Oh my god… it’s ALIVE!!!!!

Hiyas all! It’s Beladi again with the What’s New in the Doom Brigade. As of this writing, we are slowly but steadily rising in guild level. We are at GL15 now, getting close to 16 and one step closer to our airship. We got a big boost from Kelemen recently when he, Veq, and Shiindyra were questing in Ataraxia and managed to pull an 1000 renown Legendary Victory while questing. Great job, guys! Chorya reported to me (a little late, but… /shrugs) that her character reached level 11 during a Tangleroot Gorge run with Kalalu and Ragnarokr.

We have a new member, in Valaneshka’s UO friend Alkazaralk. I performed another induction ceremony for Alkazar and for Val also (in her alt guise Elsabetha). So let me once again say Welcome to our newest friend. Elz, Alk, and Glew’s alt Otello have been adventuring around House Denieth sewer Depths, having a good ol’ time. I had a chance to start Necropolis, adventuring with Elsabetha myself (using Jysurra). We fought against the mummy Khnumhotep in the Tomb of the Crimson Heart, and I have to say that Valaneshka is one of the best roleplayers that I have quested with.

The Doom Brigade is planning a Player-vs-Player tournament in the coming weeks. Officer Glew is spearheading this event. He wants to have two separate contests, one for new level 4 characters (using non-magical weapons and armor) and one for established characters. Details can be found in the Events section of the Doom Brigade’s website (at www.thedoombrigade.eu). Any and all members interested in running around the arena bashing heads are welcome. Where else will you have an opportunity to layeth the smackdown on your new Queen and her officers?

Speaking of officers, I want to take the opportunity to welcome Pallanen to the Officers Corp. Pallanen has been a long-time member of the Brigade, and I expect that he will be a big help to us (once he finishes trudging through the sea of officers’ postings in the forums). Gratz again, Pally!

If you visit our guild’s website, you may notice a couple of changes. Forum admin Santus has been making some improvements. We have decided to drop the Class Table that listed what professions are more desireable to the guild. In its place, Santus has set up a listing of our recent member additions, so that others can see the names of our proud new recruits. Santus has also set up a Creativity Corner in the forums, which shows screenshots of our members as the quest around Stormreach and other artwork, plus excerpts from the stories authored by various Brigadiers. Next time that you are at the site, check out the goodies in Creativity Corner.

Well, that’s it for this week. Sorry about the delay, but I am getting ready for my birthday weekend so I have been a tad busy. Seeyas next week and thanks for tuning in!
