June 2012 Highlights!!!!!

Thought I'd start up this bad boy!

This event was easily in the top three events I've been too at Knight Realms, if it does not easily snag the top spot.
From Lay on up to the end, it actually had me a bit scared.
So Judge, Steve, thank you!

Let's start!
Friday:
-Lay On, fantastically done.
-Trying to figure out what this stuff was!
-Actually feeling useful as Kamei as I kept getting dragged in every direction
-Getting to see Damien, who I have not seen in AGES
-Chris Z's mod at the graveyard, so creepy! Great job.
-Having my sandals break and having to walk barefoot for a bit before being able to get more shoes
==Best highlight was me getting infected by Judge's infected baby-belt thing. Being dragged from the roof of the stump down in front of everyone, being made into a human shield, both arms being broken and getting a chunk taken out of me and getting infected. Screaming louder than I ever have, laying on the ground just bawling my eyes out, screaming out why no one was helping me as this thing stood over me. Then being picked up by the arms and crying out again. I think I scarred the people of Ostcliff pretty good! Thank you for that awesome opportunity, Judge.
-Seeing the sun rise, then FINALLY going to bed.

Saturday:
-Three hours of sleep! YEAH!
-Khitan breakfast, talking about the dojo.
-Getting the taint cured and finally getting Khitan plot on the road again!
-Scouting out the infected areas.
-Having to deal with being frenzied because of the disease.
-Swimming!! and Hookah with Feng, and more swimming!
-Having Billiamm finding out that Kamei had been married to Baoyu.
-Dealing with a VERY angry celt.
-Hiding in the stump smoking hookah waiting for Billiamm to stop looking for Kamei.
-Nearly killing the flower that was going to save everyone because of being infected Go me!
-Getting sleep blade poisoned on my way to the bathroom... xD;
-Wanting to just lay down, but being pulled off places. Yay useful!
-Going on my first main mod EVER
-Having a good conversation with Quan Liu about the Billiamm thing.
-Finally speaking with Billiamm. Almost accepting his honor combat. Only to have him speak with Quan Liu, and it being said Kamei would commit senpuku. Billiamm said he didn't want that, and said for Kamei to live in her own shame. To which, Kamei did commit senpuku. Only to be saved by Billiamm and given to Galen, who could not heal me because he already did once. (yay crit!) After much speaking of honor, they agreed to Gaia's embrace me. Waking up, very baffled, asking Galen if that's what the focus was like. Billiamm telling Kamei she had died and regained both of their honor. Very good role play, A+!
-Trying to sleep...TRYING
-Being woken up by Zach-Zombie and Mal-Zombie. Chased out of my tent and up a tree in my night clothes. Only to be saved by Erdrick.
-Getting saved by Erdrick and Elawyn a lot! haha.
-FINALLY going to sleep at around 3am.

Sunday:
-Not wanting to wake up...
-NPC shift! With the cutest little boy ever Katie, Tommy is ADORABLE!
-NPC Shenanigans and awesomeness in the freaking hottest weather EVER
-Going back into character for about a half hour after NPC shift to learn Avoid.

Overall, the rating of this game and plot A+. Will game again!

Let me just start off by giving a HUGE shout out Steve Oros and Judge DeVoe for running an amazing event. You guys did an awsome job. Thank you.

Sadly, due to work I could not make it there til about 3am Saturday morning so I missed some events I wish I hadn't. One being the child burned at the stake. That would have contributed greatly to character development and amazing roleplay. The other was right after layon when the infected stormed the inn. Way to set the atmosphere guys, I hate that I missed it.

Another downer to the weekend was the heat. I swear, no matter how hard I tried I couldn't stay hydrated enough. I guess when you play hard these things happen, haha. I also feel that the heat contributed to a smaller turnout of people than usual. It's a shame, but what are you going to do?

Now! On to the good stuff. Plot. AMAZING! It really got people involved and really brought on a terrifying (but awsome) atmosphere to the weekend. That's what I like to see in the game, personally. I like to see characters questioning their morality and people testing just how far their characters are willing to go.

Also, to be 100% honest...the most fun I had all weekend was with the newer players. You guys are far beyond awsome. I can not describe how much I enjoyed roleplaying with you and getting to know your characters. You all made me feel the way I did at my first game. Thank you all. I hope to continue this at future games.

On a more personal note, my character is making way. I can't way to see the paths that roleplay will take her. I'm so excited.

Again, a big thank you to everyone and I can't wait to see you all next game!

First off, Judge and Steve, amazing plot, I am extremely excited to see how this goes.

However, I want to thank, just like Angel did, all the new players this event. The two meetings were something extremely important to my character IG, and OOG I had a blast at both of them. This long term plotline is the thing Belegchand cares more about than anything in the game, and to see so many new players really strive to take it in, and really seem to be interested in it, was a great feeling both IG and OOG. Roleplay was fantastic all around, and I cannot wait to see how everyone continues to grow with this story, as so many new layers get introduced. To all of you, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I hate myself that I left early, but I definitely needed some OOG care and well, no matter how AMAZINGLY AWESOME a plot is real life comes first.

Highlights from Friday-Sat Morning.

-Being Bum Rushed right after lay on. Not only did this make Ava feel like she was being herded (Something she REALLY doesn't like) but also finding out most of her magical ability did absolutely NOTHING to these infected things. Asking everyone to figure out what DID work magically against them, only to find out there was many conflicting reports because there were people in different stages.

-The screaming...oh god the screaming. That's probably what rattled me the most about the whole night.

- Ava complaining to everyone about how she felt we were all just being herded, and finally relieved when people started to leave the inn and go about business because she didn't want to be where the WHOLE town was.

-Meeting Yue! A Sibling she does actually like (besides tyr of course!). Also finding out that Yue is like literally like right off the boat Khitan and almost wanting to tell her to go back to Khitan.

-Losing track of Yue then Jack asking if I knew where Yue was. Ava worried for a few minutes, but then calmed down and thought that Yue was smart enough to be smart about going around.

-LEARNING LORE: CHAOS w00t. Great Lesson from Slightly Sane Billium. Got an OOG headache from seriously thinking about it too hard.

-OUTSIDE OF THE INN WHEN JUDGE'S BABY BELT NPC DUDE (I don't know what his name was/if he had a name) came. I hear people being all freaked out then the hold, then heard what happened then right after lay on booking it to the edge of the woods, jumping into some bushes then cloaking in shadows and not moving AT ALL and listening to the ensuing fight. Judge's voice was freaking terrifying and I was so glad that I stayed super still until everything calmed down and then got out ..

I'm so glad I did get to see at least some of the plot. It was SUPER DUPER WELL DONE. Listen Ava knows better not to walk around by herself and this was definitely the weekend where she was like "See what did I tell you?" Also, Ava isn't terrified of much, but we can now add, infected parasitic people things to that list.

I am sure this will be said again and again but..DAT HEAT. Wow.

Highlights:

-Setting up the caravan with Janice and Shane. I really dig you two
-Yue meeting Ava and them hitting it off really well. Especially, since people doubted they would.
-The sudden lay on attack of infected flying out was really well done. Yue was really trying not to freak out.
-Bringing Kitt to game and introducing him around Travance
-Walking around as soldiers collecting money-trying not to laugh at each other as we wandered around asking people for funds. As we went up to the Inn we heard screaming and people pouring out of the doors during the madness shouting, "RUN!!". We all booked it like there was no tomorrow.

I don't have too many...Yue took ill (aka I got pretty sick myself and had to leave early) and her healer, Kitt, recommended her to rest. But I love the game and seriously commend everyone that stuck it out in this weather.

Had an awesome event from start to finish! Special thanks to Steve and Judge.
I really liked just about everything that happened this event, from trying to figure out what was causing everyone to go crazy in town, to deciding who wields the legendary dragon swords! All in all there was a vast amount of action, and a vast amount of roleplay! Thanks to everyone to made this happen!
