Recently we lost our top pal and top member, Brother Baler. As the candle burns down in the Temple of Quellious that we lit for him, we are realizing that he is gone for good. Given this is a guild about pals and brotherhood, not pixels, this is a completely irreplaceable loss.

He was a very long time community member, truly immersed and definitely one of the most dedicated and skilled pals you could ask for. Given he went down fighting for what he believed in and upholding Father Erud's teaching, I guess I wouldn't have wanted him to go any other way but this was too early.

Brother Baler was more excited for an actual EQ with RP-lite guild standards that was member, environment and member focused than you would believe. He was one of the few good people in Norrath and truly appreciate of our efforts to recreate that immersive part of EQ that is really what the game is about, and not some angsty passive aggressive pixel farm contest. He'd continue to tell you that you'd catch more bees with honey in a Norrath that simply uses people like this.

I would erase all of my characters and pixels to get him back. I will try not to think of all the adventures we could have had that no longer will be. There was not a day he wasn't slapping fives in with us in guild chat celebrating our victories over foolish Antonicans and memes we created in the process. He was always a guiding light for new members. He was the best of us. I know I will see him again one day and he is smiling down, probably reading these forums and not signed in.
A touching sermon. May the honorable Brother Baler rest in power ✊🏿

The quest will go on without Lord Aradune

It's what he would have wanted

Dr. Nirgon is a saint, a true pal, and a eq historian.

I will just chime in to say I was really surprised you guys didn't have a bunch of characters named didndonuffin or trayvon skittles.

How big dog feels with his talented, intelligent, RP immersed croots

.... instead of being around DISGUSTING ANTONICANS like the one above

(We did report the Erudite wizard named Ojsimpson and cleric named Dindubuffins)

I got no problem with your hotep roleplay. Though that you had names like that apping contextualizes my low expectations.

They didn't app, they were spotted and reported on launch in Toxx forest before they got lvl 2. Get a grip. Contextualize some reality and common sense.

Sorry writing app there makes it sound like I think you encouraged them, I don't. I just assumed that was your interaction. Point being of course people were naming their Erudites that shit and that's what you'd expect. I figured that was the same thing with you guys but instead you roleplay as hoteps/black israelites/whatever.

I don't think they intend any such thing. They're roleplaying as Erudites. Norrathian Erudites from Odus. There is no Africa or pan-African history in Norrath. They roleplay as the most intelligent mortal race on Norrath, with a history of their own.
