DAoC - Memories (by eSo Mortalis, Hibernia/Excalibur) made Feb 8th 2006. First video I've ever made, I also used this in my school project.
After many years of playing the game "Dark Age of Camelot", on my last few active months, I wanted to make a video capturing at least some of the special moments and special friends I encountered on my travels in the land of Hibernia. Through good times and bad, I had the privlidge to carry the emblem of the guild Terra Dominus, and I also was honoured to be one of the guildmasters over a few years.

Terra Dominus was started during the Beta testing of the game and was officially established on server Exclibur in the first few days of it going live on Feb 15th 2002. It was decided to place the guilds roots in the realm of Hibernia on the Excalibur server. Along with Celtic Fist and Clan Bearhawk, Terra Dominus was one of the first guilds to be formed. Back in the days, TD had a membership of over 120 players. We had our days of glory and fame, but unfortanately, also days of sadness and troubled times.

My character was eSo Mortalis, an elf Eldritch. He was the first character I ever made and I kept playing him as my main through all those years. On my prime I was the #2 eld of the realm's realm point-rank. Though i had over 10 level 50 characters throughout the servers, I never enjoyed any of them as much as I enjoyed playing "eSo". The game DAoC gave so much more for me, a lot more I ever thought a game could give. I had thousands of laughs with friends I met in game, some which I had the pleasure meeting in real life aswell. Good times.

But hey, even now, you can still find some players carrying the guilds emblem on some of the DAoC servers. Terra Dominus has also been established in other games, such as Dark and Light, Dragonblight, EQ2 and World of Warcraft. We're also looking forward to reunite in Warhammer Online.

Thank you for your time, I hope you enjoy the video.

For the power of Hibernia, for the glory of Terra Dominus:

eSo Mortalis,
level 50, master level 10, champion level 5 and realm rank 10.2 (before patch 1.82).

EDIT (18.9.2008): Recently, many of us have reunited in Warhammer Online - Age of Wreckoning. You might find some familiar names on both sides of the pond - Terra Dominus was formed on Karak-Azgal (EU server, Order) and Red Eye Mountains (US server, Destruction).

EDIT (22.12.2008): Out of the blue, Terra Dominus is once again formed in DaoC, on US Classic (Lamorak) cluster. Some familiar names popped back for one more run...

Ooh, so many memories.. I played in TD for a year or so before I joined Celtic Fist.. stoped playing after a while in ToA.. lvling all the artifacts, masterlvls etc ruined the game. Im downlading/installing daoc agin tho to try Uthgard. Back to the roots! :) /Orslaugth - Warden, Tinddra - Eld, Hib/Excalibur

[eSo19]

Hey Ors, good to hear from ya. There's still good action on Ywain (US), 4k players on primetime. I still log in there occasionally for few runs. You should give it a go!

[tugapowah]

Hi Eso, it is Obs TugaPowah FromTD. Come to the Free Shard called Uthgard :)

I play on Mid and Hib. Actually I am playing a Nightshade on Hibernia. U can find me under the name "Tug". Hope u will pay us a visit. Cheers mate!

[eSo19]

Hey Obs, nice to hear from you.

Currently having some fun in Hib/Ywain cluster with Tt, Chef and few others. Instead, you come pop by! Load free trial ftw.

I felt that once catacombs came out and the instanced dungeons started the community was hit pretty hard. No one could see fellow players leveling anymore. Also having a /level 20 system discouraged new players from starting the game. They had no one around when they first started the game...

I've never had so much fun playing a game.Even after the expansions came out. It really is a shame that no1 plays anymore. If they would cluster right and not have the same zones twice. I would play again.

[eSo19]

They have clustered. There's a server called Ywain, all have the same zones (excluding housing). According to herald there are 3.5k-4k players every night.

It's staggering how much better DAoC is to the crap that is WoW..

[Hotpackets]

Best game ever made.

[Milkmaidpaladin]

[shaydyknight]

[ChaosSpike17]

@Blomman78 Hopefully more people like you come back,It's still going pretty strong but allthese people saying they miss it .It's there,TOA does'nt mean jack anymore tbh Even when it did it beat wow.But yeah not many use artifacts anymore or whatever the new new frontiers is great and action packed

[drack610]

@Dropgwap

Wow... nice comeback

[Dropgwap]

@drack610 whatever ur a nerd

[drack610]

@Dropgwap

Pain? In every sport there is pain. And if you disagree you really need to get out more to get out of this narrow-minded thinking you have.

[Dropgwap]

@drack610 haha ultimate frisbee soccer swimming dude those r gay sports do football or mma or something where u gotta be able to take some pain 

[drack610]

@Dropgwap

Sorry, but you are an idiot. You must be since you go around calling random people that you don't even know "nerds". I play this game and I'm one of the most athletic people I know. I play soccer, ultimate frisbee, swim, and run almost every day. So am I a nerd? Yes. But you can be a nerd and have a life. So stop calling people names like a 7-year-old and grow up.

[Dropgwap]

this game is for nerds and so r all of the other mopgrs or whatever there called people who play those things need to get outside

[R3js]

Omg ESO! You forgot Rivana, Bard - Ran TD group for like 3years ^^

And MIKO!! the stupid druid, isnt in hall of fame! *rawr* :)
