Skins: Three: Forgotten One and 1.29h compliant team colors

Time: About a week or so. The blue team guy's face has been sitting on my HDD for like a year now. Skinned that for the Q3W Halloween skinning contest and scrapped it in favor of another. Liked it though, so I used it here.

Tools: PS6, Q3ASE and Botstudio

How to use: Just extract it at C:\ ...I've set it up where it'll dump the .pk3 directly into /baseq3 if done in this fashion. 


Credits: id software and the folks at Polycount and Q3W who are always good about giving me feedback as usual.

Legal Bits: This skin cannot be distributed by any other means than electronic, 
without my express written permission and WITH THS README INCLUDED. Furthermore, this skin was painted from the wiremeshes, so it's 100% my work. That means don't steal it and do not paint over it for any purpose whatsoever (including clan skins). Quake III: Arena, and Quake III: Team Arena are  of id software, Inc.

The Tale of the Forgotten One: A Deep Space Ghost Story Continued

The urban legend of the Tyrincidia and her ghost crew persist, even now. The tales of the wrecked UCC capitol ship become more prevailent, though still no evidence has come up (or it has been hidden) to sustain these tales. Closer she comes to Earth to claim her final port, even without her captain, she will not stop, less she is destroyed or makes that last stop to the beyond. 

The one now only known as Ghoul was not the only one taken from the supernatural crew of the Tyrincidia. Another of the United Corporate Confederation's deep space marines so too followed his captain to the disquieting Hell that is the Arena Eternal. He is the Forgotten One. A nameless soldier left behind by his own fellows. Left for dead, and dismissed for the able-bodied, this man...or what was once a man, was given to the cold embrace of space to give that final caress to Oblivion.

This was not to be. The rage this nameless man's spirit had burned like a hellish ghost lantern. He could not rest. He could not find peace. Death could not be the end, not until those who had left him to perish were made to suffer for their sin. This nameless soldier moved with the rest of the Tyrincidia's ghost crew...other forgotten. Killed as they did. Claimed others as they did. For each passing year the ghost vessel lurched towards Earth, the anger swelled, the impatience grew like a funeral pyre, beckening to the darkness to be squelched. 

This...was not to be.

When the Vadrigar claimed 'Ghoul,' so too was this nameless soldier taken to serve the Arena Eternal. Without possibility of vengeance, the Forgotten One wishes only to die, to find peace. Even in this he is denied, for no soul trapped in the Arena ever finds rest. No vengeance, no rest. He wanders the Arena now, begging for death, and releasing his rage upon those that cannot bring him what he wishes. A paradox of life and death, the Forgotten One remains. 

Happy Halloween!
