So this month was an amazing event for myself OOC and Anhîl IC.
Friday: Arrived early slept, then layon was called. First NPC shift as an Ice Giant went up to the slab and got to have fun. Until a PC used fear and I with no defenses for it ran from them. After that I got to be a BUNCH of assassins in the graveyard for a ritual that was disrupted. Bunked up and bed after that.
Saturday: Woke up early and had some breakfast. Then went on the lowbie dream mod. It was great time helping out Page as she was freaking out (good role play btw) after that we headed to the monastery to try and figure out how to go into the spirt realm and were flatly told no. After that headed to the inn was approached by Jonas and was asked to get some people to go solve the new goblin problem. Killed some goblins then went on a quest to help protect myself for main mod. We went out gathered some blue flowers for a quest and were attacked by wolves. After we killed a bunch and everyone got their flowers we walked and walked and walked and got lost in the woods for about an hour. When we got back to the inn Jack Cypher grabbed me and I joined some other new people in town to go help a man on a treasure hunt. Went to mass and got baptized into the church of Gia. Something Anhîl has been trying to do since he arrived in Travance. After that it was feast time. After feast I crashed for the night.
Sunday: Spent my whole day in the kitchen. Serving and then cleaning.
Thank you to Shamus, Iliana, and everyone really for such a great game.

-Seeing Kate back at the game. Fun Gaian times and desecrating an alter of Galamachis, followed by a trip to Dinnerdark to get warm. Then finding out they've organized a small search party to find me...
-My first Marshal shift. Hopefully people had some fun, I sure did.
-Ice Fortitude. Enough said.
-Getting lost in the woods.
-Monastery Feast - Corn chowder, ham steaks, and bread. Simple, but effective.
-Desecrating altar number two after main mod.
-Getting home to find that I've hit my first weight loss goal after a weekend of running around up and down hills. My feet hurt, but it was worth it.

- Ritual of the Amulet, take 2... failed AGAIN. Didn't die this time.
- Ritual of the Amulet, take 3... Success, at last! Now, just to make the sucker permanent...
- More new students. Always fun! Looking forward to seeing a new crop of mages make progress.
- Marshaling a string of rituals for Arden / Norm - a lot of fun to see him, and the others, RP it all out.
- "Any more questions about the Arcanite? No? Meeting adjourned." Not 5 minutes later "The Arcanite is at the Inn!"
- ZOMG, Support Classes! 7 Smiths in town, almost as many Scholars!
All in all, a good event, esp. after being gone in February. Looking forward to the Alt Event, and April!

So much plot i am involved with now it's amazing and the little asides and making of my own happenings are awesome.
Seeing Gideon's heart being cut out and Belegchand's brain.
Great RP from Amalthea Merill
I will second the Geoff's assessment, Any more questions on the Arcanite, then heading to the inn and seeing lois come running, me calling, what's wrong, ARCANITE, i ran like there was a drow on my tail.
Going on the low fighting mod and actually being useful in combat felt nice.
My comment to Misaki as he left the Inn with Niel, and his reaction, great RP.
The many faces of how we treat Belegchand
Chatting with Ming and the Archbishop
The irony after the fact
Being invited to my first IG wedding and learning the right language to understand it
Xander's climb lesson
Jingle jingle jingle jingle jingle jingle jingle
See you all next month!

Friday Night...
Stuck in school & NYC for most of the day & taking the train into Dover to get to camp. Finally arrived after lay on was called.
1. Seeing my friends and their reactions when I finally arrived. Those smiles warmed me better than any hot cocoa.
2. Hanging out by the fire in Alisandria, the shenanigans that take place there, & the serious RP afterwards that made me realize that I've been ignoring other factors in my life because I thought some duties were too important.
Saturday morning...
1. Seeing Market Faire & the new Monster Zone. Wow, KR is ever expanding.
2. Went off to save a farmer couple from Ice Giants. Frost Aura sucks, but it taught me I need to learn to block/parry IRL better. Being defensive is more than just having the tag skills.
3. Helping a group of newcomers visit the Monster Zone & seeing them handle themselves vs some bandits. I should remember that fear/caution/bravado I used to have.
Saturday Afternoon (NPC)
1. Helping marshal a mod for the blue flowers & wolves. Many thanks to the NPC's who listened & took direction so well. Many kudos to the players who went. I hope you had fun.
2. Going out as a rowdy buccaneer & generally being obnoxious.
2a. Calling the Satyr's "sea unicorns".
2b. Tirsen taking me prisoner, but letting me walk forward on my own... through a crowd of townsfolk with there backs to me. Too good to pass up.
2c. Subduing Chris Goley & making 1 last desperate attempt to bargain, fight, flee.
Saturday night
1. Hot shower... yes. Lukewarm water... sadness. Still got clean though.
2. Missed dinner, but got to act as escort & assistant to the Count.
3. Hearing the Count's desire to find the gypsy who hexed a performer & the Count's anger & possible genocide of every gypsy there was until the culprit was found. :blink:
4. Heading back to Alisandria & it's glorious firepit. Smores...
5. Guided Amalthea to the battle/main mod/totem field... what did I get myself into?
6. Left shoulder? Nope, what now have is a new place where pain dwells & it's named Kuato.
Sunday (Monster Marshal Training)
1. Many thanks to Katie for being patient & helping me learn the ropes. Still got a lot more to do.
2. Marshalling & running my first mod I thought up & wrote (okay... maybe not wrote, but inspired by a WoW Escort quest ). Many thanks to my NPC's & the PC's who went. I hope you all enjoyed it.
I hope to see you all in April event. I won't be at the ALT event, but please have a blast.

-Friday night encounter with Obsidian Raptors. I really love that there's a recurring antagonist that's gotten Winks' eternal enmity the way they have. It really came out while working with Sir Elezar to interrogate one after the battle.
-A very enjoyable NPC shift with a good mix of combat and RP roles. Big thanks to Frank, Mike, and Matt White for that.
-Favorite moment witnessed during the event, Magnus and an NPC body block each other at the exact same time, after which Magnus just goes, "Well, that was awkward."
-Mass and Mage's Guild meeting, with some great RP with people before, between, and after them.
-All of Saturday night: Feast, Main mod, hunting with Seamus Del'Dragon, and much more. Good food, good combat, even more great RP.
-Main highlight of Sunday was my duel with Oren. Both of us were getting evaluated to be Tobar's next Master Warrior student, and it didn't really help his decision that we actually knocked each other out at the exact same time. Don't mind at all that Oren was chosen first though, I'd say we both earned it in spades with that fight.
-Also, more Acrobat students! I swear they come out of the woodwork, and some from very surprising sources.
See everyone next time!

-Appreciative of the fact not a terrible amount of people bothered Ilana about what happened.
-Ilana always assumes people want her dead. Hearing it as a fact was a bit weird.
-Weird things with Wild Mages
-Frost Giants and Frost Wolves. I had always made side comments about Ilana's fur blanket coming from 'a giant type of wolf up north' then they exist after all!
Now that I'm more conscious:
-Morwenne! I know the Chimera wants to eat Ilana, but she is one of the people Ilana cares about the most. It was nice seeing her again.
-The Arcanite. It is far less terrifying in the daytime somehow. I actually got close enough to watch how it acted and try and figure it out a bit. Maybe because it had a lot of targets to pay attention to.
-Hanging around with Pat Hand's Galladel NPC.
-Chatting with a Vampire to stall it while trying to get Magnus' attention was hard.
-Ilana's getting better at focusing on one thing at a time. Sort of.
-Falling asleep after main mod and apparently blacking out to the world for a bit. People tried waking me up for a reanimation I'm told and I didn't even acknowledge it.
Not a lot of different things happened, but a lot of RP came out of the things that did and I enjoyed it. Will not be able to make it to the Alt Event currently, but I'll see you all in April

-Going on my first real mod for the protection from the wolves (and then I neatly avoided main mod). I am finally somewhat useful in a fight!
Also, thanks to all of you for putting up with my injuries on that long work, I highly appreciate it.
-Learning how much I love lyric of protection and riddle of confusion.
-Lots of good role play with Belegchand and Aemorniel. Seriously though...Aemorniel+Almat=two Chroniclerite scholars who put knowledge over common sense at times...
-Scholar research party! Hopefully the first of many.
-Priest lesson.
Being told during the priest lesson that I am too quiet.
Being told after the lesson by at least three different people that I will be making enemies by the mere act of becoming priestess of Chronicler, and that there are people I should be quiet about it around.
-Requiem for the dead lesson.
-Role play with Typhon and Paige, comforting each pretty close together.
-So many things that I am currently being too tired to remember, or really can't talk about.
I am falling more in love with this game every month. Thanks guys! I love you all!

the 15 second vampire mod; best NPC death EVER!
Phantasmal landmines
"what do I see?"
"a huge pile of 'what the ****'"
"Lore Magic?"
Playing the Phantasm that was scaring the crap out of people.
Saturday:
letting on that Elric's worst fear has come to town.
Looking everywhere to find a teacher for Lore Divinity, then finally finding one.
Actually having a use for Lore Sea!!!!!
Feast was really good. that chicken pot pie needs to happen more often
2nd NPC shift:
100 divine fire is not nearly as scary when you are only taking 45 of it.
I want to take this moment to say good fight to Magnus, Misaki, Quan Liu, and Brogan. You four made Playing that role even more epic.
Epic deaths are what NPCing is all about in my eyes.
Stupid O'clock:
Bulk order of shields.
Explaining that Elric was attacked by a frost wolf as he was walking out of the baronial offices, and that was why his hair was still white and he had blue splotches on his face.
Sunday:
*someone else gets hit with an insult*
"That is it, I am tired of this... SHATTER WEAPON! INCAP!"
*fight over*
box of doom
Ghost mod.
Elric giving up his holy symbol to consecrate the grave, since it was the only thing that we had on us that was consecrated.
Overall this has been a very RP intensive event for me.
Lowlight: not being able to make it to the alt event.
see you at the April event guys!

Learned one new list and lined up a teacher (thanks!) for when I can open my fourth, had a blast watching/helping with Ardin's rituals, and gathering spell components. Thanks to Belegchand, Gideon, Ardin, and Edwin for being excellent sports, and to Justice for walking in at the precisely wrong (right?) time. Feast was also amazingly yummy! Can't wait to come back

Staying in the frat house
Not using a weapon or offensive ability of any kind for the enire event.
Observing Jon G (as Antrim) perfomr a ritual. They sure are different from Ceremonies. I have a lot to learn, and he set a high bar.
Performing my first Ritual - not used to the success percentage cap, but Geoff rolled better fo me than he does for himself. :cool:
My thanks to all who helped the continual clean up process in the kitchen.
Ditto for those who when asked did trash detail and those who came and told us when bathrooms needed suppies.
(ex) Canadian Kate. It was also good to see Rosa. "You know, Edwin, I never would have thought you would be the most reasonable one in a situation like this."
Amalthea's off-hand comment as she dissected my heart "Do you know how many people have dreamed of holding the still-beating heart of Edwin?"
The usual Death by Chocolate circle and talk.
The audience with the High Pontiff with Ardin, Skorpor, and Rayven. Rob - I love your IG blunt manner.
Oft heard "Why do you carry your weapons in a quiver?"

•Its's always rewarding NPCing with Travance's movers and shakers.
•Young Edmund sitting and spending time with the ladies of the land. The few men who were there were so outgunned.
•The memorable smile of a certain VonRitter.
•Real acrobatics! Derrick needs to be my trainer.
•Having to run a family that is actually more complicated than mine in many more ways.
•Sibling rivalry. Sisters are much more difficult.
•One well-timed hug can fix alot.
•Oh yeah...I met the Pope!
•I don't understand all this Edwin Haroldson business; he seems just fine to me.
•Guild meeting. My children really do care about the Weave. Or maybe they are just afraid of the Arcanite and are looking for anawers.
• Ardin's life is way complicated...but wouldn't want to be a certain unnamed teenager right now...
•Hey Cy, grab me when you see me next. Have a few scraps of paper to pass along.
•Nearby scholars make great targets of aggression.
•The many sides of Malcolm. Guy portrays a great spirit-just saying.
•Dark elves everywhere and the only two I could kill I did not see.
•Almat's Fanfare of Victory. Look dad, I'm a warrior.
•I now have my most sought out new mage as my apprentice. Just when things are tough at home too.
•There are more to Khitans than their good looks. When you're almost a hundred there are still things to learn.
•Wild mage payback kindness. Very sweet.
•Angelica, I've never seen you like this.
•Wondering if its better for Ardin to be feared, respected or the subject of sympathy.
•It's great having all of this sorcery experience bearing some fruit...finally.
•Having my heart stolen by a lovely Quinarian.
•Tsoli, you invented a new spell-Stop someome in their tracks with the secret command word-FAILURE.
•Goblin wardeobe has come a long way. Maybe Ib has been looking up to Ardin as more than just a mage.
•Gus in drag. Wow!!
•Hey, at least I got three hours of sleep last weekend. There is no other place I would rather have been. I feel the love, even if Ardin doesn't always. I love you all back.

-Friday-
NPC:
Undead.
Wolves for the New Player Mod. Let a new player practice his Animal Empathy multiple times. Good RP
A spy with two assassins looking for Dame Heartwood. Once the assassins turned on Danny McKreager, the spy claimed she wasn't part of it until Kwildar Friendshipped her and allowed her to confess to their plans. Brought to jail.
Back as Keavy, she had promised to tell something to Caelvan, something important. He handled it better than she thought he would. Suggested to be a warrior of Chaos.
-Saturday-
Met and talked to Bran about what it means to be a Chaos Warrior whilst he sold Stout Brownies. "Stout Brownies! Brownies with Alcohol! You want them! Come buy them and I'll stop shouting!!"
Flower Mod.. First time Keavy's had to face wolves during her stay in Travance. She was NOT a happy camper. Only managed to companion one of the wolves, but felt horrible for having to kill off its pack. She wanted the whole thing to be over with ASAP. After getting lost, we head back to the Inn and she tried to drink away her woes (which didn't work since Caelvan's been making her become more tolerant of ale). Sir Crestingstar sat beside her and talked with her to calm and reassure her.
C:"When you were with your pack...Did you ever have to fight of other wolves to defend your own?"
K:"Rarely, but yes."
C:"See...Although it is hard to go against your own kind, you must remember what you are trying to protect." Great RP, it brought Keavy's spirits back up.
Cool RP/buisness between Keavy and the nobles of Kaladonia about the heraldry. (Personal boost of confidence was a plus haha)
Went to check out the Monster Zone. Bandits. Was a little lost about it, to be honest.
Came back and attended mass for kicks.
Arcanite. WTF!? Really creepy!!
Feast! Really good Chicken Pot Pie! Fruit was good too but I barely got any of it..
-Main Mod-
Had to fight MORE wolves! So...many...wolves...
Put up a good defense, helped some people heal, was part of Caelvan's personal band with Nyle and Bran. Witnessed techniques of a Choas Warrior, and how crazy Bran gets haha.
At one point, one wolf decided to flee, and Caelvan and I tracked it until it ran too far. When we came back, Archer was displeased.
A:"We were told to kill every single thing we come across! Go find it now and kill it!"
K: -becoming infuriated- "But it ran away! It won't harm us anymore!"
Had a shouting match until Keavy started growling and Bran had to hold her back.
Once it was all over, more interesting RP with Bran.
Headed to the Inn for a drink, got a little drunk. Until she heard werewolves were about. Went along with Caelvan and a group of witch hunters to find them, Keavy volunteering to lure them if necessary, but to no avail.
Headed back to sleep.
-Sunday-
Breakfast. Sausage was yummy.
Ghost mod. Fun with tracking, but hard to find the items the ghost lost.
Learning the Art of Flim and Flam from Ming Na. Very funny RP.
Some bad Choas warriors came to the inn, chaotically altered Caelvan and had him attack Keavy. She was in too much shock to swing fast enough.
Once he was cured, saw another on the ground outside.
CW: -looks at Keavy- " I bet her ears are longer than anything else on your body!" -turns to Caelvan- "Insult!" LOL
Came back to the Inn to waste time, decided to learn Shield of Nature from Caelvan with Seamus' help. Incapacitate? Really?!
Overall, great event! Can't wait to start learning the ways of the Chaos Warrior!

Heh, I'm glad folks appreciated that. It was a rare opportunity for me to play something quite so ... different, and a big Thank You to Jeff McClean for giving me a role to play that I was capable of playing while my back was screaming at me to stop doing combat, and just sit and clean Logistics.

Friday night:
Pros:
- Getting to play a character! I was so nervous! my personallity needs work...
- Ostcliff quickly taking me in as their own. with no questions... except my name...
- my npc shift! playing a thief who leaves posions in people's pockets is pretty cool... even better that the two alchemists studying that night took a lot of my posions! (I was telling the truth, I didn't steal anything) hahahaha!
- the moonlight and the atmosphere. whoever was howling that night, I could hear you from wherever I was. I was scared! for reals!
- being part of a mod that involes a characters life being at stake! a few of them!
Cons:
- The traffic on the way there, didn't get in till 9 and it stopped me from doing things that night
- Not being able to remember many names, I'm really sorry a lot of the time I was overwelmed by what was happening, chances are I'll ask for your name at least 4 times before it sinks in
- npc shift was from 2-6am... I was cold and my feet were killing me...
- feet were frozen for most of the weekend... anyone know where I can find better shoes?? :pinch:
Saturday:
Pros:
- Marketplace. I got 2 sword holders so I don't need to hold a weapon all the time! it really helped!
- Not to metion I got a awesome cupcake and get food from the arch bishop, (thank you so much!! )
- wandered around for a little bit and found a flower mod I can particiate in... I really didn't mind getting lost, that's what I was doing in the first place~ :lol:
- treasure hunt mod! I love solving puzzles... if I knew the game had a potion of siren in it would of been easier. oh well
- finding out that my armor has 40 ap with a +2 soak... YES! I don't block well!
- Helping with feast! I'm so used to being in a kitchen, that serving doesn't phaze me the slightest~
- Making Louis the cook laugh. I was getting intimidated for a moment.
- The food!
-Getting my picture taken by Kyle Ober... having fun picking a picture. thank you for the lolz!
- diggy diggy hole! I'm digging a hole!
- trying hookah for the first time! I'm going to take it easy the next time.
- having an idea for a my character, not sure if I can still change it a bit... anyone know?
- main mod, even though it was kind of meh, a lot of roleplay happend.
- as I was playing, I completely forgot about real life. :blush:
Cons:
- I personally love to be up by 9am to deal with getting dressed and maybe taking a shower so I'm not making people wait to use the bathroom, but I didn't get up till about 11 or 12. (I blame the 2-6 npc shift )
- While we were lost on the mod, there was a lot of thorny things poking at my skin I have a few scraches on me... really no one's fault but they did bother me.
- estimating how much bp and ap I had... this is something I need to get used to.
- I hate my feet...
- dozing off with the baron in the tent... I probably missed a lot and they were poking fun at me
Sunday Morning:
Pros:
- woke up and realized we we're being attacked. Hurry! Many pretend lives are at stake!
- I really was exusted... I like doing everything and giving my all!
- Watching people practice
- More roleplay had occured, as people came to the inn and attacked!
- getting to meet the poeple I rped with, and helping them pack.
- the drive home. mostly the look on the toll collecter's face seeing an elf in the car with my boffer weapons in the back... it didn't dawn on me till I drove away.... :lol:
Cons:
- dropped like a noob! TWICE!! lmao!!!
- I really was exusted... havent had enough sleep.

Friday night was filled with rumors, slow walks, and great interaction with the people that know Oren fairly well. With Ilana's abduction, and the failed attempt to save her the first time, I had to amp myself for Oren's break down in the monastery and the inn as well.
Saturday brought some great revelations in character, and some fairly large drama that will keep some aspects of the game very interesting for a little while. Including the second mental break down of the weekend, after an un-resistible surge and all that followed, including tracking down, and talking to all the other wildmages that were there this month.
Feast and NPC shift were great as per usual.
Sunday had me learn a few things about how I deal with situations in game and out. The master warrior lesson was awesome. Thank you both , Walter, and Zach. Also have a few new deals worked out for the Bacon Hut, and a few ideas on the horizon; so here's to making more gold, and perhaps expanding in the future.
only down sides were: seeing so many friends being sick all event or getting there by the end, and having to handle the loss of most of my in game things due to dropping a bag while chasing down a mod (no worries, I can recover pretty easily, after replacing one or two things.).
over all a great event.

FRIDAY:
~Talking with a drunk Orias Wormwood. While ALL of the conversations Ava had with him were awesome this had to be my favorite because it was the start of all the other crap Ava was going to get herself into... (Thank you Alex for some really interesting Roleplay, probably some of the best I have ever gotten to experience so far)
~ Ava getting her marriage annulled after the whole "Choking and keeping her obedient fiasco" (Again thank you Alex for you know.. all of that choking and dominating talk, and to the person who was playing that drow [I didn't recognize you ] who kept telling Jack to choke and hit me)
~Ava getting feared by Wormwood, making this the second time a man has been able to actually get her rattled up. Caused her to learn some of the things she did.....
~Dr. Maxwell lessons....... because Ava hates going outside in the middle of the night....
~Drinking an old Na recipe that Chaotic altered me... but before then kneeing Jack in the balls after he tried to hug me, then doing it again when he tried to do it again...
SATURDAY:
~Doing like 5 gold worth of shots at 9:30 in the morning. Drinking seemed to be Ava's way to get more amusement out of everything that was going on..
~Magic lesson with Carlotta! Learning that it's actually something sitting on your shoulder when you cast Wyvern Watch!
~Right after the lesson getting pulled outside by Ming and YELLED AT FEROCIOUSLY talking to Wormwood....and also finding out that somehow it had become a rumor that Jack actually choked me.
~Later being pulled(More like thrown...) aside by James Hellock and yelled at again and being warned that if he saw me talking to Wormwood again I'd pretty much get effed up. And that they had heard from someone that Ava's intentions were to have "relations" with Wormwood. I'm not sure where that rumor came from, but it's interesting none the less.
~ Talking to Wormwood anyway, and having him thank me for something I had said.
~Feast was yummy yummy yummmmmmm.
~ Getting drunk again and making the mistake of asking a member of ostcliff to find out secrets about someone else in ostcliff in exchange for marriage..
~Everyone continuing to warn Ava about Wormwood....which she keeps blowing off because of her own personal amusement with the man....
~Seeing Ming and Darson sit down with Wormwood and start talking, becoming so paranoid about it that she found the nearest able scholar to write her scrolls that allow her to be not so truthful....
~Trying to figure out what the conversation was about but not really succeeding.
SUNDAY:
NPC shift:
~ MERCHANT MOD WAS SO AWESOME I EVEN GOT A PIGGY BACK RIDE. I had so much fun. Even though I got waylayed twice and both times I fell for it it turned from a fake fall into a real fall because of hills.
After NPC shift:
~ Having Ming saying hello to someone next to me but he just looked at me and walked away, then hearing there was talk of possible dis-ownment....
~Talking to Zai while keeping an eye on Wormwood. Which led to this conversation:
Zai leans in : "Your father's bodyguard keeps staring at me"
Ava looks behind her finally noticing James who was giving her a death glare
Ava: "Oh don't worry, he's staring at me"
(Apparently he had been staring at me for like twenty minutes)
OVERALL:
Receiving my first RP point
I can't wait to see how all of this develops and whether or not Ava will get out of all of this unscathed. Seeing whether she will still be a Na at the end of all of this and seeing if she had mislaid her trust with certain people.
I won't be at the alt event but I will be there in April! Thanks for the great game guys!

If by "people tried waking me up" you mean "Tori screamed at the top of her lungs for me all the way from the tower field to the inn while running with Goley over one arm" then yes, that is correct.

Friday: NPC Shift: Ben and Kristen did a very good job getting us ready for first shift. I mean as soon as Lay-On was called we were right there!
Friday Night: Takouri Met new people to game Krom and Onyx (also pledges to Ostcliff)
Got to tagteam with my great friend Yusef, hanging with Yusef is always a good time
Saturday: Woke up just in time for the Guild Meeting got to chance to see people i havnt seen in months! Tahlia and Peter and I cant forget Demitri! Meeting kept getting interupted by the need of helping people rid of those damn frost giants -_- not fun
As a Warden of Ostcliff my hard work and dedictation did not get unoticed I was honored with a ring of the best silver with a dragon on it to assist my training of becoming a Sith. THANK YOU EVERYONE!
After that Takouri taught his first lesson of strength to Gin(Josh Labar) the RP was great and I feel what was better was that i taught a lesson within a lesson
Takouri enjoyed the Warden and Vanguard training Zero,Wolfgar,and Yusef had some great ideas which helped out soo much during the main battle against the Ice Wolves.
Sunday: Lets just say Oakroot and Kane WHY DID YOU OPEN THE BOX!!!
Had a great escort mission with Toravisu,Oakroot,Kane,Emar,Typhon,Zero,Winks,Maddam Ping and many more. Thank you for the healing maddam ping without you Takouri would have been stranded with broken limbs and most likey dead.
Overall Amazing Event Thank You All

NPC Shift: Matt White--I loved getting to talk with you and RP for Paladin Plot even though we had to stand out in the cold for a ridiculous amount of time. In the end, I think your overall objective went fantastic.
Big Highlights:
~Dr. Maxwell treating melancholy and OCD was probably one of the funniest interactions I have had yet for my treatment sessions. Every interaction with you was amazing. I'm glad I can call you a friend now officially IG. Hopefully when I finish scholar, we will be able to talk about those physician lessons you promised. :cool:
~Gideon talks and lesson. I love talking to you Geoff--your character is just a wonderful delight to converse with. Your lesson, while harsh, is probably for the best for Aemorniel. We will have to see if it sticks.
~Learning everything I had set out to learn this event
~Befriending Lady Elawyn after finishing my mini-quest before learning the Druidic Tradition. Talking with all your students really made Aemorniel fall in love with the Druidics because of it.
~Research Party! Y'all know they outshine sleepovers and tea parties combined
~Studying in the Library with Almat and then Belegchand arriving. The three of us did rather well on our own if I do say so myself.
~Befriending more dragoons. Particularly amused by Vyth'Nar asking if he could have me as a pet. I do so hope for more interactions, my friend.
~Vyth'Nar introducing me to the Lord and Lady of Allisandria and them asking me to take my very own research project for them. You don't know how honored she is do have her first personal research project be requested by such upstanding nobility.
~Misaki saying he would be my bodyguard, later on telling me his lord ORDERED him to be my bodyguard. Even with all the ridiculousness that is before you, Cy, I hope you know Aemorniel really was happy when you rescued her. Your words to her will stick with her for a long time. She really did mean it when she said she felt safe with you.
Best quote of that moment would be after Aemorniel collapsed from exhaustion and Misaki held her up.
Aemorniel: ....you came...
Misaki: Of course I did. What kind of Guardian would I be otherwise.
~Using Infravision for the first time. Goddamn I've been dying for an excuse to use it.
~Using a Mind Citadel against Tsoli's attempted Charm while my apathy insanity was on. Your face was PRICELESS when I called that defense.
~Using Resist on an attempted Hex on me. Seriously. After all Aemorniel went through that night, she was not putting up with anymore bullshit she didn't have to.
Other bits:
While I adored the fact dark elf stuff happened, I really really really wish all that, plus getting arrested, Aemorniel feeling like she was no longer welcome by her family, the attempted hex upon her didn't happen one right after the other. It's a bit much to put on one person in a short time period. The stress it caused me IG and OOG seriously made it stop being fun to PC after such a long day. It's hard to balance playing a character the way I am told/supposed to when I am told I have this to look forward to on a regular basis. As such--she is in hiding until further notice.

At one point, one wolf decided to flee, and Caelvan and I tracked it until it ran too far. When we came back, Archer was displeased.
A:"We were told to kill every single thing we come across! Go find it now and kill it!"
K: -becoming infuriated- "But it ran away! It won't harm us anymore!"
Had a shouting match until Keavy started growling and Bran had to hold her back.
