This past Realms weekend was *amazing* It brought so much emotion to Trista, like never before. The event started out a bit slow, until we did the Shadows of the Mist thingy. I only went on one trail because I was dedicated to finding the things that we needed to perform this ritual. Hanging out with some random Phoenix members and close friends was a joy because we talked about something different then the realm ending, trying not to be depressed and upset. I did not go to bed at all on Friday night/Saturday morning, so me, tommy and nick went out and searched for the brown fucking ring, in the brown fucking forest. We were out from about 5am-ish on guard duty, until Melissa and Jim came back with the blue stick of solnus. Then we went out for about 2 hours to find the brown ring in the brown forest. It sucked because we didn't find squat. I wanted to be the one to find the ring, oh how so much I would have been a hero for finding that ring and saving the realm! That would have been awesome, but it was not ment to be. Anyways, I went on more adventures and stuff on Saturday, but not many because it was way to hot. I was fine as long as I wasn't in the sun for long periods of time. Yay for Under Armour! Everyone must by some! I only was dying of heat on high noon saturday. Other then that, I was fine all weekend :-) Grail came back! Yay! I wanted to hug him but he probably would think that I was a weirdo because he probably didn't remember me. *sigh* He was only at the first event that I had ever been to, then he left but he came back this market day! He told me that alot of people had issues with him and some other Raptus members, but it's in the past now and he's gonna come back more often! He also passlored me Wither Heart, which was totally hot! Trino and Lavinia came too! Trista hugged them when she saw them. Yay for kids! The seance was amazing. Meg, Amy, Eric and the Bards guild did an awesome job. Seances are cool! That was my second one ever. The final battle was amazing, because for once, we had enough healers/restorers/returners that I could go out on my own and be amazing. I had mana misdirect, throw proof, projectile proof and mana buffs. So, when I went out there, I immediately withered an orges heart, then I met up with Orion and he was my meat shield :-) Trista and Orion work really good together and it's fun being around him. Trista busts his chops all the time. Withering hearts around Grail was awesome. He was like, "Yeah baby! That's how you use it" as a goblin and an orge fall on the floor. Sunday morning. Oh man! The emotion was so great around the area. Rinan, Gwen, Eric, Pandora, Trista and everyone else crying then my heart being torn apart when we found out the that realm survived by the Elves are mostly dead. Tears running down my eyes, holding a close friend in my arms. The emotion was great. NPCs and Rich were all amazingly awesome. So, that was my weekend highlights for the most part. Learning Wither Limb, Death and Undead Mastery was awesome, only 5 away from mastery and learning 3 more mana in July *plots evil schemes* Teaching is always my favorite part of the game. Teaching a TON of mana, Axes I and some other stuff. It was alot of fun and I CAN NOT WAIT until I reach mastery so I can get instruct. I want instruction damnit! That's the only reason why I want to be a master! ...and of course to make scrolls, another recover and augment couldn't hurt...and oh yeah..my new FAVORITE spell...wither heart ;-)

all i have to say is that as i walked up to the town after the fate was read a real tear fell down my cheek... it made me realize how attached to this realm i am... and how much i care about it and all the players and characters and the game itself...
i hope everyone had a good time and we gave them a good show

You know, bix. The orcs of the past were not running around at the fall of evermoore screaming "Solnus is dead!" for nothing.

Lets just say this: "We saved the realm yes...but at what price?"
Things got tough this weekend, and the true limits of peoples characters were pushed. Things got rougher and people started breaking emotionally. I was either crying, or fighting. We saved the Realm...but what will our Payment of the carnage be?
Lavinia is currently traveling with the Dooms to see if any Elves survived. So if I'm not there, you all know why. But that chance is slim to none.

okay question. how did we save the realm but still have a bomb sent that took out all the low/high elves.
was the brown ring connected to there living place (sorry don't know name) and thats why only that area was affected, or did we just get lucky (as a whole) and when Tony roled the D100 it just landed on "low/high elves" instead of realm.

But we didn't save the realm. The bad aim of the Shaggothes is what saved us. If we truely saved the realm we would have done more than just recover the tablet. We would have activated the tablet and the realm spire. If we saved the realm, the elven home land would still be just as beautiful as it always was, not a smoldering crater. We have 6 more months to save the realm. 6 more months until the shaggothes drop another bomb. If a 3rd bomb is dropped there will be a 60% chance of the realm ending. We still need to activate the tablet, find the realm spire, and then charge the spire. Let's hope the town doesn't table these decisions again.

wait 3rd bomb? i thought only one was droped?
also we all should be happy because the same type of bomb we used to destroy the Serventor homeworld could have been droped on us, thus ending our realm.

The fist of grotar has been revealed to be a shaggothe bomb. This event would be the 2nd. The 3rd bomb would be in about 6 months from now.
A geoglogy card in the inn stated that geologists have calculated the force produced by the "fist of grotar" and a second strike of equal force would have a 40% chance of destroying the realm. a 5th strike of equal force would have 100% chance. Also- it took 5 bombs to destroy the serventor realm (feel free to correct that last sentance. I read it at 2:30 am while helping a dehydrated kid. Also- damia doesnt have geology- its just something i read to pass the time). I also believe there was a rumors card saying something like the geology card.

Out of game, I'm not sure whether to count the realm saved or not, in-game Rain thinks he failed and the realm wasn't saved. Now has no real home anymore since he promised Thelia he wouldn't come back unless the realm was saved.
Rich made a really good weekend. Most of the NPCs were great.... but there were some problems with some but that's to be expected. December is going to be intense, I'm definetly PCing then.

hopfully things won't come down to the wire again, i'd not want to see another bomb land on our golden realm.
also quick history question the "fist of grotar" was launched for one of the five (notis?) kill a nexus after it tried to kill one of the five?
