Week in the Life (WiTL) 2016 Highlights!

I had a blast this week, and I hope you all did too! I played Midori, the Khitanese cherry tree dryad. These are some of my hilights in no particular order!

Bonding with Voo over tea, bubbles, and backstory

Meeting the Glamour Tree

Making sandwiches with Chet

Being invited to breakfast at 2 different places and running back and forth between them for food

Cookie mass with Templar Aldric

Blowing bubbles and then chasing them

Chasing a butterfly

When Midori used her "mean people whistle" against the Londwynian merchant lady, and then refused to leave until one of her body guards asked nicely.

The memorial for Mercy and the events that followed that made Midori cry.

Finding someone's camp and leaving a note for him.

Being assigned to protect Clytie, and then the Baron during main mod. "I got NINE of them!"

The ritual to reawaken Corsair

Midori's new pet!

I forgot an important thank you. Mar, as Ilana, is always willing to take the time to fill Nostarion and Faila in on what has been happening in Travance (usually half way through an event). From an OOG perspective, this is hugely appreciated, because we often don't show up until Saturday and between the shorter period of time to get in our PC's head space and given the fact that new things have occurred since lay-on, it can be a little funky for immersion. So I just wanted to tell Mar a big thanks!

Omg how could I forget after playing this game for 15 years, finally getting to sit at the barons table for feast

As I was sick for a large portion of game (though hiding it well), sleep robbed me of unhad fun. But highlights were made all the same.

-Talking with Nesterin about an important promise.
-Scavenging food from the Kaledonia Statehouse (you guys are awesome and I will follow your lead on sharing food with the destitute and hungry)
-Kardin and Chet's miniseries "On the Search for Unicorns"
-Meeting Silas Crone and being such an innocent pup that it took Kardin about 10 minutes to realize that horrible innuendos were being made.
-(Un?)sucessfully trying to blend in with the Londwyns during tea time in the Pendarvin tent. With an accent this solid there's no way they suspect a thing!
-Oren's lesson on the proper housing and care of a Pony.
-Shouting "OH NO IT'S XUALLA!" and sending Wellington Wellington Wellington XIV of Glangsdale fleeing before fainting unconscious, thus continuing the proud Armister tradition of performing potentially criminally offensive levels of noble interactions.
-Kardin's assigned readings from the book "How to Make Noble Friends and Influence People" by Magistrate Bob
-Holy hell, so happy about Magistrate Bob by the way. (Go Ben Go!)
-Being held personally responsible by Fenri for the safety of my Quinarian charges during main mod, and realizing that with a Cavalier, a Bounty Hunter, and an Alchemist, a Northman Ranger was technically the most able healer present.
-S'mores and shirt ripping with Marcus, as well as all the hugs in the world!
-Properly meeting Lilith and laughing a lot with her and Fenri regarding the greatest skill of all, making everyone in a 5 mile radius absolutely 110% done with everything.
-Piano why do you cause me such pain?! All I want to do is play you in the proper key.
-UNDEAD SWARMING FROM ALL SIDES? GEE ASTOR, MAYBE NOW IS NOT THE BEST TIME TO LEARN MORE ABOUT PSYCHOANALYSIS.
-Greer and Caius really coming through on the battlefield this month. Progress was surely made on that shield wall and don't think no one recognized that. Held the line against some particularly aggressive monsters and you have Kardin's respect for that.
-Introducing Caius to the Power of Nope. We'll make a proper Cavalier out of you yet!
-Chatting with Argyle about mistakes made and paths walked, but also how little is really stops us from moving on. Anytime we interact, Kardin always has a lot to think about after. This time was no exception.
-FEAST WAS GOOD BUT I NEEDED MORE MEEEEEEEEEAT! Cheesy potatoes were the bomb though.
-Kardin's brief interacts with Sebastian are interesting and need to happen more. Nuff said.
-Getting along with Sir Pluvious at Light Mass. Shoulder bumps of Alliance were had.
-Speaking with Chenjing and Arradir about the loss of a great Witch Hunter and ally and putting the death in perspective just in time for Lorelai to be resurrected and everything to be fine again (YAY!)
-Allyce's borderline sociopathic Bounty Hunter lesson to a now permanently scarred (but newly trained) Maer.
-Being asked by TWO people to make them armor after seeing my hand crafted gear!
-Hanging out with the folks from Ostcliff and helping make a Kanas/Kardin sized noose.
-Collecting flowers to apologize to Brigitta then being grilled by Wulfgar after a hilarious misunderstanding regarding Clytie and the flowers.
-Shield bashing Kanas repeatedly during a sparring match. Which someone possibly indicated that Kardin has untapped arcane powers because he shouldn't have been able to do that.
-This entire conversation in all its glory
"DURR, DURR, DURR I'M KANAS I FIGHT WITH TWO SWORDS AND SPIN LIKE A FAIRY WOOSH WOOSH WOOSH."
"WELL I'M KARDIN. LOOK AT ME I'VE GOT A SHIELD DUH DUH DUH"

Just everything in general was wonderful and I can't wait to see you all later when I'm not down with the sickness.

HEY HEY!
He did REALLY well! And he got over it! He didnt even have nightmares over it! I asked the next morning like a good teacher. And he completely, absolutely, positively was firm in his decision that not only did he WANT to learn Bounty Hunter after that but he wanted ME for his teacher.


Be nice hahahahaha
