Those who showed up for the bash were as follows: *who Zarquadon the sorceress Monmonnn the necromancer Dara the sorceress Drizzle the wobbly mage [b]Part One: Undead jamboree at the olive grove[/b] The bash got off to a quick start. Zarquadon rushed into The Land, and made a beeline twoards the maze (bashing a scorpion along the way), before eliminating the bees in the maze. Meanwhile, Dara fought the fox and the piglet, and caught the mouse in the inn. While Monmonnn dealt with the thief, Dara fought the magpie. The fireflies are mobiles that Dara usually doesn't bother with, but since this is a mobile bash, she dispatched them before getting in a fight with the ram. Monmonnn, meanwhile, found the jellyfish that had eluded him in a previous bash, and after that encounter, made preparations for the pillar. Dara found the raven and the dragonfly. Meanwhile, an undead jamboree had assembled in the olive grove, including one unarmed zombie who was dealing a suspiciously large amount of damage to Monmonnn. A male voice in the distance shouts "This zombie is doing incredible damage somehow". *A female voice in the distance shouts "probably the pick". A male voice in the distance shouts "Its unarmed!". Monmonnn managed to finish off the zombie nonetheless. Meanwhile, Dara fought with the basilisk, and finished it off. Zarquadon and Monmonnn soon showed up for the pillar. [b]Part Two: Two phials used, pagoda, and a loss[/b] Once the pillar was concluded, everyone went their separate ways. Dara killed the viper, but had to use up a phial to neutralize its venom. Meanwhile, Zarquadon spotted ape11 on the loose. Dara then grabbed anouther phial to finish off the spider, while Monmonnn went down to the cottage's cellar to deal with the infestation of rats. Zarquadon, meanwhile, went to the inside of the pagoda to face ape10 and ape8. Dara (after finishing the spider) would turn up to help Zarquadon finish off ape8. Monmonnn, meanwhile, found the, ahem, dragonbane, and then brought the wolf its nemesis. Dara fought ape0 while Zarquadon was fighting ape9 and the monk. After finishing with ape0, Dara headed in the direction of the food preparation area, in response to Zarquadon's announcement. Meanwhile, Monmonn announced he was going to deal with a vampire. Before Dara could make some card game related joke, THIS happened: *In the distance, you hear a bell toll. *obit The following players have died in fights this reset: Zarquadon the sorceress, killed by the monk0 and the ape. * We barely even knew our space-faring sorceress before this tragedy struck. Dara, meanwhile, rushed to avenge Zarquadon. The monk was already weakened from the previous fight, and soon was critically injured (and not just from bad reviews). Meanwhile, Monmonnn was fighting the vampire. Dara paused to rest before chasing down ape9. Meanwhile, a new participant arrived in the bash. *who Jinxed Titus the mage Monmonnn the necromancer Dara the dragonfly-slaying sorceress Drizzle the wobbly mage *A male voice in the distance shouts "Hes quite evasive...". *sh Who, the vampire? Yes, he can be. Often he tags out and the wraith tags in. You shout "Who, the vampire? Yes, he can be. Often he tags out and the wraith tags in.". Soon after, Monmonnn announced "vampire down." Not long after, everyone in The Land heard the terrible RHOAAAUUUAURRRRGGGGGGHGHHHGHHHH of a dragon dying. *who Jinxed the protector Titus the mage Monmonnn the dragon-slaying necromancer Dara the dragonfly-slaying sorceress Drizzle the wobbly mage Dara soon found and finished off ape9, and announced "Ape9 down! Zarquadon is avenged!". Meanwhile, Monmonnn fought an axe-wielding skeleton1 at the rhododendron tunnel. Dara would soon take out the other upper north mountain area mobiles, and Monmonnn would deal with the hunchback before announcing dwarf realm was his next goal. Dara and Jinxed would take out ape4 and ape5, respectively. Dara then went to face the giant snake in the pagoda, and Jinxed would join in. After they brought an end to the giant snake's hissy-fit, Monmonnn announced the goblins had been dealt with and he would be returning to the dwarf realm soon. [b]Part Three: Dwarfs and upper pagoda[/b] Jinxed, meanwhile, managed to find one of the dwarfs roaming on the surface, and obtained the longsword. Unfortunately, Jinxed wasn't quite strong enough to wield the longsword. That was remedied with a little bit of treasure finding. Monmonnn did a few WHERE'ing, and discovered that in addition to the skeleton2 in the mausoleum, there were also two zombies, one of them in the graveyard. Jinxed theorized the latter zombie was probably the Zarquadon zombie. Monmonnn brought down the first set of dwarf guards, and then the second set without too much trouble. Dara, meanwhile, hunted the tiger in the pagoda, and brought it down as the mobile count was reduced to 50. Soon, there were 49 mobiles left, with 48 minutes remaining. As Monmonnn fought the third set of dwarf guards, and Dara rested, Jinxed went down the well to face water-snakes. Monmonnn brought down the dwarf monarchy. Dara did some ghostbusting on the upper floor of pagoda. Monmonnn still had to deal with the dwarf guards in the treasure chamber, and Dara reminded him "Don't forget the other set. Surly to bed and surly to rise... :)". Monmonnn managed to get through the latest encounter without using a single wafer. As for Jinxed - well, she was in the well, slowly eradicating some snakes. Dara proceeded to take down everyone's second-favourite Arizonan mob (not the Tuscon, the other one). While Dara fought the upper floor pagoda mobiles, Monmonnn ran into problems facing the surlies. Apparently, he wasn't able to drink the 'recover stamina' potion vial on 24 health. He had to panic, flee, and re-enter. This caused the surlies to posssess a broadsword, a cape, and four wafers. The ox was in no shape to fight, as it was swamped. Dara finished off an already weakened billy goat, who had clearly been in a fight recently. Jinxed, meanwhile, finished the water-snakes. Several minutes later, a stealth operation was conducted with multiple resites and steals to recover four wafers, a broadsword, and other equipment from the dwarves. Jinxed assisted (and nabbed a throne along the way). All three participants (Dara, Monmonnn, and Jinxed) teamed up to finish off the surly dwarf guards. [b]Part Four: A phial error, and the keep[/b] With that out of the way, it was time to turn attention to the keep. Monmonnn went to the keep, but forgot about the wyvern being poisonous. Dara heard his call for a phial, and went to the en suite bathroom at Il Castellare to get one for him. But Monmonnn had wandered off to the cottage in search of one (he didn't find it, as it had already been used up earlier with either the viper or the wyvern), and Dara ran into him at the keep just in time for the following to happen. In front of Dara's eyes, the following happened: *e Keep. The keep door is open. Monmonnn the necromancer is here wearing a ring6 and a cape, and carrying a broadsword, a cardboard box0, a key10 and an opened vial4. *Monmonnn the necromancer drops dead, poisoned... Strewn before you is a gothic-looking, oppressively black cape. In front of you lies a fearsome, yet beautiful broadsword. A closed, sturdy cardboard box stands here. An expertly-tooled key has been dropped over to one side. A well-worn gold ring lies over to one side. A small, opened vial stands here, labelled: "POTION 4 - regain all stamina". Monmonnn the necromancer has just passed on. *sh OOPS! You shout "OOPS!". *who Monmonnn the necromancer Titus the mage Jinxed the swordswoman Dara the dragonfly-slaying sorceress Drizzle the wobbly mage Oops, indeed. As Dara noted later, it was bad timing on both their parts. Fortunately, Monmonnn returned and was able to recover all his stuff. [i](For those wandering in unfamiliar with MUD2's game mechanics, what happened to Monmonnn above was a temporary death due to mishap, such as poisoning through wyvern venom. When this happens, the player character only suffers a loss of a few points and some mild indignity. With perma-death - as seen with Zarquadon earlier - they lose ALL their points and every progress they made since they created the character in the first place. We now resume our regularly scheduled bash report). [/i] [b]Part Five: The final 25[/b] Anyway, Jinxed also arrived at the keep, and the three of them talked a bit about what happened with the phials, and then they teamed together to do the keep. After they took down the spectre and the griffin, the mobile count was 25 mobiles left with 20 minutes left to go. First up was to take care of the remaining mobiles in the area near the keep, the gardens, and the monastery. Dara fought the coot, while Jinxed fought the boar. While Jinxed had little trouble with the swan, and Dara disposed of the zombie2 at the monastery, Monmonnn did have some difficulties with the wraith. Dara headed to the evil wood to assist Monmonnn, who finished off the wraith and, with Dara's assistance, defeated the skeleton2 in the mausoleum. Momonnn then announced his intention to hunt the sealife. Jinxed, meanwhile, went to the graveyard to administer last rites to the remaining undead inhabitants of the graveyard. These would be the Zarquadon zombie and the ghoul, the former encountered en route to the latter. Dara hunted the stag in the deerpark. Monmonnn found the elusive jellyfish. Jinxed continued seeking out remaining undead, forcing her way into the east tomb to bring down zombie7. Monmonnn rid the sea of the sharks as Dara sought the snugglepuss. Dara, however, severely underestimated the snugglepuss, attacking it at half stamina. The snugglepuss isn't usually the toughest mobile, but Dara had to flee nonetheless. Jinxed would show up to help finish off the snugglepuss. Monmonnn, meanwhile, encountered his own difficulties with skeleton0, and had to flee. Jinxed, meanwhile, found some straggling dwarfs, and Dara took down the man. Eventually, sk0 would go down as well. [b]Part Six: The Golem, and the wrapup[/b] Soon, it was down to one mobile remaining: The golem. So the three participants went to perform the ritual needed to access the golem. However, Dara accidentally went in to the golem's sanctum at 50 stamina. She made a valiant effort, managing to get the golem covered in wounds, but had to flee. She was stranded at sea, but it was nothing a re-site couldn't rescue her from. And so the three of them tried again, and this time Monmonn made it in. Monmonnn was a lot more prepared than Dara was, with wafers and the broadsword at the ready, and soon the following announcement came forth. *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! And so the bash was successful, with 400 seconds remaining. Monmonnn was stranded at the vicious rocks, but Dara was able to deliver a boat to him, allowing him to return to shore and drop the icons in the hut. Soon afterward, everyone returned to the tearoom to talk about the events of the bash. Monmonnn stated that the fight with the king dwarf had a close call, as the king dwarf pulled a sleep spell or two, and he managed to escape before dangerous hits. All in all, a successful bash. Despite the loss of Zarquadon and a few mishaps, the players pulled together and succeeded with 400 seconds to spare. So far, June has had two bashes, one a near miss and the other a success. <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Zalagar on 24-06-2025 20:06 ]</font> <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Zalagar on 24-06-2025 20:16 ]</font> [/quote]
