HELP! Can you ID this Evil/Hero circa 2000 gump?

Hello everyone,

For research purposes...I am attempting to find an original OSI screenshot of how the Evil / Hero system for life force points was used to purchase items.

"Life force points are expended when a character invokes his/her powers. TBB & COM use the phrase ‘I invoke my good powers’ SL and MNX use the phrase ‘I invoke my evil powers’. These phrases trigger a menu with the following options."

  • Colored Armor
  • Detect Evil/Good
  • Summon Familiar
  • Bless
  • Silver/Dark steed
  • Holy/Unholy Shield


I have searched the bowels of the internet and there is not a single picture I can find of this old looking menu/gump. Does anyone recall what this menu looked like or by the grace of God have a picture of it still from about 2000-2001?

thank you for any input.

Could try to look for a free shard that has a rule set from that period? See if they have the classic Gump. Would be a super unique shard with Siege rule set but who knows.

Thanks for the reply, I will try that but I do not think there are any current classic freeshards out there that have Siege rulesets.

Gosh - it has been too long - sorry I can not remember. I am looking for an old screenshot but I have had too many hard disk crashes over the years to have much hope.

So I came across this forum post. In that thread...the discussion of white armor and black armor being initiaizted by using the phrases:
White armor - Vidda K'balc - Invoking this power, then targeting an equipped piece of armor turns it white. When unequipped, the item returns to its natural color. - 1 - 1
Black armor - Vidda K'balc - Invoking this power, then targeting an equipped piece of armor turns it true black. When unequipped, the item returns to its natural color. - 1 - 1

Although this information is pertaining to "pre-factions", was their actually even a menu at ALL for the Evil/Hero system? or was it just "string" based command of which initiated a target cursor to hue a clothing item; rather ice white, or evil mage black?

I don't recall how it was done before factions but I do know that before a certain patch hero and evil dyed items could be equipped by anyone and they retained their hero/evil color.
