Happy St. Patrick's Day!
I love St. Patty's Day, I really do. It's the Irish in me! It's funny, though, I just started reading some plays by W.B. Yeats, who is very Irish, and I didn't do it on purpose, either! So, where's the gold?
Anyway, what St. Patrick's Day really means for me is that my birthday's tomorrow. *Dancedancehappydance* Like I predicted, I am very excited! Very.
Other than that, beneath the cut is an update on DnD news!
Okay, So. We have a game. The plot is very on the fly and stereotypical. Necromancers are stealing evil objects to take over the world, ect, ect. The characters are, so far:
Mecaser, Level 4: Male Half-elf Druid grew up with Rin in Druidia.
Amariniana (Rin) Level 4: Female Halfling Rogue grew up with Mecaser, likes stabbing things. A lot. (My baby.)
These were the original two, played by me and Chantell, but we both made two other characters later. The others are:
Kelithia, Level 4: Female Human Fighter. She's got the whole ran away from home and now I'm a Mercenary thing going. She likes beating up stuff, but is afraid of pain. That's okay; we use her as the punching bag, anyway.
Citalli, Level 4: Yay! This is my new baby. She's a Female Elven Sorceress. She's really, really sweet, she looks about 17, she's blonde and beautiful, and her main powers--- acid and fire and demonic creatures and necromancy. Her future death power word: "Daisy"
Okay, so Rin and Mecaser are from the same town, Druidia. Rin is and orphan who was found and raised in Druidia, and Mecaser saved her from all the bullies. They became best friends. At around 20, Rin needed to meet other halflings and went out into the world. She found a halfling named Lyle and he was her teacher and lover for three years, but she was in love with Mecaser, and couldn't lie. Mecaser found a half-elf druid girlfriend and fell in love with her. She left. When Rin came back, Mecaser and Rin went into the forest to gather berries and catch up. They were gone practically the whole day, and when they saw smoke they went back. Druidia, and all its inhabitants were dead.
So, they went into the nearest city, desperate for any work. Shady asks them to get artifact in exchange for info about who burned down their town. They get captured by the bandits who have the artifact, but Rin escapes her ropes, frees Mecaser, and they sneak out with the artifact. When they get back, shady guy is gone. Inquisitor dudes come and ask if they have the artifact, which is really an evil relic. Rin is stupid and says no. Rin and Mecaser go around beating up orcs and goblins for a while, and come back and Kelithia joins their group. They go to the church and hand over the relic, priestly guy says to go to the woods where the bandits were because the Inquisitors are there. He also dumps a lode of gold on us.
They go, beat up some bugbears, bond, and find a bandit camp, a prisoner (Citalli) and no Inquisitors. Rin is all sneaky, (at level 3 she has 15 in the hide skill, now she has 17) and cuts Citalli loose while the others fight the bandits. Battle ensues, Citalli comes out with her stuff and shoots magic missiles at a guy, experiencing the elven "Oh, no I just attacked some one" thing. They win and take two prisoners (much to Rin's dismay, she just wanted to stab'em) and the Inquisitors show up.
Guess what? They say we should have left it with the church! So, we all go back to the church, and go down to the vaults to put the artifact away. Some of the vaults are open. So, council peruses, the priestly guys play "Let's state the obvious" and eventually our adventurers are stuck helping these guys. Again. Remember, all of these adventures are either CN or N.
So, they are loaded with truth potions and sent down the river to the next big city where the forces of this whole thing are camping out. They need to find info, let’s just say with a beautiful negotiator elf, a lying halfling, a diplomatic half-elf, and a fighter who is maxed in intimidate, we’ll be good. So, on our way down the river (it was either the big friendly city where Kelithia ran away from (ha ha she has to face her parents!) or enemy territory in the mountains) a water troll comes on board. Citalli hits it with scorching ray, Rin slings at it, Mecaser shoots it with an arrow, and Kelithia misses. Then Citalli hits it with yet another scorching ray (her cool new spell) Rin charges and sneak attacks, cutting out its hamstring, and Mecaser puts and arrow into it. Ha ha! Nope. Soon enough they figure out that only magic (actually, fire and acid, what do ya know?) can do non-healing damage. So Rin stabs it to near death with her dagger (she liked that) and Citalli sends acid down its throat, and Mecaser sets it on fire with a fire orb. Cool.
I love our game. I really do. Anyway, that's where we are so far. Me and Chantell also do little rp dialogue sessions and stuff.
I really love my babies. Rin is so violent and Citalli is so peaceful. Until she melts your face off.
Ta-ta for now!
