March 2010 Highlights

Long live Develica and long live Dinnerdark

had fun overall...
friday:

+Actually finding a place to sleep, although it was behind the forge.
+NPC shift was fun, kept being sent out as one of the original plague victims, and swinging at least once on everyone in my path.   I was told we were supposed to get up and regrow everything even if dissipated, so after being mauled by erdirck, and then taking enough 15s to drop, getting back up only to hear dissipate undead and see lethias.
NPC shift part two, I got to be one of the two death nights at devil mod, and had fun being one of the targets that two of the witch hunters, and soloman.  "Hold! are you ok?  you are so lucky you didn't fall on that sharp stick right under you."
+ getting dressed into character and getting my armor fixed as I finished pulling on my coat.

Saturday:

+Helping out for breakfast wasn't greatly fun, but at least it kept me from getting the plague, and gave me time to find a bit more out about the towns members that had gotten the plague.
+coming up with a few ideas to keep the towns members that were already plagued from infecting others without wanting to, and passing information around to those who were fighting off the peasants.  "Don't let them sit still too long, and dont let fire touch them.  It's bad for every one in the area if either happen."
- got the plague from a gas cloud around one of the peasant walking through the inn.
+plague gave me certain RP advantages.
+Ran a bacon booth for market faire, and I will be doing it from now on.  You all were so happy to see bacon, I figure I will make a batch for market faire, and another one for sunday morning. Same prices and same bulk discounts. (PM if you would like to know.)
+The rp with Father Edwin for learning more about the gods, to see if I should follow galadell or not.
+being useful during main-mod, and being the only member of team bacon(magnus' group) to use the blade of victory to keep an enemy from getting to someone.  (Stone skin on my list this month saved me from three severed limbs that night.)

Sunday:

+sleeping in after main-mod.
-sleeping in after main-mod.
+Teaching someone how to use a sword.  That was my first time teaching.
+Learning first aid, and small weapon.
-wet feet.  one of my boots broke, so I have to fix it somehow before next event.
-taking far too long to get home after we left.

I just wanted to take a second and thank all the NPCs who helped run the Devil Mod on Friday night.  It ran awesomely and you did a fantastic job, especially since it kept you all way past your NPC shift slot. 

Thanks!
Doug

highlight 1: coming to the realization friday night that "the sick come back as undead. towns ppl are sick. . . culling of Travance. and then realizing that inspite of Brax being a great priest and an excelent galladelian... he's a horrible horrible person.

Highlight 2: sunday morning with "Sir" (lord) Brightstar and Faux-Jus . . . I look foward to Sam NEVER letting me live that down.

lowlights: being in accomodations that were both cramped/crowded... and far too alone at the same time.

Feast: Dianne (sp) EXCELENT as always

First of all I'd like to thank everyone for an awesome first event. I enjoyed myself immensely and am already looking forward to more. It really did make me wonder why I waited so long to actually join up, when I had SO MANY people telling me to go.

Now, on to the highlights...
-Having makeup and costuming concerns the week leading up to the event get easily solved before arriving. Big thanks to Mike for telling me about the arm gloves, and Cassie for helping apply my makeup.
-Getting there and finding out I had a bunk saved for me. Was quite awesome considering I always have to work Fridays.
-Intro mod was quite fun, I immediately got into goblin-mode, sneaking around the fighting for a good attack position.
-One of the other players (I'm very sorry I forgot your name), upon realizing I was playing a goblin, insisted she was going to introduce me to Brick so there could be "adorable goblin babies." This was the same player who also insisted on calling me Steve #2...
-Meeting Brick anyway and her telling me to let her know if I ran into any trouble for just being a greenskin...us gobs gotta stick together!
-Going to the bar right away and putting myself out there to be the new bartender...too bad I never found Jonas Kane at all to talk to.
-Introductory RP was kinda slow at first, but once the plague plot started up I met more and more people IG.
-Helping with breakfast Saturday was great, and a good way for me to get to know more people. Big thanks to Charlie for the opportunity.
-Being involved with a couple of the plague zombie attacks outside the inn, taking a couple hits which were absorbed by my armor, commenting on how it was a good idea to get it repaired that morning, and having Alastair look over and go "now THAT'S a smart goblin."
-Sharing my nearly endless supply of jerky and passing around my flask seemed to be the perfect way to make more friends.
-Great RP with Blade outside the Inn after he got infected.
-Being incredibly lucky about not getting infected in a combat...and then a zombie explodes in the fireplace...
-Going on the yeti mod was a lot of fun...getting 6 broken limbs in a single combat not so much...
-Brick, Ib, and Winks getting together purely to complain about hobgoblins = win.
-IG and OOG conversations with a certain gypsy.
-Main mod was awesome, even though I was a noob and didn't bring enough extra socks so my feet were absolutely frozen in my boots.
-Started the ball rolling on getting some more leather armor made, IG and OOG...Mitch I'll definitely let you know when I'm able to pay for that.
-NPCing Sunday was great, especially when like a quarter of the town showed up just for a small band of kobolds...

Wow that's a lot, but I guess it's expected from my first event.

Addendum: Erdrick too.  He's fun to RP with.  Just saying
