The full story of Murial.
It appears she is descending upon us in 8.1, so I might as well tell the story based upon the TRUE bits and pieces collected over time. There once was a GM for Global Maplestory named Murial. She was rumored to be one of the kindest of Nexon's staff. The reason for this, is because she held the record for most public appearances. She would help new players fiind their way (particularly Warriors, since it was the most flexible class at the time). Besides helping new players out, she would always hang around in Perion during her free time. She liked to stay there, because she was the one who designed that map. One day, the rest of the Nexon staff wanted to create a monument for her friendliness. So, the coders created an NPC of her that would be in Perion to give random tips to players below level 30. This NPC coding, however, was bugged. It initially was supposed to act as an AI "Player" with stats, and all. The stats, however, would be Null, making the NPC "Player" invulnerable to any mob/player attacks. This Nr.PC was lacking in a name. They didn't want players to search for her through her IGN of [GM]_Light (which isn't really possible, due to the brackets and underscore). One day, however, she disappeared. None of the staff members have heard any news of her absence that day, nor did they bother finding out. The next day, she was still absent. A higher staff member called her household to ask of her wellness, but there was no response. Days turned to weeks, weeks into a month, with still no sign of her. Some thought she was gravely ill, others thought she informally quit. One of her friends called her phone, and heard news that she had died one month ago due to a household accident. Knowing this, the Nexon coders removed the Murial NPC from the game. What they didn't know, is that the bugged part of the NPC was never fixed. Also, they only removed the NPC from Channel 1. The bug in the NPC made it sometimes invisible. Only when a large amount of item entities are in the map, will it reappear. The bug, however, isn't in the WZ anymore, causing players to disconnect a few seconds after witnessing the NPC. This was all during version V.55-V.60. After V.75 was released, however, the coders were successfully able to remove the bug, but didn't remove the NPC. When the Big Bang update came out, however, Perion was re-created. The spot where the NPC stood on was nonexistent. Now, some players would be able to see this NPC based upon where they stood in the map.
When I saw her, I was in Arcania channel 4 on my Mechanic. I saw it, and clicked on it. It had Null stats, a level with the Infinite symbol on it, and no IGN. Shortly after, I disconnected randomly. I tried searching for it again after level 30, and it wasn't there. Coincidence?
Anywho, that is the FULL story of Murial, as pieced together by the true parts told by many-a-player (plus my research).
On another note, I went into an old old V.55 Character.WZ file, and found her weapon's images. It is a slightly recolored version of the Polearm named "Eclipse". If you want the images, PM me.

Re: The full story of Murial.
Not sure what the ID of it is (since I recently downloaded a newer version of HaRepacker that can't read V.55 files anymore). I think that's why there's so many IDs for "Eclipse". I'm not sure if they removed it, but here is a bit of what I found.[Øฬภєг]•๖ۣۜΛŁρђą wrote:I would like to see the img AND the ID.
I'll PM you all of the images.
