2/18/2009 - Hero Token Drop in the Marketplace Edit
- On February 18, 2009 during the evening (roughly 6:30 pm on FF) +Turbine Geneva went to each server and dropped hundreds of Hero Tokens in the Marketplace.
- This act was not an official apology for the recent server instability and authentication server problems:
It wasn't repayment or an apology for the recent issues, that decision is made by higher-ups in the food chain than myself. It had been awhile since I visited Dereth but sadly my time was very limited, that's the reason for the quick visit.
I hope to have something scheduled for the near future involving more than dropping some tokens and baby chickens to slaughter the unsuspecting level 5, 295 burden mules in the Marketplace grabbing a token.

Encounter with Velesin on FF Edit
After the events in the graveyard, Rhesus of Frostfell had an encounter with Velesin the Black.
- Velesin the Black tells you, "During my battle I sensed your healing touch, yet I cannot help feel that perhaps the gesture was somewhat mercenary. None the less, will you speak with me?"
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Gladly."
- (Player)Velesin the Black (17.17N, 101.88W)
- Velesin the Black has teleported you.
- You tell Velesin the Black, "You don't belong in this time or place and it is a disturbance that brings you here."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "It is my objective to preserve time and events."
- Velesin the Black tells you, "That is perceptive of you. My time has long passed."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "I'm very sorry I failed you."
- You bow deeply.
- Velesin the Black tells you, "I apologize for bringing you to this dark place, but it is easier for me to resist... the book in this, my lord's tomb."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "I don't understand."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Are you under some foul influence?"
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Is there some way the book's spell can be broken?"
- Velesin the Black says, "Yes, when the corruption takes me I am driven to slay the living, as many of my lord's servants are above us."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Can we mount an assault on the one cauing you to rouse from your eternal rest?"
- You tell Velesin the Black, "I and my compatroits will do anything we can to help put you at rest."
- Velesin the Black tells you, ""The dark sorcerer who did this has waned in power over the years, and I sense he no longer possessed the... tome.""
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Then who does? This fiend will pay for his wielding the tome!!"
- Velesin the Black tells you, "I can sense no way up into my lord's castle, but if a way does open I beg you to find his corrupt champions and destroy them."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "This is an affront. It pulls Martine from a time when madness still gripped him into our place. It brings vexation to our Queen. It causes dischord in our land and I will not stand for it."
- You bow deeply.
- Velesin the Black tells you, "But I do not think you will find a way open this moon. Perhaps not the next. But in time."
- You say, "Thank you for your time - thank you."
- You say, "We will be watchful - and we will wait."
- Velesin the Black tells you, "Perhaps I was wrong about your... nature. You are insightful. Will you accpet a reward; a small token?"
- You tell Velesin the Black, "I will do my best to give you and your kin peace from this beast."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "If it be your will."
- (Trophy)Mana Forge Key (17.17N, 101.90W)
- You bow deeply.
- You say, "Thank you so very much ."
- You say, "Others helped."
- You say, "I will pass it along."
- You say, "I need to tell my compatriots of what I've seen and heard here."
- You say, "Everybody needs to know."
- Velesin the Black tells you, "So many living... it is hard for me to remember the living."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "We are not all warmongers. Go in peace. As much as circumstance allow."
- You bow deeply.
- Velesin the Black tells you, "the corruption will take me again soon. If I return, I will not be able to reward those who help me. Destroy me, I will not have the will to fight the corruption"
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Please don't ask that."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Will you arise again if I do?"
- You tell Velesin the Black, "I don't want to torment you more."
- Velesin the Black tells you, "I do not think I will truly be destroyed. At least not yet"
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Is it your wish I destroy you?"
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Because I do not wish it for you."
- Velesin the Black tells you, "This moon, yes."
- You tell Velesin the Black, "Pleae forgive me then."

- You say, "Please, be well."
- Velesin the Black says, "Farewell"
- You say, "I'm away!"
Ghostly Appearances on LC Edit
Ancient spirits of Mhoire Castle have risen in the graveyard.
An event occurred on LC in the graveyard. The special character Velesin the Black was present. Tiger King dealt the killing blow against Velesin, while Flash Bwsun dealt the most damage and gained the looting rights. Flash reported 3 MFKs on the corpse.
A Spirit of Mercy was present at the event.
Ghostly Appearances on WE Edit
A global went out that a spirit was roaming the Graveyard. When arriving, people quickly found Velesin the Black, a low-level ghost, quickly being assaulted by the humans searching for the answers. Velesin fought back, with help from some individuals seeing no reason for the violence against the spirit, but was overwhelmed after some time.
Velesin then reappeared at Redspire, quickly brought down by the assaulting force. As the dust settled, the people wondered what had truly happened.
Velesin, happy for the help from those at his appearances, laid Mana Forge Keys upon the ground especially for their pickup, sending tells to all those who aided him.
Velesin the Black tells you, "Thank you for healing me. I have left a key for you in the graveyard in a small tomb closest to the Ghostly Gravedigger"
In addition, he brought 2 individuals to the chamber of Lord Mhoire, wherein a small conversation took place before the second arrived.
You say, "Sorry we couldn't help more."
Velesin the Black tells you, "Many of the spirits that once served Cynreft are corrupted. It is the wont of the living to destroy them."
You bow deeply.
You say, "Indeed. Not every soul is tarnished."
Velesin the Black tells you, "Yet there are times when I am lucid..."
You say, "We all are, at times."
Velesin the Black tells you, "Someday soon the living will find a way up to my lord's castle"
Velesin the Black tells you, "But not this moon"
Velesin the Black tells you, "Perhaps not the next"
You say, "Hopefully, help can be given to those inside."
Velesin the Black tells you, "Perhaps"
You say, "We shall see, when the time comes."
You say, "Thank you again, and sorry for the barbarism you encountered from those who do not stop to ask."
Hopeslayer Assaults Holtburg on LC Edit
Mad Cows were reported in Holtburg. Soon, Bael'Zharon appeared. He was first an NPK, then PK, then he disappeared. Hordes of Shadows (level 26) appeared in holtburg, followed by Obliterators. Bael'Zharon returned, along with more shadows of various types and Shadow Vortexs. BZ eventually appeared as an attackable monster, and was defeated after a long fight. Za Quest dealt the killing blow, and there is a claim that Eminent also did, which may be possible given the lag and number of projectiles. A Spirit of Mercy was present during the end of the fight. After the Hopeslayer was killed, the remaining Obliterators and Shadow Vortexs were cleared and with no other spawns, special characters, or reward items, the event was over.
Bael'Zharon says, "You will fear me!"
Bael'Zharon says, "I sahll return for your blood!"
Bael'Zharon says, "I am just toying with you all... for now"
Bael'Zharon says, "Weak fools!"
Martine appears in Marketplace on HG Edit
Martine appeared in Marketplace and a fight ensued. Shortly into the fight players stopped fighting and tried interacting with Martine who then stopped fighting also.
Martine says, "This is not right. The time is wrong. This place is... different. What has that foole mage done now? Hush, you know you are crazy. I am not!"
Martine begins laughing, a low raspy giggle, the laughter grows to a cackle and suddenly ceases.
Martine says, "It hates the sounds around it, and grows angrier and angrier!"
Martine says, "You..."
Martine says, "You seem familiar"
Martine says, "I have felt your... no it cannot be"
Martine says, "Make the voices stop!"
Martine says, "The fool mage does not know what he has done"
Martine says, "perhaps the voice is right. Perhaps the death will keep them quiet...."
Martine says, "But who's death? The others? The ones here?"
Martine says, "Must... try... make... stop..."
Martine giggles
Martine lifts a hand before his face.
Martine says, "Yes... death makes the quiet come...."
Martine knocks Erigor into next Morningthaw!
Martine smites Gt mightily!
Martine brings Ambers Soul to a fiery end!
Jax is incinerated by Martine's assault!
Martine says, "You were warned!"
Gt died!
Arbo died!
Flaming arrow died!
Martine says, "I grow tired of this charade. I must see what lies ahead... or behind... or ARGHHHHHHHH!!!! SHUT UP!!!!"
At this point Martine portalled away.
Then Asheron appeared.
Asheron says, "I fear I am too late here"
Asheron says, "These distortions in portal space appear to be worsening"
Asheron says, "I do appreciate your efforts in trying to stop the madman"
Asheron says, "I will summon a spirit to aid in the removal of the penalties you may have incurred during battle"
Asheron says, "Please stand aside"
Asheron says, "I do hope this spirit is helpful. As I must return to my lab, I do thank you for your efforts."
Asheron says, "I hear masses of creatures have also been spotted, so be wary of the areas you would normally be"
Asheron says, "I must return now. Be well!"
A Spirit of Mercy appeared to remove people's vita.
