May Event Highlights

Highlights
-Low-level final mod was awesome. Fun with Balthir and Azriel afterwards...great role-playing
-Mother Rosa, Sorel and the Demon swords
-Great seeing alot of new people, it makes it look like I've been here that much longer
-Rubious and the Rubicon...amazing...great role-playing, my new favorite Travanceian

Lowlights
-Portals with 20th level requirements...WTF?

First off I wanted to say that everyone was amazing. This was my first KR event, and my first LARP experience so I had no idea what to expect.

Highlights:
Friday:
-Surprising a bandit with my dagger when he thought I was unarmed and ready to hand over my coins on our way into town. (thanks for making sure I got my sword back btw!)
-Baoyu's reunion with his uncle after 2 years of searching for him, and meeting the very colorful McBanes shortly thereafter.
-Getting to use blind-fight against more bandits on my first(second?) mod, unsure of its usefulness when originally deciding to take it....
-Getting captured by the second group of bandits, escaping thanks to the Khitan Physician, and carrying an unconscious Shamus(?) away from the encounter with no idea who he was at the time. The Rain adding an amazing amount of atmosphere to the entire experience.

Saturday:
-Many great scenes at the tea house during the morning; Meeting Qwan Lu and Jonas Cain, sharing our culture with different groups of celts, and watching a number of interesting parties gather.
-Solving the Cryptogram that was recovered from the Night Blade chest the night before. (Which took a solid hour since I only had half of the translation. Still great fun, lol.)
-The group retreat from lizardfolk on saturday afternoon. Ok, so we might have been able to take them, but that was more fun.
-NPCing one of the 3 ambassadors sent to assassinate the count after having Baoyu do so much to figure out the Nightblade plot.
-Alerting the rest of Cabin McBane to our skeletal attackers and battling by firelight with Collin kicking butt in red one piece pajamas. Then watching Ronna save the entire cabin with her wield faith.

Sunday
-Surviving KR

Lowlights
-Taking a boffer to the face really hard. It was bound to happen...
-ok, mainly just taking a boffer to the face.
-Midday saturday seemed a bit dry on Mods.

Overall: excellent weekend and returning in june.

I caught a single Lizardkin with roots

Haha I believe that was me. I was caught like that by two seperate people

Good spell, if you dont need the person dead so quickly
Still it was nice to get to throw the one spell packet the whole weekend at a lizardkin
It was cool seeing some new players really working at NPCing, need to get the older players doing that the whole weekend, ha

Awesome weekend fantastic role play with everyone. I am so happy people are loving the tea shop ideal. Both IG and OOG. great role play in and around the shop. Ming wheat to battle this weekend and I guess because he is a big red silk dressed guy people turned to him during the attack as one of the leader's so he stepped up and with the Mc banes took down the enemy forces.

Indeed. During my NPC shift I fought as hard as I could. It was rewarding to see everyone working up a sweat while fighting instead of hanging around the Inn all day!
