Grog is unknown
Talking Grog, His Story.

Long ago there came to Sosaria a man named Grog. He found the land to be fine and settled in a shard called Great Lakes. He soon had a son and as Grog is a perfectly fine name, he named his son Grog. When he had a second son he knew that Grog was still a fine name so that son also was named Grog. And so it went...

Today there are over 60 Brothers_Grog in the Grog Guild representing every known shard of the shattered Gem. The main quarters of the Grog guild is in the very fine shard of Catskills. There are also Cousins_Grog in every shard and they are Grog guilded as is a lone Second Cousin_Grog in the Catskills shard. There is a Sister named Cayenne and on the Cousin side there is a lone female with the name of Ruby (RL wife's name). It is rumored that Ruby is an elf.

The Brothers had built a home in Great Lakes but when a better home became available in Catskills (gift from friends) they gladly gave away their cabin and Crafter Grog moved the Grog treasures to Catskills to join that branch of the family. Recently the Cousins came along and they built a small building in Catskills as well. Very recently along came a Second Cousin who also built a structure.

The three buildings of Grog now comprise the Grog Village. If one starts at the pyramid in the Malas desert and travels east they will soon come upon the Grog home. The rest of the Village is the next two buildings directly to the North East.

The lower building is the living quarters for the Grogs. The middle building is the Grog Warehouse. And the upper building is the brand new Grog Guildhouse. All the building are open to friends and strangers alike. There may be found a small number of vendors that sell off quite cheaply whatever is brought home. As an example all treasure maps are sold at the flat rate of 100 gold pieces.

The Grog Guildhouse is rapidly becoming the showplace of the family. All locked down containers are available for all to look through. If one looks about the Guildhouse carefully there are a few small surprises to amuse and befuddle most visitors. The Guildhouse is a work in progress and will continue to grow.


You don't have to be insane to work here, but it helps.

"Grog" Passed Away Last Night (June 8th, 8:45pm)

I apologize if I'm posting this in the wrong forum.

This isn't "Grog" but rather his son, Hans Adolph.

Last night, June 8th, Leonard "Grog" Adolph passed away at 8:45pm due to heart complications. He is survived by his wife, Ruby and myself. Preceded in death by his youngest son, Isaac.

My dad used to talk about Ultima Online all the time for years and it was my understanding that his Brothers Grog characters became quite well known in the game. He made a lot of friends here and I just felt that you folks should know why he won't be playing anymore.

Re: "Grog" Passed Away Last Night

We had only recently had the pleasure of welcoming ' Grog ' ,to the forums.

He told us some tales of his adventures,and I was soon due to meet up with him in the game,as I knew another Grog some years back,which we spoke of.

I am sure others will join me in saying ,it was an honor to meet a more mature player of the game,and I am glad he was able to share with us the joys the game was able to bring him..

My personal regards to you,your mum and your family,and thankyou for coming to let us know this very sad news.

Re: "Grog" Passed Away Last Night

Dear gods.

Thank you for communicating this to us. I played UO with your father more than once, he helped my main character acquire a Swamp Dragon recently.

He was a very kind individual, and very helpful and generous to new players in game.

He had "Grog" guilds on shards all over the world, but spent time mostly on Catskills in recent days.

My deepest condolences to you and your family. I hope your father passed away quietly and without pain, and if there is an afterlife, I hope that he is in a happy place.

Kindest Regards,

Robert Evans
