Howdy, yes I am a yank. born in the American SW 1951, I am disabled, retired Army and now living with my wife near Fort Smith Arkansas, I started playing UO in April of 2000 the birth of Trammel, starting on LS and moving to Sonoma in 2004, up till 2008. I returned in 2015 when a friend gifted me a 3-month code. My Characters on Europa are Arwyn Sonoma, (a neco mage) and Ancient One. a Myst mage tamer) My home is Sonoma since the one house one shard rule, except for Siege, when I found out I could still keep my castle on Sonoma and have a house there, I went and played there. I cross-shard now days playing mostly tamer/mages on other shards during the EM events. I love the role play at these events and I get upset with players that try to upset the cart on the storyline with BS. I was invited to pop over and I hope I can be of service with my Ancient One.
