So we spend hours and hours playing Gemstone...and although we have some negative experiences, we surely have good ones as well. (hey, we're still playing, right?) So here's the question...out of all the good times, what would you say were your most memorable moment(s)?

Mine include just about any ghoul masters hunt. It would be a bunch of us gathered down in the pit there (before they expanded that area with the tomb wights, there were only two rooms where the ghoul masters would be.) Stryka, Geion(Geijon), Ika, Elk, Cryheart, Mandy, Viandra..I know I'm forgetting some others but..it was a lot of fun..also Dovezkry and Keffal's (I think it was Keffal atleast) wedding. That was a blast...and last but certainly not least, my first hunt in fire mages!

There have been a few memorable gems I've stumbled upon in people's pockets (golden lute-painted topaz from Ilyan Cloud). But as for moments, some years ago I fogged in to help some people in an invasion at Anwyn. I don't remember the name of the beasts, but they made short work of me, then proceeded to tear my dead body to shreds and hide my body (along with others) in the shadows. People had to search out our bodies and people in the landing had no clue who to fog to because most were hidden.

Most of my memorable moments were with folks who are no longer in the lands or sold their souls. I moved to Pinefar in my mid-20s and had great times hunting with (the original)Yactaevia, (the original)Elendios, ad nauseum.

Harm None!! Do you know I forgot about the tree parties?! Tree parties were way fun...also hunting in zombies with Shylynne (I think) her husband..and Razcor...

Teras when the porch in the Village was a node and everyone used to hang out there....ahh I can go on and on... :(

My favorite moment was when i was hunting i think it was stone giants (maybe trolls?) in the landing with my sorcerer. I killed my first one rather easily as DC was a powerful spell then and so i howled and fell off this cliff and died. It was emberassing but pretty dang funny.

LOL

I think that's happened to everyone atleast once or twice...if not there, then on that ledge up by Pookas and Miners. I don't know if howling makes you fall off the ledge...but it used to be you couldn't pull someone or something.

I will have to say my being crowned The Edine by a gm was most likely my most memorable moment so far and if there are any unbelivers out there i would be glad to share the log ::grins::

as you can see The Earl Eddric has taken it upon himself to give his apology for his own ignorance in not referring to me as The Edine and in doing such has obviously made it know that all shall call me The Edine from this point on.

I've had alot of memorable moments...I think some of the few were Communing during the jant occupation of the landing...Me, Niomar, Savaard, and Bisco were all communing(well those of us could did) and we connected to V'tull...we we're asking him if he would grant us the power to expell the jants...and then a black scimitar came from the sky and smoted Bisco, and V'tull took over his body...said we were and killed us all...one by one anyone who walked into the room or fogged in for us was killed by the black scimitar...there was more deady people in our room then there was killed by the jant invasion, it was silly. Another funny time was when we had everyone believe Ardwen was having an action and tickets we're being sold...people were begging to be on the list or get a ticket...we said so many lies on the net...people we're loving it...I go away from the weekend and come back, to find out they added more to the story that i didn't know...that i robbed ardwen of all the auction coins and now was on the run. When i logged back in the game the first thing on monday..I had like 700 locates, people fogging to me threatening to kill me if I didn't pay ardwen back...man it was hilarous

I have a few memorable moments.. hunting trips with my father in game.. he always takes me to insanely high level areas and gets me killed but we always have a good laugh and it's exciting to test yourself like that against creatures.
Also one night Michiko, Whirlin, myself and Elronae and I think a few others were with Vif and we were discussing something in a private room.. when a GM was listening and started messing with Vif, she got killed and drug out of the room by some men (per GM involvement, Go Khaladon!) we had to go on a quest to find her body. After finding her, several very funny things happened. Vif was muttering about how the Gods are jealous of her and Michiko made the comment that at least no pigeons had landed on her..of course Khaladon had pigeons appear and perch on her dead form.. and then after someone else said at least they didn't poop on her..well then they did.. and before we knew it there were a flock of pigeons flying about over her head..it honestly had me laughing so hard I cried.. I gained a new respect for GM involvement that night becuase GM Khaladon gave all of us in Vif's group that night a lot of fun with his actions. It was priceless.

My daughter, Auraline,'s birth was very memorable as well. Also being knighted by IZalude in front of my family and friends was something I won't forget.

I would have to say for me, the Abandon Inn war, between the Black fists against the Temple Knights and Luna.

CvC fight that started with a few players, by the end of the night there were at least 50 players at war killing eachother.
Fun Fun Fun.

Ariond and I at the end of the war with someone..I forget who(I think the Black Fist). We were ordered to put an end to it, so we went and met with the two leaders(I forget their names). Anyway, we asked for peace, and they started using acts like:

(Soandso dies, like Ariond.)
(Soandso keels over and acts like Neff)

A lightning bolt came down from the sky and struck the both of 'em dead. we got peace.
