Cristobal Colon Cristobal Colon (#1492)
Level 23
"Explorer"

Cristobal Colon (#1492) is probably the first explorer to hit the shores of Loathing since the days of yore. He got a cold reception, and gave out blankets in an attempt to palacate the inhabitants and ensure harmony. His plan went askew when people started getting various disease.

Cristobal Colon is the Spanish interpretation of the name Christopher Columbus. His given name, in his native Italian, was Cristoforo Colombo. He even has three of the Big Boat Trophy, those being the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria. He is also the only player to be an "Explorer" class. Further his account creation date is his birthday, August 26, 1451, with more than 7,500,000 turns played, as if the account had been playing 40 turns a day since the 1400s.

His player number, #1492 is the year in which Columbus 'discovered' America.

Hail there, fellow Adventurer!

I am a traveller from Distant Lands, and landed on the shores of your
Kingdom just yesterday. Sadly, I've met with a cold reception thus far.
Your Kingdom seems to be overrun with brutes!

I offer you this gift as a sign of my goodwill and desire to coexist
peacefully with you and your kin. I hope that it will help warm you in the
cold Loathing nights.

Fare thee well!
