[QUOTE=Magrus]Were those "unforseen events" fun? If so, good for you. :p [/QUOTE]
Well, the parts leading up to the events were. For an idea, refer to my chaotic bit of the web ;)

Those pictures are so much more mellow than the ones I was handed of the exploits 4th of July weekend. I don't even remember making tin foil hats for everyone in my drunken haze. :o

Did one of those young ladies incapacitate you? :p

The tiny one and myself went through two bottles of wine on our own, in addition to all the other lovely things we had to drink. Resulted in a bonfire, and me almost setting myself on fire. Besides, I'm not about to post the good photos online, now am I ;)

Indeed, not without getting in trouble. ;)

Fire and alcohol don't mix, add an alcohol soaked body, it isn't pretty. Ever have to put out a burning, drunk 15 year old young woman? That's not fun. :o

@Magrus: No, but I've had to coax an acid-filled teenager out of a tree. That was fun.

Anyway, posted finally. Hope you enjoy. Z, you can take the reigns for a bit, if you like.

Since I'm a bit confused (yes I know, surprise, surprise :D ) I just wanted to clarify what is happening in Windhaven.

Is it poised for an orcish invasion, or will the action be more centered around the area Magrus discovered?

I'm wondering if it wouldn't make some sense to keep the fighting outside of Windhaven itself, since it might be useful to have an initial base.

Thoughts?

Acid-filled teenager and trees don't mix. A friend of mine downed a handle of cheap vodka, a few hits of acid and his friends sat him down and played Faces of Death for him. Poor guy tweaked and thought he was IN the movie, chased everyone around in the woods with an axe. Swore off drugs and alcohol since. :eek:

@DW, I was wondering that myself, which was why I left it open. I had a few thoughts.

1. I scour the countryside to keep busy. Alone, or if someone in town wants to join up with me, that's fine. I'm heading back out though once I see to it the town is notified farms are being picked off.

2. There is an orcish army that besieges the town, those who are inside it rally to help the militia and guards defend it. Those who are still away from the town show up to hit the army from behind before meeting up with those in the town.

I'm up for anything, doesn't matter to me. Roaming around and picking off small groups is what my little gnome is perfect for. Large groups, he'll be in trouble with.

If you wish. I won't finish the fight though, but I might add a little twist if that's ok.

The Orcish army might head towards Windhaven once they figure out that AC and Sytze ran there and they'd probably try and raze the place to the ground.

EDIT - I changed my last post; I only changed the little girl's name. I decided to sever what could've been a connection between the child and the 'Arienna' from Tashara's memory because I think it'd be too fateful.

Real friends don't put movies like faces of death on when their friends are gorked out on psychedelics. It's too bad they had to spoil such good times for him. If only they had sat him in front of "Yellow Submarine". Pepperland is such a happy place.

Ha, needless to say, those people are still in hiding. My friend is a very large guy. :p And it's not if you're a schitzophrenic on shrooms. Oh, I hated playing nursemaid that night. :( "Call my mom, I'm freaking out!" :rolleyes:

I was going to write something up again this afternoon, but I've started working things out with the girl I broke up with back in october. My minds a chaotic mess at the moment. Anything I write would probably be a jumble of nonsense.

Someone expressed interest in joining in the story in the Citadel this morning, I pointed him to this thread to see what all of you thought of another joining in.

Maggie eh? Never seen that one before, I guess I should revisit SYM occasionally :D

Anyone can join, IMO. Of course, I don't make the decisions around here, but I think that it's so early in the story that almost anyone, at this point, could join in.

Schizo's eating pieces. Man, isn't there already enough going on upstairs in this case without adding enhancement. Sounds like self torture.

Also, on a lighter note, I agree with Z. Anyone should be able to join but they shouldn't be grandfathered in from being susceptible to extreme violence from Demortis. That way, if they step outta line, make one false move, boom, they're outta here.

Definately was a bad decision on that guys part.

Sounds good to me, I don't care personally, but it's a group effort, so I figured I'd put that up in case he decides to motivate himself to dig for the thread. :p

One of my numerous nicknames yes. Better than some though. :o

Is it necessary to point out I'm kidding about the Demortis bit. Of course, I can't control what comes out of his keyboard.

I'm a little thick...were you saying that if they step out of line, Demo can beat the daylights out of them? (jokingly of course)

He does seem to have loads of pent up frustration. It might be therapeutic. Where's Oozit when you need him?

Pent up frustration. Sounds like he needs to spend a weekend with you and your crew. Be sure to have a DVD playa handy. Seems to work wonders.

That's a scary, scary image... :eek:

EDIT - @Aegis...I'm working on one more post that deals more with the battle and less with character, just to let you know... :cool:
