August 2017 Highlights

As Ava:

-Jumping into Chaos Portal.... twice....ending up at the gates once....the void the other time. Saved by the Orophin both times.

-Being Absolutely manic about it as Ava. Chaos portals?!?! Small Lady chanting demonic??? Ava would've been completely sucked in if not for....

-Arch Devil of Malyc coming back unexpectedly. Found out he was the token, likely created for this purpose. Made me OOG and IG sad..... Will be bringing is body to the pits when we go hopefully

-Mummy hunt? Well...more like taking the objective item from the mummy.

-Meeting Chronicler as Ava, digging some holes playing a game called "I ask you a cryptic question and you give me a cryptic answer" as well as asking about several religious related things and finding out some interesting information....


As Leliana:

-Running after Cy when she starting running away because an angel showed up. Chasing her being like "WHATSSS WRONG??" because she didn't see. Then when we got outside being beset by a single undead. Poor Undead....poor poor undead.

-Cennius Senpai time. "Is that Cennius? No it can't be, he's moving too fast!!"

-Leliana, going to the void this time, rather abruptly along with some others.

-Finding out that if you try and walk around the shadows in the void you start teleporting frantically around.

-Spinning.....so much spinning....thankfully we had some nice chains to keep us from floating away....

-Skeleton with wings friend???? What a cute lil guy!!!

-Atrus being mean... Leliana didn't like it AT ALL....he's very lucky big sister didn't break him in half

Can't wait to [strike]hunt[/strike] see you all in September

This was a wonderful event to celebrate 2 years of KR.

Before Lay-on:
Watching memes be created and not regretting my involvement

Friday night:
The artist makes his first move.

Demons show up and Abe deals with it by staying at the bar.

Abe finally meets some people he's been meaning to talk with.

Watching Caldor's ritual.

Going through a chaos portal with some new friends and realizing that we're very underleveled.

Digging graves on the beach and making some money for it.



Saturday morning:
Working the bar in the morning and seeing many unfamiliar faces.

Selling muffins and using them to help Nalick deal with a hostage situation.

Abe reuniting with his brother.

Fighting Goblinoids with my shovel, it went better than expected.



Main Mod:
NPC'ing a demon and not being able to tell if what I was going to fight was a PC or NPC.

Constantly using Tsunami on people who it wouldn't effect.

Someone: Casts a barrier or wall spell.
Me: Taps where the wall would be a few times and runs somewhere else.



Saturday Night:
Having a drink at the bar and talking with Chet.

Pendarvin Mod was both enjoyable and terrifying.

Abe trying his best to help Aria, but accidentally making it worse.

Walking to the inn and hearing hissing coming towards us.
Abe: "Werespiders!"
Later finding out that it wasn't werespiders.

The events that unfolded at the prison. Ben Herman you are amazing at going along with whatever strange things we bring you.

Sunday:
Trying to give a raven a drink.

Y'all might as well just ask Jenna Leder what I did this event. Her memory is probably better than mine.

One of the best events I've ever had as I come up on my one year at Knight Realms, thank you all for making this one of my favorite places to visit.

Cleric barricade at lay on with Duncan and Aldric: "Darius, ye feel like going up the stairs?" throw really is a great way to get a tactical advantage

Friday night, learning Reyna had fallen on a hunt! I learned later that Darius could be heard screaming basically anywhere on the camp, my apologies to anyone who thought their was an OOG issue.

Life lesson, when two people willing to die for what they believe in face off, it's generally the one willing to kill for his beliefs who sees them through.

Seeing Caldor's unique in action for the first time and participating in the ritual to bring Reyna back from death. Plenty of intense role play and fun times all around.

Learning just how many people have Darius' back. Damn. Y'all are going to make me cry.

Oscliff training is the best thing. Practicing for capture the lord was great. highlights of that: blocks of ice make great barriers so your friends can still help you hold ground even if Burkehart is on the other team, people generally follow orders if you yell, strength is a great stat, and lords can be carried to protect them.

"There he stands alone one man against all
With the sword in his hand, soon he will fall"

Father Ephram almost brought Darius to tears. Bryan I will always love interacting with your character.

BEHOLD THE PLOT
THE PLOT OF PLOTS

Jeremy Schwartz and Jeff Balla congrats, it all paid off. Jen and forest as Krela and her brother were a lot of fun and I can not wait for them to show up in game again. The fact that you mad bastards brought a trebuchet was amazing. The honor combat was straight out of a movie, Reyna and Krela facing off while their brothers stand by ready to fight for them as the entire battlefield watches on in amazement. Giving Darius the chance to be the hero he wants to be rather than the monster he thinks he is at the end made a nice touch:
ASSASINATE
intercede
no effect
shit shit shit fuck INTERCEPT FOR HER I TAKE IT!!!

RIP ratbag, Milof got his belt

The ending of that plot made me happy, considering how bad things often end up, getting the "golden ending" was a great way to end one of the best plots I've ever had the pleasure of being involved in.

TLDR: Jeremy Schwartz and Jeff Balla are the best, 'nuff said.

First, though there were some rough spots, the Drew, Alisea, Tori, and Steve managed to put together a true "Last Minute Production" that worked more than just OK.
Jai (and Michelle) and others did a good feast. Would cannoli again.

A highlight for Steve - he ran Edwin from the battlefield. I was perilously close to being dropped and was uncertain if he was killing blow active, so discretion was the better part of valor. Glad I obtained the Gate Rune that afternoon.

Playing a Necromancer for Andrew's New Player mod. My damage was nerfed, which was fine, as they were New Players, and I was told to only Harvest the soul of someone who could kill me (sorry psion). It was a nice change to engage in combat with PCs who did not want to die or be dropped. Andrew did a fine job of moving the NPC mages around. I also got to use my 1HB, which was nice.

BTW, Andrew directed Chris to kill Evin's PC, for legit reasons. So much for an engagement gift. Cannot wait to see what Andrew does for a wedding surprise. Andrew ran a tight, entertaining mod which will have a follow up.

Taught a few lores, conducted some business, had a long IG conversation with Trent.

After around two years, the Count returned my best sword, which I had lent him the night the Nulls attacked and Telligrin was sorely wounded.

In the first part of MM, Matt Calo played his NPC to perfection.

So!

Friday Night:

-Monster Marshal Training! Thank you allll for having patience and Larry and Rachael for helping me out. It was exhilarating though and I hope you thought I did a good job.

-Getting done and realizing I was at the 21 hour point of no sleep. Once I realized I couldnt remember my card much less figure out how to talk, I went to bed.

Saturday!

-I slept! Wow! Its amazing!
-Being on time for the meeting with the Baron!
-Meeting our new members of the Guard and helping to outfit them (Thank you to all of the people that have helped with that!)
-Having Lord Silverbow come up to me and give me gifts! (That was amazing Norm and for once, Allyce had almost nothing to say in return)
-All of the little information sessions
-Flipping out on Lorelei
-Meeting with the Warlord and planning battle strategy. The fact that the Main Mod almost completely negated that strategy non-with-standing. We had one! And it was decent!
-Being dominated no less then 5 times and blown up at least 4 during main mod.
-Figuring out a cypher with others as the marshal was figuring out the message. Took an hour and a half but worth it.
-Sleeping....again? What? What is this?

Sunday:
-Research? Research. RESEARCH.

This month was interesting for me as a person and a PC. Dealing with interesting situations that really made me as the OOG person think about how my PC was reacting. Realizing how much Allyce has truly not gotten past- and also realizing that she never should. Allyce herself realizing the same thing and also realizing that the choice she thought shed never have to make....is in a way, already made. Interesting times are ahead.

Also: To all of the Guard, new and old, you are all amazing and I am so blessed to have you in my life and my PC's life. Never change
