But first, the WHO list at the start. *who Heiach the chimerical wizard Spamton the guardian Galandra the necromancess Forley the weakest necromancer Gaia the necromancess Drizzle the wobbly mage Zanthia the guest Once the bash started was the first surprise. The first was one of Heiach's 'reset remixes' being worked in, meaning that there would be a few mobiles and items that we don't usually see. For example, two magpies, a knight, a mimic, a repaired barge, and a shield. So that brought some variety. The sound of rock splitting at the start of the set gave us plenty of time to prepare for giants. Spamton found a mallet while Galandra searched for the staff. Forley wasted no time disposing of the bees, but then, in the distance, we heard the whistling feedback of a failed finger of death spell. Sadly, Forley perished in a brave but unsuccessful attempt to FOD the golem. A moment of silence for our fallen companion. Still, life goes on, and so did the bash, with the following WHO list. *who Heiach the chimerical wizard Highfields the necromancer Spamton the guardian Galandra the necromancess Gaia the necromancess Drizzle the wobbly mage Highfields replaced Forley in the bash, while Galandra went fox hunting and then stag hunting. Spamton, meanwhile, dealt with the coot and the dove, while Gaia and Highfields took out the basilisk. Everyone made it to the pillar setup, while Heiach's vote for bash general concluded. It was a toss-up between Forley's corpse and Gaia. Forley's corpse won, but since Forley's corpse was unable to do any of the things associated with bash generals (such as shouting about what mobiles are left), Gaia ended up with the bash general prefix. *who Heiach the chimerical wizard Highfields the necromancer Spamton the guardian Galandra the necromancess Gaia the bash-general necromancess Drizzle the wobbly mage *Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "the thing that freaked me out was.. at the exact moment Forley fodded, I had fodded too". *Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "I thought I killed him!". *A male voice in the distance shouts "lol". *Gaia the dragonfly-slaying, bash-general necromancess shouts "lol". Presumably, whatever Heiach fodded was something the mortals would have had too much trouble disposing of. As it turns out, this was a complete coincidence, and had nothing to do with Forley's tragic accident. [b]Zombies, rats, and snakes[/b] Zombies were gathering at the bank of the river, but Galandra and Gaia were ready to take them on. They brought down a great many zombies before turning their attention to skeleton1. Galandra reasoned that the fight would go faster if the two of them teamed up to take down the skeleton, and after a while, the following happened: *You hit the skeleton1 (15-19). The skeleton1 looks close to expiry. The skeleton1 hits you (33/120). The skeleton1 has fled by trying to go northeast. You can fight him no longer. A smallish, well-maintained pickaxe has been dropped here. *k sk You attack the skeleton1. *Highfields the necromancer has just arrived. *Highfields the necromancer has just left. *You hit the skeleton1 (15-19). You have killed the skeleton1. (Persona saved on +226 = 35,638). The skeleton1 falls apart. Spamton, meanwhile, searched for the longsword under the well, but only found the water-snakes. He would very nearly wear out the dagger while dealing with the water-snakes, and look for a better weapon afterward. Gaia took out the dragonfly, and then disposed of most of the rats. One rat eluded Gaia, though none of us knew it at the time (but I'll get to that later). Gaia then offered the coal to Galandra, who knew what to do with it. [b]Sailing, giant realm, and rough fights[/b] Galandra sailed to the ship wrecked at the vicious rocks, where she found some things she would need to dispose of a few mobiles later on. While she was at sea, she fed the dragon with something that would cause the delayed reaction non-combat death as described in the grimoire's list of Tasks. At the area before the shrine, giant1 was doing her civic duty clearing out some overgrown vegetation, when she suddenly encountered a fire and an explosive. Unfortunately, giant1 didn't notice these until too late, and went all to pieces. Galandra, meanwhile, fought with Goblin13, before hearing the distant RHOAAAUUUAURRRRGGGGGGHGHHHGHHHH of a dragon dying. Spamton obtained the longsword, just in time to use against the goat. He was surprised that the goat knew how to retreat. Before venturing into the pagoda, Spamton got rid of a raven. After reaching the pagoda, Spamton found that ape10 was a strong opponent, but still managed to prevail. At some point, Gaia and Highfields managed to rid the evil wood of the vampire and the wraith. Highfields killed the wraith, while Gaia finished the vampire off after it fled from a fight. Gaia also finished off zombie10. Gaia also did the keep, encountered the knight, and used the shield until it broke. Gaia suspects the fight with 12 crows might have played a factor. Galandra, meanwhile, fought with several goblins and chickens in the goblin dwellings who fled a lot. One of the chickens survived long enough to flee to the bull pen, and Galandra ended up getting in a fight with a bull and using up wafers. After the fight with the bull, Galandra was in a hurry to track down the remaining chicken and the drake. She did, but she lost track of her stamina and ran into one of the two five-goblin bands that roam the area. She was forced to flee before she could finish off all of them. While Galandra rested and recovered, Highfields was off disposing of a few other mobiles. At some point, Highfields disposed of the spider as well as the viper. He also fought with fissure goblins. Galandra soon recovered, and took out goblin17 before finishing off the goblin groups and recovering her lost items. Soon, the following message was announced. *For your information: there are 100 mobiles still alive. (Persona saved on +150 = 38,703). *Heiach the chimerical wizard roars. You have just been woken up! Your stamina is 111. *reset Time-stamp: 21:36:04 on 11-JUL-2024. This is reset 116332, using slot 0. An auto-reset will be initiated in approximately 69 minutes. Galandra would then announce to the rest of The Land "Lion can't make it this set. He got swamped. :)" Galandra would return to the garden area to deal with the swan. (Gaia, meanwhile, got rid of the boar). [b]Pagoda and dwarfs[/b] At this point, people were working hard to reduce the mobile count, with Gaia dealing damage to dwarfs. With the mobile count reduced to 75 mobiles in 64 minutes, Spamton chose to fight ape9. Galandra, meanwhile, took out ape0. Highfields fought giant2 (and also at some point took down giant3). After Galandra finished ape0, there was a great dissension among the apes with the loss of their leader. This became clear around the time Galandra was just about to finish off ape4. The ape4 looks close to death. *Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "ape3 attacks ape2, ape5 attacks ape1". *You miss the ape4. The ape4 misses you. Your magical strength has worn off. *You hit the ape4 (1-4). The ape4 looks close to death. The ape4 misses you. *You hit the ape4 (5-9). You have killed the ape4. (Persona saved on +128 = 39,092). The ape4 has just passed on. Spamton heard Heiach's announcement about the apes fighting each other along with everyone else, as well as the announcement that ape2 was now worth 153 points. But Spamton decided he didn't have time for that monkey business - because Spamton's got some monk-y business to deal with. Gaia got past several dwarf guards, and made it to the king's treasure chamber. Galandra would take out the snowy mountainside and low forest area mobiles, and return to the pagoda to help dispose of the remaining mobiles on the ground floor. Gaia and Galandra took out the tiger, and then finished off the giant snake as Highfields moved on to the upper floors of the pagoda. [b]Great progress made[/b] At this point, the mobile count got really low, and Heiach was surprised that the spider was already dead at this point (as usually, it's one of the last five mobiles left). *Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "woa spider already dead??". *i You are carrying the following: the rice flail, the bow and 2 keys. Weight carried: 3kg/100kg. Objects carried: 4/12. *wh spider Your spell doesn't find any. *A male voice in the distance shouts "yeah, it ate something it didn't enjoy". *Gaia the dragonfly-slaying, bash-general necromancess shouts "thats what i thought". *Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "you guys have monstered this reset". *reset Time-stamp: 21:58:24 on 11-JUL-2024. This is reset 116332, using slot 0. An auto-reset will be initiated in approximately 47 minutes. *sv 19 alive, 294 dead. Indeed, everyone had made incredible progress for a bash with both pagoda and giants open. Gaia returned to the dwarf realm to look for leftover dwarfs while Highfields finished the pagoda. Galandra realized that both the piglet and the hunchback were still lurking around the scriptorium. The piglet was found early, but the hunchback was elusive in that maze. But finally, she fought the hunchback and brought him down. *You hit the hunchback (15-19). You have killed the hunchback. (Persona saved on +147 = 40,118). The hunchback has just passed on. *sh Piglet and hunchback gone! You shout "Piglet and hunchback gone!". *sv 7 alive, 306 dead. *sv 7 alive, 306 dead. *Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "7 alive!". *reset Time-stamp: 22:05:29 on 11-JUL-2024. This is reset 116332, using slot 0. An auto-reset will be initiated in approximately 40 minutes. One of the seven was shark1. Spamton went out to sea to help fight it, but it was already dead by the time he arrived. Soon the wolf went down, leaving only 5 mobiles left. [b]The Last Mobiles[/b] But who were the last ones left? A reference to a certain popular series of movies nudged Galandra in the right direction, and sure enough, she discovered the ogre had managed to last this long. After she brought down the ogre, it was time for the final four. These were Giant0, the golem, and two others. At this point, Heiach gave everyone the following reminder. Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "don't forget this is a remix too". With that in mind, Highfields went down the hole and encountered the mimic. Then it was decided to take down the golem. Galandra went to the ancient chamber, Gaia went to the hallowed chamber, and Spamton went to the shrine. Gaia entered the the sanctum and fought the golem. There were now just two mobiles remaining. Giant0 and one mystery mobile. With help from a certain musical instrument, Highfields soon discovered the mystery mobile was rat15, which was the rat that had eluded Gaia earlier in the set. [b]Final Boss Battle - Giant0[/b] Then it was time for the final showdown with Giant0. Highfields was joined by Galandra in the final boss fight, reproduced below: Galandra the dragon-slaying necromancess shouts "Final showdown time!" You hit the giant0 (15-19). The giant0 looks seriously injured. The giant0 hits you (48/120). You hear a stinging blow, as Highfields the giant-killing warlock hits the giant0 with his two-handed sword. You hear a swish, as the giant0 misses Highfields the giant-killing warlock with his axe2. *rf Your spell worked! You emit a bright magenta flash of light. You have suddenly and magically become fitter! *i You are wearing the following: the cowl. You are carrying the following: the ciborium, the rice flail, 2 keys and the bow. Weight carried: 7kg/100kg. Objects carried: 6/12. You are keeping any objects in your possession of the following types: ciborium and cowl. *You hear sinews tearing, as Highfields the giant-killing warlock hits the giant0 with his two-handed sword. You hear fast movement, as the giant0 misses Highfields the giant-killing warlock with his axe2. *You hit the giant0 (5-9). The giant0 looks critically injured. The giant0 misses you. *You hear a crack, as Highfields the giant-killing warlock hits the giant0 with his two-handed sword. You hear a parried blow, as the giant0 misses Highfields the giant-killing warlock with his axe2. *Highfields the giant-killing warlock has picked up the cardboard box1. *Highfields the giant-killing warlock has eaten a wafer12. *Highfields the giant-killing warlock has put the cardboard box1 in the bucket. *You hit the giant0 (5-9). The giant0 looks close to death. The giant0 misses you. You hear a slicing sound, as Highfields the giant-killing warlock hits the giant0 with his two-handed sword. You hear a parried blow, as the giant0 misses Highfields the giant-killing warlock with his axe2. *You hit the giant0 (1-4). The giant0 looks close to death. The giant0 hits you (19/120). *ql foe The giant0 looks close to death. *You hit the giant0 (10-14). The giant0 looks close to death. The giant0 misses you. *Highfields the giant-killing warlock looks quickly at the giant0. *You hear a dull thud, as Highfields the giant-killing warlock hits the giant0 with his two-handed sword. You have killed the giant0. (Persona saved on +339 = 40,619). You feel as if a tremendous evil has been rid from The Land! No pawns of darkness sully it with their presence. The relief of generations of souls floods through your being! (Persona saved on +3,000 = 43,619). There is a giant, golden ring here, set with a firestone. Stretching out before you is a giant axe. The giant0 has just passed on. *c Highfields the giant-killing warlock cheers. *c A male voice in the distance cheers. *cheer You cheer. *sh Heiach the chimerical wizard roars. *sh SUPER-CHEER! You shout "SUPER-CHEER!". And so, with 27 minutes to spare, this bash was a great success! Galandra and Highfields stayed in The Land to swamp some treasure from the giant realm, before joining everyone else in the tearoom for the post-bash chat. *Spamton the guardian says "THE SWEET TASTE OF [Hyperlink Blocked]". The new mobiles introduced with the 'remix' had provided some challenge, mostly with finding them (though Gaia said the knight was hard). But the group of mobile bashers rose to the occasion, and gave one amazing bash. 27 minutes to spare, with pagoda and giants open, and active participants Gaia, Galandra, Spamton and Highfields. All in all, a fun bashing experience.
