Ulgrim Rumors
Free Rumors:
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "How do you like my new hair cut? Pretty stylish huh?"
- Ulgrim squints at you.
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Well I don't care what you think, you're way too ugly to talk about my looks."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I went up to visit Aun Javhalrea the other day and he just stood there and ignored me. I couldn't believe he was so rude, no more stout for him."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm seeing a lot fewer corpses around these days. It is a shame really, I used to make my drinking money by robbing the corpses of their pyreals. Now I have to rely on people walking by to randomly decide to give me stout. Strangely enough that seems to happen a lot."
Stout Rumors:
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It seems the Shadow Generals are collecting ley line data around Tou-Tou. I don't know about you but everytime I've heard of something messing with the ley lines, terrible things have followed."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I went up to Asheron's Island and visited Deewain. While I was there I said hey to my old pal Asheron too. I challenged him to a duel but as usual he turned it down because he knows I can beat him with 4 stouts in me and one hand tied behind my back."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I must have been pretty drunk the last time I went down into the Frozen Cave up north. When I took the path I thought I had before I ran into a stone wall. Oh well, I will just have to get some other ice for my drinks instead of chipping pieces of off Ordas, although that is the best ice around."
