December 2015 highlights

I decided that I'll bite and write up my own version of this Event's highlights.

I'll start off by saying that it's great to come back. I was only gone a couple of months...Like usual...But still, being back is nice.

-Black Bird tending with Wilinde to the...Only six (or so) customers we had all event. Freakin' Null, you know how much money that booze costs?
-"Hmm...Inn's pretty quiet, lemme check what's going on." *Everyone's fled the Null, but the Null are still in the Inn* *Null drop me to 0 and toss me around like a freakin ragdoll* (ProTip: Never go with curtain number one...Or two).
-Father Paul to the rescue!
-*Insert Wilende's first coffee fail here*
-We survive and book it back to the Black Bird. I decide to harbor refugees for some stupid freakin reason.
-Expel from Black Bird doesn't work on the glowing bastards...Good thing Wilinde knows how to OOG Hide In Shadows, otherwise this highlight reel would be just a reel.
-Coffee fail round two. I came back with a burnt hand a two empty cups, Wilinde managed to not spill all of hers.
-I know! We'll hide in the rogue den! Round one in the den works. Round two...Heh. Sorry for giving my refugees the idea that I was going to protect you...Maybe next time you won't TRUST THE GODDAMN ASSASSIN! On the bright side...I survived.
-EVERYONE GET THE HELL OUT OF THE BLACK BIRD! "What do we do?" SCATTER! THAT'S WHAT!
-Wilinde and I decide to group with others who were on the run. They take a rest stop in the inn where the most amazing and unexpected thing happens....The goddamn null show up! Who woulda thunk!? Time to play dead under a table for twenty minutes.
-Decide to get Wilinde safely to her bunk in the barn so she can sleep, I return to the BB where I turn all of the lights off and barricade the door. Time to practice holding my breath while simultaneously sleeping.

SLEEP!

-Saturday morning wake-up NPC shift!
-Undead assassin! Stupid undead + Smart Assassin = Stupid Undead Assassin. Now initiate Role-play!
-DARK PALLY REECE IS BEST REECE!
-Fighting Sir Daniel is freakin fun! 10/10 would get my ass whopped again.
-Sir Daniel chops off Dark Pally Reece's limbs, entwines him with vines and then leaves him somewhere, completely forgetting that he was taking a prisoner. I get taken out of the vines...And Then left...Again. Welp...I guess I'll mess with Liz Reese until she kills me.
-She didn't kill me. Close...No Cigar.
-DEATH BY WORMWOOD! I now know what it's like to be Klarington Everest, I think.

I'm shady stabby guy again!

-Nature walks with Wilinde. She found currency from a different universe.
-"Hey Wilinde...Wanna play drunk chess?" "Fugg yeeeeaaahhh."
-I won...But we ended up getting drunk after chess...Which sucked.
-We stumble around the inn in our drunken glory. I find a hammer laying around and pretend to hit her with it...It's a good time.
-We stumble out of the Inn to go be drunk somewhere else...She has the hammer.
-Bank trip! (Poor Danielle) "WE'RE HAMMERED!!!"
-Back to the inn where Sir Pluvious...I mean...The sober fairy, cures our drunkness.
-Get wasted again during feast, anyway.
-OH MY GOD FEAST!!! THE FOOD! THE POWER! THE GLORY! THE FREAKIN PIE!!!
-DRUNKEN SHOTGUN WEDDING courtesy of Edwin Haroldson during feast clean up...Technically...You all were there.

SLEEP AGAIN!

-Leave at ten cuz I had to work.

AWESOME EVENT GUYS! Let's go again! Let's go again!!

This is gonna be a bit short:

1. Learning that no one follows orders in Travance....how do you people organize into a fighting unit again? Oh, you charge as an angry mob, go it!

2. Getting to play a crockety old woman, best statements I've ever made:
Player: "You're really crockety."
Old Woman: "I'm old and crockety, angsty lady set in her racist ways and if you don't like it you can bite the winklest part of my ass."

Player: "I gave you a straight answer."
Old Woman: "You gave me a semi-straight answer pointy-ear."
Players: *Giggles Giggles Giggles*

3. Doing everything possible to not get lost in the woods, can someone get the moon to cooperate next time and be full? I mean it was fun but wow, we literally walked up right behind a bunch of the null and just followed them about 15 feet back because no one could see us. Every so often we'd miss step and they would look around, we'd duck down and then continue following when they decided it was the wind, that or throw a small rock off in the distance to make them head that way.

I almost forgot a very important highlight of the event. Friday night late when we have a stage 2 hypothermia case in the manor in walks the Nulls purple in front. I don't know who you are but your response warmed my heart when I looked up and said no. Medical Hold stage two hypothermia case in treatment here. When you said ok thanks we won't be back you made me love you so much because we could get right back to it and knowvwe would have no more plot interruptions.

That player stayed with us right there after that. I just want to just thank you so much for your professionalism.

OH MAN I ALMOST FORGOT GETTING HAMMERED!!!

So yeah, I found a hammer. KEEVY! WE'RE HAMMERED! GET IT? GET... IT?

One thing I wanna add. Imrihil's WIllpower lessons. He speaks with me a bit, then later on, he walks up on me and hands me a chocolate chip cookie. "Find me in 20 minutes." I passed with flying colors and the cookie was awesome.

Fair Warning: I said the exact same thing after my first event.
