This was an interesting event for me, as it was the first time I've never played Bran. it was really gratifying to see how popular Sergei is, though I suppose the magic massage hands help.

Friday:

- Local legends and ghost stories with Curt before lay on, followed by hookah and Liar's Dice. There can not be enough good things said about the goings-on in the yurt.

-Highland songs with Clyde. The solution is more alcohol and more bawdy tunes.

-Making out like a bandit in buying stolen goods, suggesting the thieves be tracked down, then turning around and making a profit on reselling them after the thieves had been caught.


Saturday:

-Shower. 'Nough said.

-Lovely Crystal dagger, courtesy of Elric and bantering with Paige and others before going and doing the stupid.

-Helping to cook for feast was great. From the jokes, to the love song puns, to everyone enjoying the food, it was a wonderful experience, even if I missed plot mods. Besides, who needs plot when you have bacon?

-Mongolian tea courtesy of Nyle, hookah, and Celt vs. Gypsy racial slurs. Good times.

-Sergei has an apprentice, what?

-Winks telling Sergei to use his magic to cause havoc during main mod. Warlocks + skirmish fighting = shenanigans.

-Teaching Yusef, Father Thomas, and three others "Barnacle Bill the Sailor" before main mod. I thought Jesse was going to fall off his bench.

Sunday:

-Helping Seamus teach Elric Shield Mastery. Vertigo + Blindness = more shenanigans.

-The Charlie Happy Dance. You should all be sad you missed it. It was glorious.

This was by far, one of the best events I've been to. First and foremost, I need to thank Zach and Cy for making this weekend phenomenal.

Friday:
-Welcomed our new addition to the church, Mother Ellie. Yay we now have at least 1 priestess per light god!
-Church shenanigans...too detailed...

NPC:
-Going out as chaos warriors and somehow, I don't know how, but SOMEHOW I ended up being married to Chris Zipeto's NPC again. Ok, so last time we were wolves but same thing...
-Brogan and Soloman's faces as we kept interrupting Brogan during his descriptions of the light gods.
"But wait! If Andorra's the goddess of loooove, why don't she got a heart for her symbol? And Valos guy's the god of justice! He should have a hammer or whatever a judge's got!"

Saturday:
-Woke up to biscuits and bacon. 'Nuff said.
-Father Artemis showing us the journal about the trials, and immediately being sucked into plot. And loving every minute of it!
-Marika felt so honored that the Archbishop immediately chose her to attend the trial of Life. And to perform the ritual to open the portals.
-Good response to my apple pie cheesecake. Next time, peaches.
-Love Trial: Grappling the poor tormented souls from behind and soothing them into submission. Awesome RP after they calmed down.
-Peace trial was won by bacon!!!!!

Life Trial:
-Wow, just wow. The Tree of Life...she ALWAYS needs to be healed
-I went in there figuring I'd use most of my healer list to fix something. And after neutralizing some poisons and with the help of many others, healing the wounds, it was almost fixed. But I ended up using my gypsy racial to save it Wording a Gypsy Hex correctly=counteracting the curse on the tree
-Typhon and I both took the diseases from it
-And while I must eventually part with the item the tree bestowed upon me, I am keeping the never-wilting rose!

-Um, maze mod? I felt sooo useless...
-Managed to get to feast in time for steakon and peach cobbler...barely

Main Mod:
-So, this ritual...hoy...
-Very amused by the car that drove by. All they saw were people standing in a circle holding candles in the middle of the night. Yup, we are officially a cult now.
-Restoring Death's limbs to convince him that Life is sacred and should be cherished.

Sunday:
-Um, Goblin tree. Elias, that completely made my entire day, just saying.
-Although brief, good RP between Marika and the others witnessing the torturing in the monastery. One day, she will be able to control her Empathy...one day.
-And it must be restated- the Charlie Happy Dance

All in all, AMAZING weekend. It involved everyone so well. I had so much fun

Wow! What an awesome weekend, and a perfect one for my first PC'd event!

Friday:
Coming in to Travance with other new characters and making good friends with Dr. Jamus Wilson and little hobbit Mara
Keavy reuniting with Caelvan in the Inn, total shocker for both. What does he do to welcome her? Get her drunk! Because elves can handle ale, right?

Almost dying when undead barge into the Kaldonia state house, then getting revenge when I'm cured. (Earned RP points too! The NPC's liked how I acted I suppose )

Saturday:
Tracking lesson with Sir Crestingstar. Really cool RP. Keavy certainly appreciated it.

Sparring with Sergi, learning some helpful moves.

The Trial of Creation mod was really cool. Loved the idea. Kicked some ass and impressed Squire Rion enough for him to invite Keavy to the recruitment of the Baronial Guard.
I also liked the RP Blacktree and I shared:
"Keavy, you said you can draw, right?"
"Yes, I did."
"Then surely you must capture this battle once we're done here!"
"Of course!"

NPC shift:
Wolves. Fearsome and funny
First time being an elemental! Pretty fun, but missed the feast. Oh well, next time.

Getting drunk again to tease Caelvan. Adairus, Waylind, and Sergi enjoying both Keavy drunk and Caelvan mad.

Mod with the mysterious blue ores before main mod. Interesting and fun.

Main mod:
Holy crap. What an amazing plot. RPing the tension building up before the battle. Advice from Quan Liu as well. Fighting against demons. Dropping multiple times against Chaos, but getting back up to attack him again. Accidentally scaring some people with Keavy's natural instinct to growl at enemies Fighting alongside Caelvan, dropping, and having him avenge Keavy with all his anger, and vice versa. After being cured, partnering up with Adairus to defend the ritual circle.

After main mod, having an advanced literacy lesson with Na'ar. (I love banana grams )

Sunday:
Rats. Never being friendly to rats ever again.
Cat-like grace lesson from Caelvan, whilst almost all of Travance observes.

Farm mod against vines and spores who were stronger than expected. Dropped multiple times. Keavy owes Na'ar, big time for his help.

Returning to the Inn and once again sneaking a drink to tease Caelvan. Chugged half the bottle!

Battling whatever the things were that came to the Inn, and also helping carry Blacktree to be healed.

What an event! Can hardly wait for the next one!

Just make sure you get my good side.

Also, I only NOW remember that I met you for like 5 seconds at new years, don't know if you recognized me with my hair up in the wig. Glad you had a good event!

It was a great event for me as I wasn't even going to be able to make it originally. I'm glad I came. I took home about half the camp with me via all the mud that was caked onto my coat, jeans, boots, & gear. It was a mess doing laundry when I got home last night.

Highlights...
1. Seeing my friends.
2. Seeing my friends (needed to be said twice. )
3. Meeting the new folks who came & hearing their war stories from old times.
4. Finally using my dungeon delving skills. No more using the person with the highest body/defenses to spring the traps.
5. Learning from Ben how to run a monster marshal shift. Its way harder than it looks.
6. Beef short ribs is an oxymoron. Nothing short about what I ate. (That sounds dirty to me...)
7. Jed. Oh Jed.
8. Amizar & his prophecy talk... WHAT???

Lowlights...
Mud. Mud. Mud.
My waking up Winterdark b/c I confused which building had the bathroom in it. Sorry guys & gals.
Seeing the road/path Radley is traveling & knowing if he's not careful, he's going to be joining all the other ex-Knights & Squires of Alisandria & turning into "not-a-nice-guy".
