    Could also be a homage to Ultima Underworld 2 - trapping the demon in that glazed jar, using the jar on yourself, then using the demon to power the horn &c&c&c

    HEY! That came with UW1 _and_ UW2! Remember, UW1 was before Doom; looked better, ran beter, played better (not that I wasn't a little Doomhead back then...)

    Anyway, give the Underworlds a shot. Worth it. Definitely.

    Etalis: What is Monty Python?
    Saint_Proverbius: Who is Mos Eilsy?
    Rojo: Which half-orc and halfling is that?
    Janus the Cruel: I don't get the George Bush thing.
    andyg: What is Dante's Divine Comedy?
    TechDude: What's a TNG?
    Etalis: What does NCR mean?

    If I miss anything out, just send me a note.

    Etalis: What about Brahmin?

    Brahmin are those 2 headed cows from fallouts... there is a 2 headed cow in H.T. Parnells... Brahma is actually some kinda Indian religious thing, but i dunno much bout that.

    Etalis: What is Monty Python?

    Monty Python is a series of Britich films/sketches with British humor... really good stuff you should check them out.

    Saint_Proverbius: Who is Mos Eilsy?

    Sorry dunno that one.

    Rojo: Which half-orc and halfling is that?

    I dun think any of them actually..

    Janus the Cruel: I don't get the George Bush thing.

    That was just a stupid joke about our stupid buddy President Bush.

    andyg: What is Dante's Divine Comedy?

    forgot

    TechDude: What's a TNG?

    hmmm i donno, whats the context?

    Etalis: What does NCR mean?

    NCR - New California Republic... I do hope those questions aren't serious... cmon you gotta play fallouts.

    If I miss anything out, just send me a note.

    k now some eggs shouldnt be there... that some caves look like fallut caves arent eggs.

    Inventory system like in Diablo isnt an easter egg... there were hundreds of games before and after D that featured similiar system.

    The statute of king and statue of vault dweller in ncr... how the hell are those 2 related?


    Mad old healer in FO2??? You mean Hakunin right?

    That Rizzette egg of mine might not be true too, someone said the cop's name was Rossette... not really an egg either cuz taht cop wasnt really much of a big role in the movie.

    Sure thing about the help. What's your e-mail address?

    Yes, I do accept fan arts. Sir Matarael keep sending me his works.

    Corrected the note and the spelling for Swyft. Thanks.

    Since we're reaching: Caladon was the name of a Kingdom in Dune, wasn't it?

    What's this question about Mos Eisly? Etalis said "Mos Eisly Spaceport" which is pretty clearly the name of a place - the is no "who is ..."

    If you want to know "Where is ..." it's mentioned in Star Wars: A New Hope - it's the place Luke first meets Han Solo

    Don't worry about my earlier posts Al... that was more of just chattering then talking deal... Well anyway my email is

    zlo999@hotmail.com

    If you gunna send something plz make it clear in subject cuz I get at minimum 20 letters a day which are of no interest to me. :smile:
    If any of u suckaz spam me I'll unleash my Wolpal Wabbit (TM) on j00r 114//4 455! (TM).

    Bout art - I mostly been drawing FO art and Im not really good, just learning how to draw, trying to get good.

    I guess I can help you by pointing out some bugs or listing some items mebbe though I've uninstalled Arcanum I can install it on my bigger HD and just extract the items. I used to do some HTML so I can do a little bit of that... though I forgot most of it.

    A correction of ending screen thing... it reads

    Intead of 'you sealed the faith' it should be 'you sealed the fate'... Cuz that version would make sense, unlike the other one.

    you dropped a space 'led them to a new and golden age' should be 'led them to a new and golden age'... neither of those sound right...and i didn get any of those endings though;p
