August 2008 Highlights

Half way through my Tortellini alfredo dinner on friday night, surrounded by Adam (Cael), Mat (Max), and other KR friends, I realized this event was going to be a good one. My highlights were:

-Having the misfortune to be wearing a fancy gold and white mask when the Jester's men first attacked the Inn and subsequently getting stopped by other characters and interrogated multiple times throughout the day.

-having a very long debate about being a vampire, and the many tests of how to prove that I was one, ranging from drowning me in a vat of Holy water to letting Aleister stab me repeatedly in the heart with a sword. Oh, by the way, never use sarcastically say "OW" after getting healed if you are being interrogated for being a vamp.

-watching the chess match

-Sneaking around the battle field, trying to avoid the big and bad monsters in an attempt to waylay the enemies king piece; snuck up behind him perfectly and got him right in the back, he turns around and asks what type of waylay, while I look around confused and say, Normal, I'm level 2???

-Taking an Incinerate to the groin mid main mod, laying on the ground, dying from it, going to logistics and then having them laugh and say it didn't count because it was an illegal hit area. Adding now a fear of fire to character's personality

-Hearing that some priest from the light pantheon and a witch hunters sat down and had a "friendly chat" with Pesmerga who was a real vampire and then thinking back to the group of PC's that wanted to lynch me for being a vampire when i wasn't.

-Doing a diving waylay into the back of the Evil Druid on Sunday with no effect other than royally pissing him off and getting zapped with a lightning bolt for it.

and finally

-Jumping and sneaking around like a ninja striking for 1 damage while everyone else swung Made of Win

Not to sound redundant, but everyone and everything was amazing, once again.

Travance from a different angle is always nice.

Here's to good friends, new and old, and Kwildar's mom.



Thanks for everyones support for the Putnam Humane society. 

Before it was all done, we went from $600 to $700! 

Kwildar's Mom  "Num num, tastes like chocolate chip!"

Mmmm Kwildar's Mom.. tastes sooo good in mah belly.

Friday night: Chaos Healer.
I showed up to my NPC shift just in time, and heard to pick a class. I saw a lot of people going with a fighter class, and asked for druid. I didn't remember the verbals, so I said healer. I dropped once for everyone elses three. I just walked around, healing people, and no one bothered me.

Saturday:
Spooking Osred at his door for the morning mass.
Pursue training. Way to set the difficulty to young skinny kid full of suger, Steve-o.
The shock when I tagged him a break limb while invisible.
Market Fair was nice.
Learning a new skill, only to learn I can't since I don't meet the preqs. Having enough people shout "stop" every time someone took a swing at Odo for getting the rope onto them. Sorry to those that almost got garroted

Feast was good.
Changing to Dorian and kind of stalling from there. It was mostly a get things done moment spoiled by a self conscious gypsy with personal image issues.
Kitchen time with Quan Liu

Sunday:
Dave Morris Ogre "Break Shield"

Wow...so I am so tired...but am still awake...for a reason Im sure..anyways.

I loved this event. Absolutely loved it. The plot was original (I missed the first plot with these chars so I was glad I got a chance to be in this one)

NPC
-chess match. Everyone fighting each other. It was just awesome. Being told Im fighting Ethan. Proceeding to laugh myself to death inside while attempting to be calm on the outside. The enormous "OMG" when he went phenoix. I loved it. Seeing the town go nuts ftw...

PC
-being taught
-"That is the smartest thing I think you've ever said"...."Thanks?"
-dying....and not caring in the slightest for once...well after vampires entered the mix. Actually having someone risk themselves to do it too was nice.
-"Maybe you're not an idiot after all." yea....same person...diff char...still gets an eye roll....lol
-teaching sooooooo many people sooo many different things  Seriously...I dont think Ive ever taught that much. EVER. It was great and I hope everyone liked their lessons.
-Seeing the look on Ravyns face when I say.."We need to kinda kill someone so I can teach someone something. But dont worry its ok! They shouldnt actually die". Priceless.
-VAMPS. Are awesome. Just saying.
-Honestly thinking of becoming a gaian. Changing my mind when I started to then pray to Andorra in addition to Gaia again.
-Running. Everywhere. Normally this would suck. But the fact that I was able to do it and not be totally winded all the time was sweet.
-BATTLE GYPSY!
-A 1st rnk air spell being soooo useful in main mod. Touch casting on enemies and not really getting hit all that much ftw
-becoming less insane in some ways.

And so much more. I had such a great time with all of you. I sincerely hope I see you all in Sept. Take care!
