Apr 11 - Apr 17
Raiding Results: With the Sleeper Awakening looming over us, Kingdom started the week with Zlandi. The next day, we had a CLEAN Tunare kill into a Statue/AoW. What a strong Tuesday!

On Wednesday we amassed with the server and sniped Lord Yelinak before Kerafyrm could get there. We showed off some absolutely amazing goal-tending abilities.

Shortly after the Sleeper event in Skyshrine, we had a sweet sweet quake that gave us a 2nd Yelinak, a 2nd AoW, Doze, CT; plus Klandi and LTK putting us at FIVE new ST keys.

~Notably in Fear, we were able to take the CT kill away from Seal Team who was already in the zone when we made the call to move over. Felt GREAT!

Saturday quake netted us a few more sleeper keys and priority kills. Sleeper's sweep and another Doze. Let's go!

Sunday funday, cleaned up some TOV dragons and helped Castle with a Ring War.

Kingdom's first Warder Engage

Kingdom has entered Sleepers Tomb.

Grats Balor!

Oh hey. It's been a minute. We've been busy.

Started off March by making the Avatar of War faceplant with a little help from our friends over at <Safe Space> (very safe), thanks to alpha male, hunter of green scale, King of Kael - Lord Rebale. He's probably losing count of his Kael FTEs by now.

It's weird having a Barbarian Bard around, but we're getting used to it.

We also got sick of Harmonying Sontalak so we decided we'd roll over 65-deep to relieve our Druids/Rangers cause we're nice like that (even to our Druids and Rangers - seriously. Apply today).

God look at that resolution. Classic AF, Perp. Classic AF.

Then we decided to pay Tunare a visit again with our friends at Castle. Does killing her twice count as farm status? I'm gonna say killing her twice counts as farm status. We have Tunare on farm status.

And we've really been enjoying watching Greywind's photography skills continue to improve (he's been getting a lot of practice).

All in all, it's been a pretty fun first 10 days of March. Crossed some targets off our list of names. Not many more to go, and they're in our sights. Kingdom will be there, one way or another. But we have one question - will you heed the call?

Great Cycle, Kingdom!

Observations from yesterday - Kingdom likely has the best necros on the server.  Dragons show a lot more personality when you kill them.  Fear is rough.  Sperm charts are hilarious.  Kingdom loves getting their players Epics.  There is some really skilled competition on this server.  And Kingdom is made up of amazing players, great friends, and killer experiences. 

Enjoy the Photo Collage! For The Kingdom!

Fantastic job Kingdom on our First Time Kill of KLANDICAR!!!

Congratulations Kingdom on slaying Zlandicar!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING, KINGDOM!

In honor of this year's Thanksgiving Holiday, Kingdom is pleased to offer clemency to Norrath's national thanksgiving turkey ... er *checks notes*... stonegazer cockatrice, named Charlie the Cockatrice. The ceremony was attended by Pacatus, Pyrrh, Tiervan and Revaustt. Unfortunately, charm broke shortly thereafter and was killed in what is being called an "accident".

Kingdom hopes that all of our members, our friends on P99 Green, and the Project 1999 staff have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving holiday (or simply a great week for those who are not located in the United States).  We are thankful for this crazy community we all have here in Everquest Project 1999.

In honor of Euro week, we post this week's "week-at-a-glance" in French.

Cette semaine, le Royaume a vaincu la Statue et nous avons bien essayé l’Avatar de la Guerre mais il nous a échappé. Par contre, Dread, Trakanon, et quelques Vindicateurs & KDTs sont morts au Royaume, ainsi que Velketor le Sourcier et les minis du HOT. En plus, on a vaincu un petit Severilous en cachette, la grosse poisson KD, Ikiator, Telk, et — pour la toute première fois — Lady N ! En plus, nous avons eu une très belle tentative à Lady M avec la stratégie de triple kite +1 (stratégie bien brevetée par notre brave Anarke, bien entendu !).

Le point culminant de la semaine est justement notre victoire contre le roi Tormax, où tout de suite après on s’est dirigé vers le plan de la Peur où on a vaincu non seulement les golems de Fright et Dread mais aussi Cazic Thule lui-même remportant son cerveau magique au Royaume !

Pour la 2e semaine consécutive, nous avons complètement vidé le sommet de Veeshan et avons remporté 2 Crown of Rile et une robe ! La mort de Hoshkar dans l’antre du dragon était … soit amusant … soit pénible … selon à qui tu demandes. D’après moi j’ai beaucoup aimé !

La colère de Garzicor est morte pour nos confrères Trazer et Narbin.

Sur le plan des épiques : Xenevorash tué pour Gemninja. Porunga a reçu son épique Rogue. Verina Tomb a été localisée par Thifoleteum et aussi par Cirro. Kaymind a terminé son épique Shaman. Smols manie son épique Shadow Knight, et Shunin son épique Monk. Et une réussite bien épique en soi - Pacatus a enfin atteint le niveau 60.

Un GROS merci à Rolesaur pour la création de ses excellents affiches pour soutenir nos efforts dans le sommet de Veeshan.

English TLDR: Severilous, King Tormax, Dread, Fright, CT (Brain!), Aaryonar, Kelorek`Dar Fish Taco's, Ikatiar, Sevalak, Phara Dar (2x Crown 1x Robe!), Hoshkar, Silverwing, Lady Nevedaria, Druushk, Xygoz, Nexona. Lots of Epics. Pac is 60. Thanks Rolesaur.

“It was a normal Monday. I had an interview for a new pack carrier position to support an intrepid guild that fought around the land called Kingdom. I woke up, had my weekly bath and put on my finest tunic before going to the keep. I met with a Lord Stabtastic who was interviewing me for the position and walking me through everything that the Kingdom stood for. I must have said something right because I’d barely gotten through being equipped from the armory with Lady Larceni before I heard a terrifying voice from above saying that a server reset was imminent. What in the name of Bristlebane is server reset? Next thing you know I had a bag thrown over my head and everything was dark with the occasional screeching and clinking in my ears.

I came to and found myself first in the middle of several knights of the realm fighting a named…TURTLE? They made short work of it before whisking us off to the Temple of Veeshan and just started running like madmen towards Dozekar; ready to serve him another does of the punishment of endless death. He’d barely uttered his last curse before again I was teleported; this time to Kael and as the guards were shouting about the intruders and next thing you know not only has King Tormax stormed out; he’s fallen to the blade. Some cleric passes me a vial and tells me to sniff…I was in shock and just did it and BOOM I was in Thurgadin? Wait…are we here for a celebration…we just killed their enemy’s leader…NOPE apparently, they just like killing because next thing you know Dain is dead; his head ripped from his body and held in the air like some kind of trophy.

A druid grabs my hand and we’re in Cobalt Scar then Sirens Grotto then the Western Wastes and back at the Temple of Veeshan. Really? We haven’t killed enough? I guess not because I look up and, I’m halfling enough to say I’m thankful I brought a second pair of britches because, there was Ikatiar the Venom trying to bite me. I ran around the corner and hid with the clerics…at least they can rez me if I die. Ikitiar fell quickly and I felt myself being pulled around the waste and POP I was in the bosom of the temple. Where are we going now? It didn’t take long to figure out that we were after the inner circle of the Claws of Veeshan; Bristlebane protect me they wanted everyone on this continent to hate them; First Dagarn then Lord Kreizenn, then Lord Feshlak; one by one they fell. I guess after 3 literal assassination of the inner circle and their guards the fighters needed a break but I swear….they went mad, MAD I tell you. The Lord Cothatannii grabbed my hand and thrust me into the most freakish conga line between cheering monks and a cliff face of certain doom; right into the slaughter of Lord Koi’Doken; I guess fish is on the menu? Then what do we do? Conga right back to Lord Vyemm; of course that would be natural? Well the Kingdom met their match in Lord Vyemm; it was a brutal and brilliant fight which looked to be going in the Kingdom’s favour until a lucky (and quite dirty if you ask me) shot by the dragon took down the gnomish warrior, so coated in blood I don’t even know who it was. Knight Jumo tried to protect us but alas, if it weren’t for the quick hiding of the force, and some lucky hiding in some pocket dimension of a recovery team; the entire force would have been lost.

As Lord Vyemm’s reinforcements started to reappear and the Kingdom depleted the stash of potions and items I carried to resupply them they decided not to go home but to go to ANOTHER dungeon. We ran to Veeshan’s peak to slay Silverwing but alas Hoshkar and Phara Dar’s intricate dance of befuddlement proved too much for the already tired and resource deprived hero’s and their competitors. Wisely deciding to quiet the call to arms a cry for help was heard in the distance. The knights being bloody, bludgeoned and in need of a rest called for their squires. Lady Vox needed to be taken care of to protect the Northern City of Halas and several of those squires answered the call, and who am I to turn down overtime AND danger pay. The squires assembled from their various locations; dodging dangers and getting to Lady Vox’s lair and cautiously killing her Ice Giant guards before killing her soundly and ripping her coveted white scales from her cooling body. I’m sure bards will sing of this day for the victory was that epic.

A kind druid then took me home to Rivervale; my contract fulfilled and I washed and slept the sleep of a thousand days; and awoke to the spoils from an amazing adventure.”

Progression
/prəˈɡreSHən/
noun
the process of developing or moving gradually towards a more advanced state. "the normal progression from junior to senior status"

We always say, when Kingdom practices - Kingdom wins targets. Well with a full 7D cycle, followed by not ONE but TWO full resets (quake, and server reset) we got lots of practice. Our kill list is long and the weekend is a total blur but there are definitely memories that will last a lifetime...

Our 7D cycle was going quite nicely...
UDB-Trak(Pygal)
Velkator the Sorcerer (guild first Vermillion Robe of Torrefaction)
Fright/ Dread/Terror (3/3 Golem Sweep with 3/3 Golem Tears)
Vox (white scale)
Ikiator
King Tormax
Zlexak,
Super late window Dain
Hoshkar
Telkorenar ...

You know we're getting tired when we do an impromptu Conga Line over to our next target.

EPICS: Huge Congrats to the following:

Pygal Singing Short Sword

Pallordawn Fiery Defender

Baskethands Innoruuks Curse

Tiervan Staff of the Serpent

Roobii has a real talent for perfectly lined up mod rods.

HOWEVER, even with all of the above accomplishments still freshly on our minds, the highlight of the weekend was clearly this moment. No words need to be said.

So what do we all think - will there be another server restart to fix the boats?  Let's put our tin-foil caps on and go looking for Randy Trevor to see if we can predict the future.

October 11, 2021

Dear Diary,

Well I was standing there, minding my own business on top of the bell tower looking over a peaceful Plane of Fear, I swear they've finally accepted that I'm one of them after being here so long. It had been a LONG day of just sitting, gazing, pondering life really. I thought I saw my friend Draco at one point but alas...it was just a shadow. But then wait...is it...oh yes it is. I think to myself "DRACO my friend; you're so late, but better late than never." Then all these people charged in through the portal like they owned the place 1 then 2 then 3 then bless my stars there were 66 people that looked vaguely familiar. All of sudden the heavens shook and there Draco runs off; chasing after some short fellow named Belegol...now really Belegol? He's only going to be a snack...but then I start hearing cries of pain. They're killing him???? Jeesh he only just got here and he has to die before tea? Really? Then no longer do they kill him then they all run out...well I never...die and dash...BARBARIC.

So things calmed down a might more and Fear got back to it's peaceful self, the gorgons roosting as the fiends make their way about. Then of course, late again, the mister gets in. The Father of Lizards showed up beside me and we had a brief dance party before of course Cazic arrives and BELLOWS that we all attend him and I swear the entire neighbourhood showed up just to listen to his griping.

Again, the portal had people spewing out of it. I swear I turned around and there were 200 people in zone shouting and yelling. Draco went off to play with some group named after Seals, like really? Go to Kedge...there's water there. Then I turn around and Dread is falling to a group named Kingdom....AGAIN...someone named Tranqua got in over his britches and hit Terror before running off. But then Kingdom, not even phased went and killed Fright. Honestly the triplets never hurt anyone intentionally, they can't control their Death touches. Then someone named Shinko started yelling about a kite and first to engage. No one asked anyone to marry them so what's this about an engagement? Well most of Kingdom got killed when one of their own showed all my friends where they were hiding and Terror sadly fell to those Seal folks...who really don't look like they could even swim. Then that group tried to kill Cazic...my beloved...I tried to run to his side but I couldn't move paralyzed in fear. I really shouldn't have worried because 20 minutes later their corpses were strewn about and there was Cazic looking as muddily handsome as ever.

Those Sealers regrouped yet again...but this time they seemed just angry and ill prepared because of course my Cazic just flicked them off as they seemingly tried death by 100 papercuts...it didn't work and more corpses littered the field.

But those Kingdom friends? foes? what do you call your friends when they try to kill your husband? Anyways they had convinced others of Cazic's horde to join in the fight and I heard his cries of pain. I was conflicted. Who do I help? I saw them dying as Cazic's health went down...but they kept getting resurrected and running back into battle; a few minutes more passed and I was still frozen before I heard Cazic's final deafening cry as he fell to the Kingdom. There was much cheering as they raised their dead and healed up. I'm still torn on if I should be excited for them or sad for Cazic...but wait...what's this?

Oh a letter from Cazic appeared..."don't worry love, I'll be back in about 7 days...don't go anywhere.” Maybe we’ll even get to have tea or I’ll make something out of all these berries I found waiting for him before another group tries to kill him.

Yours truly,

Scaryteri

He's right, though, we're overdue for an update. Plus, we're in the business of not making tanii sad, and business has been booming.

Here are some ways we haven't made tanii sad recently:

We went ahead and bagged our first ST key (GRATS NARBIN!) courtesy our old friend, LTK. Like literally old. Is this elder abuse? Probably.

We continued the streak of abuse by sending King Tormax (via sexy FTE from Sauwer/Rebale) to the nether realm:

Rolled the dice to see if Sev was worth the while (spoiler alert: yup):

Watched Pyrrh pick on someone not-her-own-size:

Made whoever the triplets' mom is very sad by whacking Cek and Sev (wait, is that LTK again? Wow, we are doing some really messed up stuff in this temple):

Got some cool stuff from Eashen that'll age like wine:

Showed Dagarn who the real destroyers are:

Enjoyed the delicacy of a double Manna Robe Trak (what does it mean?!?!):

Watched in awe as Basket Hands, Best Shadow Knight on the Server (not subjective), masterfully tanked yet another Lady Vox:

Took a quick jaunt over to Jorrleag:

Had a saucy late night rendezvous with Aary:

Snagged ourselves some tasty epics:

Finished some Doze loot (grats terps & Pacatus!):

A couple ring wars, like the one we're doing right now! As I write this! (don't tell anyone I was writing this while we were doing ring war pls):

And uh.... did I mention we SPAT IN THE FACE OF A GOD?!?!

Led to victory by our fearless tanii, after which he was definitively not sad:

Like I said. Business is boomin.

Also we got Lockjaw rawrrrrr

Not to mention Ikatiar the Venom, Statue, Silverwing, Hoshkar, Phara Dar, Druushk, Xygoz, Nexona, another Trakanon, a few Vindis, several Fear 2.0 golems, some triggered Fays, some Undead Bards, and a couple broken golems.

God we do a lot of stuff. Wanna come do some stuff with us? Come do some stuff with us.
