Genesis Forums

This was the wizard situation today. I haven't felt like such a young and inexperienced wizard in years. All my mentors together with me in one room. Crazy stuff!

So fun to have them back and catching up with current times and old memories. Who knows, maybe we'll see them around!

Can only hope.
Need more wizards to work.
So things get done.

very very cool!

I see old people!

Dont know them, but I guess they must be very important

Think these were in fact the very first old fogeys, long before there were any other players in game.

Elessar is indeed one of the oldest people in the history of the game. He played Genesis back before the current version was implemented in 1992-93, probably starting in 1991, before Sparkle existed and guilds like the Notorious Hellfire club were available. He went on to create one of the first domains in Genesis, founding Gondor and becoming its first Liege. He created one of the first guilds, the Rangers, and many original concepts with his creative and prolific vision (such as the first messengers in the game - pigeons.)

Olorin came soon after, becoming a wizard for Gondor, and working to expand its vision, creating Minas Morgul and the Morgul Mages, as well as many wonderful things besides. Some time later, Olorin took on a frustrating new Madwand (apprentice wizard rank at the time) who had no idea how to code. This Madwand failed three separate times as a wizard before finally realizing it was what he enjoyed most. That Madwand, of course, was me, and I've never forgotten my teachers.

Ah ... Genesis history!

Can you share anything for your chats with them? ie: What brought them to pop in? Their thoughts on current Genesis status?

Now we're just waiting for Lars to logg on

Or Ged, Nogard, Malkontent, Sarr, Kammie, Stern and so on
