Re: Sword of Valor (Life Thread)
Between Parcels and Letters (Part One)
"...Months ago, when I sought shelter at the Postal Service Headquarters after being surprised by a giant spider nearby, Kevin, head of the Tibian Postmaster's Guild, told me he could use some help, but since I had other things in my mind back then (like trying to not become that giant spider's next meal), I must admit I didn't give the man the attention he was looking for... Now, months later, I came back to his office, it was time to pay him back for the hospitality. From checking travel routes to fixing a jammed mailbox, from delivering bills to collecting bones, oh boy, I have to say: Working as a postman is NOT an easy task! I just hope I can resist the urge to take a peek at what's inside this fancy present box Dermot at Fibula is about to receive..."
Cool thread! I just started my own journey as well. GL
Thank you @Assassin Legend, I wish you all the best in your new journey! :D
Hello everyone, before jumping into my next post I'd like to thank @Lecter and everyone else who's helping him on his project.
(For those who don't know what I'm talking about: https://tibiantis.online/?page=viewtopic&id=461)
I didn't ask @Lecter for anything besides a coconut (since I know he's been hunting demons lately), and he not only gave me 10 of them but was also thoughtful enough to ask which equipment I was wearing, and right after I told him what it was he decided to help me a "little" more (As you can see I'm now wearing a brand new Warrior Helmet :D).
Since he was very clear about the fact he's not working alone in this project of helping the lower levels around, I'd like to thank not only him but everyone else who participate on this nice project, and to show my gratitude even further:
As soon as possible (Tomorrow, hopefully) I'll be sending @Lecter2 plate sets (and 2 steel helmets aswel), so he can donate it to other brothers in need. I know it is not much, but it is what I can do right now. Once again, thank you guys very much!
(And about the part two of my last post: It's coming up tomorrow :D)
[EDIT 25/06/2024]: Hello everyone, as promissed I sent Lecter all the items I mentioned here before + two dwarven shields:
Once again,I know it's not much, but at least is something right? And I'm glad to able to help! :D
My best wishes to @Lecter and to everyone else who's making, day by day, Tibiantis a better place for all of us!

Between Parcels and Letters (Part Two)
"...Who said a low-class knight like me wouldn't do well in the fashion industry hum? Well, whoever said that... Was absolutely right! Long walks, forcing a royal dog to smell trash, asking people uncomfortable questions about their body sizes, argh! There's nothing in it that seems remotely likable; But if I had to choose one thing, just one thing about it all that I dislike the most: Hugo! That pink-bearded Venorean fashion lord has such a bossy attitude that every time I went to talk to that man I felt like vomiting my guts out..."

Re: Sword of Valor (Life Thread)
Between Parcels and Letters (Part Three - Final)
"...I was finally ready for the most important tasks a post officer could be assign for, but I must confess I wasn't fully aware about how dangerous it could be; Waldo's death was certainly a massive heads up about how things could go terribly wrong if I didn't act carefully enough, and after completing one last simple mission of delivering a (heavy as hell) bag of letters to the good ol' Santa, I knew for sure my next assignment wouldn't be so easy. With a letter in my hand (Addressed to none other than Markwin, the Minotaur king) and a few Great Fireball runes inside that red bag that was once filled with hundreds of letters to that good old man at Vega, I headed straith to the depths of Thais looking for the entrance to the Minotaurs Kingdom, luckly, when I got there, a royal paladin kindly offered to give me a hand on this mission, which definitely helped a lot! No Great Fireballs were shot and thanks to that gentle paladin I was able to return to Kevin in safety; Now, I can proudly (and finally) say: I'm a Archpostman! There's no missions left for me and I just can't wait to make a good use of those Royal Mailboxes out there..."

Berserk
"...Financially speaking, if promotion had hurt my pocket, the postman missions killed it; Fortunately tho, I still had some loot from my adventures on the Kazordoon mines. After selling about half of everything I had, I was able to gear myself up a little, but to be honest, the thing I was most interested in spending my gold on was learning the two last spells I could learn as a knight... And boy I did it! I walked out the Noodles Academy of Modern Magic at Edron feeling as magically proficient as the mightiest sorcerer, and I was ready to show those Rotworms who's the boss... Well...
(PS: I still can't tell what went wrong, I probably didn't grip the sword the right way, or maybe those rotworms had an extra-thick skin, who knows? Argh, I'm grateful those hideous creatures do not have any sense of humor, otherwise, they would probably be laughing at me from the rotworm hell or wherever they might be right now)..."
Hello everyone! I'd also like to take this opportunity to thanks @Goshnar!
I was trying to buy a Crystal Ring for some days but couldn't find anyone selling it!
I met @Goshnar at Edron's depot and asked him if by any chance he had one of them to sell me, and he did! But refused to ask for anything in return... So once again, thank you very much!
