June 2013 Highlights

Friday:
NPC Shift: I spent the entire NPC shift as an imp. Taunting people to play with me and giggling like a mad chipmunk. I had loads of fun scaring people and I think People were more intimidated and just ran away more than anything else. It's good to NPC something in just the right creepy way that make no one want to play with you.

Hearing of Anhil's and other's possession in the monastery was funny and entertaining. I hope ALicia learns her lesson in not being stupid and sticking her head in places she shouldn't. Why do I get the feeling that Anhil now owns her?

Saturday:
Lack of sleep was worth the entertainment I received the night before.

Had a blast at one of the lower encounters. Helped with a ritual. Fought an AWESOME demon Knight. Watched as Victok the Wild mage went a wee unhinged and attacked us (Well Grimkill, I just happened to be in range as I went for my arrows). Caldor's reaction was fairly priceless. This one was tons of fun and the NPCs for that shift were of course crazy entertaining.
Had a party! Silly hats! Food! Fun! To the people who were mad about the hats.. Don't hate because we had all the fun and food. Went to the tower mod in hats. IT was our last time, but we had tons of fun as that Demon KNight came to say hi. I think he was tired of us archers though and he spent his last breath trying to kill us all. Finding out that the second level was open to us, was a nice thing to encounter!

Feast was Feastie. It's always nice to hear people gossip and interact during feast. The bardic entertainment was also very enjoyable.

Main Mod: There is something nice about having a healing tent and getting to protect it. AGAIN I was completely blind at main mod. I hope we get the lights promised for next main mod so I know what the heck I am shooting at. This one was a lot of fun and I felt more useful protecting the healers.

Having tons of nice conversations with other PCs. This event everyone seemed to be at their most social. Was nice to meet new people and get better acquainted with some of the other players.

Going back to the monastery to see some big pow wow meeting.. Leaving said meeting. Coming back to the monastery to hear about MORE possessions. Lots of possessions this time in Travence. I think I am going to invest my build into not getting possessed. (Okay I know that is not plausible). Hearing that Gideon died.

Sunday
So much gossip about the night before. Getting to listen to it all. "Helping" with a Chaos orb. Having to warn Gideon about Victor subtly.. by waving my hands and shaking my head no behind Victor and then trying to act nonchalant when Victor turns around to look at me. Going into the abyss to get my butt kicked. Wishing there were more places to run and trying to hold a line. Having one guy single me out and chase me across the grass for 5 minutes straight. I don't want to become demon pie.

Relaxing while Caldor got his lesson.

Doing final clean-up and just enjoying myself talking to people.

Coming home and realizing I have HUGE yellow bug bites everywhere. I am beginning to believe Deet does not work. All the itchies!

And so begins the legend of Jack Thorn, Woodland Strider!

My game was fantastic. Completely fantastic.

- Zellara returns!

- The Gilded Thrush debuts!

- Sorcery!

- Drama!

- More Sorcery!

- Portal Diving Madness!

- Valos!

Thank you Steve Oros, and everyone involved in the abyss diving. Especially Magnus. Dammit, Magnus...

That was an amazing first game for me.

It was great getting into Travance. I made a new friend (literally. I befriended a wolf and painfully watched her get forced away from me), got to know many new people, especially Morthos the Halfling Warrior and Alister the human ranger, along with Aella, Caldor Eirson, Krom, Goggs, the High Admiral, Sir Gideon, the Baroness, and the Grumbleguss dwarves. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Friday Night: It was a shocking day. I was attacked by skeletons as well as a necromancer (i think), after recently crossing the rift. After successfully defeating the Necromancer, I found on him a letter addressed to the Baroness. Delivering it to Sir Cinder was interesting, especially coming to terms with my own vengeance and learning fully about paladins and the branded. The portal was terrifying, I mostly just hid back.

Saturday: Wow Magnus, just wow. I watched him eat the essence of a dust devil. Literally consuming every bit of the essence. It was vanquished and it left him with a little indigestion.
The mission with the White sorceress and the other low seasons people was amazing. It let me know the full extent of my abilities. And seeing Viktor with Caldor after the surge was remarkable. I now know the power as well as the stubbornness of the Guilded Thrush.
The Inverted tower was amazing. Seeing a full force of people wearing party hats was amazing, along with the encounter with the demon on the roof. I fought a demonknight I saw when I was helping the White Sorceress. We both had a grudge for each other. The Itching Powder saved my life.
I found my usefulness protecting the healers during the main mod. I saved lives along with ending a few.

Sunday was interesting, especially seeing a couple bunk mates die before my very eyes.

In Conclusion, this was amazing. I have nothing more to say besides just wow.

A great game!

Matt physically ate an item card to end a mod. No words.

Sam, Alex, and Vince talking about how much Cog love there is going around.

The best one-sided conversation I've ever had with Philadin.

Demonically possessed Moiyra and all the RP that came with it.

All of the politics.

Did you know that you must eat scrapple to learn sorcery?

This event was amazing! Here are my highlights in no particular order.

-Demons....so many demons and Ava still hasn't learned not to try and beat them mentally. Gained a few inanities from that including mild phobia of demons... that will definitely be interesting in the future.

- Talks with Angelina...Ava getting annoyed but trying to hide it even though she knew Angelina could feel it. Also Love is weakness is only the tip of the iceberg which may or may not be explored later. Also trying to prove to Angelina that it's foolish to love everyone also met in a stalemate of disagreement, perhaps one day one of them will change how they feel on the subject.

- Zelretch helping Ava walk around when her nervous leg was going on. It only proves that she had managed to worm her way into his heart finally.

-Talks with Angelina, Wormwood, Jade and other chaos warrior whose name I keep forgetting

-Saving said nameless chaos warrior from his perhaps stupidity in jail with possessed Anhil

-Also poking said Anhil with her sword.

-The large amount of demons who were unsure whether or not they liked Ava based solely on her makeup was astounding.

-Being mistaken for a Demon by Jonas Kane only to have the town members to be like "Nah that's just Ava"

-Wormwood rending Zelretch's Arm and punching him in the face for punching Ava after they were released from their imprisonment. In Zelretch's defense it was her fault they got imprisoned since she didn't run from a tier 3 demon. However Wormwood's Actions only contributed to the horrible confusion that is Ava's mind on the subject of Wormwood. Kudos to Alex for once again throwing me for a loop that left me a bit speechless.

-Talking to Jame's Imp eating demon was great. Ava and Zelretch's conversation with him was great. He found a demon he couldn't eat and asked us not to tell the other demons because he would be embarrassed. Also giving most of her money to him was also worth it.

- Being "lectured" by Takouri for bad mouthing Ostcliff, the land she was a part of. Apparently Honesty isn't appreciated.

-So many times randomly over the event that Ava had to hold herself back from either insulting or assaulting someone for something they said.

-On Saturday after showing and not putting makeup back on because it was too muggy and the large amount of people who said they didn't recognize Ava without it. Also seeing a large amount of people who then had their faces painted.

- Being chaotically altered more than any chaos warrior should ever be ever. I must admit it's more rewarding in that instance to be put down by fellow townspeople rather than NPC's. They all took it well too

I am desperately going to try and make it to next KR because I don't thik I can live without it!
