Overall this event was AMAZING! everyone came and gave there 150%! it was awesome!

Friday
- coming right into game instead of NPCing in the dark.

- watching Pesmerga come out of a tree and then talk about death parties of mortal hunters in the woods.

- running everywhere when i hear screaming and then not getting to hit anything.

- the 1rst attempt at the tasting contest and watching Rayven run here and there by himself and then getting told to stay put when Ella Rea and I want to go to the inn cause we're freezing.

- sitting on Zahir's porch watching the men get drunk and talking about womanly things with Ella Rea then suddenly rushed inside while being attacked by spiders. Hearing that we were both hit with webs but Brother McBride blocked mine yet she was stuck outside alone. (also having my cape get stuck on the door when being shut and almost being ripped off my feet and choked because of it LOL)

- Hearing that Tobar has been taken and that he's bleeding out at the Inn. Having to be the one to bring Seamus and Collin this news. Talking to Seamus while Dr. West was knuckle deep in his brains was rather fun to RP.

-Watching Magnus act a little nuts and wanting to call Lore: Undead to see if I'd get a response yet too afraid of what the response might be.
Then having Rayven hand me Tobar's weapons saying to give them to no one and having Magnus ask to hold them, telling him no cuz Rayven told me not to, having him ask rayven to hold them and then having rayven give him permission anyways! UGH! Men!

-Hearing my husband went up AND held his own against Thomas and being proud of him for that.

-Sleeping in a cabin with three newcomers who, every time they hear an acorn drop they think something is trying to kill them and then dumb enough to want to go outside and look! Actually getting restful sleep all event was awesome!

Saturday
-enjoying the nice warm whether after freezing the night before. And Pancakes

-NPCing the Druid Faerie Kin Feast as Mistress Fawn and enjoying the wonderful food there! (seeing Vince in body glitter was a blast and Emily being adorable was so fun to be a part of!) Swearing never to NPC at night ever again due to walking hazards!

-Missing feast because i spent 4 hours of my NPC shift eating and being around food, but from what i heard i had the better feast :-P

-getting back into character and being bummed out since i missed the singing at feast only to hear a song composed by Magnus about certain members of a certain town (i.e. allimangster and magnalister and Zahir spelled with an S instead of a Z)

-being rounded up like cattle and then told to stand in a line and getting picked for each others groups. Atleast in Travance (unlike gym class) i wasn't picked last! LOL then being made to stand in the cold until all the scouts came back.

-going through a cave where i didn't get hit once was awesome. Having borrowed Rayven's cloak earlier because of the cold then having blood rain down on us and thanking Rayven sweetly with a smile on my face for letting me use his cloak (with a hood) while i watch the blood drip down his face.

-THE GROUP HUG OF HAPPINESS! that was the best group hug ever! Not being able to be hit by physical attacks was pretty awesome. Actually dealing damage to the undead and knowing what i was fighting was cool too. Fighting side by side with Rayven and Wolfguard was epic! They were both so awesome!

-getting hit with a fear, running 5 feet, having the fear reversed, going back to fighting, getting nailed with a Banshee's Wail, dropping, being brought back up, fighting some more, staying clear of the giant pissed off guy (Alok) moving really fast and throwing people then getting nailed with a paralyzing blow and laughing OOG as Rayven and Wolfguard literally pick me up and move me next to a Psion who they have no idea is dominated by Alok.

-being forced to run out of the cave and leave my husband fighting Alok and trying to get back to him. Freaking out on the way back to the Inn because i have no idea if Rayven is alive or not. Once getting back to the inn having some AWESOME RP with Wolfguard about my husband. Actually being brought to tears as i ask every party coming back from the battle if they've seen or heard word of Rayven and being pissed that the town would not pay attention. Snapping at anyone who stood in my line of sight as i watched the path. All of the RP surrounding Rayvens death was great! Having Seamus collapse at my feet after hearing of Rayven.

-Swearing revenge on all undead, especially vampires and swearing to find a teacher come morning to teach me how i can better defeat undead. Looking for Kwildar after the battle, knowing he could teach me such things, and then walking outside of the Inn to say to Seamus and everyone else out there "Umm... has anyone noticed that kwildar never made it back?" and then walking Rayven back to our cabin.

-Getting ganked by a huge group of orcs after JUST getting Rayven back through the focus and having my leg broken, dying loudly, and having Rayven knock out almost all the orcs with the help of Atrus. Waking up to see the "rescue party" which consisted of healers and casters and making a remark later on that they were the rescue party who would need to be rescued if attacked LOL.

-waking up the next morning and hunting down Sir Keilor Tuvson to teach me how to fight undead and being able to learn Cure Light Wounds from Seamus without him grease-spotting me was pretty awesome!

-arriving late for the mages guild mod to see Mal as an NPC call dispair, Pyre call cacophony and then hearing Rayven say "Awwww he's so cuddly! He thinks he's tough!" it was so hard not to laugh. Telling Mal about it OOG was just as hilarious.

I'm sure there is much more to remember about this weekend but it was just so incredibly epic! that's really all i have to say! every event i go to, they just keep topping each other! thanks everyone for making it an awesome weekend!

What an amazing event.  Everytime I think that I've seen an epic plot, the storytellers amaze me.

Before Lay-on:
-While stopping at a Wawa and waiting in line, someone grabs my shoulder and tells me to empty out my [censored] pockets.  Danny G... I hate you.

Friday:
-Trying to keep my cheerful demeanor, knowing full well that if the town or Thomas found out I was trying to play both sides, I was dead.
-Coming face-to-face with Pesmerga with no one around was truly chilling.  Judge, when you recognized me and walked away, I was certain that working with Thomas was a bad idea.
-The RP with Kwildar, Carlos, Jonathon, Kiellor, Barak, and Kathara was AMAZING.  Thank you all for really bringing life to my character and my experience this month.
-NPCing a Death Assassin was a blast... even though I couldn't see a damn thing!

Saturday:
-Playing my Goblin was a nice break from the heavy emotions of the rest of the weekend.
-Seeing Keys again!
-Saving NPC Goblins with Brik.
-Feast was delicious!  Desert was more so!
-Magnus's Ballad was made of win.
-Drinking with Zahir and co. is always an adventure in and of itself.
-Meeting some new Gypsies and seeing some old ones again (I'm looking at you, Yahtzis!).
-Main Mod was EXCELLENT!  From the entrance to the crypt to the shower of blood to the battle itself, it was chilling!

Sunday:
-Deciding, along with the Yahtzis, that Daedri needed to become a sergeant, open a club for lonely hearts, and start a band to play in said club.

Still in pain and swollen ankle is now resting upon comfy pillows...

Friday...
Getting to event early and helping set-up the "Trade Hall of Doom" was fun.  The expressions and afterwards of people's compliments made Chris Ayala very happy and made me happy to have helped him with what little I could.
Seeing Thom* getting up close to Judge's junk and being comfy with it as he prepped the flying harness.  Priceless.
Super kudos to Judge, Skimmel, Thom*, and everyone else who wrote, set-up, and ran this event.  Undead in October is generally expected at any larp... but this month was far from generic and kept everyone truly in awe.
Spraining my ankle on a path as I "escorted" Lord Pyre to see the Count... I fail.
* I am not sure how to spell Thom's name as I don't know his last and I wish to differentiate between him and the 2-3 other Tom's, Thomas', Tommy's that are here.

Saturday...
Waking up in bitter cold as the sun was rising to Antrim telling me I was killed and need to get to a healer.
Feeling bad for Mother Jarren as she had to heal me in my underwear as we shivered in the cold.
Trying to move and realising my ankle was now a grapefruit sized mass of flesh.
Learning Sever Limb from Brogan.  Yay!
Outsourcing... the new innovation of how to get things done in Travance.
After bearing a cross for the Count and carrying it to the Inn, I became Asian Jesus... I make water into rice wine, I feed the poor with fortune cookies, and I get a free ressurection, but it takes 3 days for me to go through the focus and I need to be buried in a cave first.
Sitting in the woods with Jen (Magdelena), and talking about colors and art made me happy to know that people still follow their dreams in this day and age.
Missing feast and most of the rest of Sat night due to my ankle [size=12pt]SUCKED![/size]

Sunday...
Got to video record some cool footage of RP and people in costume (none of this footage will go on YouTube or crap like that, I promise you all).
Denny's makes the best country-fried steak and eggs.
Traffic on a Sunday night, about 9 pm going into Staten Island.  WTF?
