Ha ha, I'm glad to see you are okay Silleh, thought you went melancholic on me. Deon's still working on his artifact called real life.
Hrm.. how to brief the others...
Okay, we are a type of Giant-kin there (Miniaturized giants) Most of us are short (4'-5'), are breardy, loves to drink, loves to fight, and loves to tell insane stories (I usually talk about fortress mode failures and it stuns the crowds). Everyone starts out in Briar Hollow (Main Town/Newbie Town). I would STRONGLY suggest you stay there until you know your way around. The Dwarf Stronghold is actually a NPC Town between Briar Hollow and Nifol. Most of the dwarfs reside now in Nifol. A valley that's home to amoral, sex crazed, pointy eared giants called the Trow. They consider us their pets, we consider them backwater, non-industrial, giant hippies... pretty much and use their vanity to our betterment.Only a matter of time until they realize they are out gunned by our superior forces. Currently, relations with them are not hostile, and on feigned friendly terms.
We are in the process of organizing a dwarf council of -gasp- nobles and in the following weeks, with be electing a mayor (trying to keep the process as close to DF as possible)
Keiseth: When I fail at crafting items, I usually rp a small tantrum each time.
John Hopoate: I tried Hybrid before Grimmwold and have to say. Grimmwold seems alot more lively. Only person I met in my week stay on Hybrid was a ganker.
Torak: you can pm me (Hamenopi) in the grimmwold irc channel, or .online Monom in game. I'm usually around the tavern in Nifol when not at some event.
SeaBee: I'm a dedicated crafter that also fights, you can do both, find me and I'll hook you up with a set for free. Also the week on hybrid was my first time playing UO, after no luck there, I came here by Deon's request and many people helped me out. I now am pretty decent at the game. Also, that's not bad at all for an accent. I'd assume we'd all not talk the exact same way so it's really how the player feels like chatting.
Silleh Boy: Swords at 90! And dammit, I told you we need fisherdwarfs, cookerdwarfs, brewerdwarfs, lumberdwarfs, leatherdwarfs, and carpenterdwarfs too! =P You don't embark with 7 dedicated miners.... do you? I've hit legendary on Mining and Smithing already, working on woodcutting and carpentry now. I only have 900 points!
