The 30yr Anniversary logo is available on all manner of fun items, personally I picked up a snazzy coffee mug for hot tea on game nights! We hope you find something fun to celebrate the many more years the guild has together!!
Hail *NOR/! It is always difficult for me to be critical of the game that I absolutely love; in this article, I will be doing precisely that. With a week’s notice, the folks at Dungeons & Dragons Online announced that there will be a NEW Hardcore Season Seven starting on Wednesday, December 7th after the update goes live at 11am PST, and ending on Tuesday, February 7th at 11am PST. With high hopes and anticipation for the game that I’ve called my “main” for fifteen years, I prepared myself for the release-day afternoon and attempted to log in. Let the…
Hail NOR! Season greetings from Neverwinter. December brings the return of the Winterfest. This is an opportunity for players to get useful and vanity items from the game as gifts. The Winterfest has fun little side activities that go along with the normal game play. Northdark Reaches is the latest mod that dropped in November. In Northdark Reaches is the start of the revamping of the Underdark stories from D&D lore. Temple of the Spider now has normal and master versions. We are in the process of playing through the module and getting the guild geared to start running the…
Hail*NOR/Happy Life Day!! The Feast of Prosperity ended with it much food consumption, world bosses decimated, feast benefactors have contributed Skiffs available for purchase, meals prepared and served, and fun and shenanigans were had. I’d just as soon kiss a Wookiee!! Well, maybe not kisses, but everyone could use a good hug. Get ready for some warm Wookiee hugs!! Next comes the arrival of Life Day (where you too can have a chance to hug a Wookiee and throw snowballs at overheating droids for cool prizes.) With Christmas around the corner swToR celebrates the culmination of its 10th year with…
The Adventure Continues… [DM]: Gutbur, You run along as best you can, keeping up with your horse at a slow trot and before too long you arrive at the Elk tribe encampment. It looks like the elk are having their own moot ahead of the great moot. As they see the great chief approaching, you see them all part for him. He slows your horse to a walk and moves beside you, as you walk along, he points out the other Elk tribe chiefs. “They are waiting for me to die. ‘The old man has lost his taste for battle’…
The Adventure Continues… [DM]: When you awake in the High Shaman’s tent you can see that daylight has risen, you are unsure of quite how long you were asleep but at the very least it is the next morning. You no longer suffer from exhaustion. The tent is currently empty. [Gutbur]: I’m alone in the tent ? You can surmise that being an observer the process was likely less strenuous on the high shaman. Or perhaps she just has a stronger mind than you. [Gutbur]: I will collect my things and leave the tent. [DM]: Your gear is undisturbed. Upon…
The Adventure Continues… (Lasarian): Sorry for fermenting your post so long. [Gutbur]: As I am in the company of the Elk, I would follow their lead. Pillaging two people seems more like just robbing them, which I am ambivalent about. Tempting though … I haven’t had a chance to RP some good old fashioned pillaging. [DM]: The Elk are giving them a wide berth. [Gutbur]: Wide berth it is then. (Talolan): Gutbur the cowardly barbarian. [Gutbur]: I am travelling with the Elk as a guest, I’m not dragging them into a fight they clearly don’t want. [DM]: Well, I was…

Hail*NOR// Lotharian/Kordolmer here. I miss all of you NORbies. It has been a minute since I talked to any of you. I wish that y’all had a setup on consoles so I could run with you all. I’m glad to see that the guild is still around and still rocking like always.
