A Story Thing and a Lesson
by Mizu-No (7/19/00)
Soooo

There I was out of Turquoise in the Citadel near Kara

No one had any to spare so I LS recalled out to Mayoi to make a comp run.

As I traveled to the hidden mage academy I happen upon a Mud Golem. This normally does not excite me anymore but I am always in the mood for a mote.

At the Same time I ID a Fellow traveler named Gen. A 28th level staff fighter with a peerless staff with the major frost stone in it.

I ignored him.

Why?

Because I have just spent the last 4 days hunting next to him in the Citadel.

He was always kind and courteous, an all around ok chap.

I attack the Mud Golem with out fear.

But I have forgotten we are not in the Citadel anymore.

I hear a grunt

And my life takes a drastic dive.

The first thought was that the Golem had gotten s upper Crit because I had not equipped my shield.

So up comes the shield and,……

GRUNT

Another life dive.

(ASIDE NOTE: A dagger fighter has to assume things when fighting because the chat log moves to fast to catch text)

so I stop attacking the Golem to Heal.

While im healing I spot this fuzzy effect thing coming from behind me so I adjust my camera angle. And there is Gen

Hitting me with that big ass staff from behind. I turn to fight.

When im facing him he can only hit me one in 5 but it is always a rough hit.

I can hit him 1 in 5 too only it is for 3 Max (out of Turquoise means no BD for daddy)

I realize I am losing this one and attempt to break but he crits me on the way out and kills me. (this is what I expected to happen anyway)

I message him and tell him the usual Nice Fight and apologize for not making a better go of it cuz I was still in citadel mode.

He msgs me back and says “damn your from the citadel? Crap when you get back here (apparently he portal recalled) ill give you your stuff sorry.”

Im like kewl I knew he was alright.

I get the shopping done and after a small log off to avoid Drakon I get to the citadel.

There is Gen and he hands me my stuff for which I was greatful having lost my quick II ring to him.

Later in the evening I am fighting next to Gen just after a wave of Lithos came through like they do sometimes.

He starts hitting me. I am only taking 6-10 this time from him being that I in combat mode and ready for bear.

I tell him dude your auto targeting is tearing me up.

No answer

By now the 6-10 is starting to hurt . I figure he is lagging after hitting the attack button on accident and cant break. So I bail to the outside.

He follows

He attacks me again but I have healed to full and hit my shield with IMP he drops to 4-9 on the hits.

I ask him “Gen what are you doing?”

He tells “me you killed my Vassal.”

I go into combat mode and Greens and a mage and Copenhagen are standing there and they are telling him to knock it off.

He does not comply

Greens orders the mage to Imperil.

It sticks

Gen Breaks and run up the hill to avoid Greens Crossbow bolt.

Gen makes a big loop up the hill and back and 2 shots Green while he is reloading.

Turns on the mage and tags him back to the lifestone. I hit my attack button now because I can see now he is serious.

Gen runs up the hill again and Copenhagen is facing him down but Copenhagen is level 16 and Gen is level 28.

I do what my guys Do best

BAM!!!

Backstab attack X2 Damage

I stick Gen for 35

I stick him for 35

I stick him for 9 (don’t know what this was about)

I stick him for 30

He kills Copenhagen’

He dies after failing to heal.

I loot him for 2 Orbs.

When he returns I give his stuff back and explain that he is the second person I have killed on DT the First being a Blood in Kara.

So unless that Blood was his vassal he was mistaken.

He calls me Queer and Gay and Recalls out.

Later…

I am coming back from dying and I Portal recall in and there is Gen Standing there. I Bail out the portal before they can get a target on me.

A few minutes later out comes Gen saying” Whats up now bitch”

Right behind him is none other than Jubei

Yes The Jubie head of one of the nastiest PK monarchies on the planet.

I do what all people my level do in that situation. I log out and log in as Umbri and tell Silent “HELP!!!!!!”

I log back in as Mizu-no just in time to watch Silent show up and a couple of others show up Looking for Jubie.

Lesson:

Never trust ANYONE that is not source

 
response from Druss

Yup, he sure is. IN the Lug Citadel. When he first showed up Torch Blackstar told Gen "If you PK anyone in here, I will killm you 100 times"

Mare asked Gen why he said that.

Gen said "We used to be PK, now we are Neutral.

Um, that means PK to me loser boy. I'm watching you close.

I attack the Mud Golem with out fear.
But I have forgotten we are not in the Citadel anymore.

Sorry, I can't do this. You have better control than me.

Here's what I would have said. Those offended by strong language should close this message right now.

I'm not kidding.

I would have said....

"You FUCKING coward. You fucking level in the very ANTI citadel in peace, but you are still PK. You fucking COWARD you are never fighting at the citadel again you pk moron. Everyone there is going to know you are still PK, so don't think you are leveling in peace anymore. Coward. Loser. Piece of Shit."

Sorry, I hate people who say "Oh, I'm not PK any more (At least while I level here in safety. then I'll go PK again whejn I am not here, or have gained a few levels. That doesn't have anything to do with understanding DT and being able to be killed and saying Nice fighgt. It has to do with them lying, and being a coward, and using exploits to level in peace.)

He msgs me back and says “damn your from the citadel? Crap when you get back here (apparently he portal recalled) ill give you your stuff sorry.”

Translation - oh god, please don't tell anyone I am PK, I need to level some more without fear of being attacked because I am a loser.

Im like kewl I knew he was alright.

No, he is not alrright.

Just because Pking doesn't go on in the Citadel, doesn't mean that its ok to pk out of the citadel. Lug places are controlled by antis. That means only antis level there. You don't see any jubies or red devils or shollos there do you? Nope.

I get the shopping done and after a small log off to avoid Drakon I get to the citadel.

This is all cool and stuff, but when are you going to realize this guy is a total asshole?
