Limit reached

Today is a great day for me because I finally reached the limit as a Paladin. Krile did too as a Bard which is weird cause her main job is Whitemage, but Krile follows me everywhere I go and wanted to adventure with me as a Bard. Soon I'll change to my Thief job and do it all over again, for now a round of yagudo drinks to everyone its time for celebration.

Riverne - Site A01 + Avatar fights

Our Promathia missions group managed to finish the Phominua aqueducts part without too much trouble and continued on to the next part the Riverne Site A01. Fancy name for a place in my opinion and an interesting site too, floating pieces of land, strange portals and lots of strange creatures roam the area. Our mission: to check the disturbance and escort the tavnazian leader to make contact with a dragon that was said to be there.
Bugman, Castador, Bassetto, Flotsam and Abdirazak joined me on the mission. We managed to get to the deeper parts of the area and found the cause of the problem. Bahamut the wyrmking himself was there talking to some guys and got attaked by surprise, 3 hooded entities came out of flying ships and attacked us. We had to fight back, Castador was running around distracting one while we fight the other two in groups. Abdirazak and I did a pretty good job fighting one, even though Abdirazak got knocked down a couple of times because of some nasty area attacks . Was a fun fight and we manage to finish them in record time, everyone did an awesome job. After the fight and all the craziness Prishe helped Bahamut escape and we got transported to south Gustaberg. I'm having a ton of fun doing this missions and can't wait to keep doing more missions.After that Vampslayer needed adventurers to help beat the Avatars and I joined in the group. We fought Leviatan......And Ifrit, and won both battles, now I can summon them when I go adventuring as a summoner. Hope to fight the others soon.

Phomiuna Aqueducts

The time has come for a couple of the member of the linkshell to carry on with the Promathia missions after all that dimentional monster fighting. Our mission this time: to prove that we the good guys and meant to help the Tavnazian Stonghold and what better way to prove that than to go into some old sewers infected by the undead and lots of monsters and defeat a minotaur there. Flotsam, Krile, Kyssandra, Roninhiroishi, Abdirazak, Krile and I were the ones ready at first to go deep and do this task. We had no trouble at fist, a couple of easy fights here and there was fun, but we had Krile in our party. We got to a point where we were fighting a jelly and there was a monster fish around and Krile casted banishga and hit both monsters at the same time resulting on a party knockdown. We regrouped, Kyssandra and Flotsam went ahead and explored a little and found the minotaur but decided to wait for other members of the linkshell that needed to do this mission also.

We were joined by Bassetto, Katsumoto and Bugman. Flotsam got the minotaurs attention and it lured us all in to their position. The fight went without any problems, all did an excellent job. We went on to finish the mission but when we got to a gate we were supposed to pass, Flotsam gave us the bad news that the key he had was the wrong one, plus Abdirazak that was on his Thief job didn't had his tools to open the gate. We tried to kill undead to get the key but no luck on that, at least we managed to find two Monk subligars and a Ninja one for some job specific equipments. Abdirazak and Flotsam went back to the stronghold to get tools to open the gate, but a lot of attacks from monster in the area prevented us to carry on with the mission with all the knockdowns. Even though we didn't finish the mission I had a lot of time and will finish it at a later time very soon.

Learning Savage Blade

Word on my swordsmanship have reached far that I received and invitation to the Kingdom of San d'Oria. Curilla of the Temple Knights heard about my adventures and decided I was worthy of a new technique. She said to me: "Adventurer Coldwind, your reputation precedes you. Word is that you have done great things lately and you seem like and honorable person, for that we think that you are worthy to train on an ancient sword technique. First take this enchanted sword and use it when you are adventuring, the special enchantment will tell us if you are ready for the next task." I took the sword with great determination and trained day and night, fighting beastmen and dragons to prove that I was ready.
Went back to Curilla after weeks of all that adventuring and gave her the enchanted sword. She knew right away that I met the requirements and gave me a second task right away. I was to recover the map of the annals of truth hidden somewhere at the Quicksand Caves. I found Jeangallo there that was doing the same thing as I and decided to team up and finish with all this together. We knew this task wasn't going to be easy so we ask for help from the Linkshell. We went deep into the caves and managed to find the area where the map was hidden, when I was going to pick up the map we felt a rumble in the cave. The sand began shifting and from underneath a scorpion came and attacked us. But we didn't panic and did a great job defeating it.Jeangallo and I went back to Curilla and gave her the map. She rewarded us with an old piece of parchment, told us to study what was written inside.Took me a while to read that and understand it all but soon I was doing the attack on poor spiders at the desert with Jeangallo. Thanks to everyone that helped me on doing this quest, I'm having a ton of fun jumping and slashing when I do Savage Blade.

Last Promyvions.... for now

I'm happy to report that we managed to beat the Promyvion bosses for Dem and Mea to get Bassetto access to Lufaise Meadows. Now we are ready to move on with the Promathia missions at last, that will be fun indeed.

Promyvion Holla round 2

The day has come for us to take our revenge on the Promyvion Holla boss. Flotsam, Katsumoto, Bugman, Bassetto and me were in the party with Bermont Summoner and Abdirazak Warrior helping us. Getting to the main room isn't always easy there were instances were the path was too crowded with monsters and we had to fight. Bermont got attacked from some roaming monsters and knocked down, same with me in a fight and Flotsam distracting the monsters to clear a path for us. We got to the boss and started to fight and this time we showed it who was the real boss. Bermont and Flotsam called upon the power of the avatar Shiva to freeze the monster to death. It happens so fast we even broke some adventurers record on the fight. I was so happy for Katsumoto and Bugman when they got teleported to Lufaise Meadows, congratulations to both. I cant wait for the time when we continue on to the next mission, but for now Bassetto needs our help.

Fun at Qufim

This days I haven't put my name on the adventures board looking for adventures because of all the promyvions. The other day I heard someone on the Merry Minstrel talk about a lot of adventurers gathering at the Behemot's dominion near Qufim island. I thought that was worth checking out and decided to go. When I was halfway there I saw a lot of adventurers with scratches on their armor and bruised, limping their way back to town. I concluded that their business in the dominion was over and I was a little disappointed that I miss seen what they were doing there. I took my frustration on the crabs on the island, bashing their shells with my club, the cracking noise was music to my ears. Even Vinja-Kanja joined me with the crab genocide and grew stronger in the process.

Promyvion Holla

After a few days from my vacation from the Promyvion runs the group managed to get back together for the Promyvion Holla dimension. Flotsam, Archtype, Katsumoto, Krile, Bassetto Monk and I gather together at the craf of Holla and got to work. Good run thru the dimension all the memory receptacles were the real ones so we didn't had to wander of looking for more and risking getting knockdown a lot. I was the only one that fell in a fight before we go to the spire, we had to fight a monster that got in our way.We got to the spire and had a good battle plan for the fight. The creature was a wreaker this time, it sleeps everyone and saps away your life and status. I had to take poison potions to counter the drowsiness from all the sleeping abilities from it. Hurting from the poison I was doing the best I can to protect everyone, waiting for the summoners to do astral flow. One problem arise, the mighty avatars were asleep, and they couldn't do as much astral flows as they wanted to. Bassestto prepared to pummel the beast with his hundred fist ability but got slept when he decided to use it. All went downhill from then on, the monster was regenerating his life with his draining ability and we all fell. That's too bad for everyone cause we were so close to winning. We will try again in a couple of days, I'm sure we will win next time.

Darkwind

Just thought this was a really fun picture, Darkwarrior and me fused into one being: Darkwind. All the strenght of the Darkknight and the defense of a Paladin. This Galka can only dream...

Kiba's task

Kiba is training as a Bluemage and the Immortals sent him on a task to kill a soulflayer at the Alzadaal Undersea Ruins. Doctordub, Kiris, Aricelia, Bermont, Darkwarrior, Krile and me offered to help Kiba on this task. Kiris and Aricelia decided to use the runic portal and be close to Nashmau but they were attacked by chigoes in Caedarva Mire. Krile tried to help them but got knocked down too. After the rescue we all went to the ruins with not much trouble and prepared for battle. The Nephionic Soulflayer came out of nowhere, like a predator hunting for its prey it was waiting for the right moment to strike and kill us all. It was casting black magic and protected by a forcefield that bounces magic.We were doing great, I had the hideous creature attention and it seemed tired from the fight about to collapse from the wounds we had inflicted on it. When all of the sudden I hear a voice from behind: "Burn you monster, Fire", it was Krile casting a spell. All was in slow motion as I yell "NOOOOOO", I couldn't stop it the last incantation was said and there was no way Krile could stop herself from casting, the fire spell hits the forcefield and reflected back to us. The spell was very powerful, one by one we fell from the extreme heat and fire burning us, melting our armor.
Too tired from the fight and the burns I couldn't fight any more for the time being and had to be taken to the Upper Jeuno infirmary, when I recovered my senses Krile was waiting for me. She told me that everyone got back up and tried a second time and killed the monster. I was so happy that Kiba was able to finish his task and getting his last piece of artifact armor the Bluemage headgear plus they gave him the tittle of paragon of Bluemage excellence. Congratulations Kiba!

New armor

Our promyvion run went on a hiatus for now, blame it on our adventurers schedules. I can't wait to to help on Promyvion Holla, I've heard they tried one day but everyone got slept even the Summoner avatars and lost the fight. That's too bad, but I'm sure they will defeat it next time. For now I've been adventuring a lot, doing assaults at Ilrusi Atoll looking for treasure and getting stronger.
Which brings me to this nice picture. Yes... that's not my mannequin that's yours truly. I can finally stop polishing my adaman armor at home and wear it. I gotta say it really looks good on me. Now I'm really close to hitting my limit and go back to my other job Thief.

Promyvion Dem

After exploring the Lufaise Meadows I found a swirling vortex and got teleported to Valkrum dunes and to the mainland back in time to help Flotsam with another Promyvion. The Dem spire was our target this time, our party consisted mostly of the same members except Ryshin that got substituted by Redmage Kiris. Smooth run for the most part the problem was Krile on her quest to be a Vana'diel cartographer got attacked by monsters all the time. We left her behind again and managed to get to the web of recolections. There was one little problem, I was still groggy for the knock on my head from last time and I didn't noticed I had the abilities of a Thief, which meant I had no way to provoke the monster and protect the group.But we managed to work something out of it, Katsumoto hold its attention for a bit will I sneak attack it from behind and curing myself to try to get its attention, I have to be more careful next time and see that I have all my abilities in check. We managed to beat it with less trouble as the last one. Congratulations on the win to all the members that needed it. Now its on to the last one Promyvion Holla, can't wait to keep doing more mission, sounds like it will be a blast too.
