Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I hear old Jaleh got killed. Aaminah really looks as if she's broken up over it. I think we should elect a new leader for Ayan Baqur."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Now let's see... who would make a good leader?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "No, I couldn't!"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Could I?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'll do it! I will shoulder the heavy burden of leadership."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I asked them to go cliff diving with me tomorrow. Hehe."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I told them it was a traditional human activity."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'll just make sure they jump first."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's really good to be back in Ayan Baqur. It hasn't changed all that much. The big difference is I see more crazy fools running around killing each other than I used to. How can they stand all the Vitae?"
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Good to be back in AB."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've been working on some Olthoi Bait in case they decide to come back. Through long and arduous testing I've discovered that they can't resist stuffed mushrooms. Just walk through a dungeon dropping those things in a line and you can ambush a whole swarm while they're gobbling them up."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I thought Mosswarts smelled bad, but Burun smell like Tremendous Monouga feet. At least you know when they're close."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Wish I could take my sword with me. I'd at the very least like to have it on my wall at home."
[p]

[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "There aren't a lot of stimulating people to talk to around here."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I don't mean you of course, you're fascinating."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Some monsters get stronger, some monsters get weaker. Just remember what ol' Ulgrim says when the health is down, fire is raining from the sky and monsters are clawing at his throat."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Strong...weak. I'm the one with the wand."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I don't trust that Virindi, Claude, he's hiding something from the rest of us."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Late at night I hear noises and see blue flickering lights coming from his tent."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "What's he doing in there?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "What the heck is he doing in there?"
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's really good to be back in Ayan Baqur. It hasn't changed all that much. The big difference is I see more crazy fools running around killing each other than I used to. How can they stand all the Vitae?"
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I went to visit the fortune shrine today. Want to hear my fortune?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You will fall into a very deep hole and your broken body will slowly be devoured by the foul things that reside in the lightless places."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That didn't sound so good."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "My lucky numbers are 6,6,6."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Have you noticed how dazed the people at fishing holes look?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "They're Fishing Zombies! Fishing Zombies I tells you!"
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Epileptic spongemonkies? I never said that!"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I asked him what a gimp was and he said "You, Gimpy! What kindof a gimp mage has a 40 Focus?""

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So I portaled him to that new valley everyone is talking about to find out what kind of mage he is."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Maybe I should consider getting some of those new attribute transfer gems."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I hear if you lick a Burun you can see all sorts of cool stuff."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "People were surprised that I changed my portal recall spell. Hey, I warned people it would change. It's my spell and I go where I like. Plus, I don't really trust Lifestone Recall anymore..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "If you want to get to my island then talk to the Drunken Madman, he knows the way."
[p]

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That's my new dance!"
[p]

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That wasn't the worst part of the dream though. There were these horrible wormy things floating around and I was terrified they would see me."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Now I have the power of ten Uglrims!"

[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "The grass is always greener on the other side. At least at my house it was. It's not my fault Dad never understood the basics of preventative lawn care!"
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Easy guys, I drink my stout just like the rest of you - one sip at a time. Except, once my mug's empty, I make gold gromnies."
[p]
Ulgrim stumbles and mutters something unintelligible, "Y syh uhla tnaysat ra fyc y piddanvmo. Frah ra yfuga, ra hu muhkan ghaf ev ra fyc y piddanvmo tnaysehk ra fyc y syh, un y syh fru ryt tnaysat ra fyc y piddanvmo."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I bet you didn't know that some magical components are quite deadly if ingested."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I sure didn't."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Dance for me Drudge Boy!"
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So you've heard about Leandra's wonderful new chorizite formula? Yeah, made that same formula years ago, except I used orichalcum. My formula made normal beer mugs larger on the inside than on the outside. I only have the one sample left here. It holds about 30 normal mugs of stout."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's good that she's following in my footsteps though, it shows she's very wise."
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hey, kid."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Catch."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant gives you Clean, Dry Towel.
[p]
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Fill me up a Beer Stein and I'll tell you the story of how I tied to a broken lifestone."
[p]
You give Ulgrim the Unpleasant Filled Beer Stein.

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Not bad, nice beer stein too. It reminds me of that time I was in Dryreach."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I had decided to go on a trip. I was tired of all the the sun and relaxation, you know how it is. Anyway, I traveled around for awhile visiting pubs and inns and ended up in Dryreach, where I was astonished to find a wonderful house brew made by my friend Mordomor."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I decided to spend awhile getting to know the drink better so I went to find the old lifestone NW of town. Yeah, I know there's a new lifestone there, but I didn't know that then. The old lifestone looked broken, but by this time I was heavily in my cups and unconcerned with trivial things."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Now, I'm going to give you a very important bit of information here. Never ever, under ANY circumstances, bind to a lifestone when your drunk. And if you have an old faulty wand. And if it looks like the lifestone's broken... especially if it looks like the lifestone is broken. I remember wondering why the lifestone was sparking like that, then why my wand was sparking like that. Then my wand caught fire, shot from my hand and exploded... then things got weird."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Everything after that is fuzzy, but I remember dying repeatedly. Not something I recommend, but what with all the explosions and electric shocks it seemed like the thing to do. My life flashed before my eyes, at least the part that involved being repeatedly killed and revived by a demented lifestone."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "When I came to I found that the bodies I had left during my reincarnations hadn't died. In fact there were nine copies of myself standing around arguing with each other. I could have sworn that I died more than nine times, but like I said before I was pretty vitae'd up."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've heard of similar lifestone malfunctions before. Usually the duplicate is just a creepy standing corpse of sorts that hasn't forgotten how to breathe. In most cases unbinding from your lifestone will return that corpses lifeforce or vitae back to its owner."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "But to unbind from the lifestone I needed to use the same casting device that I tied to it with. By the time I found one of my wand's splinters in the pocket of my robe I realized the duplicates of me had run off."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It turned out that each of my copies had a splinter from the wand. I was too weak to get them back myself, so I enlisted the help of adventurers. These good people collected all the splinters of my wand and brought them back to me."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I heard many stories about my duplicates and I actually grew kind of fond of some of them. It was with a heavy heart that I recrafted my wand and unbound from the lifestone. I haven't heard of them since then. I guess they're all gone..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'll always remember the time we spent together that spring."
