November 2012 Highlights

Medusa times! Being a sneaky snake lady and hiding behind all my slithery protectors.

And as much fun as Medusa npcing was, I'm pretty sad I missed half of the friday night WH mod as a result. But... there is always next time, sort of, kind of.

Late, late, late night hanging around Mixolydia's fire with some good company.

Finally, officially squired. Hurrah!

I really enjoyed the entire Chroncilerite focus of the weekend, I've always hemmed and hawed between Galladel and Chronicler for Moirya and never really settled on one or the other. But I do sometimes wish I just went Chroniclerite and this event reminded me of why

Charlie, you are very welcome for me waking you up to hunt down PJs, socks, phone, lantern, macguffins and just about everything else!

I'm stoked about the Guard returning to back how it used to be and can't wait to see what it turns into.

The Bat Cooper witch hunter and then some talk. Good times!

Almost brutally murdering Darius. Look Sam, I just wanted an excuse to hit on Darius and couldn't do it as my PC, obvs.

Edit cause my memory sucks!

The gal who sung a Mumford and Sons song at feast!

And Yahtzee Last Supper!

- Swooping in and saving feast by making the dessert and working with Luis to make sure everything went smoothly.
- Witch hunter mod on Friday night
- Awesome squire is awesome
- Personal assistant= ftw
- All the props Alex and Keith made for the weekend looked sweet.
- Winterdark hospitality sponsered by Mixolydia

-My first event!
-Getting to play an explosive snake and watching all you high level people scream in agony from it.
-Slaying a fire drake and getting a role play point for it!
-Watching the intensity of the main mods (even though I was completely useless) was fantastic
-Sitting by the fire and eating s'mores with several people and making friends along the way

(Thanks again for an awesome first event!)

First Event I ever went to and it was a blast! I don't even know where to begin

-Friday-
New player Arrival and training was fantastic. Thanks to the marshals who ran it and the NPCs who took part. Your patience with us Fresh players was commendable! Big shout out to the other Fresh players as well! I spent time with several of you, but I'll get the rest of you next time!
Assault on the False Chroniclerite caravan was fantastic! Fighting back the lizardkin and keeping our shield wall going was fun, best part was when I and a woman with a shield protected a few healers as they got a few downed fighters back on their feet.

-Saturday-
Woke up with the sun and head off for breakfast! Big thanks to the nice girl who gave me the gold I needed to be able to afford it! Wish I could remember your name.
Return to the camp to wake up my friend, only to find Gnolls are everywhere and kidnapped people from my bunk! thank goodness I got up early, as when we finally fought our way back to the inn breakfast was done being served. (It was glorious. My compliments to the chef)
New Player mod, Magnus took a bunch of us newer players out into the woods where I would like to think I slew more than my fair share of Undead Trolls. Big thank you to all the healers who kept me going.
Kitchen Duty first shift- Glad I could help out Sharone! Sorry I had to run off in the middle. It was a ton of fun, and I'm so happy I could help out making such a delicious feast. Still want that recipe! Luis and Sharone ran a great kitchen, and I'm glad to have been a part of it. Being the Kitchen Bard was fun!
NPC Duty was so fun. Playing a pirate in that library mod was so much fun.
Hanging out with Cale and Ataru as we hunted down the tortured wild mages was great fun. And then we were attacked by Demonic Trolls.
-Sunday-
Another great breakfast! Then that exciting battle against all of the elementals out in front of the inn

Thanks to everyone who made this event amazing for me, I look forward to playing Lar again next event!

I just want to give a major shout out to Keith and Alex for a fantastic weekend. It was a complete and utter blast running around helping with this whole thing as my PC. I'm mean it honestly that it was nice to be useful in all respects. Originally I wasn't even supposed to be at the event but Sandy cancelling previous plans made it possible and I am weirdly grateful because of the experience and growth my PC went through.

Highlights:
~Dying for the very first time. Misaki had done his duty and died protecting me as well (guess you took your b-day death Cy like you predicted). The townmembers didn't see us propped up on the doors of the inn as those Chaos Elementals ganked half the town. It was a lot of fun to see how many people reacted strongly to my PC being killed and instantly people seeking out Dr. Maxwell to reanimate me. Even Archer was upset and searching for Dr. Maxwell so I felt some Pendarvin love going around. Those who did not know me personally apparently knew my reputation enough to go "oh crap...Ardin is gonna be PIIIIIIIISSED" down in Ostcliff. Thank you Father Elrick for carrying me all the way there after running all over to find Dr. Maxwell with my body. Dr. Maxwell--though you said I was the worst dead body ever, you had to admit it was fun. Downside--I'm slightly crazy again.
~The lovers spat RP afterwards between Aemorniel and Misaki when he was reanimated. To those who witnessed the choke--it was fake. Believe me--stage combat is my job practically. Very proud of you Cy for pulling that off convincingly and catching me off guard with that. Afterwards the RP where they talked it out in their usual awkward fashion was very sweet. Their romance, though rocky at times, really is seeming to blossom.
~Waking up to being Reanimated with Ardin hovering over me, me laying on Dr. Maxwell's lap in the yurt, and Lord Ardentfyre standing at the doorway to check on me. Dr. Maxwell and Ardin's face as I declared with despair that I failed as a doctor and as an apprentice of Dr. Maxwell because I was found dead and that apprentices of his weren't allowed to fail at anything. hehehe. You two make the best reaction faces to the insane things I say.
~Antrim telling Ardin to tell Misaki "good job". Our lord has no idea how much that meant to Misaki when he finally did get the message. Also Ardin hugging Misaki...apparently he is not suffering from any insanities I know of but my theory is he has been poisoned by cupid's arrow
~People coming to me to deal with issues because they recognize me as not just a scholar but as a doctor and for once doing both of those duties equally in a single event. It's weird to feel kind of respected when you've only played this character a little over a handful of times.
~Chroniclerite bonding time with Lethias. For the longest time Aemorniel thought Lethias hated her. Now she feels there is some comradeship built. When Vince was revealed as a shade during Main Mod my PC was more upset that all her Chroniclerite bonding time was possibly fake and Lethias would go back to hating her when the real one was back.
~Chroniclerite bonding in general. We few--we happy few. We band of nerds. The 4 of us were a fantastic little band together if I must say.
~Being really involved in a weekend plot that did not have me as a weekend NPC for once. It's great being on the other side of the fence. Aemorniel has never been so passionate about anything in her life before in Travance--the fake Chroniclerite thing irked her enough but the investment that went into reading the story within the journal, gathering the papers, etc. 2 sections really upset Aemorniel and brought out her Chroniclerite side really strongly--finding out what the scepter did and how it rewrote the Great Story to erase people and the other being the last few pages telling of the authors demise. I had a lot of trouble telling the people I had to keep informed what the ending said--the tears just wouldn't stop--which lead into Aemorniel just being so numbed and shocked when she witnessed Dr. Structo and the Seeker being struck down by Xia'bien. Even though Dr. Structo was brought back with the help of a very gifted healer friend, watching the Seeker appear to die was just too much. Aemorniel had no tears left to cry. Seeing people rush up to me before I had even finished walking to the inn to tell me very quickly that the Seeker wasn't dead dead because they almost knew I would be completely devastated by it made me feel really loved. If anything it deepened her desire to see this through to the end and maybe one day see the scepter restored to its rightful place in Chronicler's hands where it belongs and the Xia'bien given his due.
~Talking to the Seeker the first time. My PC was very unsure of how to go about this since he had been struck with amnesia originally when we met him. Her understanding of etiquette did no prepare her for such a situation so she took it as she would with any other new person she would meet. Hopefully it wasn't disrespectful to sit on the floor in front of him like a little kid and ask him a bajillion questions. He didn't seem to mind.
~Divine Sanctuary during Main Mod with Almat. Now I finally get why Osred would do that and Quiet Contemplation to observe the battle. SOOOOOOOO USEFUL.
~Library Mod: scholars working together to find special books on how to defeat the wards. We four scholars did rather great on that and our fighters/defenders--thank you so much we couldn't have done it without you. I will admit--it was really surprising and satisfying to see people like Lethias not even hesitate to step back when I said I had to face the Valosian Templar alone. No weapon except Eye for an Eye (thanks to the Seeker since our scroll was evil) and Divine Negation thanks to Almat. Thank you all who were ready to intercept/intercede/whatever other skills you had to take that yourself but it was handled. I think we all did great working as a team together. The books just appearing on the table as if Chronicler himself made them appear was a lot of great RP.
~Libris Infinitis dropping before us on the table out of nowhere when we destroyed the final ward and the crystal. After discussions, it was agreed I was allowed to keep it.
~Great RP sessions with Dame Mixolydia. I particularly enjoyed our discussions we had over breakfast and on the way down to Winterdark. My PC was very much flattered by your words of you being glad to be talking to the me now as opposed to the me you first met. Aemorniel worries that people still see her as Trouble and not Aemorniel. Thank you very much for the advice given throughout the event. Hopefully this will lead to a good friendship.
~Using my IG network of people to get tasks accomplished.
~Giving and receiving lessons
~PORTAL PEN! I wants it. Dr. Structo teach me your ways!
