Afternoon lovelies

We would like your help in promoting a place, on the Europa shard, where returning players can live whilst they get their heads back into the systems and rhythms of UO. As any returning player will probably tell you the first feeling when logging back into UO is bewilderment. There have been so many changes and there seem to be so few ways of finding out the answers you need to get yourself back into the Sosarian way of life.

Returning players will most likely have a little gold stashed away, some older (and most likely useless) armour and weapons and some ideas of how the game works. They are not new players, they have an idea of what they would like to do and how they wish to play. They do not want babysitting, they just need a momentary helping hand whilst they find old friends or new ones, whilst they decide if it will be crafting or pvping that they want to pursue.

We already have the daily bank meeting where questions can be asked and answered (you would be surprised at the numbers of returning players who stop in for a while as they acclimatise once more).

Some of us were granted access to a castle recently with the intention of building a place for returning players to reside in, temporarily, until they find their feet. It is now ready and awaiting occupants. It is fully kitted out and the RAA alliance have stocked it with some useful equipment and advice. There is a meeting place within where we hope the returning folk can congregate and build their own group of friends and adventurers.

Several room have been designed as dormitories with locked secure storage for each individual player. The idea is simple, stay for as long as you wish, use the castle as your base of operations, leave when you are find your own path.

So...if you come across a returner who needs a temporary home direct them to us at the West Britain bank meeting (6-7pm UK time, every single evening) or get them to contact myself @Valura @Minerva Foxglove or @Petra Fyde . We will find them and set them up.

Safe travels all.

Thank you for the offer! What we need most are people to help answer questions, help hunt, be friendly! The returners could be looking to explore any one of our wonderful games many features and the wider the base of knowledge, the easier will be their return! Come along for a chat to the Britain bank meeting!

I have to say I was quite impressed with how helpful everyone was! Shout out to Sir Luke for the keep he gifted as a "starter home" and the kind soul who gave my pantsless self a full suit of LRC to get myself trained with (and clothed!!)
I am considering... once I get my footing... to perhaps create a guild for like minded returners and new players alike to find a home and explore all there is to see.

Yeh. I just gave some ingots and runics for Mimi. I hope those come handy for some starting crafters.

You just looked a little cold sat there next to me, so a new pair of trousers was the least I could do! Especially after telling you your leather trousers were semi-rare and you should take them off....
Not many other games online you could get away with a sentence like that! :eek:
