    This is a very important fact, Zahak.
    This NPC is named Roysia. Many other camps seems to have one new NPC added according to databases.
    Finally we know, why some chars have the achievement and told me , that they have never seen Ansgar.
    But it complicates the situation somehow.
    I found out, that the GM was at Istory 25.5, but in the wastelands of Bloodshore.

    Another fact, i will most likely miss this achievment, because R20 and R30 camps are not needed for me anymore besides a 1 min visit for bringing in locals.

    Another fact. Because noone mentioned other places/camps,which this Gm can spawn, we have a serious community problem.

    I've been reading this topic and find myself confused and a bit dismayed. I don't really care about the achievement, but I do want to meet these new plot NPCs.

    Now here's where I'm confused, there's 2 names mentioned. It sounds like one is a white-named GMPC and one is a green-named NPC, and they appear together? Or at the same time, but in different areas?

    And here's where I'm dismayed; like ScoutX I doubt I ever get to see them. I am a Limsa homebody and prefer spending my time in that area, but I'm usually not at any of the camps since I prefer picking fights with critters to guildleves. Still, sounds like even if I were a Campmonger, I'd have little chance of seeing the NPCs because I just plain don't like spending my time in Ul'dah.

    Regardless, I want to see these guys badly enough that I have started doing Ul'dah locals in hopes of catching them. So far, no dice. And, I really don't like hanging out there for too long. I get bored and the elevator city music puts me to sleep. Give me the majestic sounds of the sea and Limsa's dashing melody anyday.

    So, is it fair to say the only way to see these guys is to camp out at Horizon and hope to get lucky? My usual luck would dictate I could do that all day, and then have them appear the very moment I log out or get disconnected for whatever reason.

    Have any Limsa Lominsians seen this pair at our adventurer's guild and outlying camps?

    To clear the mind: you need to speak with the NPC, so said known Alfgar or Roysia. You don't need to see the the GM, which is counted as a player. To clear it more, you really need to speak . Jost going afk and you found the chatlog with the prophectic text, isn't enough.
    I don't think , the GM is always up. I had the luck or was it a coincidence to see Alfgar spawning directly after i logged in at 1.6.2011. 1.30 pm UTC +2 ( Square see it as GMT+2; SE will never reflect summertime in the correct way). The exact time i called the GM the day before.
    I wasted over 100 Anima with Sidekicks to find the GM and i had no luck. I'm to 95% sure, the GM was not on this server.
    This indicates that the NPCs are scripted maybe on a timely manner.
    The next spawn on Istory was at 4.6.2011. I dont know the time, but it should be 11pm or later UTC +2.

    To clear the question of other areas and other NPCs. First of all the mentioned NPCs are only found at one place.
    Are there other NPCs e.g. for Limsa Lominsa?. Most datamining websites mention anything or they have so many NPCs without a location or any description, that you are clueless again.
    We need a really good Wiki , which are constantly updated. I can say for LL, that there seems to be an NPC near AV-Guild in LL, which is unknown to me. I spotted a green dot at YGs website. Couldnt find out what NPC this is. Bloodshoore e.g. has no new NPC, if you look at YG, which doesnt say anything; could be uncategorized and the location not parsed by any player.
    Same goes for the Shroud area.
    Sadly enough the best bet is to settle to Thanalan for a while. There is most probably a 3 day script at work for the NPCs. Probably around 41 hours. Thr times are not identical to other servers, so you have to figure it out for your own server.

    Alfgar appeared in Ul'dah on Lindblum server at 3:10 PM CDT (4:10 EDT) on Wednesday June 1 2011

    edit: he disappeared just after 3:50

    edit2: I got the achievement, and I never saw the GM that supposedly shows up with him

    I have heard of Ul'dah outside Rhomulu's Bric-a-brac, Drybone, Horizon and Black Brush, which in turn implies a prominent plaza in each city and the first 3 camps would also be appropriate points.

    A few other points that could use clarification if people know:
    - Will the GM only show up during the "unusual weather" events we've been experiencing or any time at all?
    - Must you receive the buffs from the gm AND speak to the NPC for the achievement, or will just the latter do?

    I've never seen the GM but I've seen Alfgar and I just now noticed this achievement in my history. I was at the Adventurer's Guild in Ul'dah waiting for my group when I see an NPC start talking in /say. I thought maybe it was the GM so I ran over and found him but it was just Alfgar. I spoke with him and that was it. I imagine that's all you need to do to get the achievement.

    Yeah, I've been idling in Ul'dah for the last two days hoping to see him appear.
