August 2010 Highlights

Friday night:
Low Level plot, awesome-
Feladryn, thanks for stealing the hilarious yet possibly useless ramblings of an old man.
Also, thanks to whoever made the three-hour cookies!

Saturday:
French Toast on NPC shift was awesome
Getting to be a Lizardlady brought back to life by Emar, some fun RP there
Standing in the Positive energy circle during the lich mod and NOT getting dead
Thanks to Seamus for being a envenomed so I could learn to fix it

Sunday:
Being woken up first by Friendly NPC Bard
Then woken up by stabby gnolls
And finally waking up/leaving the guard barracks hearing a confession to use of necromancy scrolls and "Incinerate!"

Lowlight: Shower in the guard house turning to a trickle about when I stepped in.  Otherwise an all-around great time!

Friday:  
-Bringing another friend from my old larp to KR and having him fit right in.

-"We're sleeping right by the forge?  Cool, maybe we can ask Gideon to help us out with armor.  Wait, he's 'doing paperwork' most of the event?  Ah hell, sleep lightly, lads."

-Feeding people chicken I had marinated for three days.  I love feeding people and seeing the looks on their faces as they bite into my food. Thank you everyone for the compliments.

-Realizing that Bran is crazier than I thought.  Always interesting to learn more about one's own character that one didn't quite expect.

-Tending to the torsos of Seamus and Rione with a broken leg.

-Actually sleeping Friday night.

Saturday:
-The grand opening of Bran & Seamus's Fine Highland Imports.  Thanks to all our lovely customers who made it a successful business venture.  Also, oh my gods the lamb...

-Off to do the stupid in a tomb with a Drow lich, skeletal knight, and skeletal assassin.  Squaring off with said undead with naught but my fists and proceeding to thoroughly enjoy meself in pounding the crap out of them, then playing out one of my minor insanities at the end.  Thank you, Rannick for some entertaining rp by litterally carrying me over your shoulder down that hill.  

-Dwarven Snack Time is officially more awesome than Hobbit Second Breakfast.

-Feeding people Guinness brownies and Bailey's chocolate cheesecake, and overhearing that they are slowly becoming legend.

-Spending time with my merry band of idiots and friends.

-NPC shift full of lulz and entertainment.  Having "Tyler" learn that Travance, with the exception of Kamei, is rather bad at blackjack (I think "Tyler" amassed more gold and silver during that shift than I did my first two events combined) and certain Tellinghasts enjoy Go Fish.  Also, being well and truly schooled in chess by Charlie.  Always fun to see a highly skilled player in action.

Sunday:

-While trying to cellect my thoughts after just waking up, being attacked by npc's, pulling back the tent flap and Fearing the first troll I saw.  That's what you get when you disturb Bran first thing in the morning.

-Post-wakeup shower.  It felt good to be clean, even more so when I realized the npc's were attacking the room next door.

-Being called upon to help teach Rannick, then having Belegchand approach me and ask to learn Gaelic and Lore: Chaos.  Always a good way to end an event by making an elf almost cry by using chaos to break his mind a little.

Once again, a fun-as-hell event made even better by awesome people and good food.  Thanks to npc's of every shift for keeping us all entertained and on our toes.

The a Chroniclerite Scholar cannot turn down free knowledge lol... and thank you for that, Bran... I felt like it was good rp for both of us

Almost missed highlight:

Friday Night, someone put up a Wall of Earth - I didn't see who on the dark path outside the Portal.  I began to go around it as my Demon, and ran into Emar and a Wall of Water.  This one was passable with an Elemental Shield, so I did so, and smacked the mage with the Wall of Earth.  2 seconds later, I called a Roundhouse Throw as the town tried to jump me all at once.

What I didn't know at the time is that I'd thrown Ib's bleeding corpse off the path, into the woods, where he took a death.  NOT what I wanted to do, honest!

That night, Ib was swearing revenge and riding backpack on Brogan as he tried to kill the two Generals.  No matter how fast we threw spells at Brogan, Ib was putting Fire / Earth shields back on him.  Every time my NPC roared in fury, somewhere inside was Gideon being more and more proud of his student.  A goblin under 10th level turned the tide of the battle for the town...

And Alexander cried that he was the reason Ib died... Glad that turned put well. Again, sorry Ib.

Highlights
Staying in a tent this is what Typhon would normally do anyway if he doesn’t prefer to sleep under the stars which we came pretty damn close to doing Saturday.
Introducing Lily the new Druid to Elawyn only to find that she and the more experienced Druids (and everyone else apparently) are going to Evernight. She asked me to keep an eye on Lily and I made sure to be her protector.
Belegchand: “Bay of Lune? How do you spell that?”
Other Scholar: “What kind of Scholar are you, can’t even spell Lune?”
Typhon: “He’s not a scholar. He’s a loon!”
Putting up Walls and Protecting people.
Using Inviolate Form thank you Lizardkin.
Getting to lead a pack of wolves with Animal Empathy. Sort of wish I had used Animal Companion. Jenna’s wolf: Look take out Khitanese delivered right to your door.
Main Mod shift being sent out as a Lizardkin Poisoner and getting one arm broken being subdued grasped with roots and then when the lizard kin was let go I still tried to attack getting the other arm broken and then getting Charmed “It Hurtssssssssss” All the RP of being Vigo and Lily’s Lizardkin friend.
Learning Commune which in my mind is the end all be all of Druidics.
Teag wanted for torching Ib melded with tree leaning after learning that the guards saw him go into the tree I just leaned on it and said to no one in particular. “I am just going to lean against this tree and if anything comes out it may find itself protected by a Wall of Thorns.”
Going to the Grove and being totally and completely lost with what was going on but still being glad just to be included in something despite only understanding every other word.
Waking up Saturday morning and hearing someone calling for help and thinking “I should go get Kwildar maybe we can help that guy.” Turning the corner and seeing that the person calling for help was Kwildar.
