June 2017 Highlights.

Wow... full time NPCing is something very different than I am used to, and very exhausting.

I arrived on Camp at 6 am and immediately took a nap, so when logistics opened I already felt like I was in camp!

Angry - thanks for breakfast and all you do for the kitchen.

Twisted Fish Nyads wakeup mod was awesome fun - I loved being an Angler Fish based monster and using dominate for strange things. The crew I rolled with was a lot of fun. Highlights:
1) Two us tried to Dominate 3 people in a tent... and the rotation of Dominate - Clarity bomb between them was nearly a comedy sketch. It reminded me of early Order of the Stick team cleric.
2) Dominated someone to stand between me an his allies ... he stuck around for the rest of the mod and RPd like a champ.
3) Chet dominated to walk into the middle of the more dangerous monsters, and Valenye (sp?) dragging behind him grasping on his belt trying to stop him.
4) After many attempts to dominate people into finding Clytie and the pearl... one person actually did!!!

Sediq!!!! Man, so good to see you and such great casting. Sad I was too late getting back to NPC out with you, but You were amazing.

I think the empress daughter was the best NPC casting ever.

I got sent out as a major Goblin Assassin (disguised as a human). It was really funny how many people thought I was caldor despite wearing all black and carrying two very large swords with me....
I scouted the world fair for a while and got myself introduced,... but really had no idea how I was going to kill people with everyone in such a big group, and being guarded so carefully. Then... the greatest chance encounter occurred and I had the best thing ever. I went back to the Inn for something, and as I'm leaving A newer guard member sees me and offers me 5 gold to help carry the ale barrels down to the worlds fair with him. .... I completely innocently helped. To anyone who got the death poison in the ale, sorry/not sorry. The attempted questioning was fun, and the Interrogate resulting in "Yes, of course I poisoned the ale.. VANISH" was fun... It was nice to be on the other side of marco polo tracking. Sadly, I couldn't possibly stand up to Winks when he caught up. It was a great, great post death fun.

Later in the day, I went out as an Orc in Jeremy's new player mine mod - so, amazingly fun. I won't summarize it all here - but it was really well written, and A blast to play out.

I also main bossed the high risk/high reward NPC. Wow... that was great. The chase afterwards, when I escaped would have been even better if all my pursuers weren't so much younger and more fit than I was. But a very fun mod. Again great NPC crew.

Renee - thank you for everything you did to get feast ready, especially since you took it over last minute. Great job! Post feast clean up was amazingly smoothe, and I thank everyone who helped.

Main mod was a little rough. Again great crew of NPCs and great set up and story. I had hoped we'd hold out longer, as it was fun.
One thing I've noticed is we need to find a way to get more spackets to respawning NPCs in the field. I hope people will donate more to logistics!!!! I did take a few headshots that kinda took me a few paces and caused me to pause a little mid battle, but thankfully nothing serious.

Post main mod cool down was necessary - and the "Creepy Chroniclerite" mod was just what the doctor ordered. I absolutely loved being obsessed with details about shoes, both the dignitaries and the people we spoke to about them. YOu all played so well, both those who responded seriously and those who made it more of a joke. Best use of Truth evasion ever. Also, I loved using Detect Truth only for people's shoe size claims, and know age on shoes.

Had to leave around midnight, but it was an action packed, fun day.

Thank you to James and Goose for everything.

Soooo tired...

SO!

Friday night: Having a fairly quiet night until:
"WE HAVE A BLACK SORCERY RITUAL THING OUT HERE!"
Cue allll of the experimental sorcery! That basically turned into: "How much posi/healing/white strands/everything good in the world can we put together?" It worked!!
-Gabriel ripped it apart in 10 min *laughs*
-Helping Clytie with another skull
-All of the compliments!

NPC
-I should NPC Friday night more often. The amount of energy I had compared to the second day was amazing!
-GREAT GROUP: Karen, Chels, and I were awesome together
-Argyle: "Lore: Undead!" *Karen says what she is* "Ooooohhhhkay. Alright. You?" *Chels says what she is* "....Got it....Ok. And...you?" *I tell him what I am" "......Well. We might be losing witchunters tonight! Ok then! Bring it!"
-Argyle again: "You know what Im going to do to you? You are going to laugh so hard." Me: "Ill even take it! Bring it!" Argyle: *swings* "5 Posi" Me: *cracks up laughing*
-Allll of the fighting. That was honestly awesome and knowing you guys had as much fun as we did was great!

Sat
-Taking the coldest shower in the universe
-Putting on makeup!
-Getting the decorations put up
-Getting dressed
-Allll of the compliments! Cassie is amazing at sewing and I am thrilled how that outfit turned out
-It all going well!
-Running across Aleister and Cara on the road and having them both bow waist down. Mae was so proud of them and of the fact that they paid so much respect to her countrywoman. She was proud and thrilled of everyone who came forward and might have tried to stack the deck so to speak to try to impress her haha
-Katie- it was a pleasure :)
-Certain conversations and resolutions that made Mae almost cry in relief
-The little one!! Omg so cute!
-Lord Silverbow!

Coming in as Allyce to research for a few hours alone at the scholars table. Getting a few questions answered by others and had a few conversations that helped immensely. Look forward to research questions!!!!!

I had a ton of fun and I cant wait til Dexcon!

Had an amazingly fun event. Thank you to Goose and the NPCs, and everyone I interacted with, especially James, Steve, Tori, Matt, Alice, Walter, Alisia, Geoff, and Drew.

Some of my favorite highlights off the top of my head:

managing to be at the right place at the right time in a fucking downpour and saving Meander and Tobias when they were almost killed in their sleep;

bonding with Aleister time during the faire;

dramatic posing(and standing and walking) lessons with the Count that went on for over an hour;

experimental magic time (aka "discovering" new mage with a bunch of awesome mages);

sassing her (great x who knows how many) grandpa so hard he killed one of her best friends in front of her and she could do nothing about it

Dealing with knowledge she can never share and the question of whether or not what she is will prevent her from being who she wants to be.

See you all at the con!!

An oldfriend and cross being back in the proper and everything that happened regarding that.
Some slick RP in thT briefing.

All the skull work friday night. Being woken 1 hr after going to bed to come out into the pouring rain to find two missing Blood Spirits. OK at the Inn by the tome I walk up. The briefing from Argyle nearly incoherant with excited fear worry and the calm nodding responses of Birgitta seeming to effect everyone at that table. Positively. No pun I swaer.

The Count at the encampment repeatedly plans needs forfilled turn into the following highlights.

Presenting a small parade bringing the count to the field.

The pellet with the poison plan at feast. I still don't like that bard. Keying off his antics even though we had a plan in place too... he was a good distraction. And the poison yeah... it still wouldnt have worked...

Forgotten assets patrolling

Pendarvin. Talking with Kitan Night Undead. No the Empress of Jade is not here. Not saying you got the wrong Lady... then Pendarvin gong Ham. You want em. 'Darius never get between a Knight and his seen duty.'

The outer ring Patrols Jeds assistance the three in Ostcliff who were not the promised three but became the promised three. Because. Excorts down where we could and still run patrol... i thought the guard would be doing this. Ok you you and you. Excort detail! And some of mine split again.

Jed's questions leading me to confront two hundred undead alone...talking. What? 'Yeah. Its good to be out of the cold.'

Teleporting in NPCs... that has to be a portal. Tracking undead walking patterns alone back to source. Oh my. The above confrintation then sending in The Hunters to do work.

Assassins and their attacks poison attempts. Watching two particular npcs and finding out later rightly so.

Then finding out though i only met a couple of the delegates for a moment they somehow knew who we were and what we were doing. Um OK.


A la cart highlights

Dragoon lore teachings twice and realizations for the young ones. You all rock and I look forward to other RP and sacrifices with you.

Watching the Counts hate for Goblins just everywhere.

Hearing about Dragoon plot. Realizing I was likely the only Dragoon not there because... Peaches... doing Peaches stuff. FYI if Dragoon persue personal stuff Birgitta does not ever interfere. She will assume at a certain stage you know what you are doing.

Watching the Tug o War and walking away seconds before the collaspe by sounds of it.

Being fed feast while assisting with interrogation of the newly dead. Alex/Tess I love you.

More realizations of changes in the Merc C/O. Personality as well as overtly.

NPC wake up call done right the killing being in the second round not the first Ostcliff you are amazing.

Mis spawning turning into great NPC RP..

My Spirits standing up in unisen when asked a dire question. You make your boss proud and awed and also knowing others not prsent would have done the same.

Great show wish I could have seen more of it but...busy.

Well, let's see.

-Alcohol. So much alcohol. Liighkaa tried so many new beverages this event, and decided she likes most of them. She's spent the past several events complaining that Travancian ale tastes like gross tea, and people have been fairly consistently responding to this by giving her various interesting imports made by dwarves or elves or whatever. She's slowly acknowledging that, even if nothing good comes from Travance, quite a lot of good ends up in it.

-Speaking of alcohol: getting unspeakably drunk on salt wine in the Djinn and Tonic with Moostrav. Touching Moostrav's psionic focus so that she can watch the pretty colors -- while she's hallucinating vividly, AND while he is playing with the psionic energy of her mind because he wants to and is bored.

-Liighkaa has a brother!! She was so incredibly excited! The brother is Moostrav. This particular discovery was made during aforementioned drunken mind-digging. Be very afraid.

-Learning stuff from Amizar. :D

-Philosophical conversations with Father Ephrem about the nature and source of law. Taking that conversation to its natural conclusion: visiting nearly every single visiting dignitary to ask them their opinion about it. Oh, also, if anybody is curious about the Count's views on the duties of the people towards the state, she asked him, too.

-NPCing a crystal miner. That was a fun mod, especially in the end, where I was pinned with a stalactite and had to have my leg burned off with acid. To all of those PCs who dragged my character out at the end, y'all did some awesome role-play!

-Jed at feast. OH MY HEAVENS. Visually speaking, the part where Jed captured the spirit of the assassin was second only to the physrep of Icarus for sheer beautiful madness.

-The three traveling tradesmen who Liighkaa knows simply as "The Healer, the Gambler, and the Quinari." Congratulations for becoming important enough for Liighkaa to recognize, but not important enough for her to bother remembering your names.


Lowlights:
My anxiety was acting up all weekend, and it kinda' came to a head after NPCing Main Mod. I'm sorry that I wasn't able to do more. The game as a whole was very fun, and everybody was great.
