Brandon Wrote:sKunk has a penchant for killing miners at Mt Kendall. He'll paralyze, create a stone wall square, and then summon a demon. He'll then stand there like a dope until he has banked his ill-gotten ingots. Day before yesterday he managed to die by what I can only assume was his own energy vortex. I managed to loot his reg bag and a recall rune. I gave the bag of regs to Ayleth and kept the rune.
Yesterday I saw him outside the mine after he had managed to kill another miner. I quickly ran to the bank to gather my pouch containing a few regs and a spear. I went to the mine and saw he was gone. I then recalled to his safe spot which I learned of after looting the recall rune earlier. He was standing out in the open AFK as a criminal. I quickly dispatched him with a few blows from my spear. I obtained nearly 100 of each reg and 100 bandages.
I recalled to Britain bank and a newly blue sKunk appeared. He began to shout for the guards. sKunk quickly realized his attempt was futile so he ran away.
He's a special person.
Honestly, I love this sort of thing about UO. It's what makes UO different to WoW and other games. The brutality, the fighting and adversity, PvP isn't just people dueling, it's people trying to one up each other in succession. I actually miss the days of IN1 where Minoc mines was more or less constantly under PK attack during certain hours and there would be big battles on the bridge when order showed up.
