good day sir, he bows back and after 10 secs or so he asks me if i know anything about castles and architecture, i reply i know a few things, it depends wot u want to know, anyway we get chatting for a bit and i decide to show him around the DL castle, explaing things as i went ( makes a nice change to do a bit of roleplay :) ) we pass the master eldritchs, and he stops and gives the master eld a note, i start to ask questions, i found out he is from a place south of the bog of cullen even further than alain binn, where the bog is destroying his homeland, his town is called Thar dor, and he is looking at the land becose they have to move before the bog takes over there land, anyway he looks at the struture of the DL castle makes a few comments on how good it is etc.. and why certain things are that way. then he asks about a magnificent place he heard about , but he coudnt remeber exactly wot it was called, all he said was star, maybe dun star but he said he could not remember, i said the only magnifcent castles would be the relic keeps, and offered to show him one of them, he seemed happy, i explained about the relics and wot they do etc... and we start to leave DL, we get to the last gate and he stops, i tell him to follow mw and he says theres to many people about, i tell him not to worry i wont let them hurt you, he says lets sneak past... and lo and behold he goes and stealths, anyway we get past most of the people, a few did c him but didnt make any move to do anything at that time, and we proceed to the strentgh relic, he comments about how good it looks etc.. and when we get there he asks how to get inside, i tell him how and he shows a note to the gatekeeper, and we go inside, i asked him later wot the note was and he said it was just documents showing that he was not a enamy of the realm, ( at this point i get pm's from ppl asking who the stealthed hero was, i say we are at the relic keep, and then about 10 ppl turn up ) the stranger ( later found out that his name was Herada ) was not impressed about me leading him into a ambush, but i assured him that he would not be hurt, and we all sit down and ask him some qyuestions, manily about his town , wots going on there, can we go there, can we help , he said he was finding out how we live becouse of there problem with the bog and they are going to move north, he also seemed quite impressed and happy with the way hibernia was, and the way he was being treated ( he told me before that his kind had not been treated well when ppl had met them ) anyway we show him around the relic keep,then go back to DL he helps kill a stealthed norseman there, then we all go to dagda and show him the relics there, and to cut a long story a little bit shorter, he leaves , closely followed by hibbys, but eventually he loses the hibbys, he was going back to his homeland he said,
im sure i may have missed a few minor details but if there was anything i missed im sure one of the others who was there will post if it it was important.
overall he seemed to be most intrested in the castles buildings etc.. and quite often em'ed that he was looking at the craftsmanship etc.. of the walls/doors etc..
i also asked if i could get to his homeland, he said i could but if i didnt know the way i would never find it, may just be a cop-out or there may be a little village somewhere unexplored,
anyway just thought i would post it, it was intresting to take a break from the lemming tactic in emain :)

This must have been an NPC controlled by a person because there is no way he could have followed your actions even if his conversation was steered to guide you in the direction of the relic keeps (helping kill a norseman proves that point as that is a random encounter).

Maybe an event but of what type I do not know.

Lateral and off the wall thoughts:


  1. New event taking palce in the Bog of Cullen
  2. NPC retake of relics to even the balnce between realms again (I would need to check the Albion board to see if there was a similar post there)
  3. New castle/fort somewhere possibly in the Bog of Cullen
    [/list=1]

    BTW I bet there are a few heros wish they could stealth like him. and a few champs (me included). Maybe not the damage of that first PA but the damage output afterwards would be higher. Then I could go and play stealther in Midgard or Albion :)

quickly! to arms!!! raid the bog for this trecherous tribe of people, were going to be attacked, can you see any other reason? he checks out the structure and architecture of all our military installations etc... totally interested in things like our defensive capabilities.

and string up the master eldritch that took the note too :) obviously a spy for them, although i'd like to see someone able to get him :p

i vote that if any of these guys comes again we lead them into a middie ambush and let them "deal" with them :p

hehe serisouly though, sounded fun :) hope it heppens more often.

Hi !
Was one of the player that where in the group that meet the stranger in Dun Lams.
Saw Ebonn talk to him at Gate of DL. When I move near to him the stranger said something about too many people and then went invisible.

Later my group got informed that he is at relict keep, so we went there. After taking to the stanger and convincing him that we would not hurt him (as long he will not try to hurt us) we walked around with him. Poor guy if his home land is going to get eaten by the bog.

As Elf i can only say we are not Trolls that kill first and then ask. I know that does not work (without magic). But if i see the history of my country .... we must be carefull ... he looks like a norse... a fighter unabel to use magic ... and he can stealth ... what would happen if a stealthed army rushes in our land?
But we Elves also have learned to live with the Celts and why we should not learn to live with other human races?

I'm sure he was a spy ... but not sure if he was looking for our military strengths ....
And if his land gets destroyed by the bog are we save then? Do we know if there is not a dark power that destroy his land and if the dark power will run against hilbernia after that?
Think about what the prophet tell you.

I'm not sure what to do with the stranger. Keep an eye on them but don't be Trolls. Maybe we will need them.
Who knows when the time of Elves and Trolls is over and Human time starts....

/OC:
Nice event! Hope there comes more because RP will let me stay longer in this game

[15:51:27] Find cannot seem to move!
[15:51:27] You auto-face Norseman.
[15:51:27] You begin casting a Prismatic Sheen spell!
[15:51:28] a stranger attacks Find with his the Coruscating Truesilver Blade! <------ :)
[15:51:29] You cast a Prismatic Sheen Spell!
[15:51:29] Find already has that effect.
[15:51:29] Wait until it expires. Spell Failed
[15:51:29] Ebonn attacks Find with his the brilliant Baln's Black Diamond Rapier!

I know what that NPC is for!!!!

It's a contractor Mythic hired and lend to GOA to check on the current state of their keeps so they can be redone for the Shrouded Isles expansion!!!

:cool:


j/k..... I LOVE events!

Tell me more!!!

Strongly doubt GOA will touch the relic status... screwing around with that is pretty serious I think, judging how Mythic handles situations with relics.

It's Saruman lol. He's always in woods looking for a load of non-existant tripe. He said u couldn't follow him because he didn't want people to know that he secretly got slaughtered by a load of trees lol.

[EDIT] U should aheld him hostage and said U wouldn't let him go till GOA gave us the patch lol.

I was there for this too, and it was good fun :) Shame he stealthed away at the end and I couldnt find him or see where he went :/

There were a load of strangers outside CM today.... I gather these are the people looking for a new place to live.... or maybe they were just making an exp group.. :p

yesterday at about 23:00 gmt, my friend was on his way to coruscating mines, when he got there he pm'ed me saying there was 6 strangers standing out side CM. i donno what they were doin, i wasnt there to ask either but it could be linked somehow, any ideas?

edit:

I noticed this in a previous post,

[15:51:28] a stranger attacks Find with his the Coruscating Truesilver Blade! <------

coruscating truesilver blade, could explain something about what they were doin at CM.....not sure though

Great Story. Interesting.. it does sound very much like a spy scribbling notes and stuff.. and yet it could be genuine.. Maybe an envoy from the king.. Notes to Gate keepers and Master Eldriches?? U know like a statis report thing...

However the Siabhra lurk just beyond the veil and want 2 come and dispossess us from our home land so maybe this is their attempt to undermine us.. kinda like start a huge war with other realms wipe out Elves, Celts, Lurks, Firbys and reclaim our home land.. I LOVE CONSPIRACY THEORIES!!! YES YES YES!!!

The story of a new keep does sound most feasable.. with new quests... perhaps a new location for horses to go 2 from Innis.. (still with no bind point..)

Excellent.. i lone it. :)

Keep posting sightings of strangers.. when highlighted do they come up as Neutral? or friendly? or ??

I was sitting by the stepping stones just south of Howath sorting out some equipment on my druid, when I noticed 2 strangers run by and across the stones, heading east.

They ran faster than I could so I couldn't keep up, but by thier movement it looked like they were following a set route, like the horses do.

It was very wierd, like they were scouting out the area or something.

They conned Neutral to me.

Stranger and stranger... The plot is thickening..

Seen some bloke pulling the "stranger" in innis last nite and killing him every time he appeared.. lol

I must confess I am kinda rivited to this and want 2 see wot happens next. Any mention of this sort of thing on the US servers?

It's more fun to cast confusion on the Innis stranger, then stand back and watch him fight all the merchants. :clap: :clap: :clap:
