Star Stable Jon Jarl
Marine Farinha
I wasn't around when players searched for the ghosts of his victims - but he used to kill people just for standing in his path, and now he seemingly doesn't anymore? Do you know what caused him to change his mind like that (if I even got all of that correctly)?
The legend of Galloper Thompson is well known all over Jorvik and has been terrifying kids and adults alike every Halloween for many, many years. Different versions of who - or what - Galloper Thompson is, are flying around all over the place at this time of year, and nobody really knows the truth.
These ruins were a source of fascination for me. Great columns and arcs in a style we had never seen, long since overgrown with vegetation. What happened to those previous settlers? Would it happen to us too?
Sighting Galloper Thompson was a sign of terrible things to come. My ill-fated encounter happened just before a cave in at the Damascus Mine. I never made it out. Even now I can still hear his cursed laughter. In that mine you will find my Soul Shard.
In the end, the victory for Great Jarl was bought at a steep price, with only one of his men still standing when the battle was over. Why did that man survive when so many others did not? Cursed be his name forever!
The tree on the peninsula promised me that it would help me develop my gift as long as I gave my flesh as a servant. As a young fool, I accepted. My body was twisted, my skin turned to bark and even my Soul Shard was left with the tree. But for a brief moment, I understood everything.
Halloween 2020 was taken over by Ydris as he locked Galloper in a tower in the keep. As more and more ghosts filled the keep, they desperately begged us to help them as they were forced to dance against their will. Ydris too, decided that it was too much and that we should release Galloper from the tower to bring balance back to this unique space swirling in time. But when Ydris undid his magic, there was still a barrier keeping Galloper in, trapped and curled into a ball floating in the air. To undo the spells keeping him in that state we had to go through the regrets that he carried with him, collecting an item that represents that time.
The history books say that a man, Gunnar Thrymson, was a valued and loyal soldier to Jon Jarl, nearly 900 years ago. An odd man with a fitting name. Gunnar was described as possessing a dark and brooding nature, but valiant and loyal in all things to Jon Jarl.
The mere presence of the horse distressed and alarmed the other animals, setting them into a panicked and frightful state.
Galloper and the Shire became inseparable, their unique bond a source of wonder and gossip.
Galloper Thompson earned a position beside Jon Jarl as his personal bodyguard and advisor. He performed great tasks for Jon Jarl, even defending him against a dangerous uprising of rebellious lords.
The Jarl ordered Galloper be held responsible for his alleged crimes.
Galloper was captured and bound. Shackled and shamed, he was brought before his king. Jon Jarl stood as lord and judge, passing sentence upon his faithful servant.
Linda feels herself being pulled to Paddock Island. When we arrive, Galloper is already there, gazing at the lonesome island with the broken bridge. We pick up memory shards that were scattered on the ground for Linda to decipher.
There is confusion! The mob churns and surges. A fire has broken out! Was a lantern thrown into the stable? Was a torch dropped? I cannot see clearly. The smoke and flames blind my view. The stables are ablaze! The horse is trapped!
Numbly, he kneels before the block. His lips are moving silently. What is he saying? The masked executioner raises his axe. Oh, I cannot look! The axe drops. His sad, green eyes have a slightly startled look, almost as if they see me.
It is the Shire! Its coat is even darker, so much that it seems to devour the very light. Its mane is so fiery and bright! A blinding apparition of shadow and flame! It strikes terror into the guards and townsfolk.
Poking around the hideout, peering our head over a box, in the corner we see a green memory fragment. As we grab it, we are given the vision of a young man, Gunnar, on a horse. The horse rears and throws Gunnar off, sending him flying and landing harshly on the ground.
We have the decision to help hide Broderick by shutting the door in hopes that Galloper will pass us by, we could do nothing and see what lays ahead, or we can make noise to ensure that Galloper finds us:
We know Jorvegians tell the tale of Galloper Thompson to warn and scare the kids to keep safe when it gets dark, least Galloper Thompson upon his fiery mare finds you and collects your soul for his own!
You can level up by doing quests. When you quest you get something called Experience Points, or XP as it is widely known. You can also level up your horse so that it can be faster. The higher the level you are the faster your horse is even when its level one!
Your horse gets faster by leveling it up. You can level it up by doing daily races. Those are the races that are blue on your map. If a person such as Josh, Tan, or Loretta had a blue exclamation mark over their head that means that they have a daily race for you to do.
There, (insert character name). Now it is all set. All the fences are in place, so now we just need to ride the course from the start to finish. Only ponies are allowed in this race, but that is pretty clear, right?
We are really excited to see how it goes. I hope it is fun, we have been planning this for months now. You need to ride a pony to be able to ride in the competition, but I am sure you understand that by now, right?
When I read these letters from my beloved daughter my heart melts. Oh, how foolish and proud I have been, and it has cost my grandson. I have these deeds indeed and Thomas Moorland shall have them; that scumbag Mr. Kembell is a disgrace to this island. Here is the key to my deposit box in Fort Pinta- inside it you will find the deed. Collect it and return the key to me before you say anything to Thomas Moorland. From now on, you can always pass my land freely.
Welcome to the Fort Pinta Pet and Bag Store. Why do we sell both pets and bags? Everyone knows, you need to have a saddlebag for your pet to ride in when you are out riding. How else would your little pet be able to keep up otherwise?
You can run faster by pressing the W key, the up arrow, or scroll on your middle mouse key multiple times to go faster. You can back your horse up by pressing the S key, the down arrow, or by scrolling down on your middle mouse key (if you have one). If you need to stop immediately, you can press the X key on your keyboard. If you decide to become a Star Rider (a VIP member) you can finish a special quest that allows you to jump. You can jump with the space bar or you can press the 0 key on your keyboard or number pad (if you have one).
A Star Rider is a paid VIP member (widely known as a member on most games). You can buy a Star Rider membership by going to: or you can type in your browser and go to Star Rider on the top of the page. There are five types of Star Riders.

The girl on her horse reached the desolate island and put the light down in the center of it. Immediately, life started spreading everywhere and the once cold and dark place transformed into an island of warmth and light.
Under the character sheet, there is a quest log button. The quest log button is what shows you what quests you are currently working on, and if you are in the middle of a quest and log off, you will have to restart the quests that you were working on. You can click on several different tabs that can show you your ongoing quests, available, quests, daily quests, chores, races, etc.
Under the help button, there is a menu button, which is a cell phone. You can call for a pickup, which takes you back to your home stable, the stable that you can keep all of your horses in, you can quit the game, look at the credits, etc.

"Astrid, I thought your people were supposed to be reliable. I've performed the Black Sacrament, I've paid the proper penance and I've waited patiently for results. If you can't handle a simple assassination, I'll find someone who can. I want this contract handled, and I want it handled immediately! Maven Black-Briar"
Okay so, I was wandering in Riften right after starting the quest Scoundrel's Folly when I ran into Maven. I started talking to her, and noticed a speech option I've never seen before. It was basically about how she doesn't trust the guild and thinks that the whole Goldenglow Estate thing is a trick to make her lose money and such. After that, she asks me to do her a favor, and to bring her the Estate's Bill of Sale, in exchange for a big compensation, to me and to the Guild. I've searched as hard as I could, I pickpocketed Brynjolf and Mercer, went back to Goldenglow, but nothing; the Bill obviously "disappeared" from the game once the quest complete. So I'm guessing this is from an incomplete quest, that might have been the way to get her to help you during Diplomatic Immunity. Since I've couldn't find anything around here, I guess I'm the first to discover this? Elakyn 19:05, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
