October 2011 Highlights

So, This was a very busy event.  I think there was barely any time to breath with everything going on.

Friday:
-When I get there "Why aren't you doing the Mithral Chef?"  "Sorry"
-The funeral was very well done.  Thank the gods Ekaterina didn't pull Leandra into the dancing.  
-Ann and I NPCing the little girls eating fingers.  Some how Oryx ended up responsible for us.  
-After a bed time story, we snuck out and ran into Sorel, I think we freaked him out a bit.
-The group of us playing diseased farmers.  "Damn it Steve, stop going into strange caves!"

Saturday:
-So much good food!!!!
-Leandra was given a rose, how sweet.
-Sold 2 jars of butter.  YAY!!!  Maybe I should bring extra next month.
-Being warned just after market fair that someone new had the fire blade and wanted to find out what would happen if he touched the two together.  BAD THINGS!!!!!!!!  I was twitchy the rest of the day.  Made me realize how many people care about Leandra though.
-Being dragged into a dream right before feast.  Leandra doesn't like the feeling of dieing.
-RPing being too freaked out to really enjoy feast.  Had my back to the room.  Ended up eating then hid in the monistary for a while.  
-Being helpful on main mod.  I enjoyed fighting with Pendarvin.  
-Hiding behind Rayven in the dream world while he is fighting, he gets dropped and I lasted maybe 2 seconds after that.
-Learning courage last month came in handy.
-Went to get up when Apollo attacked and being told "Leandra go back to sleep, you're no use to us how you are now."  and answering "Yes, Mom."  then going back to sleep.

Sunday:
-Going on order mod and talking a Greater Earth Elemental into giving us a rock we needed.  Yay we didn't die.  But of course IG I really dislike the wealder of the fire sword.
-Ekaterina and Leandra cooking breakfast for the light clergy.  Food went fast.  

Wow, where to start?

First, I suck with names.  If people recognize themselves please chime in and I'll fix it.

Friday Fight Knight:
I NPCed all night and got involved with the skeleton funeral busting, et all.  It was a great introduction to KR.

Saturday:
It was a great great day also.  I loved RPing with Lady Casandra and Lord Blackthorne and learning theology from Archbishop Labell(guess who went from "meh" about Galladell and Champions of Light to "maybe").

Also fun was learning first aid form someone from Ostcliff(and watching a resuscitation with an alcohol infused perk).

Chatting with Lethias and Amalthea about my backstory was pretty cool. 

Staying in the in for the main mod was fun but next time I think I'll be going out to risk it. 

Sunday:
Sunday was super relaxed though I picked a short straw as far as leaving late. 

It was fun to use the powers of "sit back and watch" and see things unfold. 

I think my only regret is that everyone seemed to be too tired to want to hang out at a diner or something afterwards.

Regardless, you'll definitely have "Bat" Cooper to deal with in November(I would go to the Moresca Ball but going stag just seems in poor taste).

Anyhow, thank you all for your kind reception.  You're the best!

hmmm where to start...

well there was getting a sneak peak at the new NPC template system that the other Ben had created as I was cutting them out for him during my NPC shift.

then there was my "break" from cutting out templates for almost four hours, in which I went out as the skeletal champion... I swear I was nor following Erdrick... but his reaction when I came out of the woods near the inn made my night.

As for the several times I got hit in the head: no harm done, accidents happen.

Friday night; after the NPC shift.
arriving at the inn just as everyone got sucked off the steps into the portal, and my prompt reaction being "that was either me not sleeping, or it is a friday."
leave it to the smiths to figure out how to end a panic attack. the rest of the night was rather uneventful for me.

Saturday:
why is it that almost every person I have ever taught an ability to has been a Dragoon so far? just wondering.
not being able to work at market faire because I was making money at the forge was kinda both good and a bit of a downside...
I am really sorry Geoff, I completely forgot that I didn't learn gird shield yet >.< I will have to fix that next event.
Mass: I was glad to provide the satyr's wine Physrep ^___^
oh... and Tom the wasp... the first of my massive army... makes me want to pick up Trade: bee keeper. (for those of you who were standing around the porch of the monastery around the time that mass took place... yeah...)
staying with the archbishop during main mod and realizing that I was one of the sturdiest fighters who was guarding the door to the inn.
Dan Gill: winner of the "Best 'smash door' action" award for October 2011.
having to fight off a couple dozen collosal trolls in the inn before everyone returned from the grand stupid. yeah that was fun.

sleeping through the Apollo lich thingy. yeah... I am kinda glad I did that...

the next day hearing about the brigands right outside the monastery in which I promptly got up, walked outside, then beat the snot out of the nearest one. (I love incap!)
having the monastery pretty much cleaned up before the clean up hold was even called.


all in all it was an amazing weekend, got to meet a bunch of the new players, and I got to learn more about the older ones... also, the fact that I am somewhat responsible for the creation of a rumor was pretty cool.

All in all, this was one of my favorite events so far, never a dull moment in RP or lack for something to do.

Friday:
- Before lay-on, getting to play Kubb vs. Ben T., it was a good game and  Irather enjoy this Viking beer pong.
- Also before lay on, getting positive feedback on my boffer weapon creation that I made for a new player. I haven't made one in a long time, glad to see I still can do so well with it.
- NPC Shift: Scaring the right proper s*** out of several folks in town as my faceless Nightmare necromancer with my horde of almost twenty zombies and skeletons for about four hours... That was pretty awesome.
- Not doing much else on Friday night other than telling jokes to the McLaughlin's at the inn, leaving far too late and getting caught up in one of the Nightmare sequences as a result...

Saturday:
- Waking up for a quasi-master warrior lesson, though the dehydration didn't help.
- Being chosen by Vox to bear one of the Aspects into the battle at the Tree of Dreams. The RP that ensued all day with Allister and Lethias and Barack made my day, as did the Big Damn Hero cigar during Kubb. To the player of Birnum and Vox (I don't know your OOG name), you made my event, thank you. Also, the wonderful irony that the Aspect filled Seámus with "the excitement of someone on their wedding day" when he is set to be wed in May? Too perfect.
- The sheer number of townsfolks who readily provided me with protections, buffs and other gear for the fight was incredible to me. Geoff, your offer of your shield and hammer dumbfounded me both IG and OOG, as did Father LaBelle's loaning of the Aegis to me.
- Actually feeling like I was pulling my own weight during Main Mod for the first time, not to mentioned feeling like a bad-ass for ripping the true warlock out of the Tree of Dreams. Wally, you did a wonderful job hamming up the pain from being pulled out. Just sucks that Luis got hurt

Sunday:
- Had a rather relaxed Sunday, despite the elemental swarm. Taught a few lessons, helped wrangle the Psion Sisters and actually "tied" one of them up with my tartan sash. Sucks that I missed the Clergy Breakfast though

Where to even start~~ I'll just type the first few that come to mind.

-"Meld with Bed, Hide in Covers" Great times with Philadin, Oren, Mae and Aquene.
-Having my hair sniffed by Zahir as his Jax, not knowing it was him, being told it was him and having a "Oh -shrug-" reaction to Mae's delight. "You're so calm about it!"
-Watching Misaki be dragged around by Magnus and Keillor, and not being able to do anything about it.
-Healing minor insanity first thing in the morning. (I always knew you were crazy, Misaki!)
-Hobbit hunting with Misaki! To quote him, "They're taking the hobbits to Isengard!"
-Using Basic escape to get out of the stump when there were ogres outside so I could get away. First time using the skill!
-Amazing amazing market faire. I swear, Bran and Seamus are going to run Kamei into poverty.
-Hookah with Zahir! Great makeup job, so awesome seeing him as Jaxuarian.
-Helping Bill with feast for three hours, and enjoying that and Magnus's yearly song. ^.^
-Main mod was amazing! Death Fiend, and working with a true warlock. And, being able to down people, by just getting up in there and not caring if you're downed. Also, I hate PC's with shields when I NPC....I can't get at them.
-Going out as nightmare marketer. Selling bogus items that were insanities And, laughing sickness from fellow NPC's!!!! So amazing. Even I was laughing.
-Sleeping through Apollocaust 2.0. And first one was also slept through...hmm...this may be a good or bad thing
-RPing a bit with Zander on Sunday was nice

Low lights:
-Not getting to KR until 3am because of work, being delirious, and finally going to bed and crashing.
-Seeing Luis get hurt )=  I am glad he did make it back to game and didn't hurt himself too awful bad (now, he just needs to stay off of it ;P )

Also, I hate PC's with shields when I NPC....I can't get at them.

You're welcome.
