Adamantking Usurpers

Last night I was having fun in East Altepa Desert as a Beastmaster and when I was about to go to Rabao to get some sleep Jeangallo sent me a message: "The Adamantking of the quadav has returned to the Beadeaux stronghold, come and help us." I ran as quickly as I could and used an outpost warp, gathered my gear and went to meet her there. Kyssandra, Cyaan, Aricelia and Mogwae were already there and waiting for my arrival but there was a problem, another linkshell was there too. Drittz and his Shinra ls were there too and planing on engaging the monster at any moment. While we were planning how to lure the monster the Shinra leader got impatient and provoked the whole room full of quadavs wiping his party and taking a couple of our own members in the process. Things got crazy for a bit but we let the quadavs calm a bit before engaging again. We were joined a bit later by Jedimasta and Elov. Cyaan was the one doing the luring and did a good job at it, we beat the monster with problems.We didn't found anything of value that I know off but thats not the point, fighting a monster like that was a great accomplishment. Great job everyone!

An amazing week

This past week has been one of the busiest weeks ever. It all started when I was training as a Beastmaster in East Altepa Desert when members of the MoogleArmy Jeangallo, Jedimasta, Quickswipe, Larien and Aricelia wanted to keep helping the Aht Urgan Empire and do some missions. We had to get to the Jade Sepulcher and fight a wivre riding mamool ja. An amazing fight and we won.
Next we had to go to Periquia and fight some Lamias but that was pretty easy. We then proceed to the cutter, a boat that took us to Talacca Cove. We entered the cove but were confronted by Gessho, the Ninja Yagudo, turns out our mercenary friend was a double agent of some sort. The fight looked like we had it won but then he ninjutsu and cloned himself and then proceed to do a kamikaze move exploding and taking out our mages. We will have a rematch soon.
A couple of days later I met my friend Byah near San'doria. He was in dire need of help because he wants to become a Dragoon.
I had a ton of fun toying with this dragon as is so easy but still a fun thing to do. I hope he enjoys his new job.A couple of hours later Aricelia needed to fight a tiger notorious monster in West Altepa Desert near some oasis. It was a test to Aricelia to see if she was worthy of the Groundstrike attack.
The end result: three down and a tiger dead, Aricelia, Roninhiroishi and I got knockdown but that comes with the job, Hiroishi always gets knockdown so I'm used to it. Congratulations Aricelia on your new awesome attack! Right after that my fellow Windurstians helped me on my last mission for Windrust.Battling cardians..manticores and a dragon is always fun. Took us a coulple of tries but we succeeded. Thank you guys, now I'm a proud rank ten Windurstian with a cool flag of the nation in my moghouse.Last but not least, rumors of the arrival of the queen of the Yagudos reached us. Vitrolant and Jedimasta went on ahead to the yagudo citadel to investigate and turned out to be true. Aricelia, Jeangallo and Larien joined them. We decided to engage using Larien's avatar Carbuncle but we couldn't fool the queen's bodyguards and we bit the dust. We got up and this time we were going to use one of us to lure them. The straws were given and I manage to pick the shortest one, but if you ask me I think it was fixed. I lured them to the bottom of the chamber and was pummeled to a pulp by a room full of yagudos for the greater good. The fight was going smoothly but the queen's avatar knocked out Jeangallo and Vitrolant fell soon after that. After two tries we decided we need more people to help. Gaiaxzero, Godofangels and Cyaan answer the call. Like everyone says, third time is the charm, and it certainly was. We found an awesome dagger, the daylight dagger, which everyone agreed to give to me. Thank you everyone!

Shield of diplomacy

After a couple of days in the wilderness as a Beastmaster I decided to came back to the city. Aricelia wanted to try the shield of diplomacy mission again only this time with no Stuns involved. Jeangallo, Quickswipe, Jedimasta, Larien joined the mission too. The real star of this story was Aricelia, she saved me by stalling some ghosts along the way and when we were fighting Khimaira-13 she was the one doing the finishing blow after Karababa left us. Thank you Aricelia that was really awesome of you, I hope we can do more missions soon.

Then we helped Larien get her Carbuncle mitts at the dreaded temple of Uggalepih. Not much problems there, Jeangallo getting all the monsters attention like always but all in good fun. Congratulations Larien on your new mitts.

A night of friendly competition

Vampslayer the Mithra Summoner had the great idea of having a brenner match, for fun and to keep ourselves sharp. A lot of members showed up to the match because probably they want to kick each others butt for fun.Turns out they kick mine over and over again. Two, three and postens joined to kick my butt every time.
I even had to take a break and sit in a corner because I was getting very mad, annoyed by the whooping I was getting every time without the chance to get even. But after cooling off I had a great time afterwards.
When the brenner match ended we wanted to keep sparring and we did a ballista which is the same thing but without the annoying postens. I had a great time fighting some of the members and chasing some around the area because they liked to run a lot. Hope we do this again soon.

Oh Jeangallo you radmaje!

There is a Redmage of the MoogleArmy LS named Jeangallo. This particular Elvaan female is very funny and I consider her a friend. You may have read me mention her before if you been reading my stories. There is never a dull moment when she offers herself to help or when she plans a crazy event. I can say you can classify those moments as amusing moments or annoying ones. Some of you (my friend Roninhiroishi) may think those moments are annoying but for me they are amusing. Jean was training as a Dark Knight lately to learn some abilities that could be useful for her Redmage job. She use those abilities all the time now and its great but that set in motion one amazing event. Some members of the MoogleArmy were doing the mission Shield of Diplomacy for the Aht Urgan empire and wanted me to help them. I needed the fight but didn't had much time at the moment, but they managed to convinced me to do it.

And the Mission began when we gathered at the Aht Urgan Whitegate. The party: Jeangallo, Larien, Quickswipe, Aricelia, Xenojin and me. The orders: to help Karababa fight the monster Khimaira-13. The place: Navukgo Execution Chamber in Mount Zhayolm. The plan: make someone (Quickswipe) get knocked down making Karababa attack it and the monster has all its attention on her allowing us to heal Karababa and not get aggro winning the fight easily. The result: failure. Jeangallo been Jeangallo got the crazy idea to do a Stun to the monster messing with the whole strategy. That was the first time a Jeangallo moment became an annoying one to me because I said I didn't had much time to try again. Suffice is to say I was very mad at the moment but after a while it became pretty funny when I remembered it again, it was like "Die Khimaira" and the Stun, so I am not mad anymore. As for the party, they were going to try again but I don't know how it went for them because I closed my eyes and fell asleep on the spot.

Becoming a Beastmaster

A couple of days ago I help a fellow Galka Chriseh defeat a notorious monster in the Sea Serpent Grotto for a very nice sword. With a couple of MoogleArmy members and CetraSanctuary adventurers we got the job done. But what caught my attention was watching this Beastmaster charm a kraken to do his bidding, and I said to myself that is pretty good I should try to do that.So I started to train as a Beastmaster, going into the wild and try to charm the monsters to fight other monsters is not that easy. Take a while to get the hang of it but for the most part is a lot of fun. I was looking for a new job and I tried Monk but it was too dull for me. Not saying is not a good job, for all the monks out there, but with Beastmaster I have to be on my toes because so many things can go wrong. Like when you are fighting lizards and one shows up close to you and decide to gang up on you.
Its a job for the patient person and I've been enjoying it a lot, can't wait to be stronger and do some wild things as a Beastmaster.
