MabiPro: The Authentic Old-School Mabinogi Experience

Hello there! I'm Neonriser, and you might remember me from the original Mabinogi as (I kid you not) the original Neonriser himself. That's right... I was really into this game ever since I was in high school. I made a lot of great memories of venturing through dungeons with party members, enjoying the story, and trying out various kinds of weapons. But little did I knew that the Mabinogi I knew would not last long.

I came back several years later to make some progress on the Alchemist story when I started to notice that something strang has been going on. Duncan, who seemed to think I was someone else for some reason, assumed that I fought a fallen hero, but I had no idea what kind of "fallen hero" was referring to. I even got an invitation where I was chosen to be a leader of a circle of knights. As someone who saved the world once or perhaps even twice, I could understand why the invitation was directed towards me. But then I realized that there was no story completion requirement to get the invitation, they sent it to everyone, even the people starting out!

As I made some progress in the Alchemist story, I became overwhelmed with the increase of various features, such as the Homestead and the Daily Quests. I just wanted to enjoy the story, gosh darn it! This drove me to quit the game once and for all, and I never bothered to catch up on the story ever again. But hey, at least they got whip blades now.

By that time the handle "Neonriser" has already become a prominent go-to online handle. When I made my personal website, I made it clear it originated from my early Mabinogi days. Long story short, this would lead to a Discord discussion about the Mabinogi game itself with some who used to play the game as well. After I made up my mind, I decided to go to this website and the rest is history.
