The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

I didn't even try posting yesterday. If it tells you how bad off I was, I literally forgot my own name at one point. :/

Yeesh. You mind internet hugs?

Those are the best kind :)

*gives Lyn an internet hug*

*more internet hugs*

Has it been only about a day since the events in Ginni's mind and Phaezeriel going into a cocoon?

I believe so.

I am *pretty* sure all of that occurred on the same day as Ace finally tracked and dealt with Repp which was on Friday. We are still on Saturday.

*hug* Hey there, because finals is fast approaching, posting will be spotty this week and nonexistent the week after that. Just a PSA, I'll be fine.

Yes, we are still on Saturday in game.

And no worries about slow posting through the holiday season. I totally understand. School comes first and all that for those studying for finals. And for the rest of us, this is usually a pretty hectic month anyways. Slow posting is expected. And hopefully things will be able to speed up again after New Year. :)

Speaking of:

When they were near the city, but not quite inside its protection, Tyrrin and Ghalen were attacked by a group of guards wearing leaf pins and wearing masks, which made sense as soon as they threw down a smoke bomb.

Make a DC 25 Fort save vs poison. If you make the save then these guys have no chance. They are in way over their heads. Feel free to narrate how you wipe the floor with them.

Tyrrin is doubled over coughing and cannot seem to get a proper breath.

;P

Just ducking my head in to wish everyone a Happy Holidays!

Tease!!

But thanks!

You could duck your head in longer and post for your character? :P

Just ducking my head in to wish everyone a Happy Holidays!

And to you and yours as well, good sir! (^-^)

I mean, it wouldn't be fair to everyone if I couldn't commit to it. As much as I would like to play I don't know if I could stick with it.

He did it to himself!

Doubly so, because he's the one that showed the additional graveknight rules! XD

Aaaaand the lich walks the land again. The monk's saving throw was the highest he could roll and still fail the check(a 4).

What a fun way to throw a "To be continued..." on the game night XD

Sorry it took me a while, but I'm finally on Christmas Break, and I can post now!

Hey, you could always try with just one or two of your old characters. That might not be as big of a time commit. Just a thought, neh? ;)

Anywhoo - safe and happy holiday!! (^-^)

Happy holidays, all! :)

I should have time to post tomorrow assuming the fever goes down. I am in Christmas hell. So much to do and now the fever and vomiting to make sure I can’t do any of it. >.<

LOL then that nefarious natural 1 on a save rears it's ugly head...

Oh, snap!

Well, back to the original version of the script then....I'd made plans for changes assuming that Ghalen would keep them from getting Tyrrin...silly me! ;)

And I haven't forgotten the dimensional anchor. It's just that two of the exact same spell are layered on top of each other as the handcuffs also have a dimensional anchor effect, which is largely the point of them. Well, that and causing the demon to be revealed for what she is.

I wasn't sure if the manacles had the same affect or not, so Ace wanted to make sure, just in case. He's not exactly the type to leave that sort of thing to chance.

Crap. I forgot Ghalen is wearing his armor. He wouldn't be effected by that crap.

I hate when you forget immunities or resistances, especially in an important scene.

LOL then that nefarious natural 1 on a save rears it's ugly head...

So much hate for this dice generator.....

So, com chatter in 3 rounds then, I guess? ;P

Indeed.

So we've got three rounds of potential answers from Ace's spell before Fei gets Ghalen's transmission about Tyrrin's kidnap.

I suppose that's a pretty good pre-holiday cliffhanger - fingers crossed for good intel! (^-^)

DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUN

This is going to cause a character flaw in Ghalen I bet.
"Why didn't I seal my helmet!??!"

Happy crimbo

Happy Christmas folks!

Love you guys, and I hope you have a great day.

+1 to that. Happy Xmas all!!!

[Raises mug full of good cheer]

(^-^)

Just finished the Harry Potter books after a childhood of parental restriction on said. My feels hurt a lil bit. They've been overworked.

Happy New Year gang! May it be a good one.

[Evades fireworks]

;P

HAPPY NEW YEAR, MAY IT BE AS EPIC AND AWESOME(but with less drama, lol) AS AVALON IS!!!

Happy New Years, folks! I hope it's great for all of y'all. <3

Out of sheer curiosity, does anybody want to play a powerful(like artifact level) intelligent item that blends the personality of Uncle from Jackie Chan Adventures with Iroh?

I'm going to ask in a few games I'm in, to try and get the best choice :)

*stumbles into thread*

Is Winter Break over yet? *eye twitches*

Not yet. Kidlet goes back to school on Monday. Husband goes on work trip on Monday. So I get time without being interrupted every five minutes! Woo! ;P

It sounds like we need to clone you Lyn, and then turn the original into some sort of intelligent, powerful undead so you no longer have all your medical issues :)

lol. Yeah, that sounds about right. :P

*lurks*

*reads through game thread to get things moving again*
*wonders what the actual fricky-frack I was thinking*

Alright, let's see what we can do here.....this is going to take an extra load of bovine manure to get through.... ;P

Hey Lyn, there's a few scenes I'm in with my other(non Ace) PCs that I feel have stalled.

If, in order to make things easier for you, you wanna just full on narrate the rest of the scenes with Silinurl and Ardiente, feel free. I think I'm good on input in both of hem, at least for right now.

Sil will continue to help Asha for as long as she'd like, and will likely spend the rest of the day/evening with her, regardless of what they do.

Same with Ardi, I don't see him leaving Raelle's side, unless he's has to.(Her parents or fam, etc ask him for some privacy). If he needs to go with her out into the firebird gather, I'll RP that, if necessary :)

Basically, I'm OK with whatever happens(more or less) with these two, as long as it makes your life easier :)

Thanks, MG. I think we can relegate Sil and Asha to off-screen for a while. Repetitive practice isn't all that entertaining. We can just assume training montage. And the whole friends with benefits thing has to be off-screen too, so better off all round this way. ;)

I'm going to post a sum-up for the firebird stuff once I get the equinox festival stuff sorted. But that's mostly watching and reactions and such since they're stuck being spectators for the events, so yeah, not a lot of action, but I do need to post what happened.

I'm going to try and do a run-down of what my characters are all doing so I can sort out who is doing what where as that is the biggest delay I have going on right now as every time I start to post I end up going, wait, where were they? What were they doing again?
The dangers of running a cast of dozens....

Itching to play with adon again.

Sorry for the delay. I had an unexpected medical issue. Better now.

Character roll call:
Aananda: On bed rest, making lesson plans, worrying about her family

Alev, Etain, and Elektra: The boys are trying to distract Elektra as she waits for news about her dad (if wishcraft was going to work to bring him back mentally speaking) and/or news about the trial of lord and lady del Sol. Currently in the SIM room running through training exercises because she can't keep still

Andromeda: Hanging out with Jasper, having dancing lessons. Not sure there's really a lot more to do there before the party starts.

Asha: training and other things with Sil

Bradley: Brooding. So much brooding. Also sending a message to some associates about some things. But mostly brooding. He is not cut out for this. Cheerful, goofy archangel should not be brooding....

Chara, Ignace, and Pyra: In the SIM rooms, elementary school version, having some swimming lessons in hot springs to cheer up the girls after yesterday's scare with Raelle getting kidnapped.

Dara and Sadie: Okay, so best I can find, Dara is in the library along with Sadie. I think Fei was with him for awhile? Maybe....not sure I'm remembering that correctly. It was before Fei left for the festival. Anyhoo, Sadie was with Adon and Djalos, helping Adon research what he can find out about his condition. And Dara doesn't really trust Adon or Djalos, so he's mostly hiding from them. Oh, and I think Melody is there too? Djalos went to get her and I assume they actually arrived. I think?

Dennis:Factories are closed today, so he gets a 'break' of sorts....only problems in Kuros itself to solve....Dennis never really gets time off.

Ephebe: This is complicated. She's sort of in two places at once right now. Or will be shortly. Time travel, ugh. Current time Ephebe has been taking care of some of her demon lord responsibilities. Yesterday's Ephebe is about to make a grave error.

Sorchan, Fieri, James: Firebird meeting. Fi just got bad news about her mom. The meeting is currently in chaos and had to be adjourned for an hour. James is only here briefly to get Fi and take her back home. I need to write up what happens after (the trial, voting on a system of governance, etc)

Ginni: Doing some research in the library to help Jessa. Also looking up some stuff for herself to help with shapeshifting

Jaiye: Looking for Ehos. Currently handcuffed to a succubus. Life about to get even more complicated in 3....2....1....

Janie: Er......wellll.....she was practicing her drums during the morning. And after that I've got exactly nothing. She'll be at the party later. I know that much. I kind of lost track of her in between.

Jeran: Out to dinner with Kevin on a maybe date except he doesn't really know that it's a date because he's totally oblivious and not good at social interactions. Much awkward, very angst.

Keme: Playing in the garden with his grandfather, Alys, and Serrin also joined in the game. Has noticed that the girl he has the beginnings of a crush on is also outside. As usual cannot for the life of him figure out how to actually talk to her, so is pretending that he didn't see her. Again. (Someday Keme and Cindra will actually have a conversation...well....okay, conversation is probably taking it a bit far. He tends to forget how to language when in the presence of a girl he likes. :P)

Kitty and Nanami: Gone home (to Sasaki) for a visit. Kitty is showing Michael around her hometown. And introducing him to the rest of the family. Including all the cousins. Many traps and pranks ensue. Shinobi practical jokes tend to require antitoxin.

Miss Jones: Having an identity crisis. Also not dealing well with the death of one of her students.

Morrivan: Just finished an awkward interaction with Igni. He gave her a crystal to help focus her bending. Currently at loose ends.

Nala: With Ryuzo. Just finished setting up stuff with Krays for her upcoming death/surgery, which will happen once Phaeze is out of his cocoon

Ori: Supervising Lang and Gareth as they tackle the research project/map that is Gareth's book

Pan: In town, setting up some things after he ended up with some free time after a date gone bad

Phaedra: outside playing, with her cousin Cindra. Lang was also part of their game before he got called away to work with Gareth. Can't remember if anyone else was in this group.

Raelle: At the hangar with Ardiente, learning her way around mission control by deploying a spy drone to eavesdrop on the firebird meeting. Also will be spending some time working on the mechs.

Ryleh: Potentially still giving Havel a tour, or he said goodbye and she is at loose ends. I don't know.

Lyzzie: Talking with Arthur and Maya. Dixulri was also there and she acknowledged him, but then I think that he missed the post.

Tami: Enjoying a day off before the proverbial excrement hits the proverbial fast spinning thing

Okay. So now that I know where everyone is I should be able to start getting posts up. Tomorrow. For sure, barring any more unexpected medical problems.

Posted this on Nov 29th, which was after an initial in game post:

::"Hello, my name is Dixulri, I'm new here. May I sit with you?":: He asks telepathically. Floating next to him is a tray full of food.

I think this reply got missed, as it was pretty late after Lizzy's. Still trying to work out a persona for Dix, plus it's tricky playing a mute, even if he's telepathic.

I should probably take stock as well.

Archena is probably working on art. She doesn't have very many friends yet, and isn't really interested in firebird politics. Open

Hermes should be with Arthur, but I cannot for the life of me remember where that is. With Melody? Maybe they're in the library?

Jasper is hanging out with Andromeda. I'm cool with waiting til the party too. We've played it out, it seems.

Kevin is on a date(?) with Jeran. Extra emphasis on ?. I'd capitalize it, if that was possible.

Lewis is with Tarka. Tarka is? Open conditionally.

Lim-mor is hating himself and his life and being the emo little angsty boy I made him to be back at Avalon. Unaware that he missed an invasion which would have given him a chance to kill people and heal others freely, so 2/3s of him is gonna have an even worse time when he finds out.

Rakki is trying to write a song that actually means something. Open

Sara is probably doing something irresponsible. I have ideas for that. Open

Tybalt is with Dave at lunch, though the conversation is winding down and could be skipped to the party.

Shiro is either counseling folks or grading papers. Open

Mr. Strider is being his usual, sneaky self. Who knows where he is. Kinda wish people would try harder to figure him out.
