Subject: [EverQuest] Something strange happened in Butcherblock Yesterday (11/25/04) Kuyena and I werre over in Butcherblock trying to find her a Basalisk tounge to help finish her armor quest. Anyway after I poped in through the book there was a Barbarian Shaman standing there. Her name was Shaman Traxa and she was asking for certain items. At first I couldn't tell if she was a real player who had bad faction and couldn't go get the stuff because the guards would KOS her or if she was a new NPC, when doing a /who she would not show up. There was a froggy there by the name of Rattlehead who was trying to find the stuff so I asked her if this was a quest or a real person. Rattlehead didn't know herself so I began to ask Shaman Traxa some questions to try and find out. Shaman Traxa would do things that really threw me off, she acted like a NPC but then acted like a player. I would ask her if she was a real player or a NPC and she replied with "What is a NPC?" and then I apologiezed for being rude (if she was a real person) and explained why I was asking all the questions and told her I am confused about her and she replied "What confused?" I wish I would have turned my /log on to have gotten the full text but as you can see by her actions (sitting and casting SoW on another toon) and her text it was as if she was a RL player but not quite. Anyway after recieving all the items she would turn into a red Dragon and then attack you. Oh and during this time there would be little things like in emote text it would say "Shaman Traxa opens a book and begins to read from it." followed by yellow text "Sparks flash across the sky". And when she turned into a dragon there was in yellow text a "SCHREEEEEAAAAACCCCHHHHHHH!". Anyway there was another person there named Cometome who was a much higher level toon buffing and healing us while we were fighting Shaman Traxa. He told me that only lowbies can kill it when I said I was going to go get Durgaa. Upon killing Shaman Traxa the loot was all the items we had gathered per her request plus a Fire Emerald. Oh and after she killed Rattlehead she summoned her back and Rattlehead was in her exact image. So my thoughts on this was it was either a GM event, (I know I already got into a debate with someone about what "uber level" GM events usually are), A new quest in Butcher Block, A test of something new by Sony such as using AI (Artificial Intelligence), or a real player doing all this. I've heard rumors that you can now go to other servers with your toons but I haven't tried it yet. If so can a PVP go to a non-PVP server? Maybe this was the case and some guys wanted to have some fun? But why did Shaman Traxa not appear on /who then? So many questions - so little answers. If anyone has seen anything on this or knows anything about it please let me know! I can't sleep at night anymore! LOL Visit the EverQuest homepage at http://www.everquest.com | |||
