December Highlights

Two things additional things:

Paladin - "Divine Flame?"
Antrim - "Yea, he's good."

---

Cinder - "I'm not a unique snowflake anymore..." 

1. "For the purposes of Khitain mod, the role of Lethias Von Ritter will be played by Erim Walker"

2. NPC: "BREAK LIMB"
Me: "uh.... wait a sec.... parry! PARRY! I HAVE PARRY! I REMEMBERED! HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!" *runs off waving sword overhead*

3. *as ogres come thundering down the trail*
Lethias: Climb! *leaps into tree*
Me: *looks around desperately, then stops* oh yeah, I can do that too! *leaps into tree*

4. Hey look, a 5 silver piece, buried in some leaves! wait, that's not a silver piece... it almost looks like... wait, is that a pommel... TO THE DAGGER I LOST IN AUGUST?!

I FOUND THE CALIMACIL DAGGER I LOST IN AUGUST!!!!!

5. *post-main mod, when the true warlock was revealed* "Come on Shamus, its finally your Belmont test!" *groans and laughter all around*

6. Highlight: playing a real part in taking down a harpoon spider
Lowlight: Dropping the 5 gold piece he handed me into the snow while trying to fumble it into my pouch >_<. I will miss you little 5-piece, sitting somewhere below the frozen snow.

7. Highlight: Going to meet some friends, finding the cabin they were in with no trouble
Lowlight: Opening the door to discover a Penteire and Arcanum (or whatever the frack they're called) instead of my friends
Lowlight: I've got a freaking Penteire holding a sword to my throat
Highlight: he tells me to run away as fast as I can
Highlight: I run straight into a gathering of every dragoon in travance
Lowlight: "You're no match for these guys... stay here with us!" (I mean, really liam, examine the logic of that sentence)
Highlight: I am now part of Dragoon Mod
Lowlight: I am now part of Dragoon Mod
Me: "I'm not supposed to be here!"
Mixolydia: *looking bug-eyed and scared* no, you're not supposed to be here!"

Epic RP on the part of Derrick getting my and Cameron's corpses back to the inn, just in the nick of time to save Erim a trip through the focus, but a bit too late for Leif.



Edit: Forgot my favorite moment!

Sitting in front of the fire -- Friday night? -- when Fail Dragoon (sorry Reona I don't know her actual name) and New Dreadlock Girl (what IS your name???) come in and sit down next to me.

The dragoon is crying, dreadlock girl is consoling her. This goes on for almost 10 minutes, much to Erim's annoyance. Finally, the dragoon stops crying, and sits quietly for a bit. Then...

Me: *raises her hood* "hey, aren't you the dragoon who hid under a table while Magnus and Sorel, the beloved heroes of the town, were brutally murdered in their sleep?"

Dragoon: *bursts out in fresh tears*

(yeah, I know, I'm a bad person. But what would YOU do if a dragon warrior came in and started crying like a 13 year old girl at a middle school dance???)

EDIT 2

oooooooooh! and how could I forget super awesome main mod? Judge you were freaking awesome! 3 cheers for Drega'mire, winning KR single-landedly

My highlights in no particular order...

A cup of hot sexual chocolate...mmmmm.
"Then stop clappin' yer fookin' 'ands!"
All Hail Emperor Cinder of Shanty Town!
Philosophical conversations about creation, water and two guys who went to go eat steak & eggs..
Hookah in the winter = WIN
No doesn't mean no. No means waylay.
Chronicler + Brazen = Good times had by most
Best wield faith lesson EVER!!
"Did you just do a fiddler on the roof mod?"

It was SO worth braving the snow and wet and cold for this event. Epic RP, fantastic mods, and so much hot chocolate and tea! I hardly know where I should start, so the beginning seems appropriate.

Pre-game
* NEW BODICE! Once again, and I will never tire of saying this, thank you SO MUCH to all my KR friends who plotted alongside Zach to get me the best Yule present ever!! XOXOXO
* Finding a real ROOM to sleep in! And right next to the heater, too.
* Stripping to the Pink Panther theme song (i love you crazy kids)

Friday
* Thank you Courage Mod, for confirming my long-held belief that KR has created the single best list for Bards that I've ever come across in any RPG, tabletop or otherwise. I have never been so thankful for Fanfare of Bold Action or Break Mind Control in my whole life! To punctuate the awesome of Courage Mod, my Instill Confidence trinket totally won the day. Watching Radu go from whimpering to eloquent was fantastically funny. 
* Elawyn's newfound respect for Remi made both Remi and myself quite thoroughly gleeful.
* YULE MIRACLES! Magnus walks and Brik talks. Awesomeness!
* Really great RP over IG politics and drama with Victor, especially considering where all of that led by the end of the event.
* Drinking Pompus Circumstance's thumb, only to wake up on the floor (where's that tolerance, Remi? Come onnnnn) and then singing dirty songs in the wee hours of the morning (sorry for keeping you up, Shanty-town!)
* Satyr-wine shennanigans. At least one person in town has learned that Remi has a thoroughly active sense of humor, especially when it comes to pranking pranksters.
* Speaking of Shanty-town, we came up with some great alternate names, including "Montgomerysville," and "The Gossamer Ghetto"

Saturday
* Getting to meet Father Dios, and learning lots of interesting things about church politics
* Humility mod, and the absurdity that Hamish (invariably) brings to the table. "I KNEW we shoulda brought perfume!"
* Watching Oakroot step up to the plate and take on so much responsibility. Auntie Remi is so proud of you, baby! *sob*
* Thank Andorra (and Gentleman Jas) that Remi missed the Honor mod. Watching Sorel bleed out would have been the opposite of fun.
* FEAST!!! seriously, so delicious!!!
* Getting serenaded during feast (again?!) Jas, you have an incredible voice.
* Post-feast IG politics and drama. You know, for a satyr, Remi cries an awful lot.
* Temperance mod!!! Cute little rock totem... thingies. Can we come back and visit soon? Also, Mike Smith wins at roleplay.
* Yay for figuring out the bad guy's evil plans. Go team Erdrick.
* STIR FRY. Charlie, you're my hero. *HUG*
* More really great drama/politics RP post main mod.
* Wandering around as a spirit to discover that NO ONE is awake at 8AM on Sunday. Also, getting lots of really sad OOG looks when the blue headband got noticed.

Sunday
* Dr. West finding Remi with only minutes to spare before the Focus was necessary.
* They rolled a 5. On the bright side, Remi isn't blind due to insanity anymore. On the other hand, it'll be May before she's sane again. I'm so looking forward to crazytown RP, ohboy ohboy ohboy!

THREE more that I forgot:
Feeding the stray wolf pups who wandered into the inn looking for somewhere warm. whoever NPCed that, you guys were ADORABLE.
Remi: (while feeding the wolf pups scraps of raw meat) "Awww.... can we keep them? Pretty please? 'Cause I wanna call this one Fluffy, and this one Snuggles!"

Blade. "I want learn to blow stunningly." I laughed so hard my face hurt.

And an extra special thanks to Katie for her part in making the delicious stir-fry, because I forgot to thank her the first time. XOXO!  :-*

Two things additional things:

Paladin - "Divine Flame?"

Cinder - "I'm not a unique snowflake anymore..." 

Cinder looked so sad when he said it....


My real highlight was getting to come back for an event and see all my old friends and getting to roleplay with them again.  I was pretty happy to find out it was a druid based weekend as well.

Also, it was odd coming back and seeing so many new faces.  Hopefully I'll get to meet more of you when I return in the fall.
