=== [[Ulgrim]] Rumors ===
During the Festivus event, Ulgrim was still found in [[Xarabydun]] but now wanted to try the local brew so he destroyed the lvl restricted portal and dug a tunnel to the town instead.<br>

:Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "All done and wanting for more dear barkeep."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "That's the stuff."</font><br>


Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm planning on grabbing one of those swords off the Tumerok Overlord. He never seems to run out of them... must have a stash of them somewhere."
:<font color=gray>Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Aw! None Left!"</font>


Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Do you think it's getting too weird around here?"
<font color=darkgoldenrod>
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hey! Welcome to the Xarabydun Pub! Grab a stool and let's have a drink to celebrate Gaerlan's defeat. I'm partial to Stout myself."<br>


Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Tell Let me give you a bit of advice my friend. Never look up a magician's robe, it ruins the surprise. Wait, or was it a magician's sleeve?"
:<font color=gray>Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Anam, a mug of Stout on my friend here! And my friends having..."</font><br>

:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I was telling my cousin the other day about this big tusker I saw while traveling across the barren plains. Now, when I say big I mean huge! This thing must have stood over 50 feet tall and it had this strange look in its eyes."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It tried to step on me, but I shockwaved it in the orbs and ran for it. Aliester didn't believe me at first, but I convinced him."<br>


Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Some monsters get stronger, some monsters get weaker. Just remember what ol' Ulgrim says when the health is down, fire is raining from the sky and monsters are clawing at his throat."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I finally got the Xarabydun entrance to open so I could visit my favorite Pub in Dereth. I'm enjoying Anam's fine establishment before heading back to Ayan. Aino was sad to see me go, but my life is one of adventure, excitement and drink."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Strong...weak. I'm the one with the wand."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Not necessarily in that order."<br>


Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've seen some strange things here on Dereth, but why in the world would I want to fling things around with some dead git's extremities?"

:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm Ulgrim and I'm a mage."


Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I can't sleep in Ayan anymore. I came out here to try and get some rest at my friends place, but I'm still having the bad dreams. I think maybe it's time to head back to my house for awhile."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You doubt my chess abilities? Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Yuri, Bobby, Trumper, Blue?"

:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Have you seen some of these people's names? So... their mother was really a mule? So they can't reproduce then? That's probably for the best."</font>

Town Crier tells you, "Yanshi might seem free, but can we ever be truly free of the Harbinger?"
Town Crier tells you, "Stay away from the really big Tusker. I hear that they are incredibly strong and brutal."

Town Crier tells you, "The arcanum has built new Residential Quarters. They are accessible from Khayyaban, Lin and Samsur. Since our town is destroyed, maybe we can commute from there?"

Ulgrim Rumors

During the Festivus event, Ulgrim was still found in Xarabydun but now wanted to try the local brew so he destroyed the lvl restricted portal and dug a tunnel to the town instead.

Ulgrim motions the bar for more stout.
Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Anam my good man, keep 'em coming!"
Barkeep Anam says, "Sure Ulgrim, why don't you finish what you have first."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "All done and wanting for more dear barkeep."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "That's the stuff."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Aw! None Left!"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hey! Welcome to the Xarabydun Pub! Grab a stool and let's have a drink to celebrate Gaerlan's defeat. I'm partial to Stout myself."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Anam, a mug of Stout on my friend here! And my friends having..."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I was telling my cousin the other day about this big tusker I saw while traveling across the barren plains. Now, when I say big I mean huge! This thing must have stood over 50 feet tall and it had this strange look in its eyes."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It tried to step on me, but I shockwaved it in the orbs and ran for it. Aliester didn't believe me at first, but I convinced him."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I finally got the Xarabydun entrance to open so I could visit my favorite Pub in Dereth. I'm enjoying Anam's fine establishment before heading back to Ayan. Aino was sad to see me go, but my life is one of adventure, excitement and drink."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Not necessarily in that order."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I was writing spell on this scroll"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "An ah shallow shark was like Grrrr Grrrr Grrrr"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "And then, like half my scroll was gone...and I was like..."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Unnhh?"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It devoured my spell... was a really good spell and then I had to write it again and I had to do it fast, so it wasn't as good..."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's kind of....."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "a bummer."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm Ulgrim and I'm a mage."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You doubt my chess abilities? Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Yuri, Bobby, Trumper, Blue?"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Morons."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I went and played on the new chessboards yesterday. I beat everyone there; even that old chess champion Large Red. You may now call me Ulgrim Chess Grandmaster or just his Highness if you prefer."
Ulgrim pauses.
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Eddie the Crazy?"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I have heard some weird names, but..."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "What were your parents thinking?!"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Have you seen some of these people's names? So... their mother was really a mule? So they can't reproduce then? That's probably for the best."
