Cyloc is one of the most notorious thieves on New Moon. He has (according to him, I was unable to validate this info) stolen more quest weapons from players than any other thief in the history of New Moon. Quite a feat. Following is a list of some of his quest weapon steals, and the stories behind them. I take no responsibility for these incidents, and have no opinion of the moral correctness of these acts. Any opinions expressed herein are not to be associated with aralissia.
NOTICE: As of Sun Jan 28 14:14:11 2001, Cyloc is retired.
Having said that, on to:
Cyloc and his Legendary Quest Weapon Steals
written by cyloc and totally not edited by aralissia
These are some of the quest weapons I've stolen throughout my time in the thiefhood. I've made quite a reputation, though I never suspected when I
first began that I'd become the greatest quest weapon thief of all time. I've
made a lot of progress and carved quite a niche for myself. My success
would have to be credited to my ability to pick apart my opponents and
predict and counter every move they might make. Sounds crazy but believe
me, in all my steals, I know that I am stealing from another human mind who
is possibly going to make all kinds of attempts to get it back without
paying for it. It is most definitely not just running up and stealing it as
most people believe. I often have to hunt down or trick the person into
letting their guard down. I take many precautions and never keep the weapon
or item in my pack for very long before I stash it somewhere. In most cases
the victim won't get anywhere near me and be forced to mail the money in a
pouch via the post office.
I have a very destructive mind and I could make the ultimate super villain
if I weren't trapped inside a petty thief. But I do a pretty good job as I
am. Being a thief is a lot of fun, and I had some great teaching from a
well known thief called ShadowHawk, and tremendous inspiration from Tricky
and ShadowHawk. However, Cyloc could not work if it weren't for the role
playing character I lucked into. (For those of you who don't know me that
well, it's all role playing) Cyloc is unpredictable, deviously clever,
charismatic and quick thinking. He makes a great escape artist and an
intelligent trap layer.
Now I'll reveal some of my many quest weapon steals. I could only get the
ones where I can put the weapon to the owner. I've stolen so many that I
can't possibly remember them all. So before I give the owners, weapons and
stories behind them, I'll show some of my statistics. The Known column
represents the weapons I know I've stolen and I know most of their owners.
The Unknown column represents the weapons I just carted from a shop to the
bin or I've found and in either case I have no idea who the owner is.

Tobin-Shozuku-Tachi-200 Plats
This was my very first quest weapon. Tobin was my first wife who turned out to be more than meets the eye if you know what I mean. She (He?) asked me to
marry her and me being a newbie, agreed. So I married her, probably the
dumbest thing I've ever done. When I found out through my sources who she
really was, I was out. I divorced her and spent several days spitting up
and hacking in the bathroom. Fortunately, I had just heard stories about
Tricky and ShadowHawk stealing quest weapons, collecting the ransom, and
burying it in the desert and telling the victim, "You have ten minutes to
collect your weapon before the shutdown." I said to myself, "Someday,
that's gonna be me." I've never buried the weapon in the desert but I've
done my fair share of horrid things to people. A quest weapon thief was
born, and the rest is history.

Sam-Mace of Ages-300 Plats-Stormsinger-150 Plats
This was a strange one. I stole Sam's Mace of Ages thinking I was moving
onto bigger things. But other than the usual whining, Sam made no attempt
to even try to make the money. All he did was moan about it and get Emily
to try to talk sense into me but only ended up trying to give me a morality
statement, "You're a mean person!" however, 300 plats appeared at the post
office with a note saying it was for Sam's Mace and it was from an anonymous
person. Well, it made no difference to me so I returned it. I got a lot of
respect from Sam until he managed to pass me in levels, not hard if you
aren't a thief, and then he just started bashing me over and over. So I
stole his Stormsinger. I ransomed it for the money, got paid and I thought
that was it. But nope, Sam felt he was better than me now that he had
passed me in levels. So while I was idling in ck, which I often do, he
brought in a warrior, a destroyer, and other ps people in an attempt to
absolve me, so I was stonegrabbed, blinded and pretty much all kinds of sect
and destroyer spells were cast on me. I was crippled, stolen from, and
almost left for dead because some idiot healer kept handing me a serpent
staff. But fortunately for me, ShadowHawk had just started the clan called
the NightHawks. Bringing Marius and I in first as the head of the inner
council under his leadership. Marius and I had been previously enemies
until Shad brought us together and we gained respect for each other. The
NightHawks came into being with a bang that rattled new moon. I managed to
squeeze in a tell to Marius telling him what was happening. In comes Marius
and bam, spits out 3 consecutive power word kills putting Sam, and his
fellow destroyer out for the count. All those spells and the cripple chose
the perfect time to wear off and I was able to grab Sam's Stormsinger,
Karmen's Mace of Ages and Boris's Mace of Ages. The healers who were
absolving me were Xenon, HolyMoly and Boris. Since HolyMoly and Xenon had
no quest weapons, I made up for it by stealing all their grails. Sam
himself made several more attempts at me, even at my life but was shot down
time and again by the pkers of the NightHawks. He soon retired.

Karmen-Mace of Ages twice-300 plats-none
This guy was one of the people that was crippling me that night at center
kelish, I had taken his mace before but I gave it back since I didn't have
any room for it to store. But I found room after and he has been crippling
me on sight, when he can see me, since then. But the new recruit, Balinor,
to the NightHawks made a human, spear of darkness, pin cushion out of this
guy and was warned over and over not to kill him again. I was there for
most of them and watched him die, or log off before he got killed. Balinor
killed this guy many times, but he logged off in combat so much that Balinor
got away with it. Now Karmen's second Mace of Ages, sometime later, was
stolen by ShadowHawk and sent to me, I still have it but more as a Trophy
than a means of ransom.

Nebb-Stormsinger-200 Plats
This guy was a member of the Midnight Blades, a group of newbies who thought
they were something but were actually some sauce. They may have actually
turned out one good character, Swifty. Well, this was the first anti-Cyloc
clan that hated me so much because I stole from all it's members numerous
times. Nebb was a happy-go-lucky thief who never saw a Street Lighter he
didn't rob. So I stole his stormsinger just because he was a midnight
blade. I put it away, it's now one of my trophies. But the fun didn't
start till he got one of his friends to summon me. He drank some agility
potions, but didn't steal anything. He did try to snatch a thunder ax from
me that I had just stolen from Ivan. It was burdening me, I didn't want it,
so I gave it to him, hindering his stealing skills, and blamed the steal to
Ivan on Nebb. I got away with it too. I also stole a bunch of plats from
Nebb, some green candles, and "AfterShock" the serrated dagger which I
currently use as a weapon.

Kiyre-Stormsinger-none
I snatched this from her just for practice. It also gave me practice in my
mage escaping skills as I had to run from summon-proof room to summon-proof
room as soon as she found out where I was from scrying. Then midway between
summon-proof rooms I got summoned to her mage room, where she proceeded to
cast spells on me. I managed to get out before she did, but it was on of
the biggest waste of opportunity's I've ever had as I was in her mage room.
I could still be kicking myself today for the waste if I hadn't had such a
big crush on her. I never acted on it, I'd be an idiot to do so. But
nonetheless I did and it prevented me from trying to steal anything.
Status-Returned to Owner
Kai-Shozuku-Tachi-200 Plats
This might claim the title for biggest waste of time steal because as a
result she cast stone grab on me a million times, literally. As one wore
off the next one came on. I don't think that stone grab should be stackable
like that. But a friendly neighborhood cre came and freed me up since the
hands didn't seem to show up.

Mitch-Stormsinger-none, Mace of Ages-none
Mitch had all of the worst ideas for the thieves guild. I'd been told over
and over again that she was a connection to the cres and that anything I
said to her could, and would be used against me. So I shut my mouth and
stole her Stormsinger. I had help from a mage who darkened the dragon head
and provided the summons while I got "juiced". It proved to be a waste of
material to get "juiced" as she wasn't even wielding it. The mage told me,
over and over again, to shut up and don't say a thing or you'll get nailed
for it. So I didn't even try to ransom it.
Status-Idling in storage, Mace was given back
Felip-Stormsinger-200 Plats, Mace of Ages-200 Plats
This guy was just begging to be stolen from. He was walking around wielding
his weapons and unwielding them, I couldn't help myself. I stole both the
Mace of Ages and Stormsinger at the same time. Since I wasn't able to
handle both, I planned with DigDug, I would give the Stormsinger back, Diggy
would steal it. Simple as that. I don't know what DigDug did with the
Stormsinger, but the Mace of Ages is still with me.
Status-Awaiting Payment of Ransom
Chron-Mace of Ages-100 Plats
This guy had been waving his mace in my face for a long time. It came with
great pleasure that he died at ck and someone looted his corpse and handed
me the Mace of Ages. I was also given a green candle or two and a peddlers
pack. This guy paid the ransom, the only non-pser ever to pay the ransom
for his weapon back. But he went nuts when he realized it was only for the
mace of ages. I tried to explain that since he was a newbie warrior I only
charged him 100 plats. For those of you who know me that is the lowest I
go, especially for a Mace of Ages. He would not listen. Oh well, not my
problem he didn't know.
Status-Successful Ransom
Hendel-Stormsinger-200 Plats
It took me a bunch of cripples and failed snatches to get this one.
Eventually I got it and put it away. Something happened though and I lost
it to a bug in the Blind Dragon. I was unable to collect the ransom for
this since I didn't have it. I felt bad too. Really, because this was his
last quest weapon, he'd lost all the rest (meaning I couldn't get to them)
and his other character, Balinor, became a member of the NightHawks.
Status-Destroyed
Darkest-Serrated Broadsword-500 Plats and one head on a stake
This was a big ransom, one of my biggest because I had a big price to pay
for it. I was stalking Darkest who was following Kveldulf around. As soon
as I stalked her though, I went net-dead. Of course they went into the
Chaos Tower and when I reconnected, I had nowhere to go and died.
Fortunately, a friendly healer was nearby and raised me and hogged me so I
could go in and collect my things. I got my stuff but found they had my
head. He put it on a stake, Kveldulf. It was decayed beyond recognition
but I still needed to get it back. Now Darkest was exposed to the horrible
role playing skills of Kveldulf and Muerte and didn't know any better. If
you were a musician, it would be like someone coming in scratching a fork on
a chalkboard and thinking they were good. So Darkest was too simple-minded
for me to convince her to give my head back. So I had to steal her Serrated
Broadsword. This time I didn't go net-dead and got away with it. She still
wouldn't get my head since Kveldulf wouldn't give it to her. Nor would he
pay, since he had paid Midhir's ransom the week earlier. So, I, not caring
how she got it just so long as she did, managed to convince her to appeal to
Kveldulf out of character, she was getting desperate. I may have
inadvertently set up a life long relationship here as Kveldulf would only
give it to her if he could meet her. They apparently hit it off.
Status-Successful Ransom
Archaon-Mace of Ages twice-200 Plats
There isn't really much to tell about this one. But he did have the nerve
to get another one. I believe you can get a new mace of ages anytime you
want but you have to wait a year or at least 8 months to get it charged.
Anyway, I stole that one too so he refreshed.
Status-First one destroyed second sold to some idiot with money
Slayer-Silver Forged Greatsword-none
I snatched this by accident because I didn't know that this guy's other
character was a friend of mine and in the clan I created. I gave it back
but when I found it one day I gave it away to Goodnight. She was one of
Kiyre's characters and if you don't know already (and hopefully she never
will) I had a big crush on Kiyre. She was having a big feud with Slayer.
Status-Given away
Hungrytroll-Shozuku-Tachi-none
I just found this lying on the ground. So I picked it up and planted it on
the first person I saw. I didn't even know it belonged to Hungrytroll till
I heard several people say so on chat. Another missed opportunity, but I
can't have em all.
Status-Given away
Neptune-Mace of Ages-300 Plats
This guy was a newbie in a high level characters body. He had friends
though. It was only my second quest steal ever and I made a lot of enemies.
Including Gaea as if I really cared. She just hates me for no reason if
not that. But we all know I'm not a crowd pleaser and I had to hang onto
this one for a long time while a I had a whole bunch of people furious at
me. When the smoke cleared some warrior paid me the ransom and I sent it
back. Wasn't long before he retired though.
Status-Successful Ransom
HannaH-Mace Of Ages-300 Plats
This was a guy masquerading as a girl. He had mouthed off to me about my
finger info and then ignored me when I tried to reply and explain myself.
Needless to say I did not like him. It was sometime later before I managed
to grab his Mace of Ages, which he was lowering to cripple me. But I got
away unscathed and one Mace of Ages richer. He didn't pay the ransom, but I
still have it today as one of my trophies.
Status-Idling in storage
MrDeathII-Serrated Broadsword-250 Plats
This was sent to me by ShadowHawk so we could split the ransom since he
doesn't dirty his hands ransoming quest weapons even though he stole it. He
was getting into character as the leader of the NightHawks and he needed to
be seen with class. I just wanted the money so I ransomed it. There was no
way this guy was paying so I got rid of it. I still had to make up the pay
to Shad but at least I got my hands on it for awhile.

Tarok-Shozuku-Tachi, Mace of Ages-don't remember

a waste.

Antilles-Rune Staff-none
I stumbled across this unfortunate pser while I was walking through the
warehouse district in Tsan. The guy was casting spells and fighting and was
wide open for stealing. So I grabbed his Rune Staff and fled. I don't
usually ransom these quest weapons. What I do is take them to ck and break
them over my knee. I like to think of this as my relief for having to
ransom all the other quest weapons. I don't think he knows to date I stole
it. If he's reading this, he does now.
Status-Destroyed
Socrates-Rune Staff-none
This was actually a pretty embarrassing moment for me. As soon as I stole
this guy's staff in the merchant district in Tsan, I broke it. and died. He
looted my corpse of my valuables. Luckily this dude was not the brightest
star in the sky and told me where to get raised but did not move from his
spot. I stole everything back and a few more of his stuff too. I lost a
life but all in all I gained enough from him to get it back and more. I
took a bunch from him and he knew it. All he did was repeatedly scry me
though.
Status-Destroyed
Marius-Rune Staff-none
Marius was a medium level mage at the time I robbed him. I got his Rune
Staff and broke it in front of his face. I like this because I consider
this an insult to mages but mostly because it looks cool. Everybody on at
the time hears the explosion these make when they are snapped. He decided
to get back at me by summoning me to a dark fissure or the desert. It was
only a minor annoyance but I really felt the impact when he prevented me
from getting to my corpse when he summoned me to the desert and I had
nothing on. The desert is really overrated for punishing people because if
you are fast you can dodge all the auto attacking monsters and get to the
portal. However, there was a crash. I didn't make it in time and lost my
whole corpse. But this proved to be a plus as Marius wasn't finished yet
and got Theory and BlackFlag into a room to get to me. He summoned me and
cast all his spells like disjunction while Blackflag crippled and blocked
the exit and Theory cast fumble and his Draconian Spells. I had the laugh
though when all they found on my were two empty component pouches, a
jewelled dagger, a magnificent golden sword, which was now totally worthless
since it was changed, leather breeches and a set of shadow boots. I didn't
even have a copper in my purse. So eventually they got bored when they
realized I was idling.
Status-Destroyed
Kairn-Rune Staff-none
This was a very funny story at the time. Kairn was some guy who'd gone
guildless for a long time and built up his levels by teaching from other
players. He had grown fond of Zarah, some thief I had help join the thieves
guild when she was a newbie. Eventually he joined the Academy. Not long
before he prospered into an okay mage. Of course, me being the asshole I
am, stole his rune staff for no reason. I didn't break it and I was
disguised but he figured it was me. He began to summon me to the same Dark
Fissure that Marius did, but he did it twice as much. So I took his staff
and broke it right in front of his face which must have hurt him so bad
because he was pretty clear in screaming at me he wanted his Staff back. He
continued to summon me to that place. It was getting kind of ridiculous
until my good buddy Aero told me he was dead in the lich's cave. I figured
I could get in a good rib shot at this guy so I went in and looted his
corpse and took his head. Right under his nose while he watched helplessly.
He didn't bother me from then until his retirement a week later.
Status-Destroyed
Milenko-Rune Staff-none
I don't remember much about this guy except he kept summoning me to the dark
sect. I don't know why, since I clearly knew my way around the place. But I
guess he figured summoning me anywhere was good. All because I broke his
staff.
Status-Destroyed
Boris-Mace of Ages-300 Plats
This is one of the healers trying to absolve me at that night with Sam at
ck. This was also some guy who didn't know about the ps rule because he
kept giving me a serpent staff. He stopped well short of me dying but
probably because it was taking a long time. I stole his Mace of Ages and he
wasn't going to pay so I destroyed it.
Status-Destroyed
Brokk-Rune Staff-100 Plats
This was a guy I found in Leviatha. I took his Rune Staff and made the
ransom 100 plats. During a killing with NightFall of the unlucky Tobin who
had gone pk I stumbled upon his post in the Sect Tower. It said that all
mages should ignore me when I ask for summons or favors because I took his
rune staff. Needless to say, I snapped it in half, but it was kind of
amusing that this guy would post something like that. I boggled the minds
of him and his sect friends by my replying. I usually walk everywhere
anyway.
Status-Destroyed
Shatai-Stormsinger-200 Plats, Shozuku-Tachi-none
This guy was a pretty funny story which I believe is posted on the Helio Inn
board. I robbed his Stormsinger, ransomed it, he paid. No big whoop there.
Also, Malius and NightFall were paralyzing him so I could steal off him
some more when I got his Shozuku-Tachi. But the funny story is when
NightFall and I were looking for something to do. After a couple robberies,
a couple burglaries and a couple pk's, NightFall and I went back to his
wardrobe in his mage room to store our collections. After storing
everything I walked out to discover that Shatai had recently been inside his
room and the door was open. Of course, I couldn't go in it. But that
doesn't mean I don't try. NightFall came out too and he said he was pretty
tired. He was willing though. I gave him two options. We could summon him
here and wait to see what his reaction was, if he would flee or go into his
room. He said it wouldn't work. So I offered that we trick him with words.
NightFall was feeling pretty skeptical about the whole thing. He went
net-dead and he didn't reconnect. I was left on my own. But I had the help
of a mage named Hellion who scryed and told me where he was. Well, my
criminal mind went to work immediately. So I said on chat, "I hope this
'shataidoor' isn't going to miss the stuff I'm taking from his mage room."
Well, it worked. He came went inside his room. But I missed him. I missed
him. I had to think quick. "I put most of the stuff back." I was sure this
opportunity had passed me by and I would be kicking myself again. But luck
was with me as it usually is and Shatai wanted to know, "I would like to
know how you got into my mage room since there is a shocking wall in the way
to the hallway and into the room." I said, "Simple, I'll show you." So he
ports in and this time I'm quick enough. I stalk him. I begin to open my
containers, look in them and close them. "Well, I have this key, it's
around here somewhere." and when I went through all my stuff I said, "Damn,
I must have left it in there." He walks inside with me right on his tail.
"And Bingo, you fell for it" I then put my burglarizing skills to work and
looted his room. He stood there and watched, occasionally trying to close
his wardrobe to stop me, but otherwise not doing much. I was then summoned
out of there and gave most of my findings to Hellion including a Staff of
Kilfir, and my other takings to other mages. I didn't get much out of it,
but it was still pretty funny.

Mina-Mace of Ages-none
I'd stolen this once before, but I gave it back because I didn't feel like
ransoming it. But much much later I did so I stole it again. The funny
thing is, she didn't even seem to notice. I snatched it, she clearly saw
me, she wasn't idling. Beats me, but she didn't ask for or say anything.
Or seem to notice. So I just keep it as a trophy now.

Aalos-Stormsinger twice-300 Plats
This is another guy that Balinor had killed repeatedly but had logged off
during combat many times. I promised Balinor I would get him so I found him
one day on Diamond Street. I was disguised but I must have blown my cover
some how. He lowered his Stormsinger named Absinthe or something like that
and crippled my skull. The moron crippled my skull and not my fingers. But
that was okay because a split second after that I got his stormsinger, using
every last drop of gp but still managing to get it on the first try. He
didn't respond to any of my tells or mails demanding ransom. So I got rid
of it. However I encountered him awhile after that, a long while, running
around just outside the forest. I missed several chances at his sword and
he tried to cripple me several times but finding only air. We played cat
and mouse for awhile alternating roles until we ran smack into each other,
unable to run or hide he attempted a cripple, missed and I grabbed his
Stormsinger with the name Captain Morgan (Hey, I just steal them) He also
refused to pay but this time told me so so I didn't have to wonder.

It would be un-Cyloc like to give it back. However I have not yet broken

I couldn't give it back. Fortunately she got a new one. So I agreed not
to steal that one from her. The one I had I put in the rubbish bin.

him down (note that when I track someone I do NOT use mages but my own 5
senses) in the forest. He noticed me attempt to snatch it but failed as he
was wielding it. When they are wielding it, instead of juicing myself I
just fail the snatch on purpose to get them to lower it to try and cripple
me. I rarely use this method, only with warriors who have cripple because
it becomes obvious that's my intention.

we could use Kranjor as an ally rather than make him an enemy. He's the

This was pretty funny. I don't know what Nobu was smokin but he came right
up to me and gave me his rune staff and asked how much the ransom was. I
thought he was just trying to get rid of 100 plats since agreed to it. Un
willing to let this guy confuse me, I said, "Oh you didn't know? I don't

Malius-Shozuku-Tachi-100 Plats
I a lot of people have thought that I've bitten off more than I can chew
with this steal. Most people I've talked to say, "I'm sorry" or "Ouch" but
directed at me like everything bad has happened to me. I realize this is
one bad ass pker who kills his friends for the hell of it. I may honestly
say it's a pleasure to work with such a great role player (at least I hope
that's what he's doing) But don't count Cyloc out just yet. I've never
pissed someone off enough that they go on a killing rampage. This is going
to be a big war involving a lot of people besides Malius and the NightHawks.
A lot of Malius wannabes are going to rise up and try killing too. By
stealing from Malius I have single-handedly sparked great conflict that will
result in a lot of innocent lives lost and feelings hurt. As much as I'd
hate to have those lives on my hands, it's too late now. Malius has started
killing people already. The only ones that aren't shaking their heads in
pity at me are most of the NightHawks and my wife, Aralissia. Despite
Malius threatening to kill all the NightHawks most have remained faithful
and even scoff at suggestions they take the name out of their suffix.
ShadowHawk has built a tremendous power in the game and the people in it are
proud to be a part of it. This might have actually been a good thing. It
has brought the NightHawks closer together and filtered out the people who
run at the first obstacle. People have died and many more will lose their
lives, it will affect everyone and that means you, but it's through the hard
times that most will learn who their true friends are.
Status-Destroyed
In Conclusion:
These are some of my accomplishments as a thief on new moon. I've made quite an impact and established myself very firmly. Love me or hate me, you
have to admit, what I've done is pretty impressive. For those of you who
haven't had the experience of feeling my influence, you will eventually.
For those of you who are mentioned above, there is no shame in getting
robbed by Cyloc. Just remember, it's nothing personal.
Cyloc-too hot to handle too cold to hold
