What ever happened to Spike the War Rat? Has he been seen in recent years?

I think he died/was killed.

Not like that stopped him before. But yes, as far as I know he hasn't been around for a while.

There is a Santa Clause. And a Santa Clause II.

Heh, I'm not sure what happened exactly but I know he's not around anymore.

Also I don't ever remember seeing Spike but I was around when he was. Weird.

Spike passed away in a fire, Ebondale. Here's a link to fill you in:

:(

Then he truly is dead. I used to have good conversations with Spike... Rest his soul.

I'm pretty sure that Spike died in the Bregandian War.

Someone please correct me, if I'm wrong.

Yep, Peam. I think it was at the beginning of the Bregandian war that Spike met his demise.

You can also toss into the official forums under Quests, Sagas and Events then further into Old Legends and Tales. He was recently discussed there in quite a bit of detail.

There's Muffy, Scooter, Jed, Freckles, Fang and Spike. You bet on them.

It's identical to the cricket racing in River's Rest.

Maybe Spike was made as a tribute to the original sewer-dweller, but I dunno.

Go down and west from the deck on the Cutter when you're going to and from River's Rest to Sol Haven, it's the really gigantic, big, enormous boat. You can't miss it.

Agreed. OOC ness in the guise of humor or base entertainment has always been an abundant flaw in GS.

Speaking of OOC, I seem to remember Spike using a derringer on occasion.

I remember Spike and the poor buggar getting killed. I've always wondered why everyone and everything else can be resurrected but not him? :?:

Spike wasn't supposed to be a small rat, he was supposed to be huge. He threw people around using his tail, if I remember some of the stories correctly. I don't really think it's that OOC.

I lost the log two computers ago, but a couple years ago a gerbil was seen by the temple. He would run away and hide from feline familiars, so I'd sunburst him and he'd hide... I'd sunburst and he'd hide... I'd sunburst then he'd turn me into a statue. He also turned quite a few other people into statues. Then he started wearing shrimp tails as hats.

Many other things happened, his TD was in the thousands, as was his DS. In fact, the only person that injured him was me, with spike thorn (long before thorn got nerfed.) He could also point at people and have a random extremity blow off. In one instance, he blew some poor bastard's head clean off his shoulders. People were calling him the next Spike, then all of a sudden he just scurried away. As fun as the gerbil was, I'd much rather have a war rat as a town defender.
