well...they came to snuff the Raider...but he didn't die...at least this time.

Gideon paid the ultimate compliment to Donald: "That's why you're a smart warrior and not a dumbfuck with a sword." That made my event right there, as I wasn't terribly engaged in much after the death of the horrible scunner Zatar Kane until tower.

Having a respawned Brotherhood Of The Shadows NPC run right by me within arms reach. Nighttime Stealth Level: MACV-SOG- because Ninjas are over rated.

Tower: I apparently am the Travancian Weedwacker after cutting so many roots. Maybe people might realize that the short Celt actually has some wisdom in him.

Carrying Kitt back from the tower, and singing "Donald Where's Your Trousers?" Much hilarity.

Soul searching. all the soul searching. Kinda nice to do something not involving beating the crap out of things and visiting the monastery without getting dropped.

that's all I have. Until Next time: Wear Your Seatbelt, Don't Play With Matches, and Look Both Ways When Crossing The Street.

Wow, this event was probably my most productive one yet, despite only being there for 6-7ish hours.

Immediately upon arrival Saturday, I started talking to Haroldson about OOG life while trading for goods to then trade for lifestyle build. I never knew he was a national chess champion back in his day...did you?

Being bored with no friends and nothing to do, so I wandered off away from the inn and found myself on the complete other side of the game's property! I ended up spying on some voices I heard in a tent nearby. First time I actually used hide in shadows and, by the look of the guy's face (he turned around and saw me OOG next to the tent after stepping out for a pee), they had absolutely no idea I was even there. I was eventually caught, and learned I was spying on a "priest of Glomm." I still have no idea who that is, but he looked evil so I suppose I should be glad he let me go with no penalties (after a short talk, of course). Awesome RPing the whole time as well.

Tower mod. I love how much more difficult it is now that they've added traps (both visible and hidden) as well as enemies, so those combat-utility characters that have all those detection and rogue-like skills can actually use them and be actually useful to the group, instead of just being stuck in the back while the heavy hitters kill all the enemies. I don't know who runs the tower mod, but keep it up!

Learning athletic feat from Winks. I was picked up by Grimm and held upside down...and had to contort myself into all sorts of PAINFUL positions from there. Then I was thrown TWICE and landed on my butt both times, all with an amused crowd watching. Pretty much everything was sore afterwards, but it was worth it!

FINALLY GETTING THE GOLD I DESERVE. That is all.

Oh, and let's not forget self-teaching ignore poison. Now nobody will be able to interrupt my feast with a poisoned drink! Yay! :D

All n' all a great event and, while I might not be able to return for a couple months, I look forward to the event where I do return with great anticipation!

Until next time,

Well where to start...
Friday escorting blood tide and helping remove the brother hood of shadows from this world and almost having to defend against angels near the monastery.
Fighting Duncan while he was under litanies of doom and guarding focus for a good amount of time

Saturday started with npc shift
Lesson for low levels don't leave the tent when enemies are outside looking for people to fight (sorry Matt)
New player area aka mushroom mod made sure newer players had a blast and enjoyed the goblin RP between a goblin gambler and goblin npcs. Scared all of them by yelling beserker rage at one point to scatter the new players

Tower was uneventful for me being entwined in vines for most of it

Main mod had Myself working on organizing the lower level players to figure out how to stop something. Ended up helping dragging several people out but best one was makin it 4 steps with Duncan in crit before getting dropped myself

Sunday
Bran and I basicly brawling in beserker rage lesson so many outsiders asking about a problem happening... Later he taught me resilience too by having himself, Seamus, and Gideon helping
Then before layoff a few Northmen having barbarian "fun time" in 2v1 combat with healers just throwing points out and keeping it lasting longer and longer

Solid block of RP time as Blade.

It is weird having been so close to everything going on, but Blade being so far away. The strangest moment was after the event someone saying to me, "Who's Blade?". Looks like I need to get my reputation back. At least I got to have a nice cigar, warn people about how magic is evil, walk away when people started talking too much about it, go for a nice walk, and nearly get dropped by acid bombs. :-)

Looking forward to helping to put together next event, but looking even more forward to the winter festival and January. Going to have to get some more work... been out of town too long.

Well it was my first event I went with my friend Nic (Cael Tanwyn). I missed the new player intro friday night but found a tent full of hookah and got the lay of the land from there. Saturday morning we met Val and the Captain and the four of us watched each others backs through mushroom hunting, tower diving, and main mod (HOW FREAKING TERRIFYING WAS MAIN MOD?!?) Fighting alongside Goliath during main mod through all of the confusion was particularly memorable. He knew how to take charge and I doubt we would have really made it out of there without him rallying us all together. Also meeting Alexander during the tower mod and learning all about business and gypsy tradition was very enlightening.

Easily my two biggest highlights were when Nic and I faced down a group of 6 trolls by ourselves as we were changing to head to npc. With a little bit of b/s and some wit we made it out alive. And then the legendary npc shift. If you heard chanting on Saturday night for over an hour that was us. Sorry not sorry for keeping you up. What was supposed to be a quick and easy 20 min mook roleplay mod turned into over an hour of ridiculous chanting, dancing, and two pcs being sacrificed to bring about an early winter on the steps of the Pendarvin state house. "We're literally murdering people"

I had a huge blast. I want to thank all the marshals, cooks, npcs, and people that helped make this weekend happen. I can't wait to come back in January. Sorry I had to take off early on Sunday and didn't really get to say bye to all of you incredible people. I don't have space to talk about all of the fun adventures and great people I met this weekend.

Kudos to Joe Bondi and MaryBeth for all the work they put into Main Mod, and letting me play an important role! I absolutely loved the scene and all the time I got to spend with the rest of the crew. It was great to hear peoples' reactions while we performed and later on when I was back as my PC, especially the compliments on both how well we did and how creepy we were. Oh, and you should've seen the look on MaryBeth's face when we told her we were going outside to rehearse! Jen, Crystal, and Lauren, I had a blast with you guys. Thank you so much!

NPCing with Matt M. and Jen S. late Friday night. You guys make a great team.

Traveling to alternate realities with Verrill LeBastion, including one reality in which Goggins had an army. Mmhmm.

Having a talk with Eevie and accidentally making her OOG double over with laughter.

Lunch at Market Faire from Sylus Crone/Goose. Both getting to have one of his sandwiches and sharing one with Wylla.

Meeting "Creepy Bard" and enjoying his performances. Walking with him and Trent late at night, getting asked our names by Grimkjell and the good Lieutenant reciting a law about giving an actual name.

Singing lessons from Trent. I'm already noticing a difference!

Bloody Stump nonsense with the regulars.

Stupid o'clock. Wow! It was late at night, of course, and I was with Tsoli in the kitchen. There was a fly on the counter, so I took off one of my hearth gloves and swat it.

"If anyone told you that Nalick Underhill would never hurt a fly, they lied to you."

Sharing puns and jokes with Sindarion and Tsoli, among others. "I'm a frayed knot."

Discovering that all the cake from Feast was gone, but there was still topping and plenty of bread. Combining the two and encouraging others to do the same.

Yoshimatsu making a bit of garlic bread. General silliness.

Lord Gideon ordering someone to stop hitting someone else with a loaf of bread.

Heading down to the Mage's Guild very late Friday night with Tari and Billiam.

Escorting Rowan down to the Mage's Guild late Saturday night. It's what a friend would do. The "f-ton" of chocolate I received didn't hurt either.

Being a part of Croi's 'Turning Tide' lesson on Sunday. There were so many people involved, and it was fun.

Getting myself into a bit of drama involving Arkelian and Tessa. Whoops!

A great weekend.
