Something posted in the guild only area of the message board made me think...... why not start a thread were we list people we remember..... who have left both SoF & the game or were not in SoF but you remember them. If you have someone you remember (preferably fondly) this could be the place where they could be remembered & acknowledged.
Feel free to post as many times as you want although it would be nice to not just list a name but also what memories the name conjures, perhaps how they impacted your game play and anything else you'd like. I will leave this initial post without a name but intend to acknowledge a few fondly remembered characters by acknowledging your posts or adding my own to what I expect may be a growing list.
While the danger of such a thread is that someone in our respective pasts may feel smitten if their name is not posted. For those who know some of our SoF members this is more likely because some may take a while before this thread is even discovered or acted upon. Worse yet some of our members have memory that is the size of a gnomes pinky which is why our raid and class leaders have to give the same instructions 2-3 times before each engagement and hand walk some of the guilds members to staging areas if they seem daized.

Wyndaser and I learned Veksar together and hung around there killing the undead for quite a few lvls, till Rl caught up and she and her husband needed to leave the game.
Mclearn (spelling) just like grouping with him, always made me think boy he makes this look easy.
Oghie becuase I really like how hard he played the game and well was always fun to talk to.
Lewis (again spelling) - Was someone that helped me with my shard farming, was the first person that showed me what a wizard-necro combination could do to 100K mobs
And there are a couple of others that I hung around with but I can not remember their game names, will try and rember and post them. |

Mastashreda
Most people currently in SoF won't remember him but he was a member. Despite the fact that he was suffering from an incurable disease that was sapping him of all his energy and killing him, he always had a virtual smile on and never complained about his situation. In fact, most of the guild probably didn't even know he was sick until after we lost him. He was an inspiration to me and many others who got to know him.
He passed away in his early 20s.. barely having a chance to live life. |

AH Thanks, Jus, I was trying to remember his game-name.
Masta was a delight and a pleasure to have known. He always had a kind and gentle word for everyone, with a delightful sense of humor. I was online when the word came down. Masta wherever you are!
Kennan and Caballo, two of SoF's founders. Taught me how to kite (so you can blame them)
Balkamp! OH MY WORD That Barbarian sure had nice legs....
Daconia, OH the times we had, Dac saving my butt from places I had NO business being in, but was at because I had the port....
Marilyth. He & Kiv could do puns at eighty paces like no one in this galaxy.
MORGIE!!!!
Dugann. He's still ingame, but I miss him in /GU
SOOO many people Vinc & I have met in the past seven years, what a lovely lovely thread. :wistful: &

Aww I enjoy reading about your fondly remembered people Thanks for posting this thread Dadruss!
The first person I ever met in this game was a kickass mage named StormDancer. She had an alt at my level (this was when Skelliqueen my necro was my main) and she walked me through a lot of the basics. We became great friends! She used to look out for Angil too, making sure I got to group every day with her and her husband. She was like a sister to me. She left game because she had a baby and moved to a city with only dial-up! LOL
Another little hot mage was Ibeni... that little gnome (who was always in Dark Elf illusion) was so excellent! Her rogue Nenian and I used to shred Ldon's every week! Ah the memories! She had 6 accounts and sold them all for WoW...
I've had a lot of great people I've met over the years and despite them having either left game, or moved servers, their characters are still on my friends list.  |

Justar,
Thank you for posting about Mastashreda. He was a great in game friend of mine who I miss and think of often. You are right he did hide his disease with a grace and strength few people have. I did not know about his disease until afterwards but like you said he ALWAYS had a smile in game that made you enjoy being around him. He will always be the #1 necro in SoF regardless of what any listing/ranking ever shows.

Few that come to mind first (I'm sure there will be others)
Nugent; a druid that was always going out of his way to help people and our raids. Met him personally when he came to the west coast at my house along with another old friend named. Nuge became disenchanted with the Druid class & drifted from the game. He asked me to liquidate his account and make a sizable donation to SoF.
Panas "Pants" a ranger who also was very personable and drifted from EQ about two years ago.
Tazer? Who was it that used to have a weird thing that he would say... yelp.... in /gu or /ooc when he came into the zone was it Tazer (spelling) he would go;
"Spoooooooooooon" or some such thing? Used to make me chuckle some each time I saw it.
ICBash. Nice guy. Warrior we talked a few times on the phone. Very personable.

to name a few i miss i will start with the Thanatopsis Order crew.
Bubbles (Bubkuk) was an awesome leader and friend. and i will never forget kicking his butt infront of the guild in our first royal rumble.
Xxandralo/Draxxalon awesome chanter / monk . he was also the person that took this old druid/monk from the depths of despair being 1 of the few remaining people running around EQ with a Griffin claw flag and giving me a home.
Fierina ... what can i say?!? she was a friend that was always there to lend a hand. i owe her sooo much for the good times we had jut running around and smacking stuff.
Motrain .. omg .. who could forget General MoMo?? it was insane watching him be the ch rotation when we were clearing NToV . and as for leadership .. he was on point.
Springfever. she was 1 of the first people i met on prexus. i was but a lowly druid that had just been invited to join GC under the RL friend clause and she was always there to help. even to just sit and talk was always a pleasure. she will sorely be missed.
Thenol. this is 1 of the craziest druids i ever met. as i remember it our first encounter was her yelling at me to sit still while she tracked me across Gfay. she taught me what it was to be a druid.
Billyjak. what can i say. this was the first awesome monk i ever saw. not because he had great gear but because he knew how to be a monk and was really good at it. he loved helping people and took pride in wearing is black sash we raided to get for him.
Ghostmark/skyshadow. this father daughter team was aces in my book. how can anyone that was blessed with their presence ever doubt that they cared for people.Ghostmark stodd his ground in Castle Mistmore when my poor druid died on 1 of our miniraids and kept everything safe till i could get rezz'd back in. at the time i was but a lowbie lvl 20 something in GC's lowraiders.
Katarn. this was my buddy. back in the day Katarn and myself would duo all over the place. if nothing else we would go tear apart CoM and split the loot
Missty. this mage was my reason for playing EQ. i spent hours at his house IRL watching the antics of the game and asking what is that how do you do that .. and he convinced me to try it out.
Kuzain. for someone to be this passionate about the RP aspect of the game is just amazing. she always put a smile on my face when i talked to her. no matter what was going on she always seemed in good spirits.
well i am rambling and i could go on for days so i'll cut it there for now.. if i missed you i am sorry but i am not even close to done with al the people i knew and truly miss from this game.
to those i knew i /salute.. to those i didn't /wave /smile |

Tileren- Hands down the most humble, fair, and generally nicest person in and out of game. He was a founding member of Harmony of Souls, and was a good friend to all that knew him. Rest in peace.
Barrac- A retired guildie, my sponsor, and an all around good guy. I hope you get more playtime in the future.
Isknaed- My first SoF buddy. He disappeared after posting that he was recovering from a harrowing car crash. I hope you are well where ever you are. |

Raids just aren't the same without Balkamp running around pantsless throwing his Slime Coated Harpoon at mobs and losing it forever. |

Hehe lot of fond memories listed above.... will add;
Past leaders formal and informal each one had a tremendous amount of charisma and interacting with them always left me feeling good. I miss these folks a lot as well;
Mojogoth (SK) and his wife Stumbalina were instramental in starting us on the DoN progressions when they first came out.
Centuri..... OMG what a nice person & one of the better tradeskill enthusiasts. Was she the one that was always distracting the raid by flashing us and the mob as we were about to engage a mob or after the win err or whenever she got the inclination or was that another character.
Ayar / Ghriz jeeze do we owe them or what
Alysar what a nice class leader so nice to interact with.
Two tank classes I always enjoyed seeing in /gu

I wish I'd met her. The RP aspect is what got me into this game.
Tesserae, was the first SoFer I met under guise of her gnome alt: Sleega. She wasn't quite as effervescently happy as Wolfie, but she could've been her twin for all that. They even played the same race/class combo. She was a dear to play with. She engaged me in some RP while we were hunting Paludal Caverns together, and we had some great RP sessions, and it was through her I met the rest of the guild of the time. In fact, she was my sponsor.
Daggerclaw, took over my sponsorship with Tess had to leave the game. A stand up guy to be sure, and a blast to hang out with.
Berix, helped me test the Filthy Twink boardgame at a gather and a dead ringer for Daggerclaw. I swear they're twins or something.
Kinamurk, used to beg me for Spiritual Purity. I don't think I ever got him killed but I could be mistaken on that. We did Sebilis together.
Sharkann, could lock down mobs like Fort Knox. I definitely got him killed a few times. Hell of a chanter.
Mistwulf, I still have a shot of her in front of Severilous, just behind...
Peyti (Xarlurn), who was tanking at the time.
Gaelle (Tima), I met on my first ever raid with SoF which was Dragon Necropolis. I thought her armor looked really cool so I took a screenshot of her. I think I still have it somewhere. |

Zigglewort, for being just such a great guy and a mighty warrior in such a small package. /salute you sir.
The entire raid lead crew of Sof and the run to Plane of Time, I had such a great time every time I logged in I couldn't get enough, thank you so much. |
