Introduction Playing a tamer character in UO is a unique experience, being a partnership between player and pixels. Many otherwise level-headed players will admit that, while their head tells them it makes no sense, their heart harbours a totally illogical affection for the bunch of pixels that constitutes their favourite pet.

Spell casting skills fall within two distinct groups, the main group are true magic casters, in which some form of casting skill is their main offence and defence.

On Wednesday, August 19th, that is exactly what he did. At an informal and likely treasonous Council gathering, Ozog invited the Britannian governors and Pitmuck goblins to celebrate what he called a “bloodless coup”. Several governors did, in fact, attend–which will no doubt be of great interest to King Blackthorn. Seated in their usual positions were Governor Victor II […]
