Aerich, Human - Level 10 Bard
Well, I've come to a temporary dead end in the Fellowship of Light quest, needing to go to a nearby mountain, and not feeling up to the task. I did, however, kill quite a few moat rats. I'm not up to the Dread camps, though... I actually tried to go after the shield of Fellowship quest. I killed everything, got all the way to the top of the West tower, and then Bonebreaker lived up to his name. I came to back by the South tower, minus some experience. I decided to just putter for a while and make up the lost experience, then decided to call it a night.

Sing a happy tune!
Aerich, Human - Level 8 Bard
Galiendra gave me a hand. Actually she just gave me a ton of armor. And a decent weapon for when I hit level 6 and started dual wielding. My songs don't work like songs, more like spells. However, instead of getting better at abjuration and conjuration, I'm just getting better at singing. Who knew?
Actually, the offhand weapon Galiendra gave me was soon surpassed when I found a longsword of Wisdom on some skeleton I killed... that's better than what I had. Before that I was using an obstinate light pick. I went through the Sword of Fellowship quest in one try. I entered the tower level seven and came out level eight. I killed everything in that tower. I didn't miss a single enemy.
Soon I'll start taking on moat rats and then, goodie, I get to start camping the dread stalkers. Maybe get even more dread armor. Nothing will match the efficiency of Galiendra cleaning those damn camps out, however. She can clean out all three camps in under ten minutes. Her flying Tiger kick will wipe out an entire camp if they get close enough.

BIG WALL TIME
Galiendra, Halfling - Level 15 Monk, Level 5 Druid
Okay, learned several things.
Free version not only has a level 5 cap for secondary professions, but a level 15 cap for primary. So here I am, as powerful as I can possibly become... although, that's nothing to sneeze at. I am unstoppable! Well, not quite.
I also decided to secondary as a Druid. That was a mistake. Druids can't learn healing spells! Rangers can, oddly enough. Oh well.
I have a wicked collection of dread armor, including an amulet, a belt, a bracer, and a freaking earring.
Oops. Gotta go.

A change in pace
Message from Mike: Because Jess and I are without internet, and I hate playing it on the iBook, I'm temporarily without Minions of Mirth online access... however, it can be played single player without an internet connection! So, from the player world of Jericho, I give you:
Galiendra, Halfling - Level 10 Monk
Yeah, that's right. I'm kicking ass, taking names, and what all. I've got my rat tail belt, the swift fist (the first Monk ring) and a rat fur bracer. Both the bracer and ring are "Premium" artifacts, so I can't really use them. Someday I will, however. It's rather funny. I've gotten this far and I haven't used a single advancement point yet. I think I'm waiting for something big to happen, whatever that may be. I've done the south tower quest for the Sword of the Fellowship (not that I'll use it), but I still have to do the West tower quest for the shield (not that I'll use that either). Then I'm hoping to collect some dreadscale, and then I'm going to try my hand in the Trinst Sewers... Somewhere down there is the second ring, and by God, I will have them all someday. Even if I can't use them.
Yeah... and I have to go to Mount Zharim or whatever it is called. Not looking forward to THAT jaunt.
So far I have my basic attack, my kick attack, "Rescue" which only allows me to help others, and since I'm alone here, it's not going to get used that much. I have invigorate which completely heals me in a pinch, stoneskin which massively increases my resistance to physical damage, and Dragon Kick, which instantly does 600 damage to anybody close enough. I ususally take down Stinker in one attack with this little gem... too bad the reload time on it sucks.

Well... that was a dull evening
Liandra, Human - Level 10 Revealer, Level 4 Monk
I got to the same freaking point as the others in the Fellowship of Light quest - have to make a run to Mount Whatsitcalled. I also spent some time killing moat rats, including killing Stinker, the Moat rat leader. He did manage to kill me once, however. I also died during my one and only attempt at attacking the camp where I could get more dreadscale. I have some dreadscale Mokuba gave me... still not talented enough to fix it, though.
I got lucky and my second bat for the night dropped a fang - the reward was information regarding the locations of the second and third rings, as well as the first ring itself! Only one problem. You guessed it - I have to be a "Premium" something-or-other to equip it! My damage has gotten better. I'm not sure if it is because my fist skill has improved or because my Monk level has increased. Oh well. It's going to be tough once I resume gaining levels as a Revealer. I don't learn any new spells until 15... and I was hoping to go into the Trinst Sewers in search of the second ring... oh well.

Not exactly mind blowing
Liandra, Human - Level 10 Revealer, Level 1 Monk
I decided to go a different route from my companions. I decided that being able to defend myself bare handed was the way to go. Only one problem - I suck at it. Oh sure, my skill levels in fists and dual wield are improving rapidly, but I'm taking a tidy bit of damage in the process. I do have my first Monk quest, however. There are six monk rings. Before I can learn about how to get the first three, I have to prove myself by collecting certain items. I have three of these items, but I'm missing a bat fang, and I'll be damned if they aren't rare drops. I got tired and headed home for the night, but I'll try to look for one tomorrow.

Something Different
Mokuba, Dwarf - Level 10 Barbarian, Level 2 Shaman
Deacon was telling me about his Multi-classing experience, and I decided to give it a try. I looked through the tomes we had in the bank that make spells more powerful, and decided that becoming a bard was probably my best bet... until I found out that Dwarves can't be bards. Apparently our fingers are too stubby and our beards get caught in the harpstrings. After a bit of mulling over, I decided to go with Shaman. I didn't have any power-up tomes for Shaman spells under level five, but I figure, we've got one Cleric, so it's time to diversify... plus I wanted to be able to heal myself. If we ever do upgrade to premium or whatever that is, I'll be able to summon animal pets to help me in battle... that'll be so freaking sweet!
I got to the same point in the Fellowship of light quest as Deacon... needing to travel to that damn mountain. Not going to risk that yet, let me tell you. I've decided to work solely on gettin my Shaman skills to fifth level so I can stop worrying about it. THEN I'll resume becoming the bad-ass barbarian I was meant to be!
The other day I dropped a HUGE chunk of change buying a bow, some arrows, a fletching kit, and the stuff to make more arrows... the only problem is, with an Archery ability of 1, my arrows only go about 5 inches. I can't actually shoot anybody until they're on top of me! So much for hoping it would help me pull enemies from a distance. I don't know if I'll ever be able to get Dreadscale.
One other nice thing: as a Shaman, I can summon food and drink. No more pricey trips to the inn!
