I Felt a Ripple in the Pond

I thought long and hard about posting this to my personal blog, or here on my gaming blog. This post has been drafted in both, but I decided to put it here for the latest "ripple" hit a bit closer to my gaming passion.

Roquer DiOrsae

Publish 106 brings with it a chance to have a Player's design of a Custom Castle added to the Housing Tool. Dragging Tandy and Kirthag over to the Test Center to tinker around, I came up with two submissions again for the contest. This is the first of them, the Roquer DiOrsae.

Reunion Pt. 3

Dragging another crate of goods into the ship's hold, Kirthag ponders what to do with this lot. Several crates are destined for her home port of Yew, but some of them go to other places. Despite what others may think, the Celt is fully aware that all the cities need their supplies - she just doesn't have the time or the energy to go sailing all over the world with these crates.

Falling Through Floors

Part of a series of entries related to Decorating in Sosaria. This entry explains how to avoid an issue where large decor items from a deed will appear to fall through a floor made of crafted pavers. Exampled herein is the Large World Tree area rug.

Reunion Pt. 2

The pick axe swings in a wide arc, slamming into the frozen mountain of Dagger Isle. Walrus and polar bears meander off in the distance as the faint echo of an Ice Troll's call reverberates along the icy cliffs. Tandy glances over her shoulder to make sure her giant beetle is still snuffling in the snow near her, then her pick axe swings that wide arc again.

Reunion

Kirthag sat in her office, rifling through the ledgers and parchments scattered about her large desk. Accountings from the vendors, funds for the community center, requests for services, drafts for additions to the museum. With a grunt, she shoves another pile of scrolls to one side, frowning in her frustration. The paladin slams her fist onto the cleared area when there is a cough at the door.

Llama Head Pointe

There is a bit of a poignant feeling when one reads over old tomes, and comes across the memories of happier times. A girl misses running a tavern, having the populace come and tell stories of their adventuring, sharing a mug of ale, laughing at one another and basically having a good time. 

Stronghold

Here is the second Customized Keep I submitted for the Publish 105 Housing Contest for Ultima Online. This one is simply called Stronghold. It works great here at this lonely point (located due south of the City of Trinsic along the southern seashore).

Highland Manor

Publish 105 brings with it a chance to have a Player's design of a Custom Keep added to the Housing Tool. Dragging Tandy and Kirthag over to the Test Center to tinker around, I came up with two submissions for the contest. This is the first of them, the Highland Manor.

Breaking Stairs

Perhaps the best part of Sosaria is having a HOME. A real home, that you can decorate and hoard your stuff in. You can dictate a seasonal flair, or simply hide everything away in chests. Create a museum, hotel, tavern, or a shop. And the best aspect of having a home in Sosaria, is customizing it!
