IC:
Tensions are rising between our Dwarvesbane guild and many of the dwarves in the land. Peace talks have failed, and some of our good people have been attacked. We have struck back with a few dwarf assassinations, but it appears that all-out war will break out soon. The times will be dangerous for us, but this is our opportunity to finally wipe the dwarven pestilence from our fine Yliakum!
OOC:
War is coming! Starting on Saturday, June 3, at 00:00 GMT, a guild war will break out between Dwarvesbane and a new, all-dwarf guild called Dwarven Star. With this war, anyone from one guild can attack anyone from the other guild, without a /challenge! Certain rules have been agreed upon in a meeting with leaders from both parties:
Safe Zones (no attacking allowed):
Ojaveda (inside walls)
Hydlaa (inside walls)
Laanx Temple
Death Realm
War Zones (attacking allowed):
Oja Road
Hills, including The Ruins
Arena
Jayose's Library
Sewers
Dungeon
Magic Shop
Forest Path
All weapons, magic and potions are allowed! This is war, not a duel, so be prepared.

There will be no OOC flaming or arguing here. This is non-negotiable. The next person to start an argument in this thread will regret it. Arguing will lead to me asking that your posting privileges be removed for this board. So don't argue.
-
Are non-members of Dwarvesbane or Dwarven Star allowed to get involved, if they particularly support one side or the other? Or will it be restricted to just the members of those two guilds?

IC:
Xylaal is fighting in the arena. She has just said goodbye to her friend Indygo the Dwarf and continues chit chatting playfully with her friend Zhai. Drahlian Brao, with whom Xylaal has spoken with upon occasion, strolls by just as Xylaal finishes off a rogue.
After a pleasant greeting, Drahlian produces a box wrapped in plain paper and offers the gift to Xylaal. Xylaal is very curious and despite Zhai’s warnings accepts her offer. After all, Drahlian has always been kind to Xylaal. She unwraps it and finds a plain pine box with an iron clasp. When she opens the box, a darkness of unimaginable depth is emitted…the object inside is deep...dark. It is beautiful and places Xylaal into a momentary trance. Is someone chanting in her ear…Drahlian? Xylaal cannot remember.
When she awakens she feels strange...she knows now that she doesn't like dwarves much...she doesn't like dwarves at all! How could this be? This is not Xylaal...is it?
She wonders how she could have ever been in a guild with dwarves in it and quits the Guardians of Power to join Dwarvesbane.
She does not see it but she has a dark cloud over her and Drahlian’s spell is a strong one… A spell that made her heart dark and turned Xylaal against the dwarves that she loves. Perhaps it can be broken…and perhaps not.

Pale,
This war is only between Dwarvesbane and Dwarven Star guilds. If you want to fight in this war, you'll need to join one of those two guilds. Dwarven Star is made up of only dwarves, but if you're a dwarf I'm sure they'd love to have you.

It seems alot of people are wondering what a loner like Kergen is doing in Dwarvesbane and now that this thread exists
I will tell a brief story.
Harnquist was bustling with activity as Kergen stood about chatting and waiting for an opportunity to make trouble for someone,...anyone when Beanius approaches. 'Hello Kergen' 'Hello Beanius'.
'Drahlian told me to give this to you.' It was something wrapped in silk, something about the size of a dagger. As Kergen unwrapped it he noticed a faint glow, even in the azure light he could see it. He thought in his mind 'It's beauty is unrivaled, a rare blade indeed.'
He looks up at Beanius and down again to the dagger. 'What is it?" Beanius seemed most interested and eyed the blade curiously,...perhaps too curiously. The blade seemed to hum silently in his grasp.
'He wants it, don't let him touch it or he will take it.' the voice in his mind said in a voice ringing with certainty.
'It is a dagger.' Kergen holds it so Beanius can see but his eyes study Beanius warily.
'But what kind is it?' queried the young Demorian.
'I do not know but it is beautiful, I will have to thank her.' said Kergen before putting it away from more nosey prying eyes.
He continued to mill about and take part in chit chat but his mind was on the dagger. He thought he could feel some kind of power in it.
As the day progressed Kergen grew more and more irritable than his normal self. He hadn't noticed but most of his irritation was toward Hammerweilders and Stonebreakers but he thought nothing of it and that night returned to his shanty in the wilds for a meal and finally some much needed sleep.

[Peacer Cuardian]
Peacer is in the wilds with magic flying defending himself from the trepors attacking him. When he is about to fire a fireball against the leader of a pack of trepors he hears a whisper from the shadows "Anfa says drahlian has Xylaal." This makes him put to much power into his fireball as he yells "WHAT?" And the fireball get's the size of a minor globe blowing up the pack of trepors. He hears the soft chiter of the shadows laughing..."Anfa is upset." Peacer looks around for more trepors and goes to loot what is left of the body parts left from the trepors and puts them into his sack. He takes forth his blessed vial and starts drinking it to the bottom, he holds it in front of his head to watch it get magically refilled. He sends a magical bolt to the azure crystal signalling that to the guardians to meet him at the stone gate on oja road. Some minutes later the guardians awake meets him at the stone gate.
Peacer looks at boomer and then at giniley "good you came so fast! I believe you all know of the dwarvesbane guild?"
Boomer nods and giniley says "Im not entirely sure. Can you tell me more?" Peacer focuses his attention on giniley and starts explaining to the curious looking giniley "it is a guild, individuals who hate dwarves are united as one to slay them and trty getting rid of them." Giniley says "I see... Who established it?" Peacer answers giniley's question "Drahlian did!" Giniley looked as she had understood it and Peacer continued "It seems as Drahlian is recruiting members for some war comming up, I don't really know much of it only overheard some words in the death realm where i was training magic. The members she is recruiting is not against their free will, she uses a magical artifact to trick their minds into hating dwarves. At first she recruited some rather unknown to us, and some less unknown such as kergen, we were going to help theese poor victims who has suffered robbery of their freedom, not by joining the war but by releasing them from their status."
Peacer recognizes boomer and giniley narrowed their eyes a bit at the thought and waited a bit untill he continued "Now she made a mistake, brother Boomer, sister giniley, she has taken Xylaal!" Boomer and Giniley didn't seem to happy about the news, boomer said "Bugger! Not xylaal, this can't be happening!" Peacer lowers his head and replies "i am afraid it is!" Giniley comments "Is that a WOMAN? I can't imagine" Giniley frowns "I often drunk beer with her in the tavern. It was always a lot of fun! But we DO need to help xylaal, so ... what's the plan?" Boomer nods agreeingly at giniley and says "i think we should go to war against them, they can't go unpunished from this!" Peacer smiles "that was my plan to, giniley do you agree?" Giniley nods agreeingly.
Peacer looks at boomer and giniley "but we won't kill xylaal." Boomer asks "but how do we do this?" Peacer replies "we stay away from her, i am sure she won't kill us to" Boomer frowns and replies "I know better than accept challenge from Xylaal anyway" Peacer smiles "that's good to hear!" GIniley asks "You'll never know. Her mind is manipluated dont forget that." Pecer thinks a bit and tries tries to come with a statement "she hates dwarves not us..." Boomer laughs and says "I like the little buggers. I think they're cute" Peacer grins at the thought.
Peacer Bows politely to boomer and giniley "in the meantime we will try to warn every guardian, namaarie ar' quel marth"[farewell and good luck] Boomer and giniley bows in return and Peacer thinks "i must train" and goes to the trepors again with a various collection of books.

After numberous failed peace talks, war has arrived in Yliakum!
Today an army of 11 dwarves, banded together under the flag of Dwarven Star, marched to the city gates of Hydlaa, on a mission to crush the Dwarvesbane guild. Peace had no chance, with 7 or 8 dwarf-slayers facing so many dwarves. The leaders from both side, Bodacher and Drahlian, faced each other, then declared a war between the guilds. Drahlian attacked Bodacher, but fell to his mighty swords. Seeing their leader fall, Dwarvesbane charged, and a mighty battle ensued.
Much blood was shed, and when it was over, 18 bodies bloodied the road outside Hydlaa gate. Only a single survivor remained, a Dwarf-hater named Ayess, bleeding from numerous wounds as he stumbled into the city in search of a healer.
Later that day, four or five Dwarvesbane assassins laid seige to Hydlaa city, and held back assault after assault from the dwarves within.
There are some screenshots of the first battle of the war here:
http://dwarvesbane.vanhoosen.net/screenshots/index.html
I talked with many dwarves after the battles, as well as my guildmates, and everyone has agreed that it has been a lot of fun. I hope it continues to be enjoyable for all.

[From the journal of Gan, "Long Beard"]
A message sent to the Dragon Council on his account of the 1st day of battle.
Gan sits down at a small table in the Dwarven camp & pulls out some parchment, a quill & a small bottle of ink. He begins writing down his account of the 1st days fighting.
My fellow Dragons, the 1st day of fighting has come to an end. Much blood was spilled on both sides. It all started when we gathered in Oja road near bandit valley so that we could march on the city of Hydlaa & confront the Dwarvesbane & put a stop to their murderous ways.
The enemy came out to meet us on the road in front of the city gates. At least they didn't hide behind the city walls. General Bodacher confronted Drahlian, their leader, to announce our intentions. There was much shouting by both sides & I am not sure exactly what happened between our General & the despicable Drahlian. Then, all of a sudden, General Bod & this woman were fighting. Both sides held there ground to observe what would happen. Soon the Dwarf hater Drah lay died at General Bod’s feet.
The Dwarf haters charged our lines & an all out battle ensued. Many of Hydlaa’s citizens came out to watch the confrontation. It made it difficult for the warriors to target the enemy. But I am sure they were there to support us. Blood from both sides ran like water in a stream. I saw Bodacher fall, then Proglin, then Einnol & other Dwarven Brothers. At the end of this 1st battle, myself & 2 other Dwarves were left standing. I had killed 2 of the enemy myself.
No sooner had this battle finished & the 3 of us where standing there, over looking the carnage & trying to catch our breaths, a loan Dwarf hater, who wasn’t in the main battle, snuck up from behind us and slew 1 of our survivors. I turned to face this assassin & got in 2 quick blows. He blocked the 1st & I crippled him with the 2nd but he didn’t fall (was using daggers at the time & did 198 dmg). He then struck me down with one blow from one of his short swords. (It was said that this was an alt of Drahlain’s but don't know that for sure).
I put away my daggers & decided to use my trusty Silverweave Short Swords of the Defender the rest of the day. The enemy kept massing in the road outside of Hydlaa’s main gate. We mounted numerous charges. We would gather just inside the city gates then charge their lines. I recall at least 3 such charges. It is hard to remember the exact number now as it was all out war. One of those charges we had decided not to actually fight, but to charge through their lines and re-group at the magic shop. We wanted to draw the fighting away from the city so that no spectators, as I said earlier there were many, would get hurt. But in the fog of war, many of our brothers didn’t understand the orders, as only General Bodacher & I executed the plan. Bod & I waited for a long time but only 1 other Dwarf, Gon of the Dragon Council, made it past their lines.
I had decided to go back up the road to see what was happening. I didn’t get far, (just past the map load point), when I encountered missile fire. I couldn’t see where the attack was coming from so I ran back to the Magic Shop to buy healing potions as the missile fire did a significant amount of damage. I was in the process of purchasing potions from the shop keeper when a Dwarf Hater entered (I couldn’t see him do to the fact that I had the buying screen open). Before I knew what was happening I was under attack & unable to defend myself & fell (the Magic Shop is a legal battle area).
At the end of the day there was only 1 member of the Dwarvesbane holding the road (he was the only one left on-line). Brother Gondric when out to face him alone. He fell. I next went out to confront this last threat. He started by using magic missile fire while I was closing in on him. We next engaged in one on one combat. This dance of death lasted a few minutes before I finally was able to crush him with a blow from one of my trusty Short Swords. This gave me my 7th kill of the day. I fell twice in combat, once to the sneak attacker & once inside the magic shop. So with only falling twice in actual combat while taking out 7 of the enemy I wasn’t too disappointed in my performance on this 1st day of battle.
My fellow Dragons so ends my report on this, the 1st day of battle in this war to end the threat that is posed to the Dwarven race.
Gan rolls up the peace of parchment & ties it to the leg of a small bird. Gan speaks softly to the little creature: “Go little bird, deliver this message to the Dragon Council”. Gan releases the bird into the air. He puts away his quill & ink then lies down to get a good night sleep.

Xylaal lays in the grass starring at the great crystal in the sky. The spell that Drahlian put on her was broken. She is once again in the Guardians of Power. Her new armor is still a bit uncomfortable; she burned her bloodstained armor in honor of those fallen Dwarves she had slain. She is grateful for the big hearts of Indygo, Proglin, Ganinos and all whom have forgiven her yet she hasn't quite forgiven herself. As the war rages on in the distance, she can only hope that the soul of this level that she loves so much will survive.
[I had a blast....I think everyone did....thanks Drahlian ;D]

Well then let me post some so the dwarfs can have the same warm fuzzies. ;)

War update:
The war seemed to be cooling down a bit, but then the dwarves commited a travesty, renewing our anger and hatred of their kind. Below I have written an account of what happened yesterday, in front of Harnquist's blacksmith shop, in a safe zone! Four dwarves assaulted poor, innocent Beanius, tied him to a tree, and continued to humiliate and beat him mercilessly! I was not there, otherwise much dwarf blood would have been spilt, but I have composed a description of the events based on what I was told by a number of witnesses, including the honorable Harnquist [Beanius sent me his chat logs].
It sounds as if it started with a small dwarf spit on Beanius. Beanius responded by challenging him to a duel, then proceeding to beat the dwarf senseless for several minutes with his bare hands. Apparently he kept the dwarf on the brink of death for a very, very long time, slapping him and striking him to a bloody pulp, and periodically shooting magical arrows into the dwarf's limbs to keep him from escaping, and many others were required to continually cast healing spells to keep the dwarf from dying. This was a duel both agreed upon, and as I see it, Beanius gave the dwarf a fitting punishment for an insult.
Apparently some dwarves who witnessed this honorable duel felt Beanius went a tad bit too far, and decided to break war agreements and assaulted the poor elf. The offending Dwarven Star dwarves were Indygo, Kimhari, Einnol and Deek. They attacked him together, overcame him with some difficulty, then tied him to a tree and gagged him. Then they proceeded to humiliate him, beat him and strike him with fish and rotten meat. He was finally rescued by the brave and honorable enki known as Eid.
Below is the account of what happened, if anyone is interested in the details.
Note: Harlohim was an innocent bystander.
[ OOC: I wish I had been there to see it, it sounds like some good RP took place. :) ]
-Drahlian
(19:37:16) Harlohim says: hmm, perhaps they can smell their "pack mates"
(19:37:27) Beanius says: Ah... yes.
(19:37:30) Beanius says: That must be it!
(19:37:40) Beanius says: The blood of their litter is all over my armor.
(19:37:54) Beanius frowns. "That explains it completely."
(19:38:03) Beanius says: Maybe I should go wash up.

(19:39:18) Beanius says: I'm afraid to run, Harlohim... That will just make their fight instinct kick in.
(19:39:27) Beanius says: Any suggestions?
(19:39:49) Harlohim giggles, perhaps if you just walk away slowly
(19:39:59) Beanius says: Maybe if I tied them up, one by one.

(19:42:52) Beanius starts to sweat when he sees another dwarf

(19:52:09) Beanius says: Mmmm!!
(19:52:16) Beanius says: MMMGGRRMNN!
(19:52:37) Indygo runs up and puts the apple core in Beanius' mouth. "Let HIM see what its like not to be HEARD by others."

(19:55:31) Beanius struggles against the ropes one more time, then finally gives up and slumps.
(19:55:34) Einnol chuckles.
(19:56:05) Einnol says: Well done everyone.
(19:56:17) Deek says: so why would an otherwise reasonably intelligent being be in league with such foul ideals?

That beanius, I wonder what he would have done without me. *shakes her head and giggles* [she doesn't understand the reality of war, thinking it's some game that's fun to watch]
[ooc]
HAHAHAHA, that was so much fun. there were a great many monty python refferences (which have since been removed) which added even more. Oh, and to people who may not have known, the first line about smelling "pack mates" was an attempt to explain to beanius why the dwarves were all gathering around him violently in words he would understand.

Zhai's eyes are shut, her voice lost... Her last memory is being tricked by Kergen when she tried one more time to break the spell that holds him in Drahlian's forces... he pretended to remember and she lowered her guard and now everything's a shadow around her, with no air, no space, no hope... only one thought remains as she loses all her senses: "help..."
:'(
[update: 10-12 of june]
After revealing her new self to those who once were her friends, Zhai charges against the dwarves as one of the Dwarvesbane. She's a completely different person now, possessed by an evil spirit called Angadu. She faced Farren Kutter, Master Ranger of the Rangers of Yliakum, Zhai's true guild. They fought at the gate of Ojaveda after the dwarvesbane took control and Farren was defeated. Days after, however, the dark spirit was unveiled by Anfa and him. The spirt fled to the underworld before they could find out more about the whereabouts of the real Zhai. His hatred now is also aimed at Anfa and the Rangers of Yliakum...

OOC:
[An embellishment of the battle between me and Zhai is coming soon]
[and here it is as written by the Master Ranger himself]
Zhai vs. Farren
[Embellishment of the Battle between the Master Ranger and the subverted Ranger Zhai]
Farren Kutter, the Master Ranger, leader of the Rangers of Yliakum, walks up towards the gates of Ojaveda for his monthly visit, a look of slight sorrow on his eyes. One of his best Rangers and friends, Zhai, had been taken and somehow subverted against him by Drahlian. He nears the gates and sees a female Enkidukai. As he draws nearer, he is disheartened with the grim realization of who it is. Standing in the gateway of Ojaveda is Zhai. But she appeared different, darker, wild. Seeing her, the pained Master Ranger stops, mind racing, thinking of what he should do. The once-Ranger enkidukai walks up to him.
"Zhai..." says Farren, lost as to what else to say to the creature in front of him as his former friend looks to him. She wasn't Zhai anymore, not truly. The Ranger he knew did not have eyes filled with darkness such as hers. The subverted Enkidukai readies her blades, an action she had never performed in hostility against a Ranger before. The leader of the Rangers feels a deep pit forming in his stomach. "Zhai, don't do this..." he says. But Zhai just stares at him, blades ready, dark eyes focused. "I can't win. I can't fight my own Ranger. Not full-heartedly." he adds.
Again, the other replies with silence. Resigned to the inevitable outcome of this battle, Farren sighs and says, "But if you are against the dwarves, you are against me." At this, Zhai, in an unrecognizable voice, says "You won't have her back, Farren Kutter." her eyes burning with hatred as she does so. Seeing this, the Master Ranger crouches slightly, his blades out and held in a slightly defensive position. He gives a half-smile and, with a hint of confidence in his voice, but apparent sadness in his eyes, replies, "I think I will... Eventually."
Zhai replies saying, "... Fool...", to which Farren promptly returns to his true personality for an instant, replying with a smile, "A fool only when I was the Jokester of the Guild Knights. I am the Master Ranger. I may not be the greatest physical fighter. But I tend to overcome odds in other aspects." The former Ranger senses something about Farren that threatens, and decides to end the threat before it causes too much trouble. She raises her blades and readies herself to charge at her former leader. Farren lowers himself into a full defensive crouch, ready to counter-attack his former friend. "Will you really attack me?" he asks with a deep sorrow, knowing the answer even as he asked the question. The subverted Enkidukai's answer is silence as she crouches, about to attack.
Zhai lunges forward at the Master Ranger, both swords slicing for him, but he rolls to the side, slashing her lightly with one of his short swords. "Hmm... Well this is a first, fighting my own ranger." he remarks, more to himself than anyone. He rises from the crouch he landed his roll in, and parries the others' blade as it soars in at his chest, bringing his other shortsword up to parry the other as it slashes from the side. Zhai backs off for a few seconds and then charges the ranger, both blades in a semi-defensive position, ready to switch to an attack. as she reaches him, Farren falls backwards, rolling his body back a little and pulling his feet in front of him and catching the former Ranger in the stomach, vaulting her over him to land in a heap on the ground and using the momentum of it to roll backwards to his feet. Taking a lunge forward, he spins to face his old friend.
Zhai gets up and begins her attack on Farren anew. She succeeds in opening a gash on his arm, and then another across his side, attacking furiously. Farren is horrified at how much she has changed. This was not the style of his friend. He takes many more hits, delivering a few blows himself, but not fully able to bring himself to attack the other full out. Weakening from his various wounds, the Master Ranger flees to the Death Realm.
[thanx for the story Farren :woot: ]

Drahlian runs through the dark forest, ignoring the stings of the branches slapping her face as she crashes through them. Finally she stops, panting heavily, thought more from anger than from fatigue. She allows her anger to fill her, going over her memories of the recent battle.
Somehow the dwarves had prevailed. All her fellow warrior fallen to the blades of the dwarves, though all but one of the dwarves fell as well. For a moment she relishes the memory of felling dwarf after dwarf, particularly the fierce Proglin, who struck down so many of her friends. At the end, only she and the dwarven general, Bodacher, faced each other on the battlefield. Their struggle was fierce, but somehow Bodacher got his blade through just before he fell from his many dagger wounds. This war was over, and not the way she had envisioned.
Then her rage began to build again, as she remembered watching as the strange kran priest passed around his accursed apples. The spells she had worked so hard to cast and to maintain, holding the minds of Kergen, Acka and Dowanger in her control, fell away as they each ate those horrible apples. Curse that kran! Her guild has fallen to pieces as most of her surviving warriors turn on her, her mighty army now in shreds. Only Zhai remains under her spell, but she senses the opposing magic pulling at her hold on the enki's mind.
Drahlian can't help wonder who is still with her. Has Sardit's mind been affected as well? Has his hatred of dwarves diminished, or has it increased like her own? What of Beanius, the childish elf who cannot understand dwarven speech and thinks them animals? Has he survived, and will he stand with her?
She finally puts these worries aside, knowing that soon, it won't matter. Her power, growing everyday from her unmentionable friends from darker worlds, will soon be enough to eliminate the dwarves by herself. Contemplating these things, she slowly starts drawing a pentragram in the soil and starts a low, monotone chant...
[OOC...
Thank you all my Dwarvesbane friends and the Dwarven Star dwarves! I thoroughly enjoyed our war, and I know my guildmates did as well. Our final battles were exciting, and your victory, though only a victory by a tiny margin, was well earned. Also thank you to all those that participated in many RP sessions centered around the war. The war went much better than I dared to hope.

Recovering strength in the underworld after Proglin defeated him with a brilliant performance (for a dwarf anyways), Angadu, the spirit in control of Zhai's body, answers again the call of Mistress Drahlian. "This is just the beginning... Everything will go as planned now...", he tells her.
:devil:
[thanx a lot to the dwarven star and dwarvesbane for letting me be a part of it, i had a blast. illori, thank you for the great screenies of the last battle. let's see how all this ends... and somebody please rescue me already! ;D]
-
[Workin on it Zhai... ;)]
-
:woot: I liked every little bit I just read. The stories posted in this thread are well written. I am finally up to date on this war! \o/ Sounds like you are all having a wicked time, and I shall continue to check this thread for new stories posted. Yay to roleplay! It is a shame though, I was just getting to know the "good, not so angry" Zhai, I liked her very much. Though it is also eye opening that even the nicest of us can turn at any moment. :devil: Suspense in a roleplay a wonderful thing!

Anfa stands quietly looking across the open countryside, the memory of Zhai's cries of pain still echoing in her mind. Anfa's hands tighten the grip on her swords as she takes a deep breath to control the pain of knowing Zhai's soul is still trapped and being tormented by the dark spirit within Zhai's body. Anfa looks towards Hydlaa wondering if Farren has yet found a way to free the soul of Zhai and banish the dark spirit? With one last glance across the seemingly peaceful countryside Anfa heads to Hydlaa to find Farren knowing she can not return to the gathering in the wyldewood until Zhai is free once more.
"I am coming my sister...I will not rest til you are free...."

I havn't even played yet but when I start (and I have already decided to be a dwarf) can I join the Dwarf Star Guild and fight in the war? ;D
It would be cool, atleast when im a good enough level :)
-
The war's over and I think both guilds have been disbanded. So... no.
-
[OOC]
Siteri is correct. Dwarven Star was only temporary to begin with. Many of us were already in other guilds. It was a lot of fun.
Good choice being a dwarf tho (but I am biased). ;) Now you just need to decide if you want to be a Stonebreaker or a Hammerwielder.
Look around in the Guild Forum and in-game and take your time finding a guild that suits your character. I am sure you will find one.
-
Thanks for the info ;)
And I think I want to be a stonebreaker because of their high Strength and Inteligence :)
-
Eck! Don't be one because of the stats! This ain't a powelrlevel paradise! This is RP heaven this is! Stonebreaks are a proud and determain race, with strong hands cause of the .... well... stone breaking ;) Chose what suits your character, do not chose out of your lust for... *bwegh* Higher stats.

Everyone knows that Hammerwielders are better than Stonebreakers. We are slightly taller & better looking. ;D :)
