May 2017 Highlights!!

8 years 8 months ago - 8 years 8 months ago #146487 by Ilana Darkwood (Ilana_Darkwood)
-While it was a slow roll, once I realized Keola had a 'niche' that could work in plot, I actually had fun (and made a new friend in a Quinarian too which was unexpected because Keola is so bad at friends usually. Grumpy Dwarf Elf saved the day in the Mountain Trails)

-Hanging out with Faeries. Myris being mistaken for an Air court princess because she's just that pretty.

-Being the best assistant to a bunch of folks :D

-Reading to George the Mage's Guild charter and quizzing him on it.

-Accidentally meeting Agaura and making that quickly not my problem.

-Ilana getting all the help with removing another curse in her lands. Poor Maer though >.o' Just a few more to go!

-No one suspects the dragonfly of *death* (How precious everyone thought my totem form was amused the hell out of me. I'm glad I finally got to use it super effectively)

-Cinnamon helping others be clever because she's a tricky little Halfling-brained Homunculus.

What a damp event....

Kudos to Tori for her debut- I had very little involvement in this month's plot/story (despite being friends with many of them, Not a witch-hunter or a mage) but I heard some very good things. I look forward to more good stories and plot

Despite the weather, there was some good fun to be had and more than a little excellent RP.

Pre-Event stuff though..... Whoa. When Alex asked me to give her away, you could have floored me with a breeze from a feather. So proud of the person you have evolved into as opposed to the young woman I met three years ago... and I know you two will be fine. Just remember to never sleep in the same bed angry. :)

Friday Evening (pre-rain)

Excellent walk and talks with Cinder- politics, the state of his Kin and so many other things. Some really heavy conversation that was to be finished in the morning.... which I learned later on would not happen.

Saturday....

Brazen Mass. Well attended despite the rain... and the Message of Unity continues. "We all stand together or we will surely hang separately...

Lupoa later on and Agura's party crashing. Well shit....

A very serious discussion with Amalthea about a serious subject.

A counsel of Kanas and the options of the paths before him.

Assisting Aki with attempting to create a flowing like sand fighter in Grim. Very solid work but like everything a Brazenite views, room for improvement. :)

Blood Spirits Mod. A job is a job and the Contract is the Contract. A call to parlay and I meet with the NPC Merc Leader. A few terse words then the following:

"We are here to facilitate a meeting. Not death. The key to stopping Icarus is here."
"NO! You bring Death here.... go back."
"There are bigger problems than the past and we need get this done."
"GO BACK OR WE WILL KILL YOU"
"There does not need to be any fighting.."
"PREPARE YOURSELVES"
A sigh. "Very well... but your death and the defeat or your men falls on your head...."
"WE WILL SEE WHO DIES"

Walk back to the group. "Their leader is rather insistent on refusing to be reasonable despite my attempt to tell him fighting isn't necessary. On his head it is then. Gloves are off.... and Damian, he's yours."

It went poorly for them... but I did at least get to see what a Legionnaire Vanguard would look like in a fight when done right. Damn impressive- this fight went longer than it could have otherwise.

Results and repercussions remain to be determined.

Feast was excellent....

More excellent RP then it was to the camp to change socks.... and decide to stay down there. I was beat with being in the rain all day. :P

Sunday was more good RP in spots and a rapid cleanup to beat the weather.

If I remember more, I'll post later!

See everyone for Week in the Life!!

I completely forgot to mention something. Blue (kestral) gives me some glowey stuff for my face to better rp having metric butt loads of positive energy. So thank you! After main mod I got to double up on that stuff by rping I was peeling my own skin off in the inn while I was peeling it off my face and hands. Got to freak somebody out which was fun.

Two of my best buds are married!!! Congratulations Forest and Alex Dugan! <3 I'm glad the weather held out long enough to let you guys have a beautiful wedding. Much love.

Friday night... treed by a bunch of wolves. How embarrassing. Thank-you to Sebastien and Damien for showing up and saving the cat in the tree, lol!

Nemuth: I heard you when you were up in that tree, before.
Swyft: Why didn't you come over, then?
Nemuth: What good would I do you while bleeding on the floor?
Swyft: Fair enough.

Faeries are badass. It was wrecked o' clock up in that inn.

Gaia showed up to Caldor's mass. How cool is that?

The return of Rupert and his surprising ability to appear and disappear for like, hours at a time. Except for that last time he was ballsy enough to go into the empty bar. By then I was hunting him like I was a feral creature. A really pissed off feral creature...


Saturday morning was my everything, dude. Michaela. You fierce queen, you. How can I ever describe what it felt like to have the last chapter of book one completed for Swyft? O.M.F.G.
I cannot even begin to give you the accolades you deserve both from how well you played the role of Aguara and how well your actions suited exactly what Swyft's crazy story arc needed.
You were PHENOMENAL. And I was so completely surprised by it, so much so that I still had on my hot pink sneakers from the kitchen when I first met you. LMAO

Thank-you so much for allowing that experience to happen. I wish I hadn't been so stunned the whole time, I had so much more I could have asked! Damn it, nerves! It was a pleasure to walk, talk and hold a drega'fabulous umbrella over us both in the unrelenting rain. And I cannot tell you how overjoyed I was (IG and OOG honestly lol) Aguara gave Swyft permission to be fabulous in Her name.
Holy sh--.
#@@#$(*@&#$(
EEEEEEEEE
<3
Thank-you.


Jed's Lupoa and the arrival of Aguara to it really kicked the entire scene into hyperdrive, inciting impassioned sermons about the utter necessity of the church to fight for their Gods together, because if the gods disappear there won't be anything left to even fight for. I wish I could recall Jed's entire speech, it was brilliant and I can't possibly do it justice with paraphrasing.
His personal moment with Aguara set my hair on end. The words the both of them exchanged about Swyft. :o I was (and still am) rendered speechless.

Totes almost died in the woods to fire fairy fury. Like.... really really close to death. Wasn't thrilled. Damn rain!


Fairy mod to deal with the fire prince was fought one handed because I refused to get wet. Drega'fabulous! Clytie you're a friggin' badass, seriously. Almost lost Black Tree because of shade... Great scene with Nalick there as we stood in the road after witnessng Rachael's witch hunter put her into her last minute of her death count with a warning that she'd kill us if we healed her. And then we healed her. So... that was a fun time, watching our backs all event, lol.


Being shady queens with Nemuth and Zelretch, talking about braiding hair into bathmats and
that friggin' fan, lol. *thworp*


Lauren nuuuuuuuuu. Stop talking to me as Eden, you madwoman. I'm gonna' accidentally cause an apocalypse! Now I have to play hide and seek when both you and Heimdall are around...


Pike/Daniella! You were just as cute as a button! Swyft loved her some Pike!


Chimera and I had fun playing twins with our matching hoods and sizes after feast. Heh.
Also the hilarity of sitting across from her at the table only to be told that Zelretch had put alchemical adhesive there and the look on his face and mine when he saw me. It was suggested I should change all the labels on his alchemy as vengeance. I just might. Because this makes like, the seventh time...


Defying Gravity with Amalthea at main mod where we fought the hardest things with the lowest level players, lmao!!!! Never a dull moment!

Swyft: (After hearing mythic lances and slays for days) So Bob... what we do when we're completely outclassed?

Utgaard was my go-to man for critically wounded guys. I don't know what I'd have done without him. Amalthea, my dudette. You. Rock. It was an honor to emp your critical. <3
Unlimited. Together we're... unlimited....


Edgelord cat fight with Ven. <3 <3 <3 You knew this day would come!

Mini-cat fight with Jonas, too! <3

Hiding with Antignua (Wow I probably spelled that so wrong) while listening to Zelretch get lectured by Cinder and Kanas after their scuffle. Then feral catting around Gaia in distrust.


Watching Zelretch be a complete bastard to the Szechuan Sauce Guy and his dogs... lmao
He has gone mad with alchemical adhesive power, it seems...


The morning visit to Rupert while he was still asleep. ^.^

Squaring up with Argyle for his racism and then being blamed for a cup being knocked over five feet away from us.

I'm sure I'm forgetting awesome things. Love you all, thanks for making KR such a festival of shenanigans! Thanks to Billy and the kitchen crew for the breakfast shift and being so on top of everything that I felt guilty about not doing more! <3 <3 <3

See you all soon!

Definitely quite the interesting, unexpected, and amazing event for me!

>Arrived on site around 1:30am Friday morning so as to help with preparations all day Friday (Congrats again Forest and Alex!), and was met by a wild Nalick and Peaches- who were in amazing spirits and convinced me I'm far funnier than I actually am.

>Enjoyed helping various folks set up for both the wedding and the event itself in various locations. Always nice to have your inner interior decorator skills appreciated ^_^.

>The wedding reception /and/ ceremony were both stellar and I was very happy to have been able to attend it all.

>Running around like a headless chicken Friday before lay-on trying to get my character redone and squared away... Thanks for being patient and understanding with my indecisiveness, Nalick!

>First event as my new character and it started with a definite bang. Taking what I thought I knew about a certain race and tossing it onto its side, then its head, then its ass... then flipping it upside down completely. Culminating in an amazing dialogue with Cinder, audienced by Duncan and Tari.

>Seeing Duncan have issues communicating with one of the bewitched wolves as he tries to tell it to sit- and I step in and force it to sit. Turning to the group saying "See? You just need to use the right tone of voice." Then turning back to face the wolf and barely blocking an attack from it to the laughter of others.

>Giving sword lessons both in use and history to Keola, as well as making a new friend in both her and Clytie (thanks for the acid trip. Last time I touch strange wooden objects...no it isn't).

>Being convinced I should attend the Earth Trials. I had no intention of going, but I wasn't tired yet and so many people were going I figured I'd at least get a nice show. Followed by basically accidentally fumbling my way haphazardly through all three trials, and walking back to my tent in a state of shock and joy.

>I intended to keep my success in the trials as hidden as possible- turns out Avalon had other plans and people addressed me as such and I was so confused!

>Great time trying to sell my wares from Grumpy Dwarf Forge in character a majority of Saturday afternoon. Love to see people smile and laugh and see their eyes widen as they heft a weapon I've made and comment on the stability and lightness. Some even called it pure witchcraft.

>Being tossed around in a whirlwind of magic and performance enhancing potions before main mod, before being pulled aside by Tari and told "Two things. One; You need to go talk to so-and-so. Two; Cinder is dead..." Aaaaand all the confusion and awe and fear and excitement fading as my eyes grew wide and jaw grew slack.

>Coming back from main mod at demanding a private audience with King Avalon where I threw his sword at him and began to yell at him, which he took calmly. Then responded actually getting more heated than I'd seen him talk all weekend. Was some A+ roleplay from him and amazing dialogue and definitely gave me much to think on.

>Getting to meet the Queens of Air and Water (sadly never spoke to Fire :( ) and giving them fun personal little titles they seemed to enjoy.

>12-4am NPC shift was hell on my body, running off 2 hours of sleep- but the jokes.. lord the jokes. We should all fear the impending undead gorilla threat looming right at our doorstep. Also - Yipee-kai-yay~

>Wandering Sunday and sharing my imported Quinarian Spring Tea with anyone I could, but seeking out two individuals in particular to share it with was a very nice, casual chance to wind down from the weekends events.

So, thank you to one and all for a more than stellar start to this characters journey and I hope so so much I can continue it come June!

Just wanna open this with a huge thank you to Matt D for Pendarvin plot being incredible and Abby/Thalia for bringing me into it.
In no particular order...

-Having a new recruit to show around. I joke about being picked too often to babysit, but I do love helping prospective guards learn the lay of the land.

-Lots of good interactions with Ergos, Beorn, Thalia, and Amalthea. Finally getting to talk to other healers as the secret gets out.

-Pendarvin plot was great and I'm glad that I was given a chance to help out with it. Super excited to see what happens next.
--Running around cursed was hilarious and I almost wish I could have played around with un-healable wounds for more than a few hours.

-Main mod was a blast. I rarely play caster NPC's so getting to run around throwing goofy crowd control at everyone was great, and I hope I didn't annoy people too much with [Arcing Cast-Blink!]

-Special thanks to Billiam for trying so hard to make me laugh on Sunday.
