March 2010 Highlights

I am really, really terrible with names so I'm sorry if I forgot yours or misspelled it beyond recognition.

Friday:

- Seeing a lot of the same faces again and getting ready for some action.

- I must have spent the previous two hours internally griping about how heavy my new stainless steel chain shirt was (it weighs 35lbs) only to be suddenly thankful that it prevented me from getting the plague.


Saturday:

- Had a lot of fun roleplaying/learning with Gideon and Gwen.

- Enjoyed getting involved in the plague cure, and keeping in the loop of what was happening.

- NPC Duty: Getting actually shield bashed, glasses knocked off, grabbed and shaken, weapon pinned, and some player throwing himself in my way because I couldn't hurt him.  Chocked it up to people being a little excited.  Still had a blast.

- Main Mod: "Team Bacon" win


Sunday:

- Burgers made with a Highland recipe passed down from generation to generation.

- More awesome lessons from Gwen and Efreeki (sp?).  Thanks for finding volunteers to get their arms lopped off, punched over and over, and beaten with blunt objects.  Healer lessons are a little sick but hilarious.

Ded Dawg O'Doul had fun this weekend

Nice to know some remembered the old Coot of a Buccaneer from last Sept.

Alas Me Buckoos. I couldna walk too far in da snow Part of me "Sugars Problems
Me sea legs been hav'n the cramps when I do heavy walking.  Woke up a few times with pains in me laigs on Friday and Sat nights

Really enjoyed interacting with Oldies and Noobies as well doing a little RP in the Inn

One disappointment  same is with our LARP in Indiana ,, So many youngins coming to play with their toys , But no thought about food or sleeping stuff

Jist me 2c's worth

March Highlights:

Friday -

Learning the first steps to the ways of Chaos.

Celt/Gypsy roleplay.

Devil mod.  Every person telling the Wild Mage/Chaos Warrior to not do anything stupid in regards to the fight with the Devil.  Twenty minutes and three fallen hoss enemies, Paetros takes his first trip through the focus.

Saturday -

Being asked "Do you know how to do zombie makeup?".  Being the head of a zombie apocalypse LARP, I was very amused by this question.  Proceeded to spend an hour before shift and an hour after doing PC and NPC latex boils... providing bloody hankies as well.  

First NPC shift Saturday had some great people in it... being able to RP instead of just getting beat sticked the entire shift was fantastic.  Remember, the goblins own half the town.

Kaladonia.... what a wonderful collection of oddballs and misfits.  Looking around the Kaladonia residents and realized that a large number of the most quirky, odd, and mentally unstable individuals reside within Kaladonia.  

Main Mod with the wedge formation.  It is not common to get a group of PCs to actually be able to pull off a formation and stick to it.  However, for 99% of the main mod, our group not only used formations... but used them in such a way that they worked!  Seeing people hold shield lines, keeping defensive perimeters, and working with the healers, mages, and scouts to keep the front line running was amazing.


Downsides:

Dangerous terrain.  I saw a lot of people take some serious bumps during combat scenes due to sink holes, ice patches, and overall dangerous combat terrain. 

Since the plague zombies really only could infect you if they did damage to you, I saw a few of the 'high level'  PCs treat the plague as a joke since their damage reduction prevented them from being effected.  Sorta ruins the RP of seeing dozens of farmers and central towns folk growing deathly ill when you have a couple people ignoring the RP of the situation.


It's a dead man's party
Who could ask for more
Everybody's comin', leave your body at the door
Leave your body and soul at the door . . .

Don't run away it's only me

Kaladonia.... what a wonderful collection of oddballs and misfits.  Looking around the Kaladonia residents and realized that a large number of the most quirky, odd, and mentally unstable individuals reside within Kaladonia.  

But You've got admit, there is rarely a dull moment when Kaladonians are around.

My Highlights

*CupCakes and Celt Food
*Giving a cupcake to the muffinman.
*FAVORITE MOMENT: RP on the steps with 4 Wilds Mages, Ravyne and the Inquisitor and a 5th wild mage walking by. "Did you do anything illegle?" "nicht" "what is a nicht say yes or nose." ect... "Take some classes, learn common. its free!" "wheres the fun in that?" Oh could you imagine the effect if an insult went too far and one of the wild mages lost their cool?
*New Gyspy Group you were a lot of fun!
*Having Great IC/OCC conversation with New Gobo
*It was great seeing everyone again. I've been gone since Ball and it was a really needed break from reality.

Low Lights
*Cold... I'm allergic I break out in hives... So once the sun when down I was not a happy Camper.
*Having to leave feast because of the flashes going off and having to miss the entertainment.
*The Guy with the Puppet... (I'm sure you're role plalying was awesome but Puppets freak me the hell out)

(Edited to add the two lowlights. I didn't want to add it in a new post.
