Mini-Bash, September 26, 2024
I'm doing this writeup over a week removed from this, so it's nowhere near as fresh in my mind as the bash from the week after (October 3rd, 2024), but the notes I have are pretty thourough.
Anyway, this was more of a mini-bash than a regular bash. Karjala, the newcomer Winnie introducted the previous week, felt bad for leaving before the bash was completed. So we decided to do a smaller bash this time around, with a few mobiles taken out via vote in order to speed things up. It was a special one-hour bash, one that Karjala would be able to stick around for the duration for.
Section 1: Getting some trouble out of the way early
In any case, Dara started out by finishing the fox, catching the mouse, and having a fight with the thief. Winnie took down the dragonfly and the parrot, and was soon made bash general.
Heiach FODed the rats, after a vote, thus saving a bit of time.
Winnie got ambushed by the ram whilst armed with nothing but a stick and she vanquished the ram!
And then proceeded to whack a raven over the head with that stick. Unfortunately, that stick broke. But there was another one conveniently left on the ground.
Dara, meanwhile, fought with skeleton2, but had to flee. The pagoda opened, but the mobiles there seemed to already be dead.
Winnie helped Karjala get her bearings and showed her some neat tricks. Meanwhile, Dara, after seeing the pagoda area was empty, took down the pony. Soon, the pillar was announced, and everyone made it to the pillar power-up meeting. This included Karjala, who was guided there by Winnie.
Section 2: Fighting undead with croquet mallets
Dara would move on from there to dispose of zombie2, and there was a vote for what Crazyfool should FOD. Winnie, meanwhile, fought zombie4 with a croquet mallet. As for the result of the vote, well, let me quote it here...
*vote sealife
Very well, your vote for "SEALIFE" has been recorded.
*You hit the zombie2 (5-9).
The zombie2 looks critically damaged.
The zombie2 misses you.
*You hit the zombie2 (20-29).
You have killed the zombie2.
(Persona saved on +38 = 19,068).
The zombie2 has expired.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "sealife isn't a verb mud understands".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "what is with these votes...".
*For your information: the period of voting has ended. The result was
"CHEESEBURGER...?"/"HUNCHBACK"/"SEALIFE"/"VAMPIRE".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "lol".
Dara went on to bring down the snowbird, and Karjala killed a zombie, much to her surprise.
*Crazyfool the stand-up wizard shouts "well done".
*Karjala the warrior exclaims "I did it! I was useful!".
Winnie, meanwhile, would go on to fight skeleton2 with the croquet mallet, and around that time, the following happened:
*For your information: Paine is being asked what to fod next.
*A female voice in the distance shouts "What is a fod I'm confused".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "finger of death".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "insta-kill".
*In the distance, you hear the terrible RHOAAAUUUAURRRRGGGGGGHGHHHGHHHH of a
dragon dying.
*Winnie the bash-general sorceress cheers.
*wh w
A female voice in the distance shouts "I killed a hamburger NOOOOO".
*wh winnie
1 in the place known as "northeast tomb".
*A female voice in the distance cheers.
*who
Winnie the bash-general sorceress shouts "sk2 down".
*who
Heiach the chimerical wizard
Winnie the bash-general sorceress
Karjala the warrior
Lowfields the dragon-slaying necromancer
Dara the sorceress
Paine the matriarch
Drizzle the wobbly mage
Section 3: Dwarf citadel, goblins, and fireflies
After a while, Heiach announced Paine had voted to FOD DWARF. Not all the dwarfs fell victim, so there were still some left to be fought later.
The canary soon expired after being exposed to gas in the mine. There were still plenty of dwarfs in the dwarf citadel. Dara would fight with the stocky dwarf guards, and dwarf46 and cherry dwarf47, all of whom were still on active duty despite the loss of the dwarf monarchs.
As for Winnie and Karjala, this excerpt from Winnie's log explains what they were doing:
Karjala helped winnie to open the portcullis, and she claimed the longsword!
Winnie led Karjala into the goblin realm, and used her ls to open the door into the goblin guard room, helping her to take out the foes, and teaching her how to open doors
75 left, 74 mins, sharks dead
Karjala and Winnie made their way through the goblin realm, slaying anything that came in their way.
Lowfields, meanwhile, roamed the eastern part of The Land, finding some of the mobiles others had missed there.
As Dara fought with more denizens of the dwarf citadel, Heiach asked which mobiles should meet an unfortunate fate now? Dara took a second in between fights to shout "Sharks!" before resuming the fight against female dwarf30.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "sharks are dead".
*
1 in the place known as "sea".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "sharks are dead".
*sh Good. That means we won't jump the shark. 
You shout "Good. That means we won't jump the shark. ".
*who
Heiach the chimerical wizard
Winnie the bash-general sorceress
Karjala the warrior
Lowfields the dragon-slaying necromancess
Dara the sorceress
Drizzle the wobbly mage
*sleep
ZZZzzz...
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "eeeyyyyy".
Dara had to rest after killing eagle, but then something strange happened.
*Your box0 feels a tiny bit heavier, and buzzier.
You have just been woken up!
Your stamina is 113.
*"iansuigs"
Dara the sorceress says "iansuigs".
Because you can't see anyone else here, it may be that you are speaking to
yourself...
A pleasant warmness courses through your veins...
You feel better already.
Your stamina is 119.
*i
You are carrying the following:
2 keys, the cardboard box0 and the well-maintained pick2.
The cardboard box0 contains:
the firefly0.
Weight carried: 7kg 221g/100kg.
Objects carried: 4/12.
You are keeping any objects in your possession of the following type:
pick2.
The firefly4 flies away.
The firefly2 flies away.
The firefly1 flies away.
The firefly3 flies away.
Flying by is a firefly (firefly2).
Flying by is a firefly (firefly0).
Flying by is a firefly (firefly3).
Your magical weakness has worn off.
Your magical dexterity has worn off.
*get ff from
Well, Dara would then dispose of those fireflies who'd mysteriously shown up. By this point, Winnie and Karjala had concluded their business in the goblin passages, and were headed toward the mine. Heiach announced that the remaining skeletons had been FODed, as well as at least one guardian of the keep.
Dara fought with the burly dwarf guards, and Lowfields arrived. Meanwhile, Winnie and Karjala fought the surly dwarf guards. Karjala had to flee mid-way through, allowing the final surly (11) to claim the ls for himself. However, at only 28 stam left, Winnie was able to survive the onslaught, and claim the shortsword for herself, whilst Karjala reclaimed her longsword.
Section 4: The Remaining Mobiles
With the dwarf citadel cleared, everyone headed back to the surface. Dara fought the ogre, and the hunchback showed up during the fight and attacked the ogre. Dara would then fight with the hunchback, but ended up having to withdraw. While Dara was resting from that, Heiach made the following announcement.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "maybe I should FOD all birds?".
You have just been woken up!
Your stamina is 37.
*Winnie the bash-general sorceress shouts "hb down!".
*Winnie the bash-general sorceress shouts "sure!".
*For your information: there are 15 mobiles still alive.
*sh Why do birds suddenly disappear any time that you're near?
You shout "Why do birds suddenly disappear any time that you're near? ".
*In the distance, you hear a loud "MOO".
With that silly reference joke out of the way, Heiach reminded us that this was a mini-bash, shorter in length than the usual bash, with the following announcement.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "let me even the odds a little more, you
only have 5 mins left".
Heiach then asked everyone to pick four mobiles to be automatically disposed of. The spider, the golem, and the man were chosen.
Dara and Lowfields would fight the girffin in the keep, and later both of them would fight the boar.
Soon there were only two mobiles left, the piglet and the stag. Lowfields and Dara would seek the piglet while Winnie and Karjala hunted the stag.
With only 40 seconds to spare, Winnie and Karjala brought down the stag.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "well done everyone! It was close".
*A male voice in the distance yodels "ROTATE NOW!!!".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "I helped!! (a bit) ((I didnt at all))".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "I did say the bash would end around 9pm
or there abouts, thus the reset heh".
*Winnie the bash-general sorceress shouts "okay now run ZWampward and swamp
it".
*A male voice in the distance cheers.
Soon after, the reset happened and everyone returned to the tearoom for the post-bash chat. Heiach would say "I wanted it to be close and not a walk in the park", and added that "but asking you to do spider and golem at the end would be rough".
Dara the sorceress says "Well, I did a lot of the roaming dwarfs that were
left after the FOD.".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard says "good job on taking out the wyvern in
combat btw".
*Winnie the sorceress nods.
All in all, this was a successful mini-bash. Though shorter than a normal mobile bash, there was still time for the usual jokes and so on as we went about our business.
The next bash, however, was a regular bash, with a lot of fun stuff there. And that's a story to tell in the next bash report following this one.

Well, the mobile bash for October 3rd was not a mini-bash but a regular bash. And there was a LOT to report on there. So I'm splitting it into two posts for easier reading.
Mobile Bash report for October 3rd, 2024
After some pre-bash discussion where we contemplated a possible Halloween bash, the mobile bash started with the following list of players.
*who
Crazyfool the stand-up wizard
Heiach the chimerical wizard
Lowfields the necromancer
Winnie the sorceress
Paine the matriarch
Karjala the heroine
Dara the sorceress
Zedar the bash-general warlock
Zanthia the guest
Dara found herself in the south portion of The Land near the swamp, the pine forest and the south mountain, and went after the fireflies. Lowfields, meanwhile, decided that it would be a folly to not get the bees out of the way as early on as possible, and proceeded to go about doing it.
Meanwhile, Winnie killed the scorpion first, but was stung in the process and had to re-enter. Winnie was then ambushed by the vampire and fled on 11 stamina. As a result, the vampire was worth 405 points.
Zedar, meanwhile, DIAGnosed the vampire, and noted that the vampire had 88 stamina remaining. He decided not to try finishing it off, and went to collect more gear. He was also appointed bash-general by this point.
Dara, meanwhile, took down the fox before then taking on the coot. Shortly thereafter, it was announced to the rest of The Land that the vampire was worth 405 points if killed. Dara would then go on to take down the piglet.
A shout from Heiach let everyone know the apes were around. Zedar, meanwhile, was recovering stamina from a fight with the thief at the swamp at the same time of the announcement about the vampire.
Winnie was bit by the viper, and killed it, though she had to re-enter The Land. More weapons were placed in the hut for those who needed them.
Lowfields, meanwhile, sought out the broadsword which is located on an island out at sea, but made an error. He ended up picking up the rice flail instead as well as a nearby 30-series wafer.
Lowfields disposed of the bas, and it was a close fight. Zedar was told to keep talking to Lowfields so he didn't fall asleep (due to using a 30-series wafer that has that side effect), and so he did. The pillar was brought out afterward, and just about everyone made it to that power-up.
Section 2: Water-Snakes, Rats, and Stegosaurus
Since Winnie was not at 100 percent and had other things distracting her, Dara decided to be the one to take on water-snakes this set. Zedar, meanwhile, went to rid the cellar of its rat infestation. Lowfields went after ape9 and the monk.
After Dara took down water-snake0 (her fourth water-snake), Heiach made an announcement.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "Zedar is on 18 kills, Dara is on 12,
Lowfields is on 2 and Winnie is on 1".
After a moment, Heiach would add...
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "not that it's a competition because
whoever kills all the rats has a big advantage".
Dara the sorceress shouts "Looks like Zedar has rats.".
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "if we're going for unique mob kills, Dara
is winning".
Dara the sorceress shouts "Lowfields taking on pagoda dining hall mobiles.".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "maybe we'll do it like that?".
But what of our resident newcomer, Karjala? Well, she found herself fighting a dinosaur at the misty part of middle mountain. A transcript of the shouts follows.
*A female voice in the distance shouts "IM FIGHTING A DINOSAUR".
You have just been woken up!
Your stamina is 78.
*wh winnie
1 in the place known as "landing in tower".
*wh karjala
1 in the place known as "misty part of middle mountain".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "is that wise?".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "im not dead so probably".
*Crazyfool the stand-up wizard shouts "as long as its not the Stegosaurus".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "it is the stegosaurus".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "am I cooked".
*Crazyfool the stand-up wizard shouts "we need that to finish the bash!".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "okkkk ill leave it alonee".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "wait shit I left my sabre there...".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "CF was joking, bad CF".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "OH COME ONE".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "I'm taking it down".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "how many points did you lose fleeing
Kar?".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "275....".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "ok restored".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "aww man it was gonna be my big killl i
hate u cfff".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "sabre on badly-paved road".
*Zedar the bash-general warlock shouts "the sceptre is in the hut, its not
bad, a bit fragile but packs a punch".
Winnie would end up rushing from the landing in the tower (where she encountered the snugglepuss) and eventually helped Karjala finish off the stegosaurus.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "turns out Karjala in fact killed the
steg".
Dara would go on to fight the remaining water-snakes, as Heiach announced...
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "Zedar has kill 3 types of mob, Dara 6,
Karjala 1, Lowfields 3 and Winnie 5".
Zedar was confused, and not sure if he'd finished off all the rats. This transcript will help illustrate that confusion.
*Zedar the bash-general warlock shouts "I killed 22 rats. Are there more? My
brain isnt working".
*Zedar the bash-general warlock shouts "I'll check later.".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "for you Zedar, sure".
*k ws with wp
You attack the water-snake2, using the dagger0 as a weapon.
*You hit the water-snake2 (10-14).
You have killed the water-snake2.
(Persona saved on +85 = 25,359).
The water-snake2 has just passed on.
*wh rat22
Your spell doesn't find any.
*wh rat23
Your spell doesn't find any.
*Zedar the bash-general warlock shouts "ok".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "no your "forgot" the large rat..".
*Zedar the bash-general warlock shouts "chuckle".
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "you did in fact slay them all fyi".
Zedar the bash-general warlock shouts "I shall re-slay the very large rat".
You shout "There are usually a total of as many rats as there are hours in the
day, though two of them aren't often seen.".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "he wasn't dead enough".
So Zedar fought the large rat0 a second time, and used the sleep spell on it in the process. Soon afterward, a goose was sighted in The Land. The goose is one of those rarely-seen mobiles that sometimes appears in The Land.
Zedar, meanwhile, had fed the dragon, and noted that Lowfields had managed to at least get the broadsword away from its usual starting location. Karjala soon encounted ape11 on the badly paved road, around the same time nearly everyone in The Land heard terrible RHOAAAUUUAURRRRGGGGGGHGHHHGHHHH of a dragon dying.
Zedar couldn't help Karjala. He was busy at sea seeking sealife. Dara had one more water-snake to finish off. So Winnie rushed to Karjala's assistance with ape11. Winnie and Karjala finished off ape11, Dara finished the last of the water-snakes, and Zedar took out shark1 at sea.
Section 3: Pagoda, keep, and shillings stolen
Zedar offered to help BLIND mobiles for those who needed it. Meanwhile, Heaich made another announcement.
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "Zedar has 5 unique kills, Dara has 6,
Karjala has 2, Lowfields has 4 and Winnie has 7. Go Winnie!".
Dara ventured to the snowy mountainside area and took out the pony and the snowbird. Around this time, Winnie encountered a problem with skeleton2 in the southwest tomb. Winnie came close to dying, and had to flee but Zedar arrived and finished the skeleton off.
*(Zedar the dragon-slaying, bash-general warlock) shouts "sk2 dead come
reclaim your scimitar".
Karjala the heroine shouts "where can I find the magpie I want to
kill it for stealing my shilling".
Winnie the sorceress shouts "thanks".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "you were going to buy grandma some soup
with that shilling!".
With the weather sunny again, Zedar resumed his sea activities to take care of the other shark, shark0. Both sharks cost Zedar one wafer a piece, unfortunately. Meanwhile, Dara brought down ape0, causing much chaos for the rest of the apes, and then went on to fight ape4 and ape6. Around this time, Heiach made another announcement.
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "Zedar has slain 7 unique mobiles, Dara
10, Karjala 3, Lowfields 8 and Winnie 7!".
Soon, we reached the point where 100 mobiles were left, and soon it was down to 96 mobiles with 67 minutes left.
Zedar headed off to the keep while Dara finished ape8.
Zedar the dragon-slaying, bash-general warlock shouts "I will do the Keep.
I'll leave any treasure under the hut for our fallen".
During his time at the keep, Zedar would encounter the knight, an addition to the keep that Heiach added. After the knight fell, Zedar claimed the knight's shield.
Dara, meanwhile, would fight the giant snake, and be assisted by an invisible Lowfields toward the end of the fight. Lowfields would then go to the courtyard in search of the tiger.
Karjala, meanwhile, was asking where the bird bath was.
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "pine forest".
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "also you wanna kill the magpie as its
taking a bath??".
This conversation continued as Dara was attempting to rest up. However, resting up was difficult for Dara already because she took a wrong turn in the pagoda and found herself drunk on incense fumes, with the following results.
*wh lowfields
1 in the place known as "north part of courtyard".
*sle
A female voice in the distance shouts "it stole my shilling, ethics are
optional".
*wh tiger
1 in the place known as "north part of courtyard".
*sleep
ZZZzzz...
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "haha".
You have just been woken up from your drunken stupor...
Your stamina is 60.
*You see a large, pink elephant, smiling at you.
*You suddenly have an urge to help Drizzle the wobbly mage...
*You suddenly cry.
Dara needed to sleep it off, so she didn't participate in clearing out what was left in the pagoda. Meanwhile, Lowfields not only managed to dispose of the tiger, but the upper floor pagoda mobiles as well.
(Will Dara recover? Will Karjala track down the magpie who stole her shilling? Find out in the next post!)

Mobile Bash report for October 3rd, Part 2
When we last left off, Karjala was seeking out the thieving bird who stole her shilling, Dara was sleeping it off after taking a wrong turn in the pagoda and getting drunk from fumes, and Lowfields had just disposed of the tiger in the pagoda. We now resume the report.
Section 4: Mines, spider, ghoul, and dwarf citadel
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "Zedar has killed 11 unique mobiles, Dara
11, Karjala 2, Winnie 8 and Lowfields 14! Go Lowfields".
Winnie, at around this point, returned from a break other circumstances made her take.
*A female voice in the distance shouts "hi again!".
You have just been woken up!
Your stamina is 62.
*sh I don't know who again is but I'll tell again you said hi.
Zedar the dragon-slaying, bash-general warlock shouts "the valetant is
available in the hut, very good weapon".
*sh I don't know who again is but I'll tell again you said hi.
You shout "I don't know who again is but I'll tell again you said hi.".
Karjala roamed the evil woods, but the vampire had already been disposed of by Lowfields earlier, as had the wraith. Zedar kept the knight's shield, not sure what it did, but it seemed to help him.
Dara, seeing that the pagoda area was cleared out, headed off to the mines. First, she shoved zombie6 into the path of a flood that also claimed the lives of dwarf18, the mean-looking dwarf48, and several others. Then she headed upward to the platform and shed and side passage area and took out zombie0 and zombie4 in fights, and also managed to get rid of skeleton1.
Karjala, meanwhile, killed the magpie, punishing it for its shilling stealing.
*A female voice in the distance shouts "that's what you get for stealing
shillings!!".
Dara and Zedar spotted each other in the mines. Dara found the last remaining mobile in the dwarf pasture area, the eagle, and Zedar blinded the eagle on request from Dara. Dara finished off the eagle as Zedar observed. Zedar guessed correctly that the absence of other creatures in the mine and the dwarf pasture was Dara's doing, and continued on with his shield and sword (epee).
Lowfields, at around the same time this was happening, decided to go kill skeleton0 right after the mine flooding. Winnie, meanwhile, had encountered the spider in the ruin, and ended up dropping Valetant there. Lowfields killed the spider, left the broadsword for Winnie, and then headed to the dwarf citadel where Dara and Zedar were already at work.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "Zedar has 17 unique mobile kills, Dara
has 13, Winnie has 8, Karjala has 3 and Lowfields has 18!".
*For your information: there are 50 mobiles still alive.
(Persona saved on +300 = 26,965).
*e
Dwarf steps.
You are using some narrow, closely-spaced stairs, which descend in a straight
line from a room to the west to a message-bearing front door to the east. At
the top of the steps are strange decorations, presumably put there to ward off
evil presences, such as yours... The front door is open.
*sv
50 alive, 246 dead.
*reset
Time-stamp: 21:03:10 on 3-OCT-2024.
This is reset 117477, using slot 0.
An auto-reset will be initiated in approximately 46 minutes.
Zedar disposed of stocky dwarf guards, and Dara helped Zedar finish off dwarf38. The two of them went their separate ways in the dwarf citadel, with Dara moving on to fight the hefty dwarf guards.
Zedar, meanwhile, found out that Lowfields was also in the dwarf citadel, and so this became a joint effort. Winnie, meanwhile, was facing the ghoul in the rotting room.
Zedar fought with the burly dwarf guards, and as Winnie reported that the ghoul was down, Dara joined in the fight against the burly dwarf guards to help Zedar finish them off. They were joined by Lowfields soon afterward.
They found themselves in the King's Study, facing the dwarf king and queen, and soon took down the dwarf monarchy. Meanwhile, someone was not feeling well because they said they had eaten a flower.
Section 5: The last remaining mobiles
It wasn't long before we got the mobile count down to 13.
Dara the necromancess shouts "We need to make 13 mobiles unlucky within 37 minutes!".
*sv
13 alive, 283 dead.
*reset
Time-stamp: 21:12:10 on 3-OCT-2024.
This is reset 117477, using slot 0.
An auto-reset will be initiated in approximately 37 minutes.
Soon, the mobile count went down to 11, then 10.
*For your information: there are 10 mobiles still alive.
*reset
Time-stamp: 21:12:51 on 3-OCT-2024.
This is reset 117477, using slot 0.
An auto-reset will be initiated in approximately 36 minutes.
*Zedar the dragon-slaying, bash-general, shield warlock shouts "I'm moving to
WHERE duty. I'll start backwards from Z".
Zedar the dragon-slaying, bash-general, shield warlock shouts "z7".
Dara the necromancess shouts "Between flooding and fighting, I took out most zombies plus sk1,
but there might be one or two zombies left.".
The mobile count went down further, as zombie7 was found.
Dara the necromancess shouts "Aside from golem, what's left?".
*wh z7
Your spell doesn't find any.
*Winnie the sorceress makes some magical gestures.
*Winnie the sorceress shouts "wolf".
*wh
In the distance, you hear a wolf baying AAAOOOOOOHHHH.
Zedar the dragon-slaying, bash-general, shield warlock shouts ";)".
*sv
7 alive, 289 dead.
That was some pretty incredible timing, there. Anyway, with the wolf gone, we still had a few other overlooked mobiles, such as the mouse (which Lowfields soon got), and some others. Dara did her part to WH a few. An excerpt from her point of view:
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "lowfields got it  ".
*wh swan
1 in the place known as "man-made lake".
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "boo lowfields".
Zedar the dragon-slaying, bash-general, shield warlock shouts "stag".
*sh Swan still swimming!
You shout "Swan still swimming!".
*n
Forest near mountains.
*wh stag
1 in the place known as "deerpark".
A female voice in the distance shouts "I'm so lost in The Land to this day
it's crazy I haven't found the inn after like 20 minutes".
*sh Stag still standing!
You shout "Stag still standing!".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "still staggering".
*For your information: there are 5 mobiles still alive.
*A female voice in the distance shouts "hunting the stag!".
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "boar still boring?"
Winnie hunted the stag while Dara bashed the boar.
You miss the boar.
The boar misses you.
*ya
A sailable coracle, large enough for one, has been left here.
*yawn
OK, Dara the necromancess yawns.
*"What a boar.
Dara the necromancess says "What a boar.".
*You hit the boar (20-29).
The boar looks close to death.
Lowfields arrived just in time to see Dara finish off the boar. Soon, there were only two left.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "2 left!".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "and I've armed one of them!".
The other one turned out to be ape7, who now had a weapon. Meanwhile, Lowfields, Dara, Zedar did the meditation ritual to access the golem. Lowfields would be the one to go in.
Winnie announced that ape7 was down. And soon afterward, the golem went down as well.
Section 6: Successful bash, and epilogue
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "Zedar has killed 23 unique mobiles, Dara
20, Winnie 10, Karjala 3 and Lowfields 32".
Zedar then announced that there was "Treasure under the hut, help yourselves." Heiach announced that Lowfields was the 'winner' in the one who killed the most unique mobiles, with Karjala on the other side. Both of them would receive trophies when they returned to the tearoom.
Many of those in the tearoom left it again to help make the stored treasure even more valuable. Karjala would claim some of it, and reach the rank of championne. Our newcomer then had this question to ask.
*A female voice in the distance shouts "now I can touch the touchstone
right??"".
Everyone else gave their answers, and then gave Karjala well-wishes and encouragement as MUD2's newest player took on her riskiest task yet: touching the touchstone to obstain magic.
You shout "If you feel brave and lucky enough.".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "make sure to hold the foot".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "I have a thing that might be of use to
you".
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "yeah".
*A female voice in the distance shouts "standing outside the cave of stars".
*Karjala the championne has just arrived.
Paine the matriarch has just arrived.
*Karjala the championne has just left.
Paine the matriarch has just left.
*A female voice close by shouts "Championne is the correct level to attempt
this, with more than 50% success I believe. Superhero drops it to much lower.".
*Clouds are gathering overhead.
*A female voice close by shouts "Best of luck!".
*gl Karjala
(Persona saved on -18 = 30,674).
You wish good luck to Karjala the championne.
*Zedar the warlock has just arrived.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "it is SIGNIFICANTLY lower at SH, by like
A LOT".
But did she succeed?
*Heiach the chimerical wizard cheers.
*A male voice in the distance cheers.
*A female voice in the distance cheers.
*A female voice in the distance shouts "I DID IT!!!".
*Zedar the warlock makes some magical gestures, painting pretty patterns in
the air.
*Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "congratulations!".
*A female voice in the distance cheers.
*Zedar the warlock cheers.
She did! Karjala obtained her first sorceress. And so everyone returned to the tearoom to celebrate both the successful bash and Karjala's success with the touchstone.
*cg Karjala
(Persona saved on -16 = 30,658).
You congratulate Karjala the sorceress.
*Zedar the warlock has just passed on.
*wh
Heiach the chimerical wizard shouts "now type spells and enjoy looking through
all that".
*who

Lowfields the warlock
Zedar the warlock
Winnie the sorceress
Cenedra the lovely mage
Dara the necromancess
Karjala the sorceress
Drizzle the wobbly mage
*A female voice in the distance shouts "congrats!".
There was also a long post-bash chat where everyone talked not only about this bash and recent events, but of other events from the past, too. Zedar had a number of stories to share. But as this report is long enough already, we'll just wrap things up here.
What's next? Well, if all goes well in October, there may be a Halloween-themed bash in the weeks to come. We'll have to wait and see what happens.

= The Monster Bash (2024-10-24) =
== I - Prelude==
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend exclaims: HEY EVERY !!! IT’S ME !!! EV3RY BUDDY’S FAVOURITE [[NumberOneRatedLegend2024]] IS HERE TO DO THE [[BashReport]]!!!
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend cackles.
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend frantically looks around.
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend shouts: [[WellPaidEmployee]]!?!?!?!?
Dianne the championne has just arrived.
Dianne the championne says: I say, one is starting to tire of these endless harebrained schemes you keep coming up with for getting us out of here – and one cannot comprehend how this is supposed to help. And one is still waiting for you to-
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend surreptitiously says something to Dianne the championne.
Dianne the championne discreetly replies to Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend, and sighs.
Dianne the championne says: Well then, dear reader, it seems that one has nothing better to do here besides deliver the bash report from the 24th of October 2024.
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend cackles.
== II - Those About To Die ==
Dianne the championne says: Dear reader, one comes to you from beyond the veil with a tale of tears of sorrow, of several unprepared adventurers not realizing that they were facing forces beyond their wildest imagination, and of so, so, many tragedies inflicted upon them by a crazy fool who knew not what he had unleashed.
But first, let us get acquainted with the poor souls whom found themselves caught in this tornado of torment.

As the set started, the mortals needed to wait in the tearoom for a moment, occupying themselves with some apple bobbing, whilst the crazed fool unleashed the legion of horrors out in the land. And yes, you may have noticed a new name here – Croakerjr – who may have chosen the worst possible bash to make their debut.
But, as soon as that crazed fool had finished preparing The Land, things would very quickly spin out of control…
Quote:
| Crazyfool the stand-up wizard shouts "full disclosure guys. I have no idea what I have done". |
|
== III - Ready or Not ==
Dianne the championne says: And so, the adventurers all entered The Land, and went their various ways. Winnie, for instance, having bobbed up an apple from the apple bobbing, decided to grab herself a falchion (and saw a Croakerjr along the way), before making a beeline to the swamp to dump her apple. Rookie mistake. Child4 was there and waiting for her, beating her up within an inch of her life (as she fumbled her falchion into the swamp), and fled before Winnie, now disarmed and wounded, could finish it off.
Dara had a better start to the set, taking down Zombie7 in the mausoleum without any incident, and took down Fireimp2 in the cave rather handily; however, at the same time, Zedar found herself fending off Columbear the teddywere and Child2 out in the rapids. Someone else found a Hawumph suit, and was disappointed by the lack of arch powers it bestowed upon the wearer, whilst yet another person found and fought an operatic phantom.
As usual, someone had managed to bring the pillar and the pointer to the usual area, and announced it to everyone in The Land, who made their way there.
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend exclaims: AND [[Winnie]] HAS JUST BEEN AMBUSHED BY THE [[ClothToyWereclown]]!
Dianne the championne says: And so, Dara went over there to helped to slay that foe, then-
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend exclaims: [[Gremlin]]s?? BLOCKING YOUR [[LadderShaft]]?? IT’S MORE LIKELY THAN YOU MAY THINK!!
Dianne the championne says: Yes, our brave adventurers were not prepared for the unthinkable – a Gremlin got itself caught in the ladder shaft! Thankfully, the blockage was dislodged, and everyone made it to the pillar in time.
On the way out, Dara noticed a pinata in the hut – one of the few treats in this torrent of tricks.
Quote:
| Woodsman's hut.
A fragile looking pinata has been suspended from the roof.
Groggy the scary-sexpot necromancer has just arrived.
*k pinata with wp
You hit the pinata nice and hard with the staff0…
*Zedar the loo-roll hunk warlock has just arrived.
*Winnie the latex temptress necromancess has just arrived.
*Zedar the loo-roll hunk warlock has just fallen asleep.
*Groggy the scary-sexpot necromancer has just left.
*k pinata with wp.....…
You hit the pinata nice and hard with the staff0…
Zedar the loo-roll hunk warlock has woken up!
*You hit the pinata nice and hard with the staff0…
*You hit the pinata nice and hard with the staff0…
*You hit the pinata nice and hard with the staff0…
*You hit the pinata nice and hard with the staff0…
*You hit the pinata nice and hard with the staff0…
*You hit the pinata nice and hard with the staff0…
*You hit the pinata nice and hard with the staff0…
The pinata shatters, showering the area with handy weapons.
A gnarled, sturdy besom (besom5) lies in a cleared space here.
A gnarled, sturdy besom (besom4) lies in a cleared space here.
A gnarled, sturdy besom (besom3) lies in a cleared space here.
A gnarled, sturdy besom (besom2) lies in a cleared space here.
A gnarled, sturdy besom (besom1) lies in a cleared space here.
A deadly-sharp scimitar catches the light at your feet.
Nearby, you espy a springy, well-balanced foil!
Lying to one side is a mighty cutlass!
A dangerous, mean-looking epee has been dropped on the floor here!
A lengthy, vicious rapier has been dropped here!
A bloodstained, menacing sabre lies at your feet!
*Zedar the loo-roll hunk warlock says "wow".
*A male voice in the distance shouts "Dara just hit a pinata and its STACKED with weaponry. Great job!".
*A male voice in the distance shouts "weapons in the hut, try GET BEST WEAPON". |
|
Dara and Winnie found themselves fighting the thief together, before Dara got ambushed by a ram and had to flee (said ram was subsequently defeated by Winnie). Winnie picked a fight against an armed and dangerous Chucky doll, whilst Zedar started making his way through the keep. Croakerjr had to flee from something, and spent a moment resting up in the inn. Winnie also popped in herself for some respite, giving Croakerjr a free weapon.
At this point, Crazyfool needed to go, leaving the mortals to their own devices.

== IV - Gremlins ==
Dianne the championne says: At this point, Dara was fighting some apes in the Pagoda (Groggy was nearby, presumably also fighting some apes), Zedar had made it to the fourth floor of the keep, and Karjala ventured into the cottage cellar – but was greeted by a swarm of gremlins. She shouted for help but had to flee, whilst Winnie ventured down to assist her. Winnie managed to take down most of those magical gremlins, when, out of nowhere, Child4 returned, now armed with a club, once again seeking to kick Winnie whilst she was down. Dara arrived, but Child4 fled, and Winnie was in no shape to pursue the enragement child (who was probably out to cause further pain later on). By now, Zedar had vanquished the unspeakable horrors inhabiting the Keep, and had deposited Valetant at the hut.
As Winnie rested up, fought sk1, and then got some more sleep, Karjala ventured back down into the cellar, but the door to the coal bunker had been opened – unleashing the swarm of gremlins within. The horde kept growing and growing, almost drowning her in a torrent of marketable impish monsters – until Zedar arrived to stem the tide. Dara arrived as well, and so Zedar and Dara ventured into the coal bunker together, to eliminate the remaining gremlins, before claiming the coal.
== V - Memento Mori ==
Dianne the championne says: Around this point, Heiach arrived, and we noticed a new face, Bucky, who was content to stay in the tearoom and listen to the chaos unfolding outside.
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend exclaims: WAIT WHAT LOOK AT THAT!!! UPSTANDING CITIZEN [[Croakerjr]] HAS JUST BEEN KILLED BY [[Ape10]]!!! [[Like and Subscribe]] FOR MORE EXCLUSIVE NEWS!!!
Dianne the championne says: Zedar and Winnie fought Ape10 in the swamp, whom was now armed with Croakerjr’s scimitar – it fled, but Zedar finished it off. Winnie rested up, then decided to fight the Bog Wight, who blinded Winnie, but put itself to sleep. By now, things had gotten particularly eventful; Heiach appointed Zedar to the role of Spooky-General, Karjala found herself fighting a nanny goat with her bare hands (accidentally crippled herself several times in the process) along with a beholder, Dara ventured up the northern mountain, Groggy was doing something, and Winnie got distracted by a hedgehog who wanted a guided tour around the pagoda and the graveyard and the pagoda again and the graveyard again.
Zedar had better things to be doing, navigating the Nessie-infested seas, with some tasty cargo in hand, when

In the distance, you hear a bell toll.
A zombie resembling Zedar the loo-roll hunk, spooky-general warlock (zombie10) stands in your way! |

Dianne the championne says: 47 minutes in, two deaths, and things would only get worse.
== VI - Scream ==
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress has just arrived.
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: FFFFFFLLLLLEEEEEEEEXXXXXXIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGGTTTTTOOOOOOONNNNNNNNN!!
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress waves, at Dianne the championne and at Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend.
Dianne the championne glares at Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress.
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: OH HELLO DIANNE AND ALSO SPAMTON.
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: FLEXINGTON HAS ARRIVED TO HELP!
Dianne the championne mutters something under her breath.
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend cackles.

== VII - The Descent ==
Dianne the championne says: Now, as I was saying, we had just seen our first casualties of the run.
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: WHO CARES? NO TIME FOR MOURNING! THE PLAYERS, THEY YEARN FOR THE MINES!!!!
Dianne the championne says: ...yes, looks like they do. Karjala ventured in first, and took down the canary, suffering an emotional scar which would never heal in the process.
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: ALSO ROAMER ARRIVED AT AROUND THIS TIME AND IF THE PAGODA WASN’T BAD ENOUGH ALREADY THE GIANTS OPENED AS WELL!!!! ALSO ANOTHER ZEDAR ARRIVED.
Dianne the championne says: Yes, yes, that did happen.
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: WAIT WHAT IT DID FLEXINGTON WASN’T PAYING ATTENTION BUT LOOK LOOOK THE PLAYERS THEY’RE ENTERING THE MINES!!! DARA AND NEW ZEDAR AND ALSO GROGGY THEY YEARN FOR THE MINES THEY’RE ENTERING THE MINES!!!
Dianne the championne says: Of course, the mines were roughly the same as usual, but, there was a surprise waiting for them at the end…
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: PUMPKIN REALM! BOTTOM TEXT!
Dianne the championne says: And so, the three of them ventured down into the pumpkin realm, smashing pumpkins left and right, as per usual...

Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: THE CHILDREN!! THEY TOO YEARN FOR THE MINES!!!
Dianne the championne says: Yes, the uncouth children were in the pumpkin realm too, and were wreaking havoc there as well. In the meantime, a new Dara ventured into the land. Winnie realized that some backup was needed down in those pumpkin-spattered depths, and was venturing into the mines as well, crossing the threshold of the pumpkin realm,

Dianne the championne says: Yes, the pumpkins were now armed with Valetant, and had plenty of time to regain their strength given what state Winnie was in! Granted, she didn’t give them any more points to power them up further because she fled so late, but-
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: AND HEIACH FORCE-FED WINNIE SEVERAL WAFERS AND SO WINNIE VENTURED OUT INTO THE LAND AND WENT DOWN INTO THE MINE SHE YEARNS FOR AND INTO THE REALM AND GRABBED A FOIL AND SLEPT FOR A BIT AND THEN CHARGED IN TO THE SURLIES AND TRIED TO NAB VALETANT FROM THEM BEFORE FIGHTING THEM BUT THAT PICKPOCKETING FAILED AND WAS IN COMBAT WITH THEM AND EVENTUALLY BOOM SURLY PUMPKIN9 WENT DOWN AND THEN GALANDRA ARRIVED AND THEN THE OTHER TWO SURLIES DIED TOO AND AT THE SAME TIME IT SOUNDS LIKE GROGGY WAS IN THE GOBLIN LAIR AND HAD JUST FOUND ORC10 IN THE GOBLIN LAIR BUT NOW VALETANT WHO WAS NOW AUSTRALIAN COULD BE RECLAIMED BY WINNIE.

== VIII - The House Of The Dead ==
Dianne the championne says: All the mortals were now invisible.
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: UNDERSTANDABLE!!!
Dianne the championne says: and if the invisibility wasn’t confusing enough,
Quote:
| Evil wood.
You are wandering around in among the hideously deformed oaks of an evil wood. To the north and east runs a river, and west is a rough pasture. The wood gets thicker to the south, where it continues in an almost impenetrable darkness… Standing almost hidden amongst the trees, you notice a dark foreboding Gothic mansion. Strangely, this house does not give the impression of permanence, but instead seems almost ethereal and fleeting in its existence. Something in the back of your mind tells you that entering the porch of this house may be almost the point of no return.
*(Winnie the latext temptress sorceress) shouts "anyone entered the gothic mansion yet?".
*(Zedar the loo-roll hunk, spooky-general swordsman) shouts "well as a side effect, i learned giants and pagoda this reset, long overdue".

*A male voice in the distance shouts "why is there a mobile called Renfield?". |

Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend appears to be trying to encourage the mortals to find something for him within the mansion basement.
Dianne the championne says: Nobody is going to understand that anyway.
Dianne the championne says: Winnie entered the mansion, and was followed closely by Galandra (who wasn’t invisible). They bumped into Renfield, and battled him – he eventually fled, but Galandra chased him down and finished him off. Yet, time was ticking!

Dianne the championne says: Things were slightly complicated by Zedar, whom normally works on the WH-ing, no longer having access to magic – and moreso by certain mobs having completely different names this reset.
Dianne the championne says: Winnie went back into the graveyard to slay the ghoul, whilst Midfields and Galandra did some of the WH-ing, finding that many of the mobs in the formal garden had been overlooked – and went to slay them.
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: GALANDRA FOUGHT THE STAG AND MOSTLY KILLED IT BUT HAD TO FLEE FROM IT BUT SHE RETURNED AND KILLED IT PROPERLY BUT STILL THERE WAS THE DOVE AND THE PIGS AND THE SWANS AND MAYBE A FEW BEES AS WELL AND PRESUMABLY ALL OF THEM WERE BEING DEALT WITH BUT ALSO

== X - Halloween Ends ==
Dianne the championne says: Well, that was anticlimactic. The bash ended with 19 mobs still alive, and with four casualties. Croakerjr fell to Ape10, Zedar got HAWUMPHed, whilst Dara and Groggy got eliminated by a swarm of pumpkins, children, and toys.
Spamton the dragonfly-slaying legend exclaims: HOLY [[Cungadero]] THAT WAS A LOT OF [Total Jackass stunts]!
Dianne the championne says: Perhaps these remarks from the post-bash chat might help summarize matters.
Quote:
| Heiach the chimerical wizard says "so many dead".
Winnie the necromancess says "towards the end I was just more overwhelmed than anything else".
Groggy the protector says "i don't think giants opened back in the day".
Galandra the necromancess says "The giants certainly didn't help matters any.".
Zedar the hero says "I learned how to navigate pagoda a bit better, and found the goblin that carries the THS".
Zedar the hero says "so not a write-off for me".
Groggy the protector says "i look forward to the write up - pick the bones out of that".
Winnie the necromancess says "I've completely forgotten what I was doing for most of that bash".
Zedar the hero says "my death was my own fault, I was hasty at the dragon, trying to save time. s'always been my downfall".
Zedar the hero says "its been a interesting bash. 20 SV quite the accomplisment there".
Heiach the chimerical wizard says "you had some help too".
Groggy the protector says "especially with pag and giants open".
Heiach the chimerical wizard says "all of the hydras and pixies had unrelated accidents".
Zedar the hero asks "the help was 4 SK kills, an extension, and a bunch of free weapons. Unless I missed some?".
Zedar the hero says "I definitely missed some :)".
Winnie the necromancess says "the mass invis".
Zedar the hero nods.
Zedar the hero says "and the dotes".
Heiach the chimerical wizard says "and you still lost, it was HARD". |

Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: THOSE ARE TOO MANY WORDS SO HERE’S AN EYEWITNESS STATEMENT!!!!

Dianne the championne says: Excuse us, Spamton? I did most of the work on this bash report! Even Flexington here did more than you did (even if her contributions were… not the best).
Flexington the dragonfly-slaying, loud sorceress shouts: FLEXINGTON HELPED!!!
Dianne the championne asks: And I still don’t see how this was supposed to-

Actually, Galandra didn't push it off a ledge. Galandra knew just where the ledge was, and knew it was in an area that floods. The flood disposed of it.
But anyway, the rest of the report seems pretty accurate from what I can tell. It matches the notes taken during the bash by Dara and Galandra, and mentions a lot of things that they missed. Overall, a good writeup.
