Vinner, of course you are the most fun 1v1er... but I miss some of the past players. Cahboom, I don't recall if he was ever sober.
Also Vinner, I am waiting for you to do one on me. Urg's was awesome but I was very much anticipating you doing me... in THAT way and in the way of this thread. I was curious how my story would be told in your epic language.
And yes, we need to mention Seredir. I left him out of my posts because I still play w/him regularly. Although an interesting part of that story is that we used to hate each other, until one day we grouped up and wrecked people.
Regarding Khaotik/Dracen... I never played w/Khaotic but I saw Dracen do more things with his LM than anyone. The 2v1 is supposedly true, as is his solo defeat of a group of 5 creeps. But most impressive is the spawn of LMs that he had as disciples: Winn, Sowen, Gariador (I think? Or maybe Gari taught Dracen... neither would surprise me) and even yours truly... Katsimbalis. Dracen was one of the first LMs to experiment with different legendary staffs/books in the moors and would interchange them regularly depending on what he was up to. He's one of the few people whose skill I truly respect...
Strangely enough, I have played on Brandy, E, and Windfola extensively. The people I respect the most for their skill at this game all came from Gladden. Huh.
It's np, it's ok cuz u pleasure me with ur shlong. Dang right about Gladden tho mmm, not so much these days, but def back in the day. I know, Dracen was a great lm, I'm just saying Khaotik innovated a lot in prebk12 and never got appreciated it for it cuz he was never in the popular kins. I just think he was the better of the 2 in prebk12 and into book 12ish, don't know about the later on because Khaotik didn't play really on his lm extensively after that all too much, just his reaver. As to who taught who, I'm fairly sure u r correct that Dracen was the master of Winnwyn, definitely Sowen, and Kangastan. As to making one about you, yeah I'll get to that heh. I just figured since Urg made one I'd hold off on my interpretation of you and work on others. Getting barraged here , appreciate all the thoughts by others tho on people.

That was one of the only moors battles that has a youtube video associated with it.
Epic Battle - "Strike from the Shadows"
Whilst a mixed group of Soldiers and Dark ones was camping Glan Vraig and the army of Ootyfast, a covert stealth counter-force arose from the shadows. Late at night, a band of drunk burglars co-operated to melt creeps in a manner of seconds. The call was sounded: "Strike from the Shadows!" and a creep target would die before it could even be bubbled. Many a creep fell to the blade of the burglar's dagger, and the exploits were recorded on video to live for all time.
Yeah, will copy it in.

My take on a couple more Gladden legends:
Sowen has been mentioned already, but I'll add my two cents. He was a warleader's NIGHTMARE. If Sowen was on you, good luck getting any heals off in those days of no newfangled stances and traits to give inductionless heals.
Grakrat/Yandros - One of my old Red Sun Rising officers. He was one of the funniest people you could hang out with, miss that guy.
Clown - Back when I first started on the moors in Vol1 Book 13, he could still be found on a guard named Fair. I got to know him when he joined my (at the time brand new) tribe on his warg Pet, but he truly came into his own as Clown the minstrel. My most epic memory of him is of him and some buddies running around when he was around level 40ish on his minstrel, dressed in cosmetic clothing, wielding shovels and other goofy weapons from the Shire, chasing me around outside TR when I was giving Aristeides' baby reaver his Grams map tour on his very first day on the Gladden moors before he actually transferred his cappy. It was surreal, hilarious, and very much in keeping with what appears to be Clown's battle philosophy: if you're not having fun with it, don't bother. These days we have to share custody of him with Riddermark (grrrr) but he can still be found here and there.
Others who need writeups:
Push/Shovo
Gunnor
Perchelm
All those other brave minstrels who healed against The Blender back in the pre-Moria days, but I can't remember most of their names anymore. And a lot of them were female. There was Fruito, and some other whose character name started with Sh-something I think, and Gunnor's wife I think but I can't remember her name at all, started with a T maybe?
Yeah Sowen was mentioned Urg, but not an actual wiki for him. Omg, fruito and grak, I forgot lol, but still remembered. Gunnor's wife was Tahi. Copied Clown's and Grak's.
