Wow, snagged some new people!

Latest news from my front: Ran into my first tower battle last night. I was just transiting through the whompahs at 2 Holes when I noticed a largish group of Omnis near by. They were talking about team strategy and it was clear that they were planning to attack a Clan tower nearby. So I played the neutral observer and tagged along. One even invited me into one of their teams (thought I was Omni maybe?) but I declined.

It was a small tower patch, just one control tower and one assist tower, and it didn't take long for Clan to rush to defend. I was attacked by an Omni who took me down to half health. I retreated without counterattacking and sent a tell saying that I was a neutral observer. She apologized.

Clan won pretty handily. I notice that PvP in AO is kind of funny because there are level limits, so sometimes, the Omnis would be attacking the towers with impunity while high level Clanners just watched because they could not attack the Omnis due to level limits. When this happened, they just logged out and logged in again with appropriate level twinks to engage.

I've also been talking to Shattered Dreams, a neutral organization focused on role-playing, about joining up. We'll see how that goes.

P.S. I notice that Agentzero's Saraea went Omni. Interesting...
