Before anything, if this is in the wrong place, feel free to move it!! Hello there UOR! Name is Lox. Formerly (And currently, sort of) of Chesapeake!! In a past life, I was a long standing member of Ultima Online. A man of many shards such as Chesapeake, Great Lakes, Lake Superior, Catskills... And more. A mage by trade, A pvper at heart. I have been casted into this new "Shard" of Sosaria with a wealth of knowledge but a weakened and frail body, a foggy memory of the old lands & their governing rules, and a bank account as empty as my stomach!! The good news is... it seems as though some of my past guildmates have been sent here with me. Some of their names include Broli, Necro, Amitlu, and, a very skeptical Army. Although unsure how we arrived here, we have been presented with quite a challenge, it seems. Previously ruling over the lands of Felucca across serveral different "Shards" in the past, this seems to be yet another challenge for "The Fallen Legacy", also known as UHOH. Armed with nothing more than past knowledge and a rather large novel known as "The Compendium" upon arrival, the journey begins for these brave mages and warriors. Will they ever live up to their previous stature? Will they meet new friends along the way? Maybe meet old friends who have been casted here as well? Or perhaps old enemies? Will they make more enemies? How did the warriors of UHOH even get here? Punishment? Greed? A bad gate travel spell by Necro? A GM mad at Broli for beating him in poker? A hole in "The Roof" that we fell through? Only time will tell. Whatever the reason, perhaps, it is Destiny... - Lox, One of the Founding Members of The Fallen Legacy [UHOH]
Welcome to UOR! I made a thread a while back so people could tell who they were and where they played in the past in hopes to find old friends. Check here http://uorforum.com/threads/ultima-online-lost-and-found.6767/ and maybe you'll find someone you once knew.
Great post Lox! Hope to see you around the landscape. Expect Jupiter to comment shortly! ::leaves a trail of Balron droppings for the old man to follow::
@Loxness Welcome! Finally another Cheese peak player! (Chesapeake) Hardy Blackrock in 99-2001 same name on great lakes and lake superior for the same time period. Lumberjack warrior. I GMd lumberjacking manually three times Here,have some fitness quotes superimposed over liqour ads to give you the motivation to get through the first tough week or two on a new shard. This is the greatest shard i have ever played,and ive played many including OSI ,the original,and the community here and how it all works,the mechanics and rules.. overall this is the closest ive come to how i felt when i first put in the ultima online CD and yelled when anyone picked up the phone and cut my connection haha. If ya need a LARGE house for a group of people to train/live in rent free, PM me ill co-own the lot of ya.
Welcome to your final destination! If I happen to get into possession of some of your goods at some time in the future, it's not stolen, it's just borrowed!
Welcome Lox and friends! Should you find yourselves in need of equipment of higher quality than the local town provisioners can provide, do not hesitate to contact me! The Great Council will happily part with pieces from its armory to help new adventurers in the land. Should you need some advice or information, that can be had, too. Again, welcome!

*A raven cries as it flies over the crossroads where Jupiter's messenger delivers a message to the fallen* Your timing is impeccable and you are joining in during a fine time of rejuvenated activity. While I expect the premise of your history to be naturally troublesome for the Village of Paws, I welcome you to the community. You will find my persona in game and on forums deliberately a bit different. A necessity in these times of strained shard ppulations. Feel free to PM me with any questions of lore. Ill provide what information I can. Make sure you fill u the Salty Dog Tavern with tales of your exploits. *the messenger walks away casting frequent and wary glances over his shoulder*
I figured it out. You are called jupiter because your charisma and charm have the same pull as the massive gravity of jupiter the planet! Im learning more and more about you, crooked but kind wizard. For example, why slay a balron with a shepherds crook? You never do anything without reason..i will figure you out one day,ancient one. Untill then, i merely tip my hat and bow before you and admit that i was wrong, your back may be crooked but your mind is sharp,and your heart filled with kindness. *awkwardly makes a hasty exit through a tunnel*
You will find many well wishers here and I will add mine as well. Welcome to UOR!!! It is a glorious land and look forward to having your group part of the community. You will not be short for help, just ask away. I can be found on IRC at various times.
